The request was made from the platform by no less a person than Samuel Gompers for an announcement from all unions who would welcome Negroes into their ranks or had done so in the past. From all parts of the hall the chief officials of the big unions responded favorably. It seemed like a Methodist revival as the labor leaders got up to testify that they drew no color line in their organizations. But the Negro delegation was not so easily put off, and at least one of their number, John A. Lacey, the colored man who is secretary of the Central Labor Council of Norfolk, Va., commented in bitter terms about the "dirty treatment" the Negro has received in the United States. The whole matter of the race question, which for a long time divided the white men from the black in the South, and even in northern states, was brought up when Frank Duffy, chairman of the resolutions committee, lumped together the five resolutions brought in by the Negro delegation. The requests were made in these resolutions for permission to organize an international union of skilled and unskilled colored men, in view of the fact that some international unions obstinately refused to admit black men to membership or else placed them in auxiliary locals without direct representation; for organizers in the various Southern states, preferably Negro organizers; complaint against the various metal-trades' international for refusing to admit black men, and a demand to have a colored man permanently stationed at the A. F. of L. headquarters to look out for the interests of colored workers. Duffy stated that to charter an international union of skilled and unskilled Negro workmen would be a flagrant trespass on the rights of the numerous international unions that were already accepting such workers as members. He declared that the American Federation of Labor was ready to organize any group of colored workers that were refused admission into their proper international unions as federal locals of the American Federation of Labor, and that the executive council was ready to give particular attention from now on to the organizing of colored workers. Samuel Gompers, president of the Federation, declared after the session in which the Negro question was discussed, that the A. F. of L. had taken an important and necessary step forward in the right direction when it so unconditionally held out the hand of fellowship to the Negro worker. T. McCullough, one of the delegation of the International Typographical Union, who has been a trenchant and earnest fighter on the floor of the convention, opened the debate by declaring that it was very wise on the part of the federation not to form separate organizations on racial lines. He stated that there were some unions so shortsighted as not to admit the colored man to membership, but that these organizations have many reasons to regret such a stand, now that the Negro has because they could not find a welcome in the existing labor organi- "As a man interested in the uplift of my race, I must say that a very serious situation exists in many cities where organizations have refused to take in Negro workers." He stated that in one large city in Virginia, from March to April this year, 43,000 Negro workers had joined an independent union because they couldn't find a welcome in the existing labor organizations connected with the federation. Nevertheless, he said, the prevailing feeling among the colored men was that they should stand by the American Federation of Labor if they could get that equality of rights and the "democracy" of which so much was being talked about. "If you can take in immigrants who cannot speak the English language, why can't you take in the Negro, who has been loyal to you from Washington to the battlefields of France?" he declared. "We don't ask any favors from you. We ask for a chance to live like men, with equal rights and democratic rule. We do not ask for social equality. We ask for the same chance to earn bread for our families at the same salary our white brothers are getting. "The Negro can read now, and the man that can read, can think." He commented on the fact that the Negro who read about the injustice that was done to him as a worker and a human being, could not fail to question the much vaunted "democracy" that was supposed to prevail here. Then he said: "The Negro is ready to live for you and to die for you, with all his dirty treatment in this country, if you give us equal rights the same as you have to earn bread for our families." Robert F. Burdford, a Negro delegate, representing a federal union of freight handlers, then related the discrimination of the Brotherhood of Railway Clerks to colored freight handlers all through the South, despite the fact that this union claimed jurisdiction over them. Another colored man, representing the railroad coach cleaners of St. Louis, asserted without the support of an international organization they were practically powerless to make a good fight for better wages. VOLUME 11. NO. 14 ```markdown ``` (By Associated Negro Press) ARIZONA'S GREATEST WEEKLY A. J. Chlopek, one of the delegation of the International Longshoremen's Association, an organization which would like to take over the freight handlers, especially along tidewater, into its jurisdiction, bore witness to the injustice done the Negroes by the Railway Clerks' organization. J. J. Forrester, the chief executive of the Brotherhood of Railway Clerks, aroused by the criticisms of his organization, admitted that the brotherhood constitution did not allow full rights to Negroes, but that he hoped at the July meeting of his executive board full rights would be given to the colored man. This declaration was cheered. Then followed