AN official telegram from Berlin

came necessary. Orders had been
given to spare the cathedral.
IF 1t should prove true that during

mission until the end of the war, so
far as communication with Germany

In making its reply to Secretary

that parts of the broken machinery

to repair the broken parts In America

CLAUDE GRAHAME-wHTTE.

ten years henceI This Is what those
will think who have studied the vast
powers of perfected air craft when
available In large numbers for the pur.
poses of war.
In ten years the great nations would
have had air fleets, not tentative and
experimental, but highly organized and
ready to. prove-in a way that could
not be gainsaid-the value OF the flying
machine not only as a scout, but as a
weapon for destruction and offense.
I'm ten years. had the war come
then, the first battle would have been
In the air, the rival flying fleets con
tending for that supremacy which
would have been all important and
would have enabled a subsequent blow
by land or sea to be delivered with O
crushing force, unhampered either by
attacks or spying from above.
"But at present fighting aircraft are
experimental. Armed machines that
are In existence carry only the ligh.est
of guns. Numerically the air fleets are
by no means strong-not strong. that is
to say, for the ravages OF a great cam.
paign. Germany. which has been build
ing war craft with the utmost speed.
Is reckoned to have about 1000 ma
chimes for active service.
"The French air corps cannot com
pare with this, either in numbers or In
the condition Of its machines. Russia
Is estimated to have 300 war craft,
Austria, roughly. 100 and Britain-for
military purposes-about a similar
number. Instead OF being launched
against each other In any preliminary
combat, these air corps will be hus-
banded and used with care, their prime
value lying In their work as scouts.
Nothing Is more contradictory.
nothing more bewildering, than the
reports or spies or OF those who are
sent out to reconnoiter. Some locate
army corps where they have e
only detachments; others see only de
tachments where they ought to have
seen army corps.
But that phase Is ended; the fog
of war has gone. The use OF the
air scout must make a vital difference
In the plans Of the contending armies.
Although served by a comparatively
small number Of machines, both France
and Germany should know In this cam
paign exactly what positions the enc
my Is taking up. And this should spell
a q~uickening Of all movements. should
tend to the dealing OF decisive. crush
ing blows.
There will be less room for strategy
and f1nesse. seeing that any shifting
or Encouragement Of men will be OBJ
served and noted within a few hours
Of its making.
"Of course they will not be infallible
There may be movements of troops
that they will miss. But all main
bodies, all vital positions. should be
detected inevitably.
"Bombs certainly will be dropped
from airships and a~eroplanes; already
there have been u~nimportant raids
Mechanism for releasing a bomb from

tested. and the missiles themselves
are carried In q convenient releasing

speedy vengeance on the Germans for
their exploit In sinking three British

1t Is suggested that while England

as have the Germans they have yet
failed to demonstrate their worth.
