AIRPLANES .
The losa of an airplane at pres
ent Is perhaps as serious aa the loss
of a pilot, from a military stand
point, for a man can be replaced
more easily than planes, according
to Major W. Thaw, , probably the
best known American airplane pilot,
fighting with the Lafayette Esca
drllle In France. The battle for
aerial supremacy is almost a drawn
one at present and It appears almost
certain that victory in this war will
be decided in the air, says Major
Thaw, In a letter to members of the
Loyal Legion of Loggers and Lum-
- bermen, an Industrial adjunct of the
" spruce production , division of the
signal corps, of which Colonel Bruce
P. Dlsque is commanding officer. The
letter will he published In the cur
rent issue ot the monthly bulletin of
the "L. L. L. L.," one means by
which the woodsmen members of
crash due to a defective motor. Last
week two pilots belonging to this
combat group were killed In a col
lision at 1 1.000 feet. A day or ao
before that four pilots were brought
down in combat, and so It goes from
day to day.
"Unless ws have new aeroplanes
with which Immediately to replace
losses we are ery serlouely handl
capped In the work ot fighting our
enemies. Odd aa It may seem, the
losa of a machine at present perhaps
Is s serious as the losa ot a pilot, for
men can be replaced more easily
than planes.
"I think It may truthfully be said
that we are doing our part In the
work of making aviation mora cost
ly to tha enemy than he makea It for
us. We have destroyed a good many
of his aircraft and we hope to con
tinue doing so.
But there la an Important fart
to remember. ' Aa conditions are
now, the Germans are making tre
mendous efforts to make good their
wastage in aeroplanea and the bat
tle for aerial supremacy thus far Is
almost a drawn one. It la nip and
tuck and will be until America's air
squadrons, trained and fully equip
ped, are ready to take the field In
force.
"It aooears almost certain now
that victory in this war will be de
elded In the air.