the experience meeting in which the following unions, as testified by their representatives, were reported to have given full and equal rights to Negro members: United mine workers, mill, mine and smelter workers, longshoremen, carpenters, textile workers, seamen, cigarmarkers, teamsters, plasterers, bricklayers, maintenance of way men, laundry workers, tailors, brewery workers, upholsterers, garment workers, steel and iron workers, butcher workmen, printers, brick and clay workers, hod carriers, leather workers, motion picture actors, barbers, musicians, postal employees, glass bottle blowers, federal employees, stereotypers, boot and shoe workers, molders, quarry workers, letter carriers, fur workers, civil engineers, firemen and pilers, stage employees and motion picture operators, car builders, and street railway employees. "We draw no distinction to any race or color," was the utterance of Seymour Hastings, delegate of the motion picture players' union of Los Angeles. "We need and are always helpful of our Negro members," said Miss Mollie Friedman of the Waist Makers' Union, No. 25, New York. "We have added nearly six thousand colored girls to our membership in the last year and a half." The Meat Cutters and Butcher Workmen's Union, according to the remark of John F. Hart, president, has a big membership of Negroes employed in the packing plants and have five colored organizers on the road. For the International Typographical Union it was reported that Negroes have been admitted for the last forty years. The Stationary Firemen and Oilers' Union has five colored organizers and one Negro on its executive board, it was reported. EMMETT J. SCOTT RESINGS POSITION WITH GOVERNMENT The War Department authorizes publication of the following correspondence: War Department, Washington, June 11, 1919. Dear Mr. Secretary: Now that the especial work I was called to Washington to do is at an end, and also because of private arrangements which become effective July 1, I am writing to tender my resignation, to take effect June 30, 1919. Before retiring, however, I wish to convey to you this expression of my heartfelt appreciation of the privilege and honor of serving in your office, during the war, as special assistant, advising in matters affecting colored soldiers and Americans generally. It has been to me an experience of greatest moment, and I have sought diligently and as effectively as possible to serve the Great Cause in which all racial groups of Americans have had an interest in common. I shall carry back into civilian life the pleasantest recollections of your generous consideration, marked confidence, and extreme courtesy during the nearly twenty-one months I have been here. Likewise, I am pleased to testify as to the uniform courtesy and consideration which have been shown me at all times by your entire office force. I am to remain in Washington as secretary-treasurer of Howard University, and shall be pleased at any time to respond to any call for service wherein my judgment may be of value. Sncerely yours. EMMETT J. SCOTT. Hon. Newton D. Baker, Secretary of War, Washington, D. C. I have just received your letter of June 11, tendering your resignation to take effect June 30, 1919, and have noted my acceptance upon the paper. As you thus bring to an end your period of association with the department, I take the opportunity to express my deep appreciation of the fidelity, zeal, and intelligence with which you have done the work entrusted to you. That it was difficult goes without saying; but your uniform sympathy and courtesy has, I feel very sure, enabled the War Department to make clear to the colored people of the United States its earnest desire to see their service in the great war rendered under circumstances PHOENIX, ARIZONA, SATURDAY, JULY 5, 1919 SALUTING UNIMAX NA'S GREATEST W PHOEN'X, ARIZONA, SATURDAY, J What We Want To Know By Sgt. Clarence R. Gordon, Brest, France We the men of the A. E. F. Ask you, the one who stayed At home in safety and comfort If a real man's game you've played. While we were in the trenches, Or "Over the Top" in a raid We wonder how you spent your time Whether you be man or maid. Did you do your hit back home there Were you always on the job, Working for our welfare Whether Soldier, Marine or Gob. Did your dollars help swell the Lib- erty Loan Did you to the Red Cross give. Did you grieve for those of us who died, Died, that you might live? Did you do the things that were clean and right, Or the things that were mean and wrong, Did you keep the promises made to us, Or were you just stringing us along? Did you try to protect our mothers or wives, Try to sooth the grief and pain Occasioned by our going, Or did you think only of gain. Did you help to keep us supplied with smokes And how did you cast your vote Did you consider us at the ballot box Or did you make us the goat? Did you try to keep our jobs for us, Or try from us to steal To put it short, did you give to us A clean, or a dirty deal? We're coming home, two million strong, Our work over here is done, And we'll want to know just what you are And just what you have done. We're coming home with eyes to see And we're neither dumb or deaf So prepare for a full accounting To the men of the A. E. F. satisfying alike to their ambition and pride. Taking it all in all, the relations between the War Department and the colored people of America have been sympathetic and helpful, the service rendered by colored soldiers and civilians has been conspicuous, and I trust that permanent value will accrue to the race, as well as to the country generally, from this great experience. Cordially yours, NEWTON D. BAKER, Secretary of War. Mr. Emmett J. Scott, War Department.

