T« greatest air raid of the war is reported to have taken place | at Dillingen, Bavaria, where sixty-two French aviators dropped | at least one hundred and fifty bombs on the German munition factories. Fresh interest will be aroused in rumored plans of the allies for| vast aerial operations against Germany, From time to time it has been stated that thousands of new aircraft are being hurried to com- pletion both in England and in France. So far the actual destruction caused by bombs dropped from aeroplanes or airships has been sur- prisingly small. This is no doubt because such attacks have usually been made by at most half a dozen aircraft manoeuvring together. The French War Office reports that its aviators flew over Dil- lingen in a squadron “composed of four groups,” indicating that rapid strides are being made in the massed movement of aeroplanes. It is no easy thing to hit a mark on the earth while moving at high speed a mile above it. But of a thousand bombs there ought to be a good chance that some will land where they will produce results. . «» Mor dnetance, if five hundred French aeroplanes were ever to oop over Essen and drop their most powerful explosives with pre- arranged concert and precision on the great gun works, even German strength would stagger from the blow. ——_——- 42 Too much talk taints a camp.

W' LEARN that a bronze equestrian statue of Joan of Arc, heroic in size on a pedestal twenty-five feet high, is to be erected in Riverside Park, New York is not refusing good statues. But why Joan of Arc? The warrior maid saved France and was \terribly served by her enemies, but neither her great deeds nor her martyrdom connect themselves with this country. If a new statue of some famous Euro- pean woman is to be set up on these shores, why not Queen Isabella, who helped finance the expedition that discovered us? Why not Eliza- beth, royal patroness of gallant Englishmen who colonized us? Why not Madame Roland, a martyr to ideals of liberty which this nation realized?
