THE AIRSHIP MAIL.

Washington, D. C., Feb. 21.-The establishment or an airship mail ser vice, a project which has been under consideration by the Postoffice Depart ment for several years, was placed a step nearer realization today, when bids were opened at the department for the construction of five ''postal" airplanes. With these machines, which are to be completed and delivered not later than April 25 of this year, an experimental service will be started between Washington, Philadelphia and New York. The service will begin with one round trip day and later may be expanded. First-class mail only will be carried at the outset. A special postage rate will be charged for letters carried by the aerial route. The rate contemplated is 25 cents per ounce or fraction thereof
 The airplanes to be employed in the postal service will be of the same general type as machines that have been satisfactorily tried out in the ser vice of the war Or navy departments. Each airplane will be required to carry 300 pounds of mail not less than 200 miles without stopping, at maximum speed of loo miles an hour, a minimum speed of 45 miles and a climbing speed of 5000 feet in 10 minutes.

OUR WAR PREPARATIONS.

While the critics of the admins tratiCn have been occupying >heir time in pointing out that certain things should have been done ill d certain way, the members of the ad ministration evidently have been pro- ceeding with war preparations in the best way to get quick results. We have more men in France than it was estimated there would be at his time, ship tonnage is increasing, and, despite great difficulties due to lack of material, the United States already has en route to France some of the big battle planes which will give the Germans taste. of their own medicine.
 The United States is not as well prepared for war as Germany. nor is it as well prepared as it would be had the big | and his party accom- plished. while in power, the things they declare should have been ac- complished ten or twelve years ago, but President Wilson and his aids are handling the war preparations better than such work ever handled in the United States.

Throughout this broad mentally deficient persons are sent to jail for their afflictons.
