Americans Praise
Nonstop Fliers

American aviators and aero clubmen
of New York joined yesterday in ex-
oressions Of highest praise for Captain
!Alcock and Lieutenant Brown, the first
iiers to bridge the Atlantic in a single
hop"
Alan R. Hawlev, president of the
Aero Club of America. called it a
magnificent flight" He said: "We
are glad to see that the land planes
are able to fly nearly 1000 miles where
1t would be impossible to make land
ing. This means they can fly to any
part of the world almost under any
circumstances. No doubt Alcock and
Brown will receive The Daily Nails
$4,000 prize-and they we'll deserve
it"
Augustus Post, secretary of the Aero
Club, said
I'VE are delighted at the success of
Captain Alcock's flight. We have al
ready seen what the seaplane can do,
and this flight of Alcock's shows how
tremendous are the possibilities when
we can use land planes to cross the
ocean. ] have no doubt that when the
American army land plane starts it's
flight from the Atlantic to the Pacific
It will go through without a hitch. In
flying on the great trade routes of
the world the land and sea planes of

that 1t will take us t~o Yeas TO build
a ship and construct hangers and be
ready to start experiments which we
could commence immediately if we had
money to buy dirigible outright
I'VE also had planned to make use of
Zeppelin paraphernaia that fell into
the hands of the Allies as result Of
the armistice. 1t is no secret that one
Of our aims was to profit by the use the
Germans made of their Zeppel;ns dur
ing the battle Of Jutland
"We do not expect the R-34 to re-
main in this country longer than a day
or two, part of which will necessarily
be required to replenish her supplies
The navy, instesd of the Aero Club of
America, will entertain the British
ficrs
I'VE expect to assist them with at
least three or four hundred men from
our Atlantic air stations, and if the
weather is bad it may take 900 men to
handle the big ship, which is as high
as the Treasury Building and several
times as long. 1t will be absolutely i'm
possible, in the time we nave, 10 i'm

Daniels's statement. Part Of his let
ter to Chairman Page says:
81 regret to inform you that an ap-
preparation of $15. 900 600 will not suf-
fee to permit the construction OF large
'rlgids' in this country, and possibly
1t will not even allow the beginning OF
rigid programme. There is not on
this continent at this time a dirigibe
hangar large enough to house the Eng
llsh R34, and the visit of that vessel
to our shores must be curtailed be-
cause of the possibility of the ship
being wrecked in the event of occur
renee OF bad weather
The rigid dirigible has been of
splendid service during the war. Both
Germany and Great Britain used them
successfully Admiral Jellicoe stated
that rigid dirigible was worth two
light cruisers, and it is of interest to
note the statement of the British Ad-
miralty to the effect that at the battle
Of Jutland the German feet, although
inle' Tor in numbers. was able to escape
complete destruction because of the
good use of her scouting airships.
Il wish to invite your attention par
ticularly to the Importance of aircraft
operations with the feet.
Spot ing from aircraft increases the
eunnery efficiency at long ranges
tremendously, and gunnery efficiency
perhaps is, more than anything else,
the real measure of efficiency of the
fleet. Several times in our recent feet
exercises, low visibility or smoke
screens absolutely prohibited spotting
from ships and all spots had to be
aiken from the spoilers in the air
craft overhead.
THE Improvement OF the ability y.
spot is one of the compelling reasons
for shooting ct longer ranges. A naval
action undoubtedly will be begun in
clear weather at ranges of more than
10000 yards. and spctting from high in
the air will be Of paramount impor-
tance
LAS regards lighter than air craft. we
are ready to build on reasonable scale
on practically equal terms with the rest
Of the world. The type is sufficiently

Many high officials of the govern

Viscount Northcliffe. donor Of the
$4,000 prize won by Alcock and
Brown by their successful transatlan-
tic fight, sent the following message
tonight to the fiers:
"a very hearty welcome to the
pioneer of a direct Atlantic flight.
Your journey with your brave com
panion, Whitten Brown, is a typical
exhibition Of British courage and or

that your wonderful journey is a
warning to cable monopolists and
others to realize that within the next
few years we shall be less dependent

AT the American Flying Club. II
East Thirty-eighth Street, veteran
aviators of the war spoke unstinted
admiration for the courage Of the two
filers. Lieutenant E. c. Parsons, for
merly of the Lafayette Escadrille and
winner of war medals for aerial
trlumphs over the Germans, said
"The American Club is delighted
with the success of the Nickers-Vimv
flight. The nerve of the pilot and the
navigator is beyond compare, and they
deserve every prize and every bit OF
the reputation they Will acquire by
their unparalleled feat"
Lieutenant Commander Coil, naval
aviator, said: What better suretv
could one ask for in considering q
blimp for transatlantic flight than the
achievement of the Vickers- Vimy
flight"
Lieutenant F. K. Dillon, an army
hier, said: "The flight is nothing short
of a really remarkable achievement"
Lieutenant Arthur Warde, army
aviator, said: "The transatlantic non
stop flight from this continent to the
European continent within twenty
four hours has been accomplished, ane
that means the greatest step in moderr
transportation facilities. 1t is one o.
the forcibe factors toward the de

had met disaster similar to that of
Hawker and Grieve.
1t was understood that they had
much more effective wireless apparatus
than Hawker, but those in authority
had reason to believe the wireless was
unsatisfactory. because it had failed to
work in trial fights.
With the return of morning and the
absence OF any news during the night
the feeling grew stronger that dis
aster had occurred, and then came the
bulletin telling of the arrival of the
machine off the Irish coast, after the
exceedingly rapid run Of sixteen hours.
Fliers' Methods Approved
This successful flight fully confirms
the high expectation entertained re-
garding the Nimy -Nickers machine
and its pilots, whose methodical, prac-
teal and unostentatious methods after
their arrival here won general admira-
ton. Without any reflection on other
airmen, it truthfully can be said that
Alcock and Brown were men whose
whole soul was in their work and who
let nothing interfere with their per
Torrance of it. They avoided social
gatherings and stuck closely to their
job. being always about their machine
and their field. Having no business
manager. they had to undertake all
the problems cornected with obtaining
the ground, employing workmen and
arranging for truckage, as we'll as
supervising the erection of the ma
chimes and installation of the various
apparatus.
Alcock had the good judgment to get
alrfeld in one Of the higher areas Of
the city and to convert the area into an
aerodrome almost as large and salts
factory as that which was found for
the Handley Page machine at Harbor
Grace, the utility of which was shown
yesterday when he made a successful
ascent merely from the western section
Of this field without traversing the
greater portion Of it at all.
Manner Inspired Confidence
The manner of Alcock and Brown
was impressive, because OF their quiet
confidence. To see them sprawling on
the ground beside the shed where they
took their last lunch, eating great
hunks OF bread and timed tongue,
drinking coffee and then smoking Gig
arettes. as they talked Of the prospects
q the fight, gave one the impression
that they were man who probably would
achieve what they undertook Acock
tod the writer that with good fortune
he expected to drop down on the Gal
way coast at 5 o'clock this morning,
and the record OF ms arrival shows he
did not err in location and very little in
time
There is great jubiation here over the
achievement. because the people regard
the fight as regaining for Great Brit
ain the frat place in t: transatlantic ava-
TO-, temporarily wrested from her BY
the successful flight Of the American
seaplane across the ocean.
Without dsparaging IN any way the
remarkable success of that trip, it is
empha aszed here that the present
achievement may be counted the frs
real conquest Of the Atlantic, because
it is nonstop flight between the two
worlds, besides the fact that it was

u2is without any backing beyond tina
