The enthusiasm over airpane progress is not non-
mous. In the midst of the chorus of praise for such
achievements those of the transatlantic fiers comes
"a discordant note A resident Of Harbor Grace New
FOundand, writing to ST. Johns paper just after Al
cocks plane had started for Ireland said:
Il wish to voice protest against an airplane being
allowed to fly the city, frightening our poultry and
thereby interfering with the supply of eggs so important
during the present shortage of food This nuisance is
only beginning and is the time to stop it, before the
airpane becomes great pest the bicycle and the
motor carr
The evil he complains of has already been noticed in
the United States though it does not to have cited
any such vigorous protest in this country An arpane is
not unnaturay mistaken by timerous flocks for chick
en- hawk, causing panic, and possibly lowered eggpro
ducton in many poultry pen and farmyard.
Something surely ought to be done about it. If air
planes continue to interfere with the hens peace of mind
how they be tolerated in any orderly community? AS
an extreme illustration Of pending catastrophe think
what airpane whizzing the o. A. c. campus might
do if the eggaying occupation of that world champion
hen should be disturbed!
