TIE GERMANS ARE COMING
By Charles r. DriseolI

A German flying yacht is being tested in the Baltic.
1t is the first flying boat to be constructed with a
keel like that Of a ship, and TO be designed with a pri-
mary view to seaworthiness.
This ship can fly. and f1y fast and far. But be-
sides that, it is claimed that it can battle out a major
storm on the surface Of the ocean.
The Germans, you see, are taking the matter Of
transoceanic flight seriously. 1t is a stunt to fly
across a deep ocean in a machine that viii surely 70
straight to the bottom II il has to ahght on the water.
It takes great courage TO perform such a stunt. But
if you are planning to 20 and get back with cargo or
passengers. you must be able at least 70 keep afloat
when you alight on rough water.
The Roman type Of plane is designed for commercial
flights between Europe and the Americas. IL will fly
$50 miles an hour. has three powerful motors, carries
1000 gallons Of fuel and 100 gallons Of oil, in addition
to a crew Of five, a dozen passengers, and several tons
Of mail or freight. Loaded, the ship weighs twenty
five tons.
The Germans expect to use a fleet Of these flying
yachts for commerce and mail purposes between Ger
many and Argentine.
The Germans also are completing a ~diriEible that
will presently make a little test flight around the
world. This ship. and several of the same type, prob
ably will be used in commerce between Germany and
the South American r~epcblics.
In the world of trade, the fellow who can get the
goods by enterprise and fair dealing is entitled to the
profits. This German initiative and enterprise. carried
on under great difficulties. demands our admiration.
But it demands. too, our competition.
What are we Americans doing about the South
American trade? Are we going to let it all fly away
to Europe? Political influence follows commercial
prestige. South America is in a fair way to becoming
European rather than American.
