in war is not greatly enhanced by the cooperation of aircraft in one form or another
 Gunnery-spotting planes are in effect high observation posts for gun spotters such as are found atop every battleship. But the spotter in the plane can often clearly see what the spotter on the ship can- not sec at all. Scouting planes are merely mobile lookout stations.
 Bombing airplanes perform ex- actly the same basic function that guns perform to throw destruc- tive projectile against the enemy. The difference lies in the fact that the ship equipped with airplanes for this purpose can strike the enemy at approximately 10 times the range that is possible with or dinary gun fire.
 The torpedo plane is essentially mobile torpedo tube. The con- ventional torpedo vessel, which uses launching tubes affixed to her decks, can deliver a torpedo attack only by placing herself and her en- tire ships company in danger of desttuction by defending gun fire. With the use of planes the vessel may work well out beyond the range of opposing gun fire
 Smoke-laying aircraft are en- ployed for the same reason that

The matter was brought 0 my attention and the cash was turned over at my request. No further games were played in which he couple participated for the re- nainder of the voyage. The victim of swindle of this type sometimes takes his medicine rather than let

Settling disputes also go to the captain. One that caused me con- siderable embarrassment for a time vas the case of a woman who left valuable dog with the butcher The butcher, by the way, takes ;harge of dogs for the voyage. The trip was rough. The woman became sick. Meanwhile the dog had four pups, three of which lied. They were cast overheard. When the woman recovered she was told of the disposition of the dead pups. She refused to believe the story, declaring that the pups were still alive and that some stew ard was keeping them to sell in port because anyone could tell by looking at the mother that they were very valuable dogs. I do not know if she ever believed the story out do know that when we trans port canaries and bird dies a wing is clipped and presented to the consignee as evidence. The same with foxes. The tail of the animal is cut off and submitted as absolute evidence of death.
 Then there was a time when the captain performed marriages at sea. but even before the practice was abolished by the Shipping Board I had decided to give it up because they did not always seem ito take. :" Sailors should confine their tying of knots to ropes, I think. My first marriage was performed in the Eng fish chanel enroute from Cher bourg to Southampton. The parties concerned were on the staff of the League of Nations They had to be American citizens, of course, to be married on an American ship. The formality is very much like that ashore except that the words "ac- cording to the laws of the sea" are used instead of the state in which the ceremony is taking place. Six months later the couple returned to the United States to get a divorce.
 The life of the captain also has it's humorous sides. I was making 9 routine inspection when I dis covered the ships bootblack indus triously polishing the shoes that were just outside of a stateroom door.
 You have a room to polish shoes in,Y | said. eWhy don't you go be- low to do your work?v
 Its impossible, sir he explain ed, these shoes belong to Scotch man in this cabin and he is hold ing the laces on the other side of the door" It was not right for me to stop the man i'll his work. That is part of service to passen- gers.

smoke-laying destroyers and cruis CTS are employed The only inn portant distinction is that when planes are used to lay smoke, the job is done quicker, the target of- fered the enemy is smaller and fewer men are placed in danger.
 Fighting aircraft have the same mission that is assigned to anti aircraft guns mounted on the decks of the surface ships. Both are de- signed to destroy enemy aircraft Fighting airplanes, however, are a far more effective defense against air attack than anti-aircraft guns
 The airplane in naval operations is at once gun, a vehicle, high observation post, torpedo tube, a depth-charge protector, a mine layer and a smoke-screen layer The field of naval aircraft opera tions at sea is as wide as the navy itself, no wider.
