Law son, the aeronautical expert, who in 1912 predicted that the country hav ing the most efficient fighting air force would defeat and put out of existence its opponent, in an open letter to Congress asks for a $lO,- 000,000,000 appropriation for an ir fleet. I understand," he writes, "that the War Department has asked for an appropriation of only approxi mately $1,000,000,000. Congress should not l\esitate a day in appro priating that amount and then must get ready to make larger appropria tions for the greater air program which must, and no doubt will be, arranged by those in charge of mili tary aeronautics and aircraft pro duction in the near future. "The aircraft investigation is not a sufficient reason for stopping the construction of aircraft in this coun try altogether. Such a proceeding will certainly please the Kaiser. Imagine our boys 'over there' wait ing for months for airplanes while we argue 'over here' as to whether the last appropriation was spent wisely or wastefully." Porter Robinson and small son.
