Great Flying Ships
To Be Evolved From
Seaplanes, Say Experts

ever, have not been disclosed.
Naval experts point out that in
both seaplane and .dirigible develop
ment one of the most important
elements to be considered is that
of getting efficient power The Lib
erty motors have proved highly sat
iSfactory so far as endurance goes
on the transatlantic flight, but no
means have yet been evolved to get
full benefit of their power The
problem is the same as that en-
countered with steam turbines in
surface craft. The efficient engine
speed OF any gasoline motor now
known is too high for efficient pro-
peller speed. Connected direct -
the engine shafts, the propellers re-
volve so rapidly that the length and
pitch of the blades cannot be set
so as to obtain all of the lifting
power the engine could furnish.
The navy has been working for
months with a reduction gear sys-
tenn to go between the engine and
the propeller. a similar device has
permitted destroyers to use tur-
bine engines, but it has found a
difficult task to design lightweight
reduction gear for seaplanes or
other aircraft. Should this device
be worked out, the NC seaplanes
could be made much more efficient
and their cruising radius be greatly
increased.
As to the sea-keeping qualities
of the NC planes, the experience of
the NC-1 and NC-3 indicate to ex-
perts that some way must be found
to get the plane surfaces higher out
of water. This would save them from
battering into the sea when riding
the surface. A monoplane type flying
boat is being experimental with
which may develop enough to war
rant search in that direction.
New gasoline motors for lighter
than-air craft have been worked
out and received their first test
on the flight of the dirigible C-5
from Montauk Point. Long Island,
to St. Johns Newfoundland. So
well did they function that decision
had been made to attempt a direct
flight to Ireland with the CO be-
fore the ship was blown to sea and
wrecked. Another attempt to cross
the Atlantic will be made as soon
as similar engines can be installed
in another aircraft of the &C" type.
Extensive tests with dirigibles
driven by the motors previously en-
ployed for this service are said 10

been tested at the navy yard gear

economy. Details of engine con-
struction and performance have not
been disclosed, but it is understood
that ON the 26-hour continuous fight
of the C-5 from Montauk Point to
St. Johns, the motors did better

FITZ HAS FOOZLED.

John Fitzpatrick. manager of the
strike of quarter of a million more
or less unwilling steel workers, when
before the senate committee on labor
testified that he was a horseshoer by
trade. though he is an agitator by
profession; that he never worked in
the steel industry; never was even in
side of a steel plant; had not learned
what were wages of steel workers in
any of the different jobs; that IF
some of the men got $50 $40 and $50
per day, it was but a mere pittance.'
He admitted he did not even know
what percentage of steel workers
voted for the strike; that his knowl-
edge about conditions was only hear
say, but all the same the men were
the most down trodden of laborers
and no matter what they were being
paid, their situation was menace
to this government" and the equal
never existed in even darkest Russia"
where starvation has killed hundreds
of thousands within year. and thou
sands of civilians have been shot by
order of the revolutionists.
But this wild Fitzpatrick could
hardly be expected to hold his job
with the foreigners who are paying
him if he had not talked up to the
committee.
Samuel Gompers, who usually di-
reefs labor. says that following Presi-
dent wilson's request that the steel
strike be postponed until after the
national industrial conference, which
begins next Monday, he, Gompers ad-
vised the union committee that the
stnike be deferred. This clearly i'm
plies that Mr.. Gompers believed the
steel workers had no grievance that
they could not trust to the judgment
and recommendatory action of the
Industrial conference,
1t was not the old leader, however,
but Chairman Fitzpatrick, who has
never visited the plants. who had the
final say as to what the steel workers
were thinking and what they would
do.
It would seem that any class Of
workmen with common sense would
furnish a leader in their own craft.
familiar with their conditions, pay
and needs, and not have an outsider
represent them in dealing with en-
blowers or in running a strike.