This declaration was TRIBUNE LINCOLN LEAGUE ORGANIZED TO WORK FOR RACE UPLIFT (By Associated Negro Press) NEW ORLEANS, La., June 30.—"The Lincoln League of America" is the outcome of the gathering of prominent citizens from all section of the country at the Iroquois club, this city. The organization is to embrace the Negro Race in the United States, having as its direct object securing the ballot, and designed generally to further the advancement of the Race. A general convention of the League will be held in Chicago, September 16, 17 and 18, at which time more definite plans for operation throughout the nation, and particularly in the South, will be worked out. The immediate efforts of the League will be directed towards the formation of subordinate, state, county and ward organizations. Information on the purpose of the League and the objects sought to be obtained will be spread among the people, particularly among the white people of the South. Effort to acquaint white persons with the motive of the League will be made because it is to the white people of the South the appeal for different conditions especially is to be addressed. A fund of $1,437 was collected to form the nucleus of a national campaign fund. In a set of resolutions adopted, the convention set forth as vital to the future welfare of the nation, as well as the Race itself, the need of greater co-operation between the races. Upholding the American government as embracing the highest ideals, the resolutions recite the belief that in time all people in America will gain that freedom which "is fed to life on ancient and unfailing promises." The resolution asserts the war record of the soldiers contains no hint of treason or failure of duty, and the record of the Race in peace as equally concentrated. The resolutions appeal for federal education of children, call for the ballot and defines the reasons for migration to the North. Federal intervention alone, the resolutions recite, can stop lynching, which is 'held up as a subject for the ridicule of other countries. Peace, not strife, and the cooperation of the white people to meet the new conditions in America are stated as the purpose and desire of the Race. A vice-president for each state in the Union was selected: B. V. Baranco, of Baton Rouge, for Louisiana, and Perry W. Howard, for Mississippi Walter L./Cohen, of New Orleans, is treasurer, and Henry Lincoln Johnson, Atlanta, secretary. Roscoe Conkling Simmons, chairman of the conference, was made president of the new organization. Mr. Simmons made a capable presiding officer, fair and just, but frank and firm in reference to the momentous work before the League. Mr. Simmons was the author of the resolutions, which were adopted without a dissenting vote. The executive committee is composed of the following: Robert R. Church, Memphis, Tenn., chairman and director of the organization; Jas. T. Peterson, Alabama; Gilchrist Stewart, New York; W. C. Hueston, Missouri; J. H. Watson, Georgia; Frank R. Steward, Pennsylvania; Dr. S. A. Furniss, Indiana; Thomas W. Fleming, Ohio; James W. Johnson, New Robert S. Abbott, Illinois; Jas. B. Griggsy, Texas. The legal bureau, headed by Perry W. Howard, has in addition W. H. Lewis, Boston, Mass.; Henry Lincoln Johnson. James T. Peterson, Mobile, Ala., was chairman of the nominations committee. P. B. S. Pinchback, of New Orleans and New York, formerly governor of Louisiana, was elected honorary president of the League. The convention to be held in Chicago in September promises to be one of the greatest gatherings in the history of the Race. Dr. Robert S. Abbott has been selected as chairman of the local committee of arrangements, and he is expected to leave nothing undone that will bring success. On the speaking program will be men prominent in the business life of the nation of both races. The committee on publicity will fully acquaint every section of the country with every detail connected with the Chicago convention. INTERSTATE ASSOCIATION OF COLORED TRAINMEN INCORPORATE FOR PROTECTION OF RAILWAY EMPLOYEES Substantial Men of Oklahoma Incorporate Union for Protection of Colored Employees of the Nation's Railway System—Five Brotherhoods in Prospect. (Special to The Tribune) WASHINGTON, D. C., June 30.—The Interstate Association of Negro Trainmen of America, looking to the perfecting of a union of all unorganized colored employees of the railway lines of America, for their full protection in working conditions and wages, has been incorporated in the District of Columbia, following the completion of preliminary plans inaugurated about a year ago. Attorney E. T. Barbour, of El Reno, Okla., is named as general counsellor and organizer; Richard A. Buford, of Oklahoma City, Okla., is general secretary, under a bond of $5,000, with the United States Fidelity and Guarantee company. Both are substantial and reliable men of affairs of Oklahoma, and are vouched for by the strongest financial forces of that state. L. Melendez Kng, of Washington, D. C., and William T. Francis, of St. Paul, Minn., leaders of the bar in their respective communities, are associated with the general counsellor's staff, assuring a strong legal combination. J. H. Maxwell, supervisor of the Pennsylvania Railway wormitories at Washington, recognized as a capable business man by the Pennsylvania company, which employs over eight hundred Negroes, is one of the incorporators of the association and will have an important part in the direction of its affairs. Wallace Barksdale of this city, also a railway attache, is a charter member and an active worker in the organization. The objects of the Interstate Association of Negro Trainmen are: To maintain and insure standard working conditions and a uniform wage scale; to destroy caste and color prejudice that militate against justice as to these essentials; and to establish reciprocity between such other bodies of organized labor as shall be necessary for the promotion of the welfare of the Negro employees of the nation's railway lines. It has the exclusive right, under its terms of incorporation, to form a national union of Negro railway employees, subordinate associations as auxiliaries to the parent stem. The association at this time has upwards of 2,000 members, and its branches extend into the states of Pennsylvania, Maryland, New York, Ohio, Florida, Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Missouri, Kansas, New Mexico, Texas and the District of Columbia. The present plans contemplate the formation of five brotherhoods, to include all classes of labor now being performed by members of the race upon the railway systems of the land. The promoters declare that the Interstate Association is destined to become one of the greatest labor unions in the United States, not less effective from a racial standpoint than the American Federation of Labor, in conserving the common rights of our trainmen. Recently the general counsellor, E. T. Barbour, was invited into conference at Atlantic City by Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, for a complete survey of the wishes and policies of the association in the maintenance of union reciprocity between the A. F. of L. and the Negro Trainmen's Association. Subsequent to this interview, Mr. Barbour had decided that no further negotiations will be entered into until the matter can be thoroughly considered at the forthcoming special meeting of the trainmen, as it is felt that the formation of any kind of an alliance just now might not be to the best interests of the Negro employees in question. The primary aim of the organizers is to place the association upon a firm business basis, and its success in attracting to its ranks a group of our most intelligent, influential and public-spirited men is regarded as a tribute to its worth as a factor for racial uplift. The phenomenal progress made during the past few months is persuading its sponsors to believe that the association is to fill a large place 5 Cents a Copy; $2 a Year NATION OF COLORED RPORATE FOR PRO- RAILWAY EMPLOYEES in American history, far surpassing any previous effort to mobilize the thousands of Negro trainmen, who have needed only progressive leader ship to obtain the rights and immunities due them.

