ENGINE BUILT LIKE A WATCH
Fast, Modern AlrpIane May Readily
Cost From $4,000 TO $4,000 and
Wears Out Quickly.

The engine of your motor ear
weighs from 500 to 1900 pounds, or
more. 1t will average from 20 to 30
horsepower e. the lowest, says .
writer in Golfers. The new airplane
engines run less than three pounds per
horsepower and the finest Of them two
pounds or less. Airplanes have been
built with air-cooled engines for short
distance, fast scouting whose en-
gineS weigh less than a pound and
three-quarters per horsepower. They
must be quite literally, as an old adj
vcrtisement used to say, 'built like q
watch"
At present a high-powered airplane
engine of the best type-say 100 to
$50 horsepower-cannot be purchased
for much less than $1,000. And the
whole airplane, a big one, may readily
cost $4,000 to $4,000. You can read
lily see why the construction OF only
$4,000 airplanes, as in Englands pro-
gram, would easily equal, for a total
expenditure for men and camps ana
hangers and repairs and wastage,
more than half a billion dollars.
A fast modern airplane has an aver
age life of only about two or three
hundred hours of active service-say
two months at the outside. This
means that to keep 10000 airplanes ON
battle line you have to be able to
build 5000 per month or more. The
cost would be almost unthinkable.
That is why warfare in the air for any
length of time would bankrupt the
world. And that, in turn, is why war
fare in the air means the end of all
warfare.

SHIPS NEED OF AUSTRALIA
Grain of Little Value Without Trans
portation, as Little Of It Is Used
at Home.

"Australia's food production this
year will average normal; 1t Is neither
unusually heavy nor light, but there
is going to be considerable difficulty
in handling the crops, because there
are no facilities for transportation"
said FL. w. Stephens, a merchant OF
Melbourne, who was visiting the Unit
ed States. 1.-THE greatest need of Aus
tralia today Is transportation. Until
ship tonnage is provided 1t is almost
useless for the farmers to complete
their harvesting as it requires only q
small percentage Of the crops to sup
ply the domestic needs. Heretofore
great quantities of grain have been
shipped to England and 1t is still going
overseas, but in not sufficient quantity
for England needs wheat now as never
before. But without ships 1t Is impos-
sible for US to send our wheat
abroad.
1.-THE wheat crop of Australia was
damaged to some extent by mice, and
until the farmers learned how to COM
bat this pest 1t threatened to become
a serious menace. The farmers used
poison, water, gas and other means,
and finally got rid of them"

WILSON'S DRASTIC
MOVE FOR ECONOMY
GIVES GOVERNMENT CONTROL
OVER EVERY COMMODITY Ex+
PORTED FROM u S.
President Issues Sweeping .Proeiarha-
ton to Tighten Grasp on All NUM-
tions, Money and Supplies to BE
Sent Abroad in the Future.

Washington.-Pres Wilson on
August y issued proclamation which
gives the government control over
every possible commodity exported
from the United States.
1t is the most drastic step for econ
oniy control taken by any nation dur
ing the war. The president In a
statement accompanying the procla-
nation insists that he aims at control
and not at the actual Stoppage of ex-
ports. But the manner in which the
proclamation is divided makes it's
purpose certain.
All articles of commerce must be
licensed for export to enemy countries
and the countries of the European
neutrals. This will give the United
States for the first time control over
certain munitions and money sent to
the neutrals.
The presidents proclamation was ac-
companied by an explanation in which
he detailed the difference between the
divisions established in naming the
commodities coming under the ruling.
Purpose is Cor troll.
1.-The purpose and effect of this
proclamation is not export prohibition
but merely export CONTROL" the presi-
dent states. at is not the intention to
interfere unnecessarily with our for
eign trade; but our own domestic
needs must be adequately safeguarded
and there is the added duty Of meet
ing the necessities of all the; nations
at war with the imperial German gov
eminent. After these needs are met,
it is our wish and intention to adj
| minister to the needs Of the neutral
nations as far as our resources per-
NIT. This task will be discharged
without other than the very proper
qualification that the liberation of our
surplus products shall not be made the
occasion of benefit to the enemy, eth
er directly or indirectly.
1.-The two lists have been prepared
in the interests of facility and eXpedi-
ency. The first list, applicable to the
enemy and his allies and to the neu-
trail countries of Europe, brings under
control practically all articles of com
merce, while the second list, apple
able to all the other countries of the
world, makes only few additions to
the list of commodities controlled by
the proclama ton of July 8, 1917 It
is obvious that closer supervision
and control of exports is necessary
with respect to those European neu-
trails within the sphere of hostilities
than is required for those countries
further removed.
Distinction Necessary.
1.-THE establishment of these distinc-
tons will simplify the administrative
processes and enable US to continue
our policy of minimizing the interrupt
| ton.
mo licenses will be necessary for
the importation of coin, bullion, cur.
rency and evidsnces of Indebtedness
until required by regulations to be
promulgated by the secretary of the
treasury at his discretion
The list Of commodities for which
license is required for exports to the
rest of the world is widely extended.
This" says the president, .'is fol
the protection of our own needs"
