WASHINGTON, D. c., March I'll
Shell shock" the nervous ai1ment
thta has made hundreds of soldiers in
valids during the war can be elm
mated only if the army aids in the
fight against it. A general order has
been issued by the war department,
instructing officers and emn in the
army in the best methods of prevent
ing shell shock.
The order says that it has been OBJ
served in Europe that soldiers who
have become victims of shell shock
had, for several days before their col +
lapse, given evidence that they wers
fast approaching the limit of their

NAMING OF WARsHiPs.

The law requires that all frstclnss battleships
"shall be named for states and shall not be named
for any city. place, or person until Il names Of
the states have been exhausted" recent

der points out that Secretary Daniels recent
der assigning the names of New Mexico, Califor-
mia. Tennessee. Mississippi, and Idaho to the five
superdreadnaughts under construction COM
pletely exhausts the list of unused names. In
selecting names for the five battle cruisers au-
thorized by the last congress, recourse was had
to names which never should have disappeared
from the navy register-ConstitutiOn Constella-
tion, Saratoga Ranger, and Lexington. The IA
old frigates Constitution and Constellation,

the propeler and 100 cartridges for each gun.
Returning now to the bombing machines the
types best known are the German GOtha, which
is virtually copy of the British Hnndey-Palmer'
and the Italian CaprOni. The dimensions of the
latter cannot be given for the machines are In
several sizes, the smaller being biplnnes, the
largest being triplnne. Those of the Gothn q
III are known 1t is n biplnne with n wing spread
of TIT feet and fuselage 4O3S feet long, 1t can go
96.S miles nour. ascend 1850 feet and carry
load of 800 pounds of bombs besides at least two
men.
1t was necessary to put three planes on the
larger CaprOni, in order to carry the immense
weight Mt high speed. 1t has three fuselages
each with Its own motor. the one In the middle
being much shorter than the others. The right
and left fuseages have propellers in front, the
middle fuselage has a propeller behind. The mo-
tors are 24O-horse-power Isotta-Fraschni.
The Caproni are slow machines-only about 90
miles hOur-and is capable of fighting single
handed against the little wasps of the air. They
unique in that any one Of their motors suf-
fees to propel the machine therefore, all three
must he stopped by bullets before 1t is disabled.
In this last respect its only rival is-sO far as
known at present writing-the great German
GOtha, which has two motors, either of which Will
prOpel It,
One of the most striking facts about the evou
ton of air craft since the began is that the
monop'nne has virtually disappeared Quite early
in the war the French Newport grew an extra
pair of wings The principal why two
the air depends upon the area of the wings. Now
the Gshas two pairs of wings are III feet long
and 1926 feet wide. which gives area of 569
square feet for each pair, LBS square feet as
the total wing surface. If this all in single
plane the wing would have to be about 153 feet
long IL they had the breadth now and
the leverage of the wind their ends would be
so great that the machine would be absolutely un-
manageable.
For this same reason the biggest of the Caproni.
which is by far the largest thing in the air, has
three planes instead of two.
The GOthn Is however more than n bombing
machine; 1t is veritable aerial -battleship Over
its bow n swivel is machine gun that
shoot forward over horizontal arc of more than
$50 degrees, and over perpendicular arc of
about 240 degrees. On Its fuselage, behind Its
wings and behind the propeers, is another gun
that shoots astern n horizontal arc of nearly
$50 degrees and over perpendicular arc of about
