AVIATION'S DEBT
TO THE BIG WAR
Development of Flying Apparatus,
Forced by Military Needs of
Powers, Already Promises Aid
to Arts of Peace

WHEN "Langley's Folly" fell into the Poto.
w mac America laughed. Long after the in
ventor died of broken heart another man
fitted up the old frame with a modern engine
and made a successful fight. The Folly
was perfectly good aeroplane, and the world
that Knocked the inventor to his grave had to
wait years before it could learn how to fly.
However, 1t was only ten years after Langley
was called charlatan on the floor of Congress
that aeroplanes had so far revolutionized the
art of war as to confine the tremendously i'm.
portant factor of surprise attacks in force to
the most limited areas of action.
Swarms of aeroplanes hover over the front,
and few of them are shot down relatively to
the number engaged. No great body of troops
can be transported from one point to another
behind enemy lines without due observation
being made from the clouds and the facts
promptly reported. Never in the history Of
war has spying been so easy so efficient and
so safe. 1t is said that the casualties of the
air corps of the various armies are fewer than
those of any other service.

The Hon. Lemuel Ely Quigg earnestly, almost
tearfuly, asserts that it is reflection on Justice
Hughes integrity to urge his nomination for
President in view of the fact that Mr. Hughes
has said that he is not a candidate. But in
urging the nomination of Colonel Roosevelt isn't
the Hon. Quigg rejecting the integrity of an
other who has said that he is not a candI-
date? or is the integrity of Colonel Roosevelt of
a different brand from that of Justice Hughes3-

WAR ON HIGH SEAS
AS HELD BY BRITAIN
Note Dated March 20, 1916,
Regarded as Applicable to
Recent U-Boat Raid.
WAS REPLY YTOU.S. PROTEST

The fact that Sir Cecil Arthur Spring
Rice the British ambassador, in note
to Secretary Lansing of the State De-
partment March 20, 1916, informed the
United States government in behalf of
Great Britain that a claim Ito distin-
guish between different parts of the high
seas caused surprises ito his majesty's
government, who are unaware OF the eX-
istence of any rules or principles of in
ternational law which render belligerent
operations which are legitimate in one
part of the high seas illegitimate in
another" is believed here destined to
play an important part in Germany's sub
marine warfare off the New England
coast.
This statement was made to the
United States government in response
to a protest by Secretary Lansing to
the British ambassador December Is.
1915, to the effect that the United
States government has always re-
cruisers patrolling American coasts in
close proximity to the territorial wa
ters of the United States. and making
the neighborhood station for their
observations as inconsistent with the
treatment TO be expected from the
naval vessels of friendly power in
time of war, and has maintained that
the consequent menace of such pro-
ceedings to the freedom of American
commerce is veXatiouS and uncourteouS

REAR ADMIRAL F. A. COOK,
U. S. NAVY, RETIRED, DIES
One of Heroes of Spanish War and
Also Participated in the
Civil War.

Rear Admiral Francis A. Cook, U. s..
Spanish war, who had also participated
in the civil war, died suddenly last
night at his home in Northampton.
Mass, where he had resided since his
retirement in September, 1903.
He was native of Massachusetts and
entered the Naval Academy in 1860.
Three years later he was appointed an
ensign and served on the Seminole of
the west gulf blockading squadron and
blockading squadron during the clos
ing years of the civil war.
In 1869 he was assigned to duty at the
Naval Academy as an instructor, and
later served on various vessels of the
Pacific, south Atlantic and north At
lantic stations, following which he had
academy From 1888 until the latter
part of 1885 he was on special duty
with the lighthouse establishment.
After three years service in command
station he came to this city in 1893 and
served for three years as assistant
chief of the bureau of navigation, Navy
Department.
In 1896 he was placed in command of
the armored cruiser Brooklyn, then one
took an active and distinguished part
in the decisive battle at Santiago de
Cuba July 3. 1898. which eliminated in
the destruction of Admiral Cervera's
fleet of Spanish warships

FINAL ARMOR PLATE PLEA.
Chamber of Commerce Brief to Be
Passed on Tomorrow.

p T. Moran, president of the Cham

committee appointed to work to bring
the government armor plant to the
District of Columbia, today called a
meeting of that committee for tomor-
row at noon. Secretary Tom Grant
will submit the brief which he has pre-
pared setting forth the advantages of
the National Capital for the plant and
final plans will be made for its presen-
tation Thursday to the commission of
the Navy Department which is to make
the selection.
Several maps bearing on the advan-
tages of Washington have been pre-
pared, and all arguments which could
be collected have been arranged in
order. The Chamber of Commerce in
tends to rest its case for Washington
on the facts which it will present at

Three Coast Guard Cutters
on the New England Coast
Available for Life SAVING

Whatever measures the coast guard
will take to conserve the life of those
aboard vessels which may be sunk at
sea just beynd the territorial limits OF
the waters of the United States by the
German submarine U-53 and her pos
sible aids will not be dictated from
Washington headquarters at this time
The problem is one to be dealt with by
the commandant of the eastern divi
sion, Senior Capt. Horace B. West. with
station at Boston. in the ordinary
course of coast guard service.
Four coast guard cutters are under
the direction of Division Commandant
West. The Ossipee is stationed at Port
land. Me; the Gresham and Androscog
gin. at Boston and the Acushnet at
Woods Hole These would be avail
able for whatever service would be
required of them under the circum-
stances.
AS part of their humanitarian labor
1t is to be assumed that the rescue of
passengers and crews forced to the
small boats of any ship that might be
held up by the German raiders would
be well within their province. No prob
lem of neutrality, it is considered by
administration officials would be in
volved in the saving of life, even of
combatants. The duty is regarded as
manifest requirement of the coast
guard service, as of any other vessel
in the vicinity that could pick up sur
vivors adrift

Secretary Lansing Reticent.

Secretary Lansing returned to his
desk today after a short Illness, but
refused TO discuss the submarine ques-
ton in any of it's phases. saying that
his reports are not yet sufficient to
warrant any opinion. He was willing
only to say that the British ambassa-
dor has not. Ito his knowledge" pro-
tested as he is said to be about to
do or to have done. against the visit
to Newport Saturday OF the German
submarine U-53. If. however, he should
protest against the activities of Ger
man submarines off the New England
coast. it is regarded as extremely
likely that the United States govern
ment would bring to the attention of
the British government the position
Great Britain took with regard to her
own warShips OFF the Atlantic coast.
as quoted above. After making her
legal post tion known at the time, how
ever. Great Britain withdrew her war
ships farther from the American coast,
as an act of courtesy.
If objection should be made by the
ftivity of German submarines off the
10 American navigation and commerce,
il IS regarded as extremely likely that
Germany. too, would claim that what is
legitimate on one part of the high seas
is legitimate in Another.
For these reasons possibilities of
diplomatic complications over the Ger
man submarine raid along the New
England coast seemed today to point
toward the allies as well as Germany.