it for CHIC to walt until Turkey or

have been easy, but did not seem to
me to accord with my duty.
Were we to hope, after all our pres

this stage spur the people to further
efforts, or would really take a step
toward peace through the medium of

wasting and empty words.
The enemy had to be asked for
peace and armistice. The military
| position, which could only get worse,
| demanded this.
| We were not yet bound to surrender
Internationally. The enemy would
have to speak. Would he talk of con-
Citation or of violence? In my judg-
ment of Clemenceau and Lloyd

however, had often stated his terms

Besides, the decisive help given In
! France by the United States without
which the entente would long before
have suffered a military defeat made
| it highly likely that Wilson would be
able to maintain his views, which he
| had expressed in the most binding
manner, against England and France.
We had to secure n clear vision on
this matter If our views of Wilson
were right, then we could accept as
| the basis of negotiations his fourteen
points, hard enough, but, at any rate,
clear and definite. If, on the other
hand, we were disappointed IN him. if
the enemy imposed too severe condi-
tons, if even their military chiefs re-
! fused us the respect to which our
brave struggles entitled us then the
| fight would have to continue, how
ever hard 1t might be, and then at
last the government and the people
might be brought to heroic measures.
when at last they saw clearly what
was at stake for Germany IN this war
1t was in this respect that I simply
could not give up hope Of new moral
reinforcement at home. If the enemy
gave the same answer as he did in
January. 1917. then. with any proper
leadership, new spirit of determine

HEALTHY ACTION PREVENTS
CRIME.

Among the most reckless and active
of the wild miscreants who burned
the Omaha court house. and swung
by rope the mayor whom they found
in the building, doing his duty to save
property and prisoners, We're young
sters of eighteen to twenty-five years
of age. who climbed ladders to enter
and start blazes among records. 1t is
probable that such youths were of a
class reared without control by par
ents, or given no anchor such as is
supplied by work or recreation to
utilize their minds and supply their
physical need of action. Idleness of
course tends to the formation of bad
habits and mental excitement becomes
an object of craving. When self
control is lacking the youth of this
sort easily distances criminals of more
caution and more knowledge as to
what may happen to them as punish
ment. There are of course confirmed
criminals who time after time commit
a monotonous offense without expect
ing to escape punishment. But many
not reform the worst OF these persons
with twisted tendencies. But many
a youth has been saved from going
wrong by athletic games like baseball
In games there is besides exercise
the opportunity for craft and strate-
gem, for getting the better of others
by false motions and other legitimate
forms of misleading an opponent
In vigorous games a boy is forced to
play fair, His love for outwitting
people finds an outlet and his atten-
ton is diverted from abnormal to
normal ways of doing it. 1t may tide
him over a dangerous age, until he
can maturely decide between right
and wrong.
1t is rare that a good ball player is
in court for any crime All social
workers say Juvenile crime diminish
es where there are Fairgrounds and
organized play. Let the bad boy steal
bases instead of fruit, and he may

pupil in giving special explanations.
The brightest children get along
pretty we'll anyway but many others
become discouraged and fall into a
habit of tagging.
Such a condition is so harmful to
the development Of the country that
it must not be permitted One of two
things out to be done everywhere.
The first alternative is to pay teach
ers salaries fully equivalent to the ad-
vance in the cost of living. 1t is
really the only thoroughly fair propo-
sition.
And If taxpayers are not willing to
go as far as that there is one thing
they could do in many small commu-
mites that would relieve the situation
somewhat. That is, find comfortable
and pleasant homes that would board
teachers at rates so low that present
salaries would be fair.

SHORTAGE OF TEACHERS.

In Albuquerque and most of the
large towns of New Mexico school
salaries have been increased this year
and many teachers have been import
ed from other states. But in the
smaller districts there is difficulty in
securing teachers, largely because the
compensation is too small for COM
Portable existence under present con-
ditions. Many teachers quit work at
the close of the spring terms and are
otherwise employed. However. the
normal schools in this state are pre-
pairing more students than ever before
for educational work to meet the de-
mand from schools that do pay
enough for service. The head of the
State Normal school at Silver City
announces that the institution has
calls for qualified teachers and could
have placed seventy-five more than
are available.
In Arizona there is such shortage
that the state school officials are UNI
able to supply enough instructors and
have suspended the rule requiring
teachers to have certificates. Tenn
porary permits are being issued to
applicants with any teaching expert
ence, or DESTROYS of becoming teach
ers.
The National Educational associa-
ton has completed a survey of condi.
tons in the schools. and it says there
is a shortage of $4,000 teachers. Also
it is learned that $4,000 teachers lack
the ability and training needed.
People may complain about the cost
of schools, but will complain more II
schools turn out students who are in
efficient and do not know enough tc
work for the good of the communities
With this shortage of 100000 COM
petent teachers in the United States
schools can not do the work that par
ents desire done. The children will
not get interested. Many will foo
away time and leave school cary
before they have fitted themselves tc
be effective. Many schools are SC
crowded that teachers have but a few
moments Of time to devote TO any
