it were certain London would be the
point of attack; but there are scores
of other points besides London-muni

Generally the German bombs have
done their deadly work before the
British planes can locate and engage
them, and then it is running fight
with all the odds against the pursu.
ers. FH..<
Now look at the French map. It is
only 30 minutes flight to Paris; but
see how the conditions differ.
The second squadron of German
planes take the air.. they are spotted
by the French or British fliers, who
can mobilize at any point on the front
an airplane squadron of equal strength
in less time than it takes to tell 1t.
Then the German planes must cross
the F'ranco-B Belgian trenches and run
the gauntlet Of anti-aircraft guns.
Then for Is, miles they must fly over
French soil with the alarm spread by
telegraph and hundreds of French
planes taking the air from the reserve
airdromes and flying schools all the
way to Paris. =.
A fine chance they .have Of reach

any damage? And a great chance to
