THIS WAR OF SCIENCE
Of all the many military projects
that our government has undertaken
since the fateful April day when we.
[declared war, the most interEs'ling
and appealinz to the popular m’nt! is
the development of the air fleet. This
fleet has three functions: (1) Scout
work, location of enemy defenses and
direction of artillery fire; (2) fight:
ing and driving back the enemy planes
that undertake the same purposes ov-
{er our lines; l3) bombing attacks in
the rear. .
The first two purposes are neces-
sarv but auxiliary to' other forces.
The third undertaking is new, and
promises to reach heights of effec-
tiveness acnrcclv touched as yet. The
past summer has seen those attacks
on a atrial! scale, but we should be
’ahlc; to Increase their power and range
tremendously. ,
g The trouble with these attacks as
now carried on by the English and
3 French, in the limit of tho freight-can
WENMUWQ?“
l
freight-carrying capacity is secured
in these, estimated at 10 pounds per
horse-power. Such a plane, therefore,
should be able to carry three tons of
explosives anti to accomplish 20 times
it?!» destruction pogsihle front one at
ithc ordinarv craft now in use.
Such a pianc should be a...c to deliv~
or an explmive to any point near or
far from the trench line, with an accu-
racy and destructlveness greater than
'that of any gun yet invented. When

Ellie Boche will think twice about the.
power of Uncle Sam's despised “wood-
