Drawbaek.
The greatest drawback to high
dowlopment of the aircraft service
‘ at the Army today. Senator Bing~
ham declared, is that 1hr; Army
General Stair is alarming ignorant
of all details of awation. and that
1 before the war, during war and up
to the present time the General
Stnfl is entirely lacking in an atom
. of sympathy for the aviation serv-
" ice.
All officers of the Army and Nmy
should be trained in the use of air-
cratt. Senator Bingharn declared.
and all members of the Army Gen-
oral sac should be required to have
undergone at least six months train-
ing at an aviation training school.
All (3860!: at the \Vest Point Mili—
tary Academy and at the Annapolis
Nunvi Academy should be thorough-
ly trained in the science of handling
airplanes. he asserted.
“I cannot understand why. in this

given so much training in Cavalry

cured Senator Bingham. "No offic-
or should be permitted to command
an Artillery unit unless he has a full
knowledge of aviation.
Train Cadets.
"A'Viation should certainly be a
part of the training of every An-
39011! cadet. Naval officers should
be compelled to know as much
about the handling of ‘Ircruft 35

are as necessary for the Naty u

‘ Senator Bingham placed much
stress on the jealousy of the Army
General Staff towards the aviation
service and its entire lack of sym~
path! with it.
In response to a question by Chair-
man Randolph Perkins of the com-
» :nittoo. as to whether he had over
seen any evidence of sympathy to
the aviation service by the general

had never witnessed a single in-

cers to fly or by including among its
members a relativeLy large number
of pilots and observers. so that there
will be Just as sympathetic an no.
derstanding of the air service as
there is of the cavalry or field ar-
tillery." asserted Senator Bingham.
“There is no excuse for not hav-
ing on the Army general stair men

received the distinguished service
medal for his remarkable work in
organising aviation instruction in
France. knows the whole'problsm of

tom and who did more towards the
success of aviation in France than
any other officer in the American
Expeditionary Force." Bingham con-
tinued.
“In the past all officers of field
artillery were "mounted" officers
and wore spurs. In the future they
should all be able to wear the wings
of a pilot or an observer. The eyes
of the artillery must be under the
control of the same general omcer
who directs the activities of the guns

vorce military aeronautics from the
Army."
‘I'nspprociated Humor.

One of the surprising things in
reading our exchange newspapers
yesterday was to find in the "New

to rebuke Secretary Hutchins for his
clever remark. at the Yale dinner in
this city. that the trouble in New
Haven was not with the undergrad-
uates but with the graduates them-
selves when they return to New Ha-
ven. This was an address made to
a body of graduates, who were
ready for anything to laugh at. and
who appreciated all of Mr. Hutchins'
clever hits The surprise is to find

is one of the brightest and wittiest
of Yale graduates. unable to sense
