Only when low- hanging clouds permit tne dirigibles to swoop -down upon the warship to an elevtalon from which the quickly man- euvering ship offers a fair target, do such attacks offer a reasonable chance of success.

Navigation for the Zeppelins, too, is by Do means as yet an exact science. The trips must be timed so as to cross the English coast in the darkness, make the | attack and get away again before dawn. | “It is not 80 easy to find England,” he sald. ““We cannot navigate so exactly at sea as overland, owing to the uncertainty of the alr currents, absence of land- marks, etc., 8o that it is usually an open question at just what point of the Brit- 1sh coast we shall bring up. Once there, however, after we have confirmation of the coast, we have the outlines of some coast city that gives us our bearings and we can steer a stralght course for our ob- jective. “"We can easily tell by just what route we are entering London. Last time I went in from the Surrey side and navi- gated without difficulty to the dock re- glon, which we had been ordered to at- ack.
