day; too, from the Japanese"
PembertOn-Billings has raised such
tumult conversationally, in England
about the air service that his ideas
or how great and extensive the air
service should be made are of interest.
His idea is to have the air ser
vice the greatest arm of the British
forces. He believes that it can be
made more powerful than any navy.
i contemplate a force of 10000
aeroplanes soon, and force of 25O,-
600 within the next ten years. In
general there ought to be five diff
1erent kinds Of aeroplanes First
there will be a scout, small, and very
fast. Another will be a heavier ma.
chine, armored, for bomb throwing.
carrying, perhaps, one bomb
THE third sort will be a cheap an !
large machine, made in vast quanti-
ties, for ordinary battle purposes
A transport aeroplane will ranl,
next in Importance. 1t will be capable
Of carrying from Is to 25 men from
enc part of a battle line to another,
and also Of moving guns, ammunition
and other supplies; it will probably
| have five or six decks" Such a ma,
chine would rank as the army motor
bus
There are going to be huge pattle-
planes in the future that will carry
batteries Of perhaps four-five-:nch
guns Or three six-inch guns with fire
control like battleships and with a
CO plain and crew"
Get your army and your navy, too,
into the sky. Make your emmy come
| into the esky to fight Move your
troops in the sky; feed them in the
sky; let them live in the sky. Just
IS Napoleon used to force his opDon-
ents to give battle on fields which he
himself had selected, so let the gen.
erals Of the war-to-be force their en-
emles to come up into the sky to meet
them
This is the philosophy of Pember-

hands would be trained and they
would be ready to take up flying

From details, the new member of
parliament passed again to generalit-
les. He put forth the old argument
that the more terrible war becomes,
owing to improvements in the meth
DDS Of killing, the less likely the world
would be to see war.
"War can be wiped out absolutely"
he declaren theoretically. "by the
other over night, and having such
tons with hundred thousand aero
planes each wouldn't dare to fight
each other. One could wipe out the
other over night, and, faving such
terrible chances, no nations would
wish to begin war. I prophesy that,
within the next ten years, it will be
possible for nations to use at least
100000 aeroplanes in warfare War is
developing in that direction''
