WILL FIGHT ABOVE CLOUDS.
Experts Believe Future Wars VIII Be
Largely Decided by Conflicts in
tine Air.

Control of the seas has been the
dominant factor in this war. Brit
aims naval supremacy gives her a
grip upon the de6tinieS Of all nations
Claude Graham White and Harry
Harper, writing I'm the FOrtnightly
Review upon Two Years OF Aerial
War" predict that in coming wars the
control of the air will be even more
essential than control of the seas.
In the push" or the allies OF the
western front TIM superiority or their
air reconnaissance gives them great
advantage. However, 1T il the grow
ing effectiveness of the airplane as a
fighting machine, carrying death and
destruction to the enemy, that is
the most significant development Of
the war Messrs- White and Harper
predict that in future wars it will ~

chimes for destroying hostile craft, or
for laying waste land positions, which
will be the forefront" the scouting

In all defensive plans the United
States has placed great reliance on
it's isolation. Our isolation may al
ways have it in some measure Of pro-
lection, but our long coast line, fac

the future the attacks will To- led by
huge airplanes having "a speed or ~
miles an hour or more. Nations may
GO down to defeat by aircraft attack
which in a few hours could hopeless

defend itself in the air. tt l. argued
that Great Britain, if she IL TO main
tain her empire, must match by con-
troll OF the air the control she now
has OF the seas. But what Of the

A Bit Of Unsolicited Publicity.

To the Editor:
Little did / expect, four or five
months ago when in signing the or
der for house lighting plant, that
through that signature, A was t0 ~
given enough publicity to permit, All
% desired, my announcement a. .
candidate for some public Office.
My plant came and was installed
to my entire satisfaction by the mid
die of August This plant being
about the third of it, kind in tn
state and one of the first in this
vicinity, + had expected some inqui-
ries as to its merits and. ETC., but
soon quite a few inquiries as to its
demerits came in-first from neigh
bors and then distant calls from other
sections OF the county The repre-
sentative, who sold the plant called
as to the reported failure or its oper-
alton. TO all Of this T replied in the
negative, telling of the satisfaction
the plant was giving and that my
lanterns and lamps had not been got
ten out since its installation.
Those making the inquiries usually
explained their cali a. the result "a
a visit paid them by the representa-
tive of an acetylene gas company,
saying this representative had given
them the information as to the fail
ure of my electric plant The infor-
nation, it seemed, had been given out
quite freely not only in distant places
but to neighboTs and friends in the
near vicinity.
This wholesale publicity was ex-
planned, and 1 hoped put to an end.
Only week or two ago, when a
gentleman introducing himself a. be-
linz from New Windsor, and repre-
senting some "a concern, called at
my place and asked to see the Delco
Electric Lighting Plant in my home
explaining for his reason that he was
considering taking up this line OF
lighting himself and wanted to see
one of these plants in operation. Af-
ter few preliminary words, re-
marked a. To the misrepresenting Of
this particular plant by representa-
tive of some gas company and was
told that this was done to sell.
The plant was shown and put in
operation and from a few compli-
mentary words this representative
gave a. it, simplicity and complete
ness T believe I shall now be left to
rest and enjoy the thing l bought.
Yours very truly,

Dun's Review

New York, Jan. 26.-Dun's Review to-
morrow will say:
After a natural lull, the momentum OF
business increases, though there is no
repetition of the feverish buying recent
ly witnessed. Both domestic and foreign
requirements, Notwithstanding previous
heavy purchases, remain extensive, but
competitive bidding has largely subsidized
and the general situation is clearly more
wholesome Doubts regarding future sup
plies and prices cause hesitancy in many
quarters and some buyers who are cover
ed well ahead hold off in anticipation of
concessions, yet where needs are press
ing the element of cost is still little con-
sdered and premiums continue effective
if special advantages on shipments are
nossible. Delivery problems, however do
not appreciably lessen and storms ana
floods in some sections have added to the
difficulties of producing and transporting
interests. Materials and merchandise
In many Instances proceeded slowly to
points of destination and in some cases
the retarded freight movements influ-
ence prices, which tend mainly upward,
43 advances and 10 declines.
