as a national burglar alarm around

national coast patrol commission, who
spoke at the Pan-American Aeronau-
tics exposition here.
This country faces an immediate
danger" he said. "No appreciable ad-
ditton can be made to our army or
navy in time to meet it. Is there
any possible recourse?"
YES"
"What?"
Answering his own question Admir-
al Peary outlined a plan submitted to
President Wilson by the commission,
in part as follows:
Wants Thousand HydroairpIanes.
Zone thousand hydroairplanes along
our Atlantic coast will double the eff
ficiency of our naval defense and in
crease the value of our coast pro-
lection 200 to 800 per cent.
THE present key to our prepared
ness in this line is numerous fly
ing personnel-thousands and thous-
ands and thousands of courageous
young men capable of handling air
planes as the expert chauffeur han
dies his car. We cannot have too
many of these too soon.
"The present foreign practice is to
give some strong, broad executive,
full and undivided control in this field.
If this can be done hese and the train
ing of $500 aviators within six
months, and 5000 Within year, made
mandatory, it will be of the greatest
value -
