Laborite’s Cousins
Emphasize Extremes
of the English Life
LONDON, June 18.—(^P)—As an in
dication of the character of Eng
lish life of today, Commander P
Harrington Edwards, chairman o:
the Labor Co-Partnership Associa
tion, stated publicly recently that h(
had a cousin who was the grandsor
of a duke and another cousin out oi
work and drawing the governmenl
dole.
“It may sound rather snobbish ol
me to admit this,” said the comman
der, “but such are the facts. Un
der such conditions class feeling
should be out of the question.”
England’s Air Chief
Draws Dire Picture
of Aerial Warfare
CAMBRIDGE, Eng., June IS.—(#»)
—The assertian by Air Marshal Sir
Hugh Trenchard, chief of the Brit
ish air staff, that he would do away
with aviation altogether if he could,
has caused no end of comment thru
out the country. Sir Hugh was speak
ing to the Cambridge University
Aeronautical Society, and his con
tention was that all the good done
thru aviation commercially would
not make up for the reign of terror
and death which would be accom
plished thru this force if there
(should be another world war, when
great bombs and poisonous gases
would be strewn upon almost help
less cities.
Sir Hugh reviewed the problem of
the air defense of the British em
pire and its potentialities during the
next 50 yeans, speaking very frank
ly and plainly indeed upon the
main principles which must guide
the nation in its right and economi
cal use of aviation.
“I do not want you to think that
I look upon the air as a blessing
altogether,” asserted Sir Hugh. Con
tinuing he said, much to the aston
ishment of his listeners: ‘‘It may be
more of a blessiing for this empire
than for any other country in the
world, but I feel that all the good
it will do in civil life cannot bal
ance the harm that may be done
in war by it, and if I had the cast
ing vote I would say abolish the
air.”
This particular phrase of the air
chief's remarks caused more news
paper comment than has any utter
ance of an official of his standing
in years.
Relative to a European war in
which England might be seriously at
tacked, the- air chief said: “The
great problem to be faced is that
in the first clash of the opposing
forces the casualties would be very
high, and the question of replacing
the reserves would be difficult. In
fact they would be almost insuper
able, not only for this nation, but
! also for any other nation.”
In the next war in a single day,
the speaker said he believed, more
bombs could be dropped in this
country than was done in the four
years of the last great conflict. While
the airplane was the most offensive
weapon that had ever been invent
| ed, Sir Hugh averred, it was a sliock
ly bad weapon of defense against
the airplane itself. Still, he believed
! it was the only one that had yet
i been discovered, and, even in these
, days of scientific improvements and
| inventions, he had grave doubts
i whether any other weapon would
; take its place for another 100 years.
“Remember that nothing you can
| do or say will stop all the benefits
I of aviation, or all the horrors of it.
I am sure that the empire is in the
| forefront of the nations of the world
! in the air.”
The Royal Air Force would not be
made the great weapon it must be
without the backing of the nation,
said the air chief, and he was con
vinced that one of the most import
ant means was through the larger
seats of learning. For that reason
the government was eager to start
at Oxford and Cambridge air force
units as a beginning, and the offi
cials hoped to do the same at other
universities at a later date.
British Temperance
Workers Proudly
Point To America
HULL, Eng., June 18.—(£>)—Prohi
bition in the United States has prov
1 ed to be the handmaiden of thrift
home building, happiness and pros
perity, and it would go a long way
in England toward solving the prob
• lem of unemployment, said Gerald
France, the president, addressing the
National and Commercial Temper
■ ance Union here at its annual con
! ference.
Mr. France said he rejoiced in the
sinking of the vessels “flying the Jol
ly Roger of the bootlegging frater
nity,” and he hoped' those men whc
financed this traffic would lose ev
ery penny they possessed, rathei
than that “the fair name of Britain
should be draged into the mud ol
international treachery."

English Expert
Forecasts Radio
Control of Raiders
MANCHESTER, Eng., June 19.—
(TP)—Dr. L. L. S. Palmer, chief of
the applied physics department of
the College of Technology, Manches
ter, told the Manchester Missionary
and Philosophicaal Society recently
that in the next war that which was
accomplished by the British in the
Zeebrugge raid in 1918, could all be
done by wireless.
A soldier in a dugout in England
could send out a fleet of boats, said
Dr. Palmer, guide the vessels by ra
dio to a certain point, make them
discharge bombs and then bring them
back without airplane observation.
The course of the ships would have
to be plotted upon a map, but with
airplane observation a raid could be
made against the enemy with great
precision. The speaker explained
that in controlling a torpedo aimed
for example, at a submarine, the
tornedo could be seen all the time,
and if it went the wrong way a tap
of a key would alter its course and
| send it in the direction of the tar
j get.
