IN THE AIR The Italian aviatore is thia coun try hare been teaching American to lessons that ought to be taken to heart. One of theee lessons relatea to the Immense possibilities of airplane de velopment (or purpose of peace. Our people have hardly begun to realiM the progress made In the art of firing during the war. It la an Illuminating revelation to Bnd an Kalian airplane carrying ten men from Newport News to Washington, and taking twelve passengers to an altitude of 17.000 feet. It Is still more. Impressive to lad that a Ca pronl triplane la being assembled on our toll with a wing spread of orer 100 feet, driven by three giant motors and capable of carrying 2S passengers. These are not freak machines, but copies of types that hare already given practical service abroad. It Is reported that a still larger airplane has made successful flights In Italy. machine of 1.S00 horsepower, and that one now being made will hire S.I 01 horsepower. The Italian engineers have spe cialised on sis and power, as the French have on speed and control. The merits of such construction for purposes of carrying malls, small packages, freight and passengers in this country should be plain to everyone. The lessons of immediate valse. however, is the desirability of the United States co-operating with Italy in the matter or aviation. The Italians have good models, hut not enough copies of them. They can not make airplanes fast enough for their own needs. With complete supremacy in the air. the task of smashing throngh the Austrian defense would become far easier. With enough airplanes and artillery both, they might sweep forward so irresistibly as to win the war for the allies.
