"No doubt you are familiar wita the military mas:s of our American battleships. They are latticed towers, not unlike cages. They are thus con structed so that whole sections of th latticework may be shot away; but the remaining portions will still sup port the mast. "So I would build the wheels of my war-machine. Why not armor them instead? They would weigh far too much thousands of tons, in fact.

There the spokes would be concentrated so thickly that they might be shot away in great numbers. Besides, the sub and axle must be well protected. Therefore the center of each wheel would be a mass of armor as thick as that of a battle cruiser. "The two front wheels of this war machine would have to be space! about three hundred feet apart. They would have a tread about twenty feet wide In other words, about as wide as an ordinary room. I would make them of steel plates 4 inches thick, bolted together in sections. "Since the machine is to destroy by virtue of its inherent energy and not by means of guns, It would have a comparatively small car a car which would not rise above the tops of the front wheels, which would be heavily armored, and which would serve pri marily as a housing for the enjflnea. The crew would be small not tnre than perhaps thirty men. "I am full aware that the problem of obtaining engines which will give this war machine a speed of one hun dred miles an hour is not easily solv ed. But if thousands of horse power can be developed by the engines pitching and rolling battleships, It Is not unreasonable to suppose that com petent engineers can be found to de sign and build steam engines of twen ty thousand horse-power, fed by oil fired boilers."
