war ended before the arplane really came
into it's own as fighting unit not through
the fault of any individual, but rather be-
cause there was not enough cloth to make
the suit Still, under the pressure and in
spiraton of war, American inventive genius
set down to its credit some remarkable de-
velopments notable among them the Liberty
engine, accepted even to-day as the best of
its kind, but including also various features
Of technical character.
When the war ended so for the most part
did aircraft development. What we got in
the war we still of course have, but the
Impetus once destroyed set the airplane
back into secondary thought again, with
the result that improvements have been
fewer and fewer. while conflict over what
to do with the aerial forces of 1he two fight
ing organizations, the army and navy, have
increased.
Much of what is true in the army is
true in the navy. Except for the group en-
gagged in army aviation, almost entirely
confined to the 1000 officers in the ser
vice. the disposition is to check it's spread
so that IL may be kept on par with such
forces as field artillery, the cavalry and
the infantry. There Is little or no sym
pathy with the agitation for separate air
service, such as the extremists advocate
Aircraft is accepted as a potential fighting
force, but no more so than the other army
units. 1t would be unfair to cay that
those who follow this line of thought do
not have good arguments, for they have.
1t is, in the main, a matter of broad policy
10 be determined without prejudice and
with a fun knowledge OF the facts in the
case.
There probably Is less sentiment in the
navy for the creation OF an independent
air force than in the army. The reason
is that the navy naturally deals with
problems individual to itself, the whole
built UP on the operation of surface fight
ing craft. involving peculiar conditions en-
countered only at sea, many of them highly
technical. To send out flier not trained
in the science Of navigation, where the use
of compass comes as second nature, for
instance, would in the view Of navy officers
be the most extreme folly. Further, they
say, there are other special requirements
for flers in the navy service, among them
the ability to recognize the various types
Of combat and other floating craft, the
strategical formation Of enemy fleets and
the like In all OF this also there is con-
siderable merit.
IL these arguments are to be accepted In

to call, knowing that the insects will con-
unue to gather as long as he cares to feed?"
1t seemed hopeless to attempt to solve
this problem in whippoorwill psychology,
but presently 1t solved itself, for while the
winged dreadnought was making one of his
circling raids there came a "whippoorwill''
from the nearby darkness that sent him
hurryfng away in that direction as rapidly
as possible.
After short silence. while the birds were
probably arranging their plan Of campaign,
they both returned to the attack Now a
bird circled the light about every fifteen
seconds, and no time was lost in calling
The swarm of insects would no sooner COL
lect about the light after one of the deadly
swoops than a bird would come volplaning
into it's midst again. The birds had estab-
lshed their lookout perch on a tall electric
light pole and took turns flying into that
swarm. One would perch there while the
other flew about and as its mate approa ched
on the homestretch the first bird would start
away from the post and be on its way
toward the light while the insects were as
scmbling.
that jerks walked over and took UP his
stand almost under the pole: yet they flew
back and forth as fearlessly as II there
were no human being within miles. One of
the birds was a female, and so jerks de-
cided that Mr.. William had arrived on the
scene first and had been so anxious to share
his plenty that he had kept calling until the

fighting arms. Perhaps that would be
ideal, but the chief issue involved is one of
expense. and there is limit to which the
United States and any other nation, for that
matter. viii go in the upkeep of an aerial or
any other fleet.
It Is not the pleasant thing to say, but
the fact remains that one of the seldom
mentioned elements in the objection to a
unification Of the air services is the natural
desire for authority. The disposition OF
those higher up in both the army and the
navy Is to hold on to what they have so
long as It Is possible for them to do So
This feature is hardly worth considering
when 1t comes to doing the thing that is
right for the country. but ii is well to keep
It in mind as it influences the whole.
In view of all the elements, it is hardly
likely at this time that a completely inde-
pendent air service could be obtained in the
face Of all the opposition arrayed against II,

and it Is, in fact. doubtful if it would be
desirable. There is. however, a middle
ground which seems to have merit and
which will come up for consideration by
the Congressional Joint Committee on Rer
organization through the proposed consoli-
dation of the War and Navy departments
into one, to be known as the Department
of National Defence.
The types of airplanes now of proven
worth In the fighting services are not many.
There are, first, the small pursuit airplanes,
carrying one or two men, and, second, the
heavier bomb and torpedo carrying air.
planes, making up the second line. The
small aircraft, making up perhaps go or
even 70 per cent of any air force, are in
tended for scouting and, because Of their
speed and maneuvring ability, for ridding

