NECESSARY ALLY OF NAVY Great Britain Seat Need of Holding Command of Air a Well as of . ,- Sea Aircraft Either Attack -: : 1 jiT- or Summon Patrols. Iiondon. The measure of the suc cess of the antisubmarine cnmpulgn Is the sufe crossing of tho Atluntlc by a million American - troops. . . There is very properly a good deal of official reticence regarding , the - methods by which submarines are de stroyed, but It is an open secret that the royal air force bus contributed .'. largely toward the defeat of the D boat campaign. .1 ., i , Just as airplanes have become an , essential auxiliary to the army, so air .' craft have become an Indispensable ally of the navy, making It clour that asceuduuey In the air in future will be as vital to Britain as her present as cendancy at sea. '.-'; Airships of two main types,,- the smaller known as the submarine scout and the larger as the' coast patrol type,' and seaplunes, are the chief In struments for dealing with submarines from the air. The first business of all aircraft or submarine- offensive Is to find the submarine. '. '. ' . i ' 8ee Submersed Boats.' ; From a certain' height in the' air, submerged U-boats are visible to ob . servers and their position Is conimunl cated to the nearest naval patrol) -The work of aircraft Is by no means con fined to detecting the' D-boats. . They have means of llnmedlutely attacklug their prey without waiting for the ar rival of the naval patrol. ,. :'; Thero Is the obvious ,mcans of drop ping bombs, fully effective when the , submarine Is caught on or just below the surface.. Modern antisubmurine aircraft are almost equally nt home In the air or on the-water. Should the . U-boat dive through the water. Its pur suer can dive through the air and re ' , lease depth charges, which have a con siderable range of notion, and are much - feared by U-boat commanders. , In claiming for the It. A. F. a large share In winning the safe .binding of. America's first million the reservation ' must be made tliat the range of air craft from their bases Is limited; but their buses are not necessarily on land, and seaplanes and submarine scouts have accommodation on shipboard and , are carried to the area of their deep sea patrols. ,-s' z ,J Where They Are Thickest Again, it Is naturally In home wa ters and especially Itt. the North , sen' that submarines are thickest, butvenrd bound from Germany, so that aircraft ' patrols are effective from home bases over the sea zone most frequented by U-bonts. ' Coast patrol airships accompany convoys through home waters "spot ting" submarines, to be dealt with either by themselves or by destroy ers; and If the U-bont menace- is not ' yet mastered, It is steadily and un mistakably being brought under con . trot. . - Safe landing of a million Americans . In France. Is a big fact, the signifi cance of which can hardly be missed even in Germany, where, according to neutral witnesses, scepticism has been rapidly growing lately concerning the possibilities of the U-boat campaign". ' START COMMUNITY LAUNDRY Canton; O, Probably First City Irf t i s '"' Country to Make the ... Y'rn ., Venture... Canton, O. This city Is probably the first In the country to have a com mnnlty laundry. Iiesidents of the northeast section of the city have formed an organization fort the es tablishment of the laundry. Shares of stock were sold at $10 each and more than 800 stockholders -are interested in the venture. In connection with the laundry the community plant will operate a dry cleaning establishment, hat and shoe denning shop and shoe, repair shop. While the plant will be, profit sharing concern, the price of work, It Is expected, will be held con siderably below the regular prlcfcs to stockholders.

' "It seems to mo that motorists tast ing' through here are extremely rock less In their driving," said the hyper critical guest, "Pon't the authorities try to do anything to stop their speed ing through town?'!
