AWAITING MACHINES

The United States may have few
alrplanes in France, but there are
surely flyers there who can take care
of themselves against the Germans.
In the past week the American avi.
ators have driven off Hun machines
on several occasions. Few details of
the fights were given, but the results
of the encounters are sufficient to tell
the story.
The young men in this country are
capable of becoming the best flyers
IN the world. For the same reasons
that they can take the honors in any
international athletic contest, they
can lead the world in aviation.
Aviation war is a kind of grim
athletics. The winner is the ma,
with best Judgment, coolest nerves,
most daring, and greatest skill
Young Americans are peculiarly fitted
by their intuitions and training to fill
the requirements.
since we know that our present and
future ayiatOrs can do what is desired
OF them, why not give them a big part
IN winning the war?
ah few of them in France, prob.
ably riding foreign machines, can
drive German machines to earth, what
could 100000 of them, each with an
American-made machine at his COM
mand, not do?
They would end the war in few
months and give the Huns a rain of
dynamite that would make their whole
country look like the ruins of Lou
vain.
What would the young men of the
United States not give to end the war
in this spectacular and brilliant man
ner!
They are waiting, and they will work
marvels if they are but trained and
provided with machines.
The airplane program should go
hand in hand with shipbuilding, and
these two should occupy the concen-
trated attention of the war depart
ments as the way to end the war in
the quickest and least costly way.
