Re- cently complaints have been made of some of the airmen who have taken to swooping down to much lower levels than this law allows, causing great anxiety. These flyers have even taken to doing stunts over the Polo Grounds during the ball games at low altitudes. They have flown over the parks where the people have been try- ing to enjoy themselves on picnics. Now the word has gone out to enforce the rule against low flying. But the police are puzzled. There is an aerial squad, and the thing that bothers it now is how to prove a case against a swooper. Every policeman knows how wide is the difference of opinion as to the speed of motor cars. An arrested motorist will rarely by any chance acknowledge to more than twelve or fifteen miles an hour, while a police- man is ready to swear that he was go- ing thirty or forty. So how about the height limit? Five thousand feet is not easy to measuré with the eye In the air. There are no structures even in New York as high as that. It is es much? For this happens to many people who enter street cars in crowds and who either intentionally or other- wise pass the fare boxes or the out- stretched hands of the conductors. ‘They may remember for a few days. Possibly they may feel gratified at having obtained a free ride. But to remember for twelve years is more than really is to be expected of human nature. Such a memory argues an extremely tender conscience. Probably this act never faded in recollection. It grew. on the contrary, as it was magnified in importance. The records of the Treasury Depart- ment In this city contain many cases of this sort. The conscience fund has received sums ranging all the way from a few cents to many thousands of dollars from persons who have brooded over lapses.
