airships as scout craft.
II is no longer secret that the
Germans owed their escape at Jut-
land to Zeppelins, while, earlier In
the war, 1t was the scout work OF
Zeppelins that gave the German fleet
the "all clear" signal for the bonn
bardment of Scarborough. an act
of singular cruelty the Huns were
able to accomplish without injury.
Zeppelins also acted in a similar
in the torpedoing OF the

When war broke out In 1914 the
British had only seven airships in

at work Off and on by October 81

"America" an Ancient Tune

In the controversy over the origin, Of the tune
for America" which he calls "ouf nobest Of
national anthems" Poultney Bigelow, in a letter
to the New York Times, says:
"The Prussian king Frederick William II, took
1t from England In 1892 in order to giorlfy him
self at the dedication Of a triumphal arch in
Berlin called the Brandenburg thor. This gate Of
victory was erected In honor of his troops who
had been chased out of France by the ragged
republican armies at Valmy. The Prussian regi-
ments returned across the Rhine In 1892 pro
claiming themselves victorious, and welcomed
with every demonstration of patriotic Joy.
"The Danish royal house had the same national
anthem previous to Prussia. and George III
adopted 1t more early still-without however
claiming priority as an English composition.
"How old 1t is we know not. It may have been
sung by the legions of Constantine behind their
Christian labarums; 1t may have been a favorite

covered at unusually high speeds. That m air
plane will be flown at more than 200 miles
an hour Is deemed a modest kind of prediction
Some enthusiasts proclaim the possibility of
heavier than air machine that will easily do 24O
miles nm hour.
So for the short trip may expect to see
nirplanes like the large allied bombing planes
come into general use. and for long-distance
travel and women will ride in the greater
comfort that he provided in giant dirigibles.
For tourist travel the dlrgible 1t is predicted
here will always be the popular craft. principally
because 1t fly at low rate Of speed and
permit its occupants to look at things. In
airplane for Instance the spendOr of the Bay OF
Naples is lost so fast must the airplane move;
while in an nirshp that beautiful scene can be
enjoyed ut leisure.
From an airplane going at ordinary cruising
speed say eighty miles an hour, the surface of
the earth looks like a dull contour map. with
large objects only dimy discernible because the
airpane must keep at least 900 feet above the
earth. On the other hand a dirigibe can get
along very nicely at an altitude of 200 feet and
drift along with engines almost completely
stopped.
The airshlp has another distinct advantage; 1t
does not "bank" in turning as an airplane does.
Sleeping in an arship is n calm experience; NOV
ing about comparatively simple And an airship
in flight does not produce the shrill whistles and
screeches eternally among the wires. Travelling
in an arship need be no more noisy than in a
motor car and with favorable wind blowing
the airshp's engines can be throttled down to q
few revolutions actually stopped
Engine stop Not Dangerous
What will probably appeal most to the lands
man who travels in the air for the first time
will be the fact that the airship can remain In
the air indefinitely and the passengers are in no
grave danger should the engines fail. The gas
bag is SO ample that the machine will not fall
when the engine stops. whereas in the air plane
an engine stop is life and death matter.
Dirgibie building here in England had great
boom during the days-and that the
signing Of peace treaty Is near at hand the
construction work has not been allowed to utterly
stop Instead the war machines are going to
be made largely into craft designed for peace
able missions.

Suggestion has been seriously made thar one OF
the conditions Of the peace should De the ap-
poIntment of an International commission vested
with power to Inspect regularly all German fac
tories $50 that the output Of anything lethai
could be strictly regulated"
Whatever regulation of the air comes from
the peace conference, and 1t can be predicted
with safety that some very serious consideration
of the air will he feature Of the historic meet
ing. 1t is very clearly understood on this side
of the water that supremacy Of the air will be
a deciding factor in any future war.
