TAFT'S PREDICTION

INDIANAPOLIS. May 15.-william
II. Taft in a political address at the
Columbia Club said:
There is a strong prospect OF Re-
publican victory in 1920. As I go
about the country this seems to be
accepted as what is to be expected.
There is a great deal of feeling grow
ing out OF the exercise OF arbitrary
power by the Executive, the necessity
for which in time OF war has been
recognized, but its extension after the
armistice has awakened criticism.
There is, think. a strong feeling
against Government ownership, and
SO far as ] can see. the Republicans
are determined to make that a distinct
issue.
'sThe Democrats are very much di-
vided as to the natural result of eight
years OF power, and therefore there is
every reason TO anticipate a campaign
in which Republicans will be united
and the Democrats weakened by in
ternaI dissension. However, this sit
nation should not lead to over
confidence. There is a very important
year and a half before the election"

from experience It is learned that It
is useless to send against a forty
mile gale a plane having a top speed
OF no more than seventy-fve or
eighty miles an hour.
Under numerous conditions" says
the report, ait is possible to make
Roadway only with a Liberty engine
which has plenty of reserve power. A
plane equipped with a 15O-horsepower
motor, If it succeeds in breaking
through the surface winds. can make
only slow and Iaborious Roadway
agaist a full or CHARTERED head wind
of about forty miles. A few wind
storm conditions were encountered
where the planes at the height Of
the gust were actually carried back
wards"
The transportation by airplane Is
ordinarily twice as fast as by train,
and on distance Of 90 miles or more,
no matter how frequent or excellent
the train service, the airplane mail at
the higher rate OF postage SHOULD
equal the cost of it's operations.
wherever the train service is not as
frequent or as fast as it is between
Washington and New York the air
plane operations should show an i'm
mense profit on all distances from
500 miles up.

BACK TO FARM MOVEMENT
POPULAR WITH SOLDIERS

Agriculture holds one OF the fore
most places in popularity with the
disabled soldiers being re-educated
by the Federal Board for Vocational
Education.
Out of 29e3 cases approved for
training by the Federal Board. near
~ 500 have taken up some branch
OF agriculture. About 400 Of these
have gone in for general farming,
taking full courses at appropriate
agricultural colleges so as to equip
themselves for the operation OF mod
ern farms, according to modern
methods. In agronOmy there are only
2 students; animal husbandry is be-
ing studied by 20; dairying by Is:
horticulture by Is; poultry raising by
Is, and truck gardening by 0.
The comparative number taking
agriculture shows an increase, and
is attributable largely to the offer
OF free education and scientific farm
ing made ~ the Government.
