Is impossible for small boats to reach
a stranded steamer in heavy weather.
Upon some occasions even the line
throwing guns cannot get a hawser
aboard. It is argued that aeroplanes
in any but exceptional circumstances
would be able to carry a line to ves
sels in distress, making it possible to
use a breeches buoy and get passen
gers and crew to shore.
Should congress approve this plan it
would open a new field to aviators
more hazardous than any other branch
of flying, not excepting war work.
They would be compelled to make as
