There will be other huge expenditures

are in sight to forecast q change of

TO ERR Is HUMAN.

The most pitlful circumstance of all the tragedy surrounding the fate of the Princess Sophia has come to light, namely, that the ot- fers of aid to the passengers were refused at time when it might have been possible to take them off the doomed ship and transport them to place of safety
 It is human to make mistakes, but 1t is not often that one persons error in ludg- ment will have such disastrous and far-reaCh- ing effects There is no doubt but that Cap tain Locke, of the Sophia, thought that the passengers entrusted to his care and his boat were in no immediate danger, and that the people aboard might even be safer there than if they hazarded an attempt to make the transfer to the other boats. He followed the course that seemed to him to be Wisest and best and it led to destruction and disaster.
 It is easy to censure him and place the blame for the great loss of life upon his shoulders-he is dead and can say no word in his own defense But he was only poor human being like the rest of us. He made a disastrous mistake, but he also paid the su- preme penalty.

chimes of all types have been sent to the Americans in France In less than six months the Yankees have reached total of aircraft only one thousand less than tine maximum combined total of all the other allied nations. This Is certainly record, and the aircraft board has done much to retrieve it~ rcputa- ton and establish itself among the other highly efficient war department, of the country.

QUANTITY PRODUCTION

When America entered the war, one Ot the crying needs of the allies war airplanes. They did not have enough to take and keep the mastery of the air, and without 1t they were being held and almost beaten. The United States immediately set about to make up this deficiency in characteristic manner. For time nothing but waste of money and materials seemed to result from their efforts, and there was much talk about the scandal of the aircraft production board and also much Censure.
 But the trouble was the characteristic Yankee way of going about such a job. The aircraft production board was to produce air planes, but they considered that they must produce not only immense quantities of air craft but also a better type of air machine than was in use at that time by the allies. Therefore they set about experimenting to get super airplane engine installed in a super-plane This took time, for the fore most engineers of the country devoted them selves to the task of designing this wonder full machine of the air There was another factor that entered into their calculations also. They wanted to produce immense numbers of these machines That meant that they must plan to get ''quantity production, a purely American term, which is almost synonymous with Standardization
 In the meantime there were no planes being produced, and the public and the sol diers in France and congressman in Wash ington were all demanding to know where those American airplanes were. The engineers at work finally announced that they had de signed Liberty motor, the superior of any thing that had yet been produced in the line of aerial motors. Next on the program came the remodeling of all the factory machinery so that they could produce the standardized parts of the Liberty motor. After this had been attended to the manufacturers were ready for quantity production of aircraft, and nearly a year had elapsed since America had entered the war.
 But then Uncle Sam made up for lost time. Liberty motors were made and set up in readiness to be put into the bodies of the machines They were literally poured out of the factories by the thousands, until at present the output for single week has reached the total of one thousand planes
 One thousand eyes and fighting machines for the American forces in France to throw against the Germans It is no wonder that Fritz, blinded and sorely beaten is being driv- en farther and farther back toward his own frontier. Furthermore, not only is there a tremendous number of machines being pro- duced, but they are also of vastly superior quality and they are also standardized thus simplifying the matter of repairs and renew als
 Along with the announcement of the weeks total production of aircraft comes a report of what America has done in the line of aircraft production up to date. In the last six months twenty five hundred fighting ma
