LAST OBSTACLE TO
BONDS IS REMOVED

The last obstacle which will impede
the progress of the million and half
bond issue for the improvement Of
highways in Imperial county was re
moved yesterday when the Board of
accepted the designations
of the members of the Highway
Commission.
"Within the next few days petitions
for l bond election will be in circula
tion in every part of the county said
f. +. Place, secretary of the VALLEY
Chamber of Commerce.
"These petitions will be placed in
places and, as it is neces-
sary to have only 1000 signature
affixed, there is little doubt that the
petitions will not remain in circulation
long before that number is secured.
"If the highways are constructed
under state specifications, the state
contributes one-third of the bond is
sue, which will increase the sum to be
expended for good roads to more
than S2,OO0.OO0.
"In addition to this, if the state
specifications are adhered to, the state
contributes one-half of the upkeep
maintenance of the roads"
Imperial Valley press., 1915-06-08

According to calculations by per-
sons conversant with the cost of road
construction, more than 200 miles OF
will have been constructed
with the expenditure of the money
from the bond issue.

Flags Of France.

France had numerous national flags
before it adopted the tricolor. Although
its present banner is not particularly
artistic, it's predecessors ranked among
the most beautiful flags in the world.
The first French flag was extremely
quaint. 1t consisted of Il blue hood
hung on a cross bar and represented
the cloak Of st. Martin, Il saint great
~ reverenced by the French, and years
ago his helmet was carried in their
wars to inspire the soldiers. The Sec
ond French flag was a beautiful banner
OF red, with its loose end cut into three
tongues resembling flames, between
each Of which was Il green tassel.
Some picturesque banners were ut one
time carried by the French warriors
before the tricOlor waved over the
French battletields. There was the sky
blue cavalry standard with the golden
sun Of Louis XIV, the white and gold
banner of Joan of Arc, magniticently
embroidered with the Madonna, angels
and lilies, and the famous old banner
OF the city of Paris. with it's white
ship on Il blood red field. il.

however, which combines the th,on
popular colors of France, is comparo-

adopted about 1904. A decree was is
sued which gave to all flags Il knot Of

and later the red, white and blue de-
sign was chosen for the national flag.

Built Shechem.' The first step was
to establish Il capital to which Israel
could resort i'll need. Jeroboaln select
ed a city that was centrally situated
within the borders Of Ephraim,
which was the strongest of the eleven
revolving tribes. He made himself
more secure by strengthening the Dor
der fortress town Of Penuel, which
was on the east Of the Jordan by the
river Jahbok and in the territory of
Cad. After he had guarded himself
against any attacks from abroad he
turned his attention to the religious
and moral welfare of the people. He
had to face Il serious problem. Jeru-
salem Was the seat of the temple, and
this noble structure appealed to the
| best Instincts of all the tribes. 1t was
the central place Of worship and it had
historic associations which were preci-
GUS.
Jeroboam realized that when the ex-
element OF revolt passed aWay and
settled times returned. "the heart of
this people would turn to the house
of Jehovah, and they would want to
come here to worship. In that event
a change Of mind might take place and
the restless tribes determine to for
swear allegiance to him and go again
to RehoboAm. king of Judah.' 1t was
thus very evident to JerobDam that
the only course open to him By which
he could prevent Il probable outbreak
and hold the loyalty of the tribes was
to establish s~anctuaricS in his own

