T By the Consolidated Pre CALDWELL, Ohio, September 5.— Afrplanes pitting their advantages as heavier-than-air craft against the more imposing and stateller lighter-than-air dirigible came out of the Shenandoah disaster with an edge over the floating craft. Brought face to face with the ele mentx and with natural hazards, the dirigible broke and crashed. Then the speedy, businessiike little planes, sent out to' the scene, demonstrated their mettle against all local hazards with out serious mishaps. The tragic destruction of the Shen andoah revealed the extent afrplane travel already has developed here. Planes sent by individual news. papers, press assocfations, motion pics ture concerns, as well as those of the naval officers, came winging into this relatively backwoods section almost by the dozen. Though without facill ties of any kind in the smaller towns for landing, they sailed down into pas- | tures and fields and smashed thelr rig- | ging occasionally, but they left their passengers safe, a contrast to dificul- ties that beset a dirigible in flight. Landing Fields Ready. The aviators found, 100, that of any size in this hilly, hazardous ffying country have prepared landing fields for fiyers. They were ready for the little winged craft but Ty pre pared for a giant airship incapable of mooring except to specially prepared masts and in no condition to meet the once forced hazards of wooded down But dirigibles, string of mishaps, fenders. 3 “The lighter-than-air ship gives ad vantage in load-carying pacity. sustained flight and regularity which the airplane has not so thoroughly de veloped,” declared Comdr.

Letting down the bars and appoint- ing thesé two women to foreign serv- ice is a radical departure in the policy of the State Department, as officials have freely said that they did not want women in this work. They have felt that men were better adupted to the requirements of these positions.
