being achieved. In August, 1915, this method of attack twas first prac- ticed successfully by British air pi lots who. sank several ships in the Dardanelles by torpedoes discharged from seaplanes," and in May, 1917, the English steamship Gena was sunk by torpedo from a German seaplane off Aldeburgh. The pontoon ar engagements for holding the torpedo utilized on this attack are shown in a contemporary sketch to have been exactly the same as those devised by Rear Admiral Fiske for his torpedo plane-that is, the torpedo is held between the two pontoons with bracing that prevents it's movement during the flight of the seaplane.
 This, briefly is the history of the new weapon. It is in substantial agreement with the facts printed in the Herald early in the war, and la ter set down with cogency and inter- est in a paper contributed to the Proceedings of the United States Naval Institute by Henry Woodhouse, vice president of the Aero League Of America. The whole story of neg feet and indifference does not furnish pleasant reading to a patriotic public even though it be a rehearsing ot that thricetold tale, the fate so often besetting the originator of great ideas But now that the practlcabll- itv and merit of the weapon are re- vealed, almost entirely by foreign m VeStigation, it must be said IL De- comes a matter of vital nauonal de- fence that the development ot the new weapon should be not only encour- oged but ordered by those that too long have neglected it's claims on their sympathy as home idea and on. their intelligence as a master tool in the tactics of war.

Torpedo Planes of America.

\ANSN l Oi N 1ISi 1luJ
 Discussing the submerSible battle ship proposed by Lord Fisher, in con- sequence of the dangers inherent in air attack, the British Naval and Military Record declares that the eff fectiveness of such assaults remains to be proved, because anti-aircraft guns have made it impossible for air ships or planes to descend low enough to bomb swiftly moving ves- selS with much chance of success. ''The torpedo plane, however is an other proposition" it adds, and many officers that have seen it work believe that the torpedo plane is be- coming a bane more deadly than the submarine. When the British Atlan- tic fleet was at Portland a week or two ago a flight of planes from Ports mouth made a sudden attack and planted two torpedoes on the flag ship" This was, of course, a peace attack but there is too much other evidence to permit the value of this American idea to be ]; ;5htly regarded, as it has been in thi& country, for it may prove to be the Jeapon that is to revolutionize navCi resign.
 On his return from service with the grand fleet, Rear Admiral Hugh Rod man, U. $. N., made two recommen- dations, first, that this country should continue to use submarines for de- fence, and, second, that it should build new types of vessels equipped with aeroplanes able to attack fleets at close range with torpedo planes. The second of these recommenda- tions has since received the strongest confirmation, and it is gratifying to know that the idea of the weapon was conceived by an American naval off cer. In the winter of 1910-11 Rear Admiral Bradley A. Fiske proposed it's employment for the defence of the Philippines, and in July, 1912, a patent for the torpedo plane was granted to him by the United States patent office.
 Little was done, however, to en- courage the inventor by government action. Official interest was either lukeWarm or too much occupied with other projects, and the only real en- couragement came tin 1916 from the board of governors of the Aero Club of America whose efforts and finan- cial support kept the subject alive. In the meantime, In 1913, Italy and Great Britain experimented with the idea, and in 1914, two years Subse- quent to the Fiske patent, a British patent was issued to two British nav al officers. Material results were also

"God,s Time" F1outcd Again.
Bridgeport Post.)

The good people, and there are good many of them, who opposed the davlight saving scheme because it vio- lated what they were pleased to call "God's time" will have another chance to shake out their voices.
 For it is reported that Maynard, the flying parson in the transcOntinental race, recently flew 147 miles in no time at all,
 He arrived at a point IF miles be- vond his starting point just two min utes before he started. He started at 5:O3 D. m. and arrived at 5:01 D. m.
 Tn other words Lieut.. Maynard crossed from one artificial time belt to another. doing the IF miles in 5S minutes.
 Those who love to honor Gods time will assume the proper facial eXpres- sion at this blasphemous flight, and from a minister, too. Members of con eress will please rise to the question bv what right the government has ar bitrariIy set the clocks of the far west?

accidents in which day after day new victims are added to the roll?
 All of the pilots entered to start from Mineola or San Francisco were trained army aviators. It is fair to assume that they had all thoroughly mastered the business of flying. Ac- cording to Gen. Mitchell, chief of operations and training in the army air service, the De Haviland 4, which nearly all of them have used, is a faulty and obsolete machine, so con- structed as to make death almost cer- tain in case of accident. He points out that the aviators who were killed were in De Haviland planes At the same time with few exceptions those who have succeeded in crossing the continent or are still on the way have the same machine. In any case, the relative merits of newer types not yet adopted by the army is matter to be determined by experts.
 The principal danger, however, in the transc continental air flight has risen from placing undue emphasis on speed. The army air service has been conducting a race in which first honors go to those covering the dis tance in the fastest time. In the conditions laid down it has multi piled the risks by melting contestants to try for records. As was natural in the circumstances, considerations of safety have taken place. The spirit of intense rivalry created has had tragical results. Nine men are already dead. and of those remaining no one dare predict how many more will be killed before the race is ended.

amount to little but identification tags, for which two cents is paid, and which allow the passengers to ride across additional zones without the six cents initial charge. The trans fer is witness to the fact that this has been paid.
 Readers will find. after figuring out their average rides and former fares that 100 per cent. increases in the fares are by no means uncommo on Of course the short rides are about the same in price but immediately one goes across two zones the sum mounts very quickly and the zones are small enough to make this ap- preciable in the average trip. Wheth- CT the Connecticut Co. needs this in crease or not is not for us to say. We are still a little disturbed, when con- sidering this advance, by the extreme losses that the company must have suffered under the present system They claim that the advance is nec- essarv. If it is there was a big loss before. But, providing the company wishes to play fair with the public, the proposed system may be easily the widening out of each one a little bit. or a great deal as conditions war rant.

 isit regularly, for work or other req ons.
 \ The plan allows for the crossing of
 wo zones for the original payment of
 ix cents fare, which is collected
 rom every passenger who rides two Homes or any part of that distance. #'he limit of his ride is two, thereaft-
 r he pays two cents for every zone Fhich he traverses, or each fraction
 Thereof. If your home is in a zone of Which the boundary line is near, say
 nly a block away, it becomes neces- ary for you to include this within the wo zones which you are allowed to Hide. You may traverse this distance nd one other zone for the initial payment. Should you walk one block, arrying you into the next zone, you hay ride two including the one in Which you got on. Thus walking block may mean the difference of
 wo cents to the patron of the trolley
 The zones are radiating from Gen.
