for Naval Airships.

!: WASHINGTON, Sept. 17.-Seeretarv

the question of gasoline engines with
Henry Ford. He has written Mr.. Ford
asking him to call on him in Wash

The pressing need of the naval avia-
ton service at present is a light pow
erful gasoline motor. American mann.
tacturers are so busy making gasoline
motors for use in automobiles that tbov
have not undertaken to any consider
able extent the development of the
type of motor required for aeroplanes.
Mr.. Daniels hopes that Mr.. Ford q
experience in the development of q
light gasoline engine will enable him
to be Of aid to the navy in solving
its present problem.
In view of Mr. Ford s recent pro

and national defence there was much
speculation here today as to how he

take a tablespoonful in glass Of water
before breakfast each morning for a
few days and your kidneys will act
