This Is probably the real reason for our government purchasing the Zll-8. Washington doubtless felt that the Zeppelin Company had valuable information and experience which it would lie very unwise for the world to lose. The wisdom of this program 1ms been thoroughly jus tified by the record made between Germany ami America by this newest und most advanced type of light er-than-alr machine.

Dm whacks Overcome. , "The two drawbacks which have held up tlu development of the dirigible have apparently been overcome. The first problem was that of the danger of combustion.

The first steam ruilroud stopping of all engines would mt seriously endanger the ship or IIH passengers. Itepulrs may be made und tho flight resumed or a land ing may be manoeuvred at leisure. Such a contingency in the lighter t han-alr machines may Involve a slight delay but it threatens very tittle damage to the shop and al most none to Its passengers. "The two major requisites of speed and relative safety have been, thoroughly demonstrated," con tinued Mr. Habson, "and while the. high cost of helium gas und un siandurdtxed manu faei n ring of equipment may make the cost of dirigible transportation seem pro hibitive at litis Huh- I am confi dent' that further research will make such transportation econom ically practical and reudtly avail able.

Tho development of the west would have been al most Impossible without the steam boat und the railroad. Hut for the automobile congestion In our cities today would be almost mi hclicvuhlc. Not so long ago tho street rullwiiy men scoffed at the idea of thu motor bus us a prac tical means of transportation. They are just beginning to appreciate their error and to adopt this thor oughly established method of con veyance. The cable companies laughed at radio, yet today a large part of the trnns-Atlanttc com munication Is carried on through the air.

These great warily justify the acceptance ofr a development us commercially prac tical. The aeroplane for that mat ter is newer than the dirigible.

As this is done a great Industry will develop lo supply this new means of transportation io f the world. . ; Careful Tlmiittht Needed. t "I.

In the dirigible Industry itself for tunes will doubtless be made and miiipIi nwiin MluMit ti li r) will Rhk- taln a ship for a greater lciv;lh of time. The second dangel -in tho early dirigibles waa the possibility of los by .storm. Their sped of around 25 'miles an hour was not sifficlent to cope, with" high wind. Once thev were driven from t heir course, they floundered helplessly, a victim of the ele- j nieiitH. Today the wireless pro-1 videa a means of .constant com- 1 munication by which the dirigible may be warned of storms or other threalenlng.weather. The speed of 76 miles an hour and upward en ables the ship to manoeuvre its way around t tie worst of the storm und to make a satisfactory prog ress against ,a- hjgh wind if nec essary. The llghter-thiui-air-nia-chine has demonstrated the feet that It is not only. a very swirt carrier but is also u safe method of transportation. The ueroplniirt attains a terrific speed but the breaking of u guy wire or the stopping of - a motor may force ships wUI not only be able to1 cross the water at a speed of from, seventy-five lo one hundred mllesr an hour but they will also be able to cross plain ami river, mountain and valley with equal facility. Pas- t sengers for Kurope will board : their ship at Chicago, Cleveland,'!
