Extended flights to prove the werth of airships for both military and commercial purposes are plan- ned. The flights, navy officials have intimated, may be made across the Pacific to the Hawaiian islands if the west coast base is approved. Cost of the base is estimated at $5,000,000. Since the new airships are to be ed to the fleet for tactical navy officials say a base should be provided on the west coast, where the ships would be close to the battle fleet and its air- craft squadrons. Better conditions prevail over the Pacific than over the Atlantic, which would make feasible the op- regular schedule between Califor- nia and the Hawaiian islands.
