DIRIGIBLES. MAY BECOME PART OF
 AMERICAN NAVY

Washington, D. C., Nov. 26.-Dfrigi- bles are to be used by the United States Navy if favorable action is taken on the recommendations of a board of naval officers headed by Cap tain Washington L. Chambers. An ad- equa,te divisional organization to han dle aviation matters also is recom- mended by the board.
 These recomm endations will be placed before Secretary Daniels within the next few rays A brief reference to them is made in the annual report on aviation made public Monday.
 The principal obstacle to an ade- quate development of the aeronauticaI branch of the service remains as ever the inability to obtain sufficient ap- propriatione. Up to this time practi- cal1y all of the departmental work in this branch of the service has been handled by Captain Chambers alone. and in the detail of officers as well as i'll obtaining appropriations for the purchase of machines this part of the naval establishment has suffered from subordination to the requirements of the established bureaus of the depart ment-
 Whether the ambitious program re- ferred to in the annual report can be carried through at a time when econ omy is the shibboleth of the depart ment seems doubtful.
 In the last year, however, the work of the naval aviators has produced i'm

Committees have been appointed in five states by the Sons of the Revolu- ton to prepare plans for an immense pflgrima ge from Philadelphia, to Cam bridge, Mass, in nemora tion of the march pursued by General George Washington after the Continental con- greas had given him supreme com mand of the American forces in 1775.

Austria a Rope of Sand.

The chief point of disturbance in the
European situation is Austria Hun
gary. Her government has been al
most as bad as that of Turkey. She
is at least fifty years behind this new
age of freedom and democracy and is
depending on the old methods of re-
preston and force. She is made up
of discordant races and is a rope of
sand. If she ever got into a war with
| the allies the prediction is freely made
by those who have studied the situa-
| ton that she would be beaten as was
| the Moslems: that thousands of her
| own subjects would turn against her;
| that whole provinces would revolt and
| that the allies could recruit their ar
mics in the territories of the enemy
just as they have done in Turkey.
The bone of contention between Aus
tria and Servia is port on the Adriat-
ic Rather a small fire TO kindle so
great matter as general European
war! Servia has long dreamed of
seaport, and now that she has won her
fight in Albania. believes she has fairly
earned it. Austria will not permit her
to take the fruits of her victory. Back
of this is the jealousy of the dual mon
archy against the new power that has
risen in the Balkans.
Austria had regarded this territory
as ultimately her own. Though forbid
den by the Berlin agreement. she had
already taken Bosnia and Herzegovina.
In all this affair Austria's attitude has
been almost as contemplate as that of
Turkey.

When the Balkan states
went after the terrible
Turk the average wiseacre predicted
that the terrible one would wipe
them out as he had previously drubbed
Greece. Also the wiseacre, who bears
much the same relation to martial mat
tiers as the campaign prophet and
know-it-all does to politics. thought
the Balkan contiagration would be To-
cal and could not by any possibility
spread to other sections of Europe But
when the war wind blows the flames
sometimes get out of the control of the
diplomatic fire departments. and the
first thing any one knows whole con-
tinent is in flames.
OF course all this talk of a general
European conflict may be in the nature
OF revenge on the part of the war
correspondents. The treatment of these
gentlemen has been shameful Ingrat-
itude and outrages are but mild terms
when applied to it. Here they had
been boosting in season and out of sea-
son for Balkan war; and when it
came they were barred from the front
by the allies, and when one English
scribe got too near on the Moslem side
the Turks fired a volley at him.
What way is that to treat war cor
respondent? Had it not been for the
inaccuracy of Turkish craftsmanship,
the same thing that has preserved the
Bulgars, that correspondent might now
be writing dispatches from hotter
place than Turkey. AS it was, only his
dignity was wounded, though he had
the scare of his life and henceforth
will possess keener appreciation OF
what war really means When man
is shot at by footpad it gives him a
new experience and when he is shot
at by regiment the sensation is raised
to the nth power
Correspondents Getting Even.
After such indignities who can blame
the war correspondents for trying to
get even? If they could not go to the
front in the Balkans after all they
nad done to bring on the row as Jour
neymen prophets, then they would be-
gin predicting general European war
If they could not write thrilling ac-
counts of battles from fifty miles in
the rear they could at least put over
some thrillers in the shape of future
battles between the triple alliance and |
the triple entente. BY the way, do not |
pronounce the word like it looks Call
it ontonty and say it as if you had a hot |
potato in your mouth. If this I'M
pieasantness does nothing else it is GO
ing to teach some of us how to pro-
nounce. Since it started there has been
more of slaughter of Turkish pro-
nunciations than of Turkish soldiers.
The whole world has been at it.
OntoDty Is not Turkish word.
