SSlblHW of remmcrrfnl aircraft te war
Sen made the writing of aircraft
limitation Impractical.
TloTend that obvious fact, however,
i! the desire e'f evers nation that no
meellmeiit sheulil be placed In the way
if development of air navigation for the
benefit of all mankind.
Giant strides In tiic air were made
h nil powers under war impetus. Ijelli
In cas-carrled craft and in much nes
that relv en the lifting power of tilted
planes things were done undreamed of
i few months before they were accom accem
nllihctl facts. All the economic bar
riers that hem in peace-time develop
meats were swept aside by the urgeni
S of "r. Dollars ( and cents did
net matter.
Moving at Snail's Pace
I'nt back again te days of peace, air
craft development is moving at a
mil's pace all ever the .world. 'I he
rilficc of air navigation in the qoiiimer qeiiimer
cinl scheme of things is net established
ret en unv profitable basis and if gov
ernments de net carry en the experi
mental work In connection with armies
and navies, the newest awl'ipest prom
Mir field of transportation probably
would lie neglected for years te come.
This is the view tnken by army and
tavy efllcials of the United States and
it is rcllected in the American proposal
te the Conference. IE is te be expected,
an the Conference moves along, -that
rales te limit the use of aircraft, te curb
bombing of dcferisc'css cities and civi
lian non-combatants, hospitals and the
like in war. will lie written.
There is a definite p'ace for that en
the agenda, but no (iuvcrnmnt could
leek with favor en any project that
veuld tend te discourage inventors and
iiiblic mil private enterprise from
plumbing the possibilities of air unit'"'
with a view te finding cheap fat
mrtlieds of coniiminlyntlen and trans
pert. Planes Kasil Converted
As te eiiveitil'lllty, it is apparent
offhand, ellicers say. that any plane
capable of carrying the mail or auv
ether burden could be leaded with bombs
for war purposes, equipped with ma
chine guns and otherwise be put into
fighting shape in a matter of hours.
Without any change whatever a com cem
tarda" plane would become immediate
ly aai'able In war for the prime pur
pose as vet of military and naval air
craft, scouting te locate enemy positions
en land or sea.
Navy efiiela's tire far from satisfied
that aircraft have readied a point
liere the Md-time surface craft of the
4
battle line have lest their importance
as .the main rpllnnrn In wnr m unit
but they admit that air developments
l'uve added new factors te the game of
war and that In the fittute may lie
such radical advances in air work as
may In fact wholly revolutionize naval
warfare.
American observers expect 110 serious
proposal during the Conference for auv
form of aircraft limitation that would
inhibit such development.
