DARING FEAT IN THE AIR

With Plane Wrecked by Shells Observ.
or Climbs Out on Wings.

With the British Armies in France,
via London.-One of the most thrilling
flying episodes of the war was record
ed when the British observer In a two

aged by German shell fire climbed out
on one of the wings and steadied the
airplanc while the pilot brought it safe
ly to earth.
Two young aviators were leading an
offensive patrol when an anti-air craft
high explosive shell burst just behind
the right lower wing Of the airplane.
The machine was completely riddled.
Three OF the stay booms were cut, one
blade Of the propeller was blown away
and all the controls except the elevator
were put out of action. The machine
was further smashed by the broken
propeller blade and became uncOn.
trollable.
Realizing the situation, the observer
did not hesitate. but climbed out three
quarters Of the way on the right wing
tip in order to balance the machine.
The air craft continued to fall in
spirals, however, until 1t was about
1900 feet above the earth. Here the
observer succeeded in balancing 1t, and
the machine glided down evenly. When
about 200 feet from the earth a slight
movement by the man on the wing
caused the machine to spin again, but
the pilot was able to control 1t when
just ten feet above the ground, and the
air craft landed with neither man ill.,

FRANKLIN X. LANE, JR., IN AIRsHIP.
spea -ers at the Congress and Aerial
Defense day." observed at the pam
American aeronautical exposition re.
Gently.
Charles r. witteman spoke of a
scheme whereby the regular White
head auto torpedo may be launched
from an airplane as effectively as it is
launched from a destroyer. Mr.. Witte-
man said:
The aviator approaches his target
from a great distance and high up in
the air, and when say six or seven
miles away he volplanes toward the
water. runs above the surface Of the
water short distance, heading toward
his target and when ready simply pulls
lever. The action Of pulling the lever
releases the torpedo. which is rigidly
held under the airplane, and at the
same time throws back the starting
lever, with the result that the torpedo
falls into the water in the same way
as If it had been dropped from q de-
stroyer.
II received private information from
Europe about year ago that lieu
tenant in the British navy made four
flights over the land into the sea Of
Marmora in an airplane under which a
Whitehead torpedo was secured and
sank four Turkish vessels, using four
teen inch torpedoes weighing 731
pounds EACH
Admiral Peary said an aerial coast
patrol should consist Of 100 stations
along the coast from San Diego to Cape
Flattery and Eastport to Brownsville,
from each Of which aeroplanes would
patrol as far out to sea as 100 miles.

WHAT WILL j. S. Do
IN EVENT OF WAR?
POLICY OF CAMPAIGN IN HOSTILE
tiles CAUSES MUCH SPEC
CLATION.

What steps will the United States
take in the event of war with Ger
many?
That question has been in many
minds and on many lips during the
past two weeks, and now as the spe-
cial session of congress approaches
it is to start next Monday-and as
the conviction grows that congress
will declare that state of war has
existed for some time, it has become
more persistent. Likewise 1t has
been carefully considered at cabinet
meetings during the past two weeks
and by officials of the army and navy
departments.
Among the possibilities are the
opening Of the ports of the United
States to the warships of the Allies,
the opening of the vast credits of the
United States to the Allied govern
ments for their supplies, cooperative
action with the Allied fleets for the
opening and maintenance of steam
ship lane across the Atlantic, and the
guarding of transports to Europe.
U. S. Policy Strictly Defense.
Unless the German aggression
should demand otherwise, it is au-
thoritatively stated the general policy
of the government, contrary to the
popular ideas that the United Staes
tr1 xnr thn Eur
of the Allies, will be strictly along
the lines of national defense. main
tanning safety for it's vessels and pro-
tecting its rights to the seas.
In other words, If war is to come,
as now seems inevitable, 1t will be a
United States war against Germany.
The United States will not join forces
with the Allied governments
although working toward the same
end with them, unless German pol
icy should make such a step neccs-
sary.
Many members Of both houses Of
congress arrived in Washington this
week, and without exception they an
nounced their intention to stand 10y
ally behind the president in recon-
mendations he will make in his adj
dress at the opening of the special
session.
1t is generally conceded that the
situation has reached q point where
all the thought and resources of the
nation must be coordinated and CEN
tered upon defensive measures.
Proceed With Preparations.
Preparations for war have been
going forward this week under the
personal direction of President Will
son. Contracts for "a new destroy
ers. with orders to hasten their COM
pletion, were let this week: q volun-
tary censorship has been clamped on
news, under an agreement between
the state. war and navy departments
FIVE-Standard
and the big press associations, and
when congress cOnvenes next Monday
in extraordinary session the war de-
partment will have completed plans
for the part the army will take in the
scheme of defense.
Whether universal military service
will! be urged, 1t has been impossible
to determine yet. Army officers and
department officials are known to be
virtually unanimous in favor Of inn
mediate adoption of the system. Sec
rotary Baker and President Wilson
have yet to indicate the position they
will take on this big question.
