FOOD WINS THE WAR 1 DON'T WASTE IT !
TYPE OF AIRPLANE NEEDED BritlSh Expert Points Out Serious De- feet in Those Which Are in
 Use at Present

The most unpleasant situation in which an airman can find himself Is to be at a considerable height and me view in all directions cut of hy clouds. There Is no fixed point visible. and ne can only tell If he is flying straight hy his compass and a!r speed. If the Wlnd be "bumpy" the compass card begins to move and only the most delicate or steering will get It back to steady position.
 Capt. B. c. Hucks of the British roy al flying corps says he has found 1t aI' most impossible to get the compass steady In a cloud. The airplane has al- raady begun to turn and the pilot IS almost certain to over correct. Then the nose drops and the speed goes an. The pilot cannot tell whether the machine is taking a nOse-dive, Is splr- alllng dowuwards or merely gliding bit too rapidly.
 Ha stable machine he let alone un' der these circumstances It will right Itself eventually and glide normally. But few pilots have nerve enough 10 let E alone and they are liable to try to pull out too suddenly, which meanS dtsasater.
 Captain HuckS told the Aeronautical society h London thnt 8 machine which win show constant vertical or horizontal line and be independent or centrifugal force, was badly needed.

CHILEAN GOLD RESERVE HERE
Peculiar Deal by Which IL Was Transferred From Germany to
 the United States.

At the outbreak of the war. says he London Economist, the Chilean government owned a large amount of Told in Germany, which was destined 70 form a basis for its note Issue. und Sas held up by the blockade. So were fast quantities of nitrutes, bought rom German producers ln Chile for HpOrt Co Germany, and their stOppage compelled the German nitrate pro luCeTs in Chile to cease working. These producers too were In debt to he Chilean government. That gov. srnment therefore bought the nitrate. paying for It by drafts on Berlin Eawn against the gold which it could sot reach. It then sold the nitrate ip the United States to the DuPOnt EX- s!osiYes company, receiving payment n gold ln New York. Thus it trans !esred Its gold reserve from Germany 10 the United States, and incidentally tdded 10 the stock of raw material 10 be converted into explosives where with to defeat German troops. The AeAl has naturally been interpreted tn Erance as a preliminary step toward \ breach with Germany, but 1t was esrried out with the sanction of the German government. Partly, no doubt, he latter desired to extriCate Its sub EeEts in Chile and an important Ham, burg mercantile firm from their Seri' Pas pecunlary difficulties, but It must also have been moved by an extreme anxiety to keep on good terms with Chile. which contains q large German population and is an Important field for German trade.