TIME value of air craft as military
weapons has now been fully
demonstrated. The wal in Eu.
rope has taught us the lesson
The public has become so accustomed
to their operations in connection With
land operations that they are now re-
garded as commonplace. They are as
much taken for granted as horse and
artillery.
There Is no indication. however, that
any Of the belligerents has as yet real
led the full possibilities of air craft in
connection with naval operations. This
fact Is probably due in part to the pecu-
liar situation existing between the two
chief naval powers at war, England
and Germany, whose forces have been
Kept apart by eason of the overwhelm-
Ing superiority of the British fleet as
regards numbers.
experiments and studies made in this
country have satisfied American naval
officers concerned with the DEVELOPMENT
OF aviation that air craft are destined to
play a much more important part in
connection with naval warfare than has
yet been assigned to them by the bel
ugerents in the present war. The avi-
ALTON forces Of the United States navy
are now In process Of development to-
ward an objective which in its COM
pleteness and scope far surpasses any
thing yet achieved by any Of the forces
at war. Though the United States
navy, like the army, is notably def
c1ent In the material and personnel of
aviation, there is reason to believe that
the theory Of military aviation, partic-
ularly IN relation to naval operations,
Is being more highly developed in this
country than in Europe.
To Operate With Fleet.
The first objective of the navy in
building up an aviation corps which
snail be capable Of doing what Amer
lean officers demand is an %aeroplane
Which can operate with the fleet. The
second demand is that this %aeroplane
snail be capable Of taking command
OF the air once it begins operations.
Ihat is. the navy is now trying to
lead American air craft manufacturers
TO the construction Of an aeroplane
with so powerful an engine as to Der
NIT OF high speed and large radius Of
action, so reliable as to make long Sis
tanned operations a probability instead
OF merely a possibility and so well
armed that it can brush aside enemy
air craft which may attempt to inter
fere with its operations.
1t is n Of the paradoxes of the de.
velopment of aviation that when the
aeroplane first appeared in the world
1t was instantly hailed as an instru-
ment which would revolutionize war
rare, yet not for years was it assigned
to its proper place in the art Of war.
The conflict in Europe has demonstrate
ed that air craft have a military value
much greater than was suspected by
military men generally, yet it has also
been proved that the %aeroplane must
take its place as an auxiliary arm and
must not be regarded as changing in
any way the basic rules or conditions
Of warfare.
The opposing commanders in Europe

have found the air scout of immense
the enemy. They have also found that
the first result of the use of air craft
has been partly negative. in that theil
relatively equal employment by both
sides has rendered impossible move
ments Of large bodies of troops and
surprise attacks in force.
This, American officers declare. is the
great lesson of the war in relation to
air craft. proving that the aeroplane is
at most but an auxiliary which must
be used only in accord with the same
principles that govern the use Of cav
airy or other mobile forces SEM out in
advance of the main c%ontending bodies.
advantage OF air craft will be gained
only by that commander who has at
his disposal an air force which is not
only able to take the air and scout. but
which can also drive from the air the
enemy's scout and prevent him from
obtaining the information he desires.
In other words. under modern conli-
tions supremacy in the air is essential
to complete success on land and sea,
and air craft must %henceforth be re-
garded in the light of forces rather
than as mere messengers.
Improvement In Machines.
1t is on this theory that the navy is
seeking to develop its aviation opera
tons, now under the direction of Cap
tain Mark l.. Bristol. who holds the
new post Of director of naval aeronau-
tics. And that is why Captain Bristol
is at present concentrating all his eff
forts upon securing the construction in
his country Of acroplanes which shall
fulfill the military requirements fore
seen for such craft.
An order for aeroplanes distributed
among American manufacturers re-

type of a%eroplanes built in America,
and it is confidently believed that UNI

powerful and more efficient machine
rapid Improvement will he noted in
aeroplane design. There is no doubt
at the navy department that important
work awaits the improved machine as
soon as it can be developed.
The grand plan under which this
initial work of design Improvement IS
being done calls for making air craft
an integral part of fleet organization
quite as much as the existing scouts,
d~estroyers and submarines. This is
where the American theory differs
from III has been done in Eulunc
during the Il There the air craft
have beer treated as more or less Of
incidental factors rather than as a
part OF naval organization. The plans
developed by Captain Bristol call fo,
the presence of two or more aero
planes Oh board each battloShip of the
fleet. so that when Il capital engage
ment with the enemy is imminent an

Will spread on over Il fam shaped

The first task of Il battle fleet. of

this as their primary function as aids

were created. Their secondary func-
ton was the sweeping away of similar
cratt sent out by the enemy. The
;eroplane is to extend this function
into the air, its first purpose being to
