AIRDEFENSK ... There is an irreconcilable conflict between old and new ideas concerning war. The old services cannot bring them selves to accept the proposition that air force may become us important as military or naval force. Air force enlhusi iists reject the theory that aviation must forever remain a mere weapon of the army and navy. They insist that a new region of warfare lias been occupied, and that air warfare will determine the fate of nations before military or naval . forces can be brought into play. Therefore they contend this ; country should have an air service independent of the mili tary and naval services and on a scale commensurate with the needs of national defense. It is difficulte to offset this reasoning with the argument Hiat an airplane is merely a projectile which should be under the control of an army or navy officer. As the dav of air , fleets approaches it is obvious that air strategy will pass beyond the ken of men on sea or on land. There is a possibility that air warfare may bu found more m important than cither land or naval warfare, and yet this is : not taken into consideration in the discussion of a plan under which in timtf of war command of all the armed forces of . he nation would be concentrated under one head, that head being the ranking army officer if most of the fighting was on land and the ranking naval officer if most or Hit- fighting was on the high seas. Wouldn't it be advisable to give supreme eomniand to an air officer if the hostilities should take place mostly in the air? That seems to be the layman's opinion, but the army and navy will fight long against any move to subordinate military and navy ambitions for the sake of unified com mand. They will submit only when the army and navy be come mere auxiliaries of the air force. -r'-i . simple ufeikJ if r JKHIX . VE YOU EVER ' . r0Mf TO THE. COUMTR'Y IM THE. ViIf.'

Church Held Last Ni?;ht Ordinarily, no motorist would dream of driving his ma chine downtown if its license plates were missing, lie would figure, and rightly so, that some policeman would stop him wfore he had gone half a dozen blocks. But funny things happen, sometimes. Recently two Montana women set out on a motor tour. It happened that their auto had no license tags yet they got all the way to Massachusetts before any officer noticed it and stopped them. Traffic policemen arc pretty sharp-eyed gentlemen, and little escapes them. Figure out, then, if you can, how these women got their car so many hundreds of miles without being stopped. The Ohio Utilities Commission has done a wise thing in ordering all interni -ban bus companies to cut their maximum speed in the open country to nr miles an hour. To be sure, 8.r miles an hour is not a very high sieed on a good road in the country. Yet, in many instances, fast-traveling busses have pioven a menace to other drivers and a source of danger 10 their own passengers as well. A bus is altogether loo big and unwieldly and object to go hurtling along a road like a touring car. It must be governed by a different set of con siderations. Other stales might do well to copy the new Ohio regulation. Mexico is counting up the cost of her latest unpleasantness. Some of the items are 1,000 men killed and 11.000 wounded, losses of $10,11(1(1,(1(10 to the railroads and of $ 1,000,000 to foreign interests, and a cost of $00,(1(10,0(10 to the federal government for (inciting the insurrection. -That is a terrible price to pay for the avarice of a few second-rate politicians. They have made thousands of widows and orphans, further impoveiished their country, increased the tax burdens of their people and given to their national pnigress a serious set-back. Little wonder the government has found it diffi cult to give them quarter or grant amnesty. TRY W. K. GILBERT CO. FIRST Ity Mis. L. Z.
