Poor health makes you nervous,

temporarily the floor of an animated
debating. society, says the Daily
News.
For Coast Desenses
There was one point on which
everyone appeared to be agreed:
that the development OF the air
plane would not make naval war
fare cheaper by leading to the
abolition of the battleship, but would
make it more expensive by adding to
its completely. There was evidence
of the necessity OF having more air
planes for coast defense.
IAN this means,' said one en-
thusiast,, us that the poor Old tax
payer will have to put his hands
still deeper into his pockets"
That was the general view. The
subject was covered by a naval Of
ficer who said
'.As far as the navy is concerned
the development of Z the airpIane is
merely a repetition 1of the develop
ment of the submarine. In both cases
there is Quick development and then
a halt. The battleship confronts an
other menace; steps will be taken to
meet it,
mo doubt the thickness of the
deck will be increased and personnel
will be better protected from attack
from above. No doubt. too, the air
plane. like the submarine, will score
successes. An occasional battleship
will be sunk. But to suggest that
the airplane can make the battleship
obsolete-I'm afraid the taxpayer can
look for no relief in that direction"
