Paris, March y. - (Havas. y
Delegates to the conference of neu-

OF the league OF nations covenant
which provides for coercive meas

that force might be used only in
case of necessity that it might be

Nomic pressure had been insufficient
and that small states might decline
to take warlike steps.

PSris, March 22,--The meeting of

discussion of peace difference COM

cording to the Paris press this

criticism in this mornings news

and Newfoundland Delay Departure for Trip and

Dubious.

the airship remained aloft and COW
cred 1885 miles in 40 hours, partly
by drifting with the wind.
Experts have determined that an
airship starting from ireland either
will have to fly far to the north to
within $50 miles off the Greenland
tip, where the cold at this season is
about II degrees below zero and
where engine trouble is likely, or
swing around in a great southern
circle via the African coast and the
Azores, and making the landing at
Pensacola, Fla, or the United States
naval base at Guantanamo.
This southern alternative means
a passage of 5000 miles-not pro-
hibitive. but problematical even if
supplies are taken on at French
West Africa.
"The prevailing winds over the
southern route at this season, how
ever are all favorable. The airship
navigator could count upon drifting
from the Azores to America, if
necessary.
"An aeroplane with a capacity Of
no miles per hour would be able to
weather 50-mile gale If it were not
too long protracted. But his aero
competitor from Ireland westward
has to reckon upon an excessive gas
consumption if he encounters per-
sistent head winds from the New
foundland air reefs. Guessing these
conditions, but without full knowl-
edge, H. G. Hawker recently left
England with Lieutenant Sopwith,

London, March 22.-"Beware the

message, accompanying peteorlog-

that the recent charting Of this men

British experts experimenting with

THE air minister and the admiral

land and east of Newfoundland,
wherein the winds vary from Is to
60 miles per hour as high up in the
air as 5000 feet. which is the highest
practical flying level at this season,
said a British official to me.
Counting the average cruising

of its engines broke down and the
