would. ....... -.~5

situation at Reservoir No. 4, and when
he has the informauon he is seeking

 CRUDE, SAYS FORD

AerOplanes with roomy upholstered bodies, windshields and all the com forts of the modern motor car. with the additional convenience of the wireless telegraph, are now in use in Europe, Captain Archibald B. Ford, of the Royal Flying Corps, Great Britain. says. Captain Ford, who is on leave of absence from the British army, is a visitor in Detroit. Captain Ford has been in the aerial service of his country since the begin ming of the war His visit to the United States is unofficial, but is in the interest of aircraft.
 American aeroplanes are crude in comparison with many of the planes in use in Europe at present" said he. , "The rush with which your American factories are working to turn out machines for the various warning na- tions has not added to the excellence of their work. I am afraid much of the work is poor. The need is not l only more for more powerful, sturdier I motors, but for improved types of 1 planes as we'll
 Captain Ford visited Henry B. Joy l, president of the Packard Motor Car | Company and director of the Aero Club of America, and went with him to see the Packard aviation field near
 Mt. Clemens, Mich. He said that his interest in the aeroplane is scientific
 and not commercial.
 | q am in hope that America will do
 much toward the development of safe, durable, comfortable air machines, , when your manufacturers begin to really try to do this,'' said he The
 step the Packard Company has made toward perfecting the twelve cylinder
 motor and adapting it for aeroplane
 use indicates that this will be before
 very long,
 Captain Ford is classed as a skilled | observer His work consisted of | flying at a height of 10000 feet over German and Austrian lines, making
 maps and signalling by wireless to the | British gunners twelve or fifteen miles away He says the work of
 skilled observers is so accurate that by following their signals, gunners are
 enabled to explode shells in the en-
 emy's trenches within five attempts
