WHY ENGLAND MAY
FEAR NEAR RAID OF
GIANT ZEPPELINS
British General Shows That
Air Invasion of London is
Possible Sees No Good
' Means of Defense.
The peril of London from a possible
bombardment by Zoppellna la the subject
of tha leading nrtlclo that appears In
the Ju'y lssuo ot Tlie JoUrnal ot the
Ilojal United Service Institution of Great
Britain, the organization of the oiriccrs
tt the British army and navy. In the
article a genftral omccr points out tho
dangers that may hover over London
In a time of war, dancers that he frankly
admits are serious In extent and which
might be difficult to oppose In the vent
ef an airship Invasion of England.
In a wireless aiepatcn irom nernn it
rtf nwcrted that Germany was consider
ing Invadlntr England with a fleet of new
Zeppelins. iThus tho article In The Journal
tt tho Hojal United Bervlco Institution
la of timely Interest It begins with a
recital of tho havoo that might be
Wrought on navy yards, arsenals, oil
reservoirs and wireless stations by pro
jectiles dropped from Zoppollns and aero
planes, and then goes on to recite the
dangers of an air attack on the great
centres of population. On this lattor point
most of tho opaco Is devoted to London.
"Of these London la tat us," the British
general states, "tho prlmo object of con
.Mutton. Destruction and panic In the
largest provincial towns could cause trou
ble, but need not affect our national
volley. London In this respect stands
'ilone that is. It Is not only the habitat
of a large fraction ot our population,
bJt al6o th scat of Government, tho
centre of our financial and business sys
tems and the nerve centre of our military
and naval forces. A serious blow aimed
against London would be more effective
agalast the national life than In any other
capital In the world.
FACING A NEW BRA.
"We aro now beyond doubt face to
face xvlth a new era In war. If you have
granted my assumption with regard to
the range of action nnd offensive power
of aircraft of the immediate future
those assumptions would hold good for
one object as well as another. How U
London affected by them? General
Delacroix In an article In tho Dally Mall
of September 11, 1313, wroto:
" 'Even admitting that a Zeppelin
Tiere to pass over the English country
side It Is not easy to see what result
would be effected, for oven In time of
nar It would not be permissible to drop
explosives Into unfortified towns.'
"I have no wish to be an alarmist or
to make one's flesh creep, but I am not
prepared to accept this dictum even
from so eminent an authority. The Idea
of not bombarding unfortified towns had
Its origin many years ago In tlio time
ot perpetual war In Europe, and like
most ot the rather artificial conventions
of that time rested on mutual conveni
ence. An unfortified town In those days
was not of much Importance one way
or the other. It was not expected to
offer resistance. If It was spared bom
bardment the enemy In return expected
to occupy tt without any trouble and
take full advantage of Its conveniences
for billeting, supplies, etc.
"If a Geneva convention were now
sitting, and the point wero to be raised
that a capital which Is easily accessible
to the enemy may clnlm oxomptlon from
attack on tho ground that It Is unfoi ti
lled, would not the answer be 'Yes, pro
vided that it is prepared to submit and
not offer armed resistance to the enemy's
armed forces'? And whether the armed
forces take tho form of troops ready to
advance or of tho non-er In ilpntmv.rn.

principle Is the same.

GERMAN DIRIGIBLES
REPORTED INFERIOR
TO FRENCH AIRSHIPS
Zeppelins Not Armed for
Fear of Gas Explosions
and at Mercy of High
Flying Aviator.
The story of tho ramming of a Ger
man Zeppelin airship by the famous
French aviator, Roland Garros, probably
nroso from tho Idea that a Zeppelin can
not be attacked In any other way, owing
to Its blng defended irom assault from
above, by a rapid-firing gun mounted on
tho gas bng.
In order to make sure of his aim, a
bomb thrower In an aeroplane would havo
to approach within 100 feet above the
Zeppelin, whero he would be within easy
rnnge of tho gun supposed to be mounted
on the balloon.
An a matter of fact, however, only
three or four of the vrry latest Zeppelins
aro equipped with theso gun platforms
DANZIG, THE CITY OF HOMES, THREATENED BY RUSSIANS
This city, one of the most beautiful in Germany, is now reported to be invested by a Russian army. The photo
graph shows one of the quiet streets, the Fradcngasse, with the Maria Church in the background.
the defense of objectives or small area,
such as batteries nnd stores, against
aerial attack Is easy, though It will cost
Rome money. The defense of those largo
area"?, especially the capital, cannot bo
relied on except by active offensive opera
tions,
"As regards London, some will say that
such forms of attack as I have Indicated
would bo Ineffective In any case, nnd
they would point out the bombardment
of Paris In 1870. I have always until re
cently taken that point of view. I havo
always held that bombardment, however
severe, was no justification for a fortified
place, but the evolution of mlBslles of
war have gone a long way since 1ST0, and
In the case of London hostile action
ngalnst It would not havo dliect effect
on our operations of war.
"Another school will take mo to task
for accepting such possibilities ns use of
Incendiary projectllos against an unforti
fied town. I may be riulte wrong. If I
were responsible for tho snfety of this
town I would say that the safeguard Is
one cannot too often repeat It offensive j
action.
"When we consider tho effective pow
ers of the dirigible balloon together with
tho difficulty of warding off its attack,
wo must allow that there have been few
moro potent Instruments of destruction
known to history. On the other hand, of
all tho weapona over devised by man this
Is by far the most fragile and most vul
nerable. I believe that, whatever tho fu
ture of the dlrflslble may bo for all tho
uses of peace. In a few years no
one will think of employing it for war.
But for the moment it must be provided
for."

