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.

Quarterly Session
Of M. E. 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.
