THE MOVING CROWD

The increasing number of people
who rent farm for the term of a
year, and who soon move on some
where else. is one Of the most unfor-
tunate features of country life. Every
time one meets one of these outfits
dragging dilapidated furniture over
the road, one is tempted to stop them,
and ask if they ever heard that a
rolling stone gathers no moss.
Three moves are said to be equal
to fire. The damage to furniture
is something, but is only an incident.
The real loss is that when man
settles in a new location. he has to
change over his methods to fit his
locality. Moving involves great
deal of work, and there is at least
a months time lost in every such
change.

NAVAL PROBE
into DISASTER
contInued Dom FLrst Page.

naval affairs committees. however.
said they believed no further funds
for dirigible construction should be
granted now and the work on the
zR-1 should be held up IL not drop
ped altogether.
Naval officers today declared this
country can now make airships as
well as the British, and that the
American product will be infinitely
safer because helium instead Of hy-
drogen will be used as the lifting
agent
Although they were without spe-
cifc reports, naval officers believe
the ZR-2 broke and then the highly
explosive hydrogen let go. With
helium the broken airship would
have dropped to the ground. but the
passengers would have had time to
use their parachutes. officers said.
Congressman say, however, that
they doubt the feasibility of the big
dirigible as a war machine.
II believe that all work on the
zR-1 should be stopped until the
cause OF the ZR-2 disaster is deter
mined" said Representative Kelly,
Michigan. member of the House
naval affairs committee. "Plans Of
the two ships are very similar and
the House has insisted that work on
the zR-1 be slowed up until it was
determined whether the ZR-2 would
be a success.
Personally I doubt the war fea-
sibility of the big dirgible, It seems
to me the money could be better
spent by building more airplanes.
The big dirgib'e is too much OF a
target for the enemy and its opera
ton apparently is as yet too dan
gerous"
Representative Oliver. Alabama,
another member of the committee
agreed with Kelly.
The cost of the ZR-2 has been
estimated at s2,5OO.OOO. What the
loss to this government is has not
yet been determined. Although
the big ship was not turned over to
/ the navy. this country has paid part
Of her construction cost.
Already appropriations totaiine
100000 have been made for the
ZR-1, but contracts calling for ths
expenditure of s1.8O0.OOO have beer
signed. The huge hangar at Lake
hurst for the two ships has beer