OPPOSES FREIGHT TAX
Development of permanent and exten
sive commercial relations with tho South
American countiles must have for Its
basis a closer mutual underitandlng of
Intellectual and cultural conditions, ac
cording to H. Erwln Bard, the director
of the Pan-American Division of the
American Association for International
Conciliation. Mr. Bard recently returned
on tho Calamares from an extensive visit
to the educational centres of South
America, which wns made under his
leadership by a leprescntatlve body of
American educators.
"The Pan-American Division was cre
ated by the American Association for In
ternational Conciliation last January."
said Mr. Bard, "and this trip Is tho first
move toward establishing closer rela
tions with our South American neigh
bors. Wo Americans are prono to over
look tho necessity of a mutual cultural
and Intellectual understanding' between
countries which wish to dovelop oxtenslve
and permanent commercl.il relations.
"From before tho crpntlon of this na
tion as an Independent political and com
mercial agent, wo havo been In the
closest touch with the cultural and In
tellectual conditions of Europe. This ap
plies especially to our mother country
and to Germany, and It is a slgnlflciut
rnct tnat our greatest trade relations are
with those two countries Vet it never
occurs to us tnat this close Intimacy Is
the basis for our commorce.
SHOULD 6TUDT CHARACTERISTICS.
"Hence, In our attempts to dovelop our
trado -nlth South America iv have been
Indifferent to the need of leurnlng the
characteristics peculiar to South Ameri
can life and culture. Although the coun
tries there have long been on Intimate
relations with Europe, theie has bee
but small oDportunlty for cross-currents
to be established between them and us.
This Is because tha Interests of South
Ameilca lu Europe havo naturally cen
tred In tho southern, or Latin, countries,
whllo wo have developed more Intimate
connections with the English and Teu
tonic nations.
"Tho commercial successes of Germany
4n South America havo been due to the
.fact that their merchants have recognized
principle or establishing cultural re
Wo would only go half-way. At tho
same time, I wish to emphasize tho bene
fits which many of our students could get
from a year or two of study In South
America,
"It Is more than a question of the in
terchange of students, however. What
wo al3o need Is nn Interchange of tho
leading men. The mere fact that a man
like Colonel Roosevelt wished to visit
theso countries of South America was a
big step In tho making of bettor relations.
As far as I could learn, he also made an
excellent Impression. It Is tho same way
with tho visits which Robert Bacon and
Secretary Root havo paid to South
America in the past few years. I heard
icferenccs to these trips constantly.
"Between tho present war and the at
tractions of the San Francisco Exposi
tion, there will undoubtedly be a great
imiiiuer oi ooutn Americans who will
visit this country in tho next year. Ar
gentina is spending a great deal of
inuncy aim care on Her representation at
ban Francisco. She Is also contemplating
the creation of several national com
missions, which will come to the United
States to study various fields of activity.

and, furthermore, It i learned on good
authority that none of them Is mounted
with guns, for It Is now known that If
there were a leak In any of the chambers
of tha (U bag near tho middle portion
of the dirigible, the escaping hydrogon
would find Its way out near the gun
platform and would be most certain to
explode when tho gun was discharged.
It li now believed that the explosion
several months ago or the new Zeppelin
at Johnnnlsthnl, near Berlin, when tho
entire orew was killed, wna caused by
tho gun on top firing blank cartridges
as nn experiment.
It Is, therefore, comparatively a slmplo
matter, in the abnenco of a gun, for nn
aviator to approach quite close to a Zep
pelin front above, for the crow In the
cars below tho gas bag, cannot hit tho
aeroplane so lont' aa tho pilot keeps the
envelope betwren himself and tho cars
of tho Zeppelin. Tha knowledgo of thin
fact probably nccounts for the absence
of reports of German airships flying over
France, while the German balloons havo
been seen much over Belgium. Franco
has a huge corps of expert aviators and
aeroplanes of tho highest rfllclency,
while the Belgian aviation corps Is so
small that It hardly counts.
While Germany has been the esptclal
sponsor of the dirigible for military pur
poses, that country has not overlooked
thi aeroplane. While France has popu
larly been supposed to 1-ml In war aero
planes, Gcrmnny has as many as 1.100
of these machines, ntid perhaps tho larg
the world.
Those 130i) machines are all compara

six months, one may safely put tha entire
German output At ,an month, With An

The numbar of pilot to fly thM rns..

of any other nation because ot Germany'
policy of encouraging civilian flying

The training of these military flyers was

high wages to their pilots. Tha firms
could afford to provide comfortable quar

In order to stimulate progress In avia

to enter tho big flying competitions, and
various Government departments gave
handsome prizes. For this reason there
ware 30 starters In the Prince Henry com
