AERIAL NAVIGATION.
Commercial air navigation is com
ing and the United States must pre
pare to meet that issue, declared
Colonel William C. Hensley recently
in a report to the Air Service, Unit
ed States army, from Germany,
where he is studying dirigibles.
“Airships are now possible in any
kind or condition of weather," Col
onel Hensley wrote. “No weather
conditions, except a strong cross
hangar wind, prevent the Bodensee, j
the commercial air liner built since j
the armistice by the Zeppelin Air
ship corporation at Frederichshafen, I
on Lake Constance, from making its ,
daily flight (390 miles) to Staaken. j
13 miles from Berlin.
"Because she flies between Ber
lin and the natural outlet to Swit
zerland, the accommodations are at
a premium. Bookings have been;
made four weeks in advance at 475 !
!
marks.
“The design of the Bodensee is j
the latest in airships; so far ad-;
vanced over anything I have seen
that one is led to express the
opinion that, in airship construction
<and operation as well),, all other
countries are mere ‘babes in the
woods’ compared to the Germans.
“Our airship construction and op
eration should be patterned after
the most efficient system. There is
no doubt in my mind that that sys
tem lies in Germany.
••commercial air na us»uon
coming, and we mast meet that
issue very soon. Let us be pre
pared to choose our course so that
we shall make as few mistakes as
possible. The building up of the
present small commercial enterprise
in Germany has meant numerous
heart-breaking experiences.
“Millions of marks have been lost
in the beginning, and lives of mem
bers of crews have been lost, but
let it be said, to the eternal credit
of the man with the fixed idea and
of his subordinates, that not a
single passenger carried on a Zep
pelin airship has been injured 01
killed—and to date the total carriec
has reached the sum of 140,000.
“This statement does not mear
that casualties will not iccur. lr
responsible boys can take airship
into the air and bring them down
in flames in the heart of a larg'
city, or careless officers and mei
may explode a dirigible on th
ground and burn a number of spec
tators, but we can at least conduc
our sendee along scientific, know
principles, that can be obtained fror
an intimate study of the Germa
methods, and thus minimize th
number of disasters.
“America is by nature the chose
spot of all the world for commei
cial airship work; with her gree
expanse of territory within, with he
far-flung territories and insular po
sessions, with her commercial poss
bilities in Central and South Amer
ca, with her centers of populatic
disposed so as to require more rapi
transport than yet in operation, wil
her push and energy that bids f<
supremacy in all things good, win
her supply of helium gas unequal*
in all the world, should bid stror
for that which is, unquestionably,
her way in the path of progress.”
BERLIN'.—The Berlin police are
continuing their campaign against
immoral or suggestive exhibitions.
The latest raid was made upon a
big bathing carnival. Motor trucks
were required to carry to the police
stations the dozen principals and
400 spectators, all of whom were
arrested.
The police also have discovered
another undesirable exhibition in one
of the cafes where the night life ol
Berlin has been brightest. Both
these displays are characterized as
worse than the ’•explanation" films
which still prevail in Berlin. Th«
evil will not down and the average
resident of Berlin, when it is called
to his attention, shrugs his shoulder:
and remarks, “Another fruit of tht
revolution."
A noted physician asserts tha'
those taking part in these exhibi
tions are not normal.
