AIR SERVICE
 WILL BE BIC
 UNDERTAKING

london Oct, 20-The proposed Liverpoo and Liverpool New York air service will be an enormous undertaking. The problem Of supplying the necessary dirtgibIe sirships Is but one of the items to be considered. They cost about s8,750,- 900 each to construct. At least six of these huge craft will be necessary to maintain these two services with any degree of regularity.
 There are also to be considered the problems of suitable landing grounds and mooring posts, the intention of the Great Northern Aerial Syndicate being that aerodromes will be pro- vided at the more important stations while moortng posts will serve as second class stops or haIts.
 Aerodromes for dirigibles are re- cuired only at every 2,000 miles and ic is now possible for an airship to be nroored to or released from a moor ing tower in any wind up to 60 miles an hour; yet the total financial back ing considered necessary for such an l!nderta king is in the neighbOrhood of S1G.000,Q00.
 The rnooring out station for air ships which is in the form of a high tower enclosing an elevator shaft by which passengers and cargo will be taken up and down from the ground is over 150 feet high. With a revolv- fag head the airshtp can be rigtdly attached to this tower by the nose, will ride clear of the ground in all v-ea thers, and be able to swing with 1fsc direction of the wind.
 Each of these towers will be pro vided with a haultng-in winch and a rope by which the airshiD will be hauled up to the mooring post also . supply base of hydrogen, fuel, and water ballast

STRATF0RD
Especial to The TimesO

Stratford, Oct 21-Stratfordrs tax rate for the coming year was fixed at 20 mills at the adjourned annual town meeting held last evening. This Is higher than last year and is said to be due to the large increase in population and the previous low val uation. of property.
 The discussions on the various points of interest such as the extent of the police force, schools, lighting and roads, were extended Jacob Horkheimer of the Lordship district, spoke at some length suggesting that the town build school in his district. He outlined the few con- veniences which were afforded to Lordship by the town commenting on the fact that the people in that sec ton paid just the same amount of taxes as did those living in the cen ter.
 Judge Coughlin stated in regard to extent of the police force, that in most towns and cities the number of the force was reckoned on the population, that is probably one pa trolnlan for 1000 people. "By that method, for safe protection, we should have about Is or 16 men on duty, while someone at the meeting has suggested to cut down the pro- posed force of six men to four men," said MT. Coughlin.
 The meeting ended at a very late hour.
