Navies Need Not Fear
The Aeroplane.
By Rear Admiral WILLIAM T. SWINBURNE. U S. N.. Retired.
CHE AEROPLANE IN ITS PRESENT STATE OF DEVELOP
MENT IS NOT TO BE FEARED BY THE NAVIES OF THE
WORLD. THE AEROPLANE MUST ATTAIN TO A STATE
OF PROGRESS ABOUT FIVE THOUSAND TIMES WHAT IT
HAS NOW BEFORE IT CAN FIGURE AGAINST THE NAVIES. j
A navy is not to defend harbors. It is to destroy other navies or i
proceed against harbor tortmcations, which latter it
can do at a distance of twenty or thirty miles, which
is TOO FAR OUT FOR THE AEROPLANE TO
GO on an important mission.
Again, the aeroplane, if it wants to drop bombs
on a war-ship, must go to TOO GREAT A HEIGHT
to try the feat, for otherwise it can easily be reached
by the marksmen of the warship, .Getting to. .ft
height great enough to-try business, she will find her
bombs deflected by air currents.
When I was on the Texas we had a number of
gunners who could easily pick out any aeroplane at the height at
which the aeroplanes can do mischief.
A Call That Must be
Answered
Dear Subscribers:
All Subscribers are earnestly requested to call
and bring or send in the subsceiption price of this
paper for all back subscriptions at once. We will be

ing may send in theirs. We have a list of subccrib
ers that we are proud of, and all of whom we believe

settle your account, and now that we are in urgent
need of money we make this appeal to everyone due
us on subscription to come, or send, and settle at
• once, by doing so you will do us a great favor.
