Airships are by no means fool- proof, but the devices for steering, | maintaining an cquilibrium and | ascending and descending have been made safe in the hands of competent | men The new Maybach have been given their first trial on this flight, have added tremendously to the ease and certainty of handling. When it is remembered that these great engines can be throttled down from full speed in eight seconds, it will be seen that this alone is a revo. lutionary achievement. Furthermors the reversing of the engines, making t poss actually to brake an air- ship in midair, is another innovation of mendous importance. These, with other changes and improvements of control ke it possibie for me to state that all the major problems of construction have been solved. There is still much to be done roving methods of handling on shore. is will come about by better land- ing masts and by the building of re- volving hangars. As 1 have said these are easily approachable m rical problems, which will cer- tainly be solved The comparative advantages of hy- drogen and helium have been a mat- ter of much d ion in connection with the flight of the ZR-3. Obvious Iy the non-inflammability of helium engines, is 4 tremendous count in favor of the | this gas. But it is very ex- n fact, expensive as to virtually make impossible its use for commercial aviation. It has also a less lifting power than hydrogen. Sctor pensive s0 Favorable to Hydrogen. | Thers remains for consideration the question of the danger involved n the use of hvdrogen, as its lower ost and lifting power obviously give it an advantage. Realizing the menace of an unstable gas, I do not wish to appear as a special pleader for hydrogen, but I will give my ex- perience with it. 1 have made 300 flights in ships in- flated with hydrogen. I have been struck repeatedly by lightning while in midair, and holes have been torn in the gas bag, and I have never yet | experienced or seen an explosion of a { hydrogen-inflated balloon. The fact i<, that the function of high-powered engines acts in some way—possibly by setting up a repellant electric field —which wards off lightning bolts, or renders them harmless if they strike. But there is, of course, danger from hydrogen gas. It is inflammable. Personally 1 believe that a solution may be found by a combination of hydrogen and helium. The shell could be so constructed, in compart- ments, that the upper part would con- tain hyggogen and the under part, over th@fondolas and engines, with greater danger of combustion, could be filled with helium. This appears to me to be a simple and practical solution by which we retain the economic and_lifting power of hy- drogen and with the necessary factor of safety 5 I have based my main deduction as to the dependability of airships on the performance of the ZR-3, when approaching New Foundland. She weathered a 70-mile gale without the slightest sign of giving way or get- ting beyond control. She was in per- fect control every instant of the time. I maintain that a ship that can ride a gale like that can ride anything. Need 100 Per Cent Weather Service. As to navigation, here again there is required only some auxiliary or- ganization, as the scientific work has been done. What is needed is a 100 per cent service of weather reports by radio. And this is all the ships will need. Being shown the low pres- sure ahead, all she has to do is to shoot around it. Meteorological science is now so exact that, given this data, a ship can proceed with almost as much certainty through the gales as that with which an automo- bile can be driven through traffic. When we got reports of bad weather ahead, on the southern route, we had no trouble dodging it and we could have dodged the Newfoundland gale if the reports had continued. The gyroscope is entirely satisfac- tory for airship navigation. It lacks all the drawbacks of the standard ship's compass—particularly the “memory” abberations of the needles, which give a wavering course. - And to aid still further comes the radio beacon. This, with the new Tele- funken position finder, makes it pos- sible for airships to find their way through the skies as one would stroll through country lanes. The Americans have virtually per- fected a detail of airship operation which 1 am convinced will be of su- preme importance. It is the water recovery system, which was recently tried out on the Shenandoah. As the ship burns fuel its load is lightened, and hence it is necessary to release gas to keep her on a level flight. By the American invention, the free hydrogen of the exhaust is tapped, and, combining wjth the oxygen of the air, recovers eight times its own weight, thus forming water, - This en route to Amerl and correspondent of the North American — which | |help but believe that the cont |interest in the engineering problems | present | tober, as it is by no means a favor- NING ., by Hans von Schiller, of the Azores, showing a portion of the motor gondolas.

There is, perhaps, one more impor- tant requirement for the fullest de- velopment of airships. That is the| adaptation of the Diesel engine to | this purpose. It would dispense with the highly inflammable gosoline, as it burns oil, and would, I am con- vinced, give effective driving power. suppose dissertatio about cen- ery have no place in a discussion of mechanical possibilities, but I nnot uous unfolding of overwhelmingly beautiful pictures must be considered an im- portant detail in weighing the future of the i ip, entirely apart from involved. 1 was thrilled again in Forest, the as T never shall be passing over the Black beautiful Valley of the Loire, the foam-wreathed coasts of Spain, the Azores, bleak Newfound- land and New England in the autumn —all a few hours. This possi- bility of combining a thrilling experi- ence with great beautiful vistas of land and sea will, I am sure, lead many to travel in this way who otherwise might not do so. + Predicts Regular Service. There will unquestionably be regu- lar service lines in operation be- tween Europe and South America and Europe and America. I do not think they will give any competition to steamship fines worth consideration. They will carry fast mail, special freight and a few passengers. Nat- urally they wll not provide the comforts of the ocean liners, with our lifting facilities. Probably for some time to come, about 12 pas- ngers will be all that can be car- ried with comfort. Recalling again the performance of the ZR-3, it will be noted that she covered 7,500 Kilometers in 80 hours. This showing was made in spite of the necessity of a wide detour to avoid_the gale. The ship required only 75 hours from Friederickshafen to Boston. From this it will be seen that my estimate of a possible cross- ing in 50 hours is not strained. The best passages of the future will be from west to east, as the pre- vailing winds are westerly. The best time of the vear will be in June. As a matter of fact, it was unfortunate that we were required to cross in Oc- able month. I feel safe in predicting that June honeymooners will find such romance and beauty as they have never known before.

