The bombs fell In country districts
and the damage was negligible.
ssThese airships approached the
coast shortly before midnight the
statement said. 1.-THE sky was over-
cast and thick banks OF rain clouds
made observation difficult. Four of
the airships pursued an erratic
course, being unable to locate their
positions. Our aidpIanes pursued
but the thick clouds enabled the en-
emy planes to escape
'sAirships" probably meant Zcp-

The total casualties have been 220

UNCLE SAM MUST
RAISE $4,000, OOO, 900

ATLANTIC CITY, N. j., Oct. IL
Vast over-subscription of the three
billion dollar second liberty loan was
confidently predicted by Secretary
McAdoo in a speech here recently be-
fore the American Bankers associa-
ton, calling on the bankers to give
the same patriotic support to the new
bond issue that they gave to the first.
Emphasizing the tremendous fin
ancial task ahead of the nation, Mr..
McAdoo pointed out that it would be
and fourteen billion dollars by addi-
tional bond issues before June so,
1918. This will not be easy, he said,
but ii can be done by everybody
banker, business man and men and
women in every walk of life-join-
ing hands to see it through
Fortunately" he added, 1.-The re-
sources of America were never SO am
pie for ourselves and so formidable
for our enemies as now. The combin-
ed resources of the national and state
banks (including trust companies) of
the United States are now $4,000
100000. At the outbreak of the Civil
War, the combined resources of the
banks were estimated to be $780,
900, 900. and yet with these limited
banking resources the Union govern
ment raised $4,000, 100000 by bond
sales, or twice the amount of the
banking resources of the country. Up
on the same basis we should now be
able to raise $73.000.000,000 thru
government loans. / am not suggest
ing that this may be done; ! am only
dra wing a comparison.
Valdez daily prospector., 1917-10-11
NEW AIR FLEETS
TO BE PERMANENT


Every dollar invested in war air
craft is a dollar invested in air trans
portation after the war.
1.-THE United States is on the eve
of a transportation revolution which
will follow the war, and the aircraft
board will probably play as important
a part as the shipping board. The
air plans as far as possible, are being
made to facilitate transformation in
to industrial equipment when peace
comes"
This is the statement of Senator
Morris Shepard, author of the admin
istration aircraft board bill.
Long before the war Shepard had
proposed Department of Aeronau-
tics. The substitution of the plan for
an aircraft board was the result of
the pooling of ideas between the
army, navy and the aero societies.
The young officers who have de-
veloped the arJny's air program have
from the very first modelled their
plans with the view to an immense
industrial air fleet after the war.
Just as a mercantile marine is ne
cessary to maintain a fighting navy
by nurturing the constructors so will
that nation excel in air warfare which
has the most highly developed air
fleets in commerce.
Much of the work being done to-
day is permanent. The aviation train
ing camps will be training centers
after the war. The first air mail
routes will probably be between these
camps.
The factories now turning out air
craft parts and the assembling plants
will produce commercial aircraft.
Since the government has almost
absorbed the industry it will probably
remain in government hands. just as
the new mercantile marine.
Undoubtedly the first commercial
service will be in connection with the
postoffice. A new fast mail service
carrying bank checks and speeding
up the clearing operations of the fed
eral reserve system is already being
planned.
A treasury department coast patrol
in connection with the revenue system
and the life saving service is already
being mapped out.
At the end of the war thousands
of air chauffeurs will return from
the battle fronts ready to enter the
new business.
Many engineers predict the COM
mercial developments of the airplane
will surpass that of the automobile.
Thanks to the war. and the necessity
of investing hundreds of millions of
government money in aircraft, the
industry has passed through expert
mental stages which would have oc-
cupied years if left to private capital
The entry of the United States in
to the war in time to profit by the
mistakes and successes Of the other
nations, with unimpaired resources
and credit, insures we will be in the
lead at the opening of the era of air.
plane transportation.
No one today can set any limits
to the possibilities Of the air routes.
Passengers. mail and light freight
are already in sight, also a tremen-
dous use of the airplane as a pleas
ure craft.
The new aircraft board is to con-
sist of the chief signal officer of the
army, the chief constructor Of the
navy and seven civilians to be named
by the President. The salaries Of
the civilian members will be $500
per year. They are put in entire
charge of all aircraft activities until
six months after the war.