clear the heavier airplanes. with their

There are throughout the country
numerous small concerns-most of them

stage of safety, and some Of them even held
together by wire They crash frequently
with persons who are unaware OF the in
ferior character of the machines. Most of
them have been all right in the beginning,
but they have been used until they are no
longer fit for flying. Then .oo these ire
sponsible pilots have not the means, as the
Federal Government has. to retain expert
mechanics to keep them in the pink of con-
dition. There is no question that the lack
of inspection and licensing of aircraft Is a
national menace.
Representative Hicks IN. ", member
of the Naval Affairs Committee of the House
and airplane enthusiast, not long ago
introduced bill to correct this condition.
The bill is pending, but there is hope of
early action. While there is talk of placing
the licensing work in the hands of the De-
partment of Commerce. since 1t naturally
might fall there as a commercial enterprise.
yet it is possible that It may go to the inde-
pendent air bureau contemplated for the
army and navy. 1t is detail. That such
a system of licensing is required cannot be
denied. 1t simply is in line with the national
policy of regulating the equipment of public
carriers such as railroads and steamship
lines.
The War Department has issued recently
general orders restricting flying over towns
and assemblages OF people, including people
gathered on foot and In vehicles around the
borders of flying demonstrations The rules
are:
1. Flying prohibited below An altitude of
1000 feet except in taking off. Plane must
be flown in position from which glide with
dead motor can be made to SAFETY.
g. Strict inspection of every part Of plane

tive work
The principle is the same both on land
and sea. The same types of airplanes used
In the army are used in the navy. too. The

than those used in the army The navy

does On the other hand, the army has
flying boats which just the same as
those IN the navy. The development soon
or airplane carriers for the navy will per-
nit the freer use over water of airplanes
without fotation equipment
In view of all this, 1t seems logical so
far as equipment is concerned that the
army and navy should dovetail their inter-
ests in aircraft. building up together po-
tential fighting force to be used either on
land or sea. Together they might have a
force capable of air domination, while alone
they would have mere handfuls of airplanes
in no sense potential against a nation that
would build up a mighty air force. Particu-
larly is this true of the fast pursuit planes
which in the end offer the key to air con-
troll, capable as they are of running down
and destroying the heavy bombing craft
that have not the speed or the ability to
dodge in the event of attack.
Much has been said about the British
experiment with an independent air force

operation with the army and the navy.
1t is a matter of serious doubt whether IL
would be safe for a country such as the
United States to put it's full reliance in
aircraft as a means of defence at this stage
of the development. The value of air
planes for scouting purposes over land and
water Is a proven thing, but so far as bomb
ing goes-this has been made more evident
by the results of the experiments Just
finished off the Virginia Capes-it Is in its
infancy. Yet 1t Is accepted that the de-
velopment In this regard is merely matter
OF time. The problems involved are largely
mathematical-the application of instru-
ments already developed to make the matter
Of dropping heavy bombs one of precision.
AS an essential element in a programme
of concentration the question of commercial
aviation is important. 1t already is recog-
nized by the Post Office Department in the
maintenance of the Air Mail Service, with
its coast to coast route In daily operation.
While commercial aviation u an accom-

TT is unnecessary to go very far into the
subject of aviation in the United States
to perceive that this new factor in war
and commerce is much in the position of a
stepchild who is retained as a member of
the family for the looks of the thing but
whose eternal presence brings sigh after
sigh and inward mutterings of despair
Other nations of the world are making far
more rapid strides in the development and
operation of aircraft than the United States,
where petty jealousies and lack of public
concern prevent the cashing in on the
natural mechanical advantages and the
plotting skill that are so well known in
America This country is losing the leader

group willing to sacrifice time and money

further behind in the parade than now is
the case.

Lack of Federal Regulation
Retards Commercial Aviation

Strange as 1t may SEEM the most notable
subordination Of aviation is in the army and
the navy both of which maintain their own
lying services but which keep them so far
as possible in the background as coordinat-
ing branches Of the old time lighting arms
So far as commercial aviation Is concerned
II is running wild for want OF Federal regu-

those few enthusiasts who attempt to main
tain proper equipment and piicting and a
reckless, death courting livelihood for those
who are not SO particular as to standards.
The time is at hand. It generally is agreed
by those who have made a survey OF the
present status OF aviation in the United
States, for greater Federal attention to the
subject, If for no other reason than national
defence There Is promise Of such attention