By the Associated Press. PITTSBURGH, October 17.—Search was continued today along a 3-mile stretch of railroad track near here for $8,000 still missing of the more than $60,000 in small bills that was scattered along the tracks Wednesday when a Pennsylvania passenger train ran over a mail pouch containing the money. A total of $52,594 had been recovered last night. The pouch containing the money, ! friendship and which was being sent to the Federal Reserve Bank here by two banks at Ambridge, a suburb, fell from a truck at the Ambridge station across the tracks and was cut to shreds by a passenger train and the money scat- tered along the tracks. Postoffice Inspector George V. Craighead declared that his investi- gation indicated that the destruction of the mail pouch was accidental. QUAKE RECORDED HERE.

" Drink Toast in Ice Wate: Dr. Hugo Eckener, head of the visjt- ing party, replying, said a similar hope that the ship would be a s peace was expressed by prominent Ger- mans before the departure of the ship for the United States. The luncheon was opened with a toast in ice water, offered by Secre- tary Wilbur to “the President of the German republic and the President of the United States,” and closed with 0ast to “our guests.” We congratulate you upon the successful_completion of your flight and upon the magnificent airship you | bring,” Secretary Wilbur said. “Your visit is of great significance. You have brought to us this splendid product of German skill and of scien- tific ability. We wish this ship to be a symbol of peace and of friendship between the two nations here repre- sented. We wish you to feel that when the German flag is replaced by the American flag the ship you have built still will fly a flag friendly to the builders, the flag of a people hon- estly desiring the prosperity and happiness of all the German people. “War, like sickness or contagion, seems to come upon us uninvited. We rarely agree as to the causes of war. We probably could not agree as to the cause of the World War, but we do know that men everywhere de- sire peace.

By the Associated Press. HAVANA, Cuba., October 17.— Charges made by members of the Conservative party in the lower house of congress that auxiliary po- lice, composed of Liberals, are being organized in many towns in the in- terior to fntimidate Conservative voters, were answered at the secre- tary of interior's office yesterday by the statement that mayors had-full authority, if it were necessary, to augment. police forces. But it was declared that such action would be taken only to preserve order. The Conservative congressmen drew up a resolution saying that Clemente Vasquez Bello, president of the Liberal party and also speaker of the house, had issued a circular urging Liberals to form such aux- iliary police “to repel any acts of violence the opposing side may at- tempt,” and to “depress them.” Ex- cept in the province of Pidar del Rio, a larke majority of the mayors are members of the Liberal party. In Reolan, a town acroes the bay from Havana, some fifty citizens drew up a petition to the military command of the district asserting that special police already were organized and were seeking to drive Conserva- tives out of town by threats.

" NOTABLES ATTEN BRANDEGEE RITES President Among Group at Funeral Service in Home of Late Senator. President Coolidge, Senators ana other men of outstanding prominence attended funeral services for Senator Frank B. Brandegee of Connecticut, at 1700 I street, yesterday afternoon, Senator Brandegee committed suicide last Tuesday. . Rev. Dr. J. J. Muir, chaplain of the Senate, who officiated, recalled the warmth of friendship which had been extended by Senator Brandegee to all his friends. Having prefaced his sermon with the remark that it would be useless for him to deliver a lengthy eulogy on Senator Brandegee, Rev. Dr. Muir confined his sermon to relating close personal touches of the former Sen- ator and in_telling of the more se- rious side of life. “Often a person goes on bearing burdens of the heart that others know nothing of,” he said. President Deeply Touched. President Coolidge journeyed from the White House to the residence alone, with the exception of the usual accompaniment of Secret Service men. It was evident that he was deeply touched. The Senators designated to attend the services were: McLean, Connecti- : Lodge, Massachusetts; Borah, Moses, New Hampshire; P-p- Pennsylvania; Wadsworth, Gooding, Idaho; Hale, M. Dale, Vermont; Ball, Delaware; Over- man, North Carolina; Swanson, Vir- ginia; Gerry, Rhode Island; lLirou sard, Louisiana; Jones, New Mexico, and Shields, Tennessee. The House delegation list included the entire Connecticut delegation, Speaker Gillett and Representative Graham, Pennsylvania; Burdick, Ald- rich and O'Connell, Rhode Islan Watson, New Hampshire and Bacha- rach, New Jersey. Honorary pallbearers were George Harvey, Truxton Beale, C. C. Glover, H. Rozier Dulaney, Horace H. West- cott and John Hays Hammond.
