Direct eommunication with Germany stopped joday: The German-Atlantic cable lines from New York to Emden, via the /Azores, were cut about 1:30 A. M., at [some point east of the Azores, possibly by, British warships. The Commer- g Cabl@ company, which operates [the” American end of this line, made jthe announcement of the cutting to- y, and refused to accept messages lor Germany.

If the trouble is over in time to make the flight October 1, as planne, Porte will try it then. If not, it will have to be postponed until spring, owing to the unfavorable weather conditions that prevail in the late au- tumn.

Curtiss said last evening: “This struggle wiil demonstrate what type of aircraft is,_ best adapted to war purposes. For more than a year France, Germany and Russic have not given out in- formation regarding their aeronauti- cal activities, but they have been augmenting tneir air fleets stéadily. Disapproves of Ramming. “As a bumb dropping proposition L favor the aeroplane as ugainst the dirigible. If any quantity of weighg is dropped from a dirigible at the same time a quantity of gas must be moted to be a first licutenant. He taining power of the craft too rapidly to permit of long trips over hostile countries, ) “Of course, if the war lasts long the air fleets will continually scek o destroy each other. The nation hay- ing the largest number of aircraft will obviously have a distinct advan+ tage. “1 can't gay that 1 approve of ram- ming a dirigible with an aeroplane. There are other ways of accomplish- ing the same result, such as dropping an explosive into the gas envelope, which gives the aviator a chance for his life.” Mr, Curtiss said that about fifty ofy his machines were owned by the war-s ring nations and that, with the excep- tion of France, the percentage of bi- planes was about 7 In France the monoplanes are in the lead, but the new armored machines are of the bi- plane type. Curtiss believes that the aeroplanes can be used to the best advantage In a scouting capacity. —————————— O ——— If you are out of work don’t waste your time wan- dermg aimlessly about mak- ing a nulsance of yourself in places where the employers they Look have more help thaw. know what to do with, in the Herald Want Columns and see there which peopie in New Britain really need your services. e S —————— lc werd fn the classl-. fied column makes your - wants knewn te thousands of people.