Automobiles were waiting to convey them to Irvine park, where a big dance was in full swing and the ladies anxious to greet the soldier boys. After tripping the light fantastic until he wee sma' hours, the boys were taken to the De Luxe hotel, where arrangements had been made for their accommodation. Saturday afternoon the band boys went out to the fair grounds, where the Luke Memorial exercises were being held, and dispensed music to the large crowd. In the evening they gave a short concert at the city hall plaza and many turned to hear this wonderful aggregation of colored musicians. Sunday afternoon from 2 o'clock until 6 the soldiers were the guests of the colored citizens of Phoenix at East Lake park, where the members of the Phoenix Protective League had made elaborate preparations to entertain them. The musicians favored the audience with a few choice selections and were then escorted to the festive board, where all the delicacies of the season, including red lemonade, were served them. After the feast, the single men in the company were introduced to the fair maidens of this city and together they strolled around the park. The married men of the company were introduced to the leading members of the race in this city, such as the president of the League, pastors of the various churches and other distinguished men. Before leaving the park the musicians assembled and rendered some classical selections, to the delight of all present. A group picture was taken of the vast throng by one of the musicians and, when developed, it may be turned over to the Tribune and reproduced in these columns. On leaving the park the musicians went to the state capitol, and of several hours entertained the PAGE TWO thousands of people gathered there on the capitol grounds. Monday evening a special farewell dance was given at Irvine park for the musicians and all the ladies in town were out to bid them adieu. They had the time of their lives, and should Uncle Sam request them to come to Phoenix again, we will wager a guess that there would not be one dissenting member in the group. That was only a sample of Phoenix hospitality, boys; just come again and let us show you our best side. Au revoir, gallant heroes, we pray the Supreme Architect of the universe will guide and keep you and that you may all be safely returned to us. Los Angeles Visitor Here Mr. J. C.

(ByNikola Tesla, in an Interview with Frederick M. Kerby) As the inventor of the alternating, current, the world is indebted to Mr. Tesla for the use of electricity carried long distances. He now diseusses the probability that airplanes will rise to great heights and travel at speeds that seem in- credible. This article is written, in part, by Mr, Tesla him- self. The rest'is written from stenographic notes. It gives, very likely, a glimpse of the immediate future— Reeon- struction, v 3988 Sitting in his office on the twenty-fifth floor of the Woolworth tower, Mr, J. Pierpont Jones, American business man, will one day glance at his watch and discover it is 3 o’clock in the afternoon. _ By George!” he will say, buzzing for his seeretary, ‘‘if I don’t hurry Ul be late for that dinner engagement at the Savoy!”? And as his secretary answers the buzzer :, “Charles, when does the next London bus leave?”’ . “Three-thirty, sir,’’ says Charles. ‘‘You can make it if you hurry. ‘The ear is waiting.”” And fifteen minutes later Mr, J. Pierpont Jones will emerge from the elevator on the aeronautic landing stage of lower Manhattan, clitab into the hermetically sealed steel fuselage of the New York- London Airline, Limited, which will rise promptly at 3:30 p.m. At seven that night he will climb out of his%ompattment on the land. ing stage on the Thames Embankment, and descend to meet his friend for dinner. «. kee PERTH ‘The three-hour aeroplane trip trom New York to London, flying above the storm level at eight miles above the earth’s surface is the possibility of the immediate future. This is not my own prediction. It is the result of sixteen pages of close caletilations in higher mathematies made by Nikola Tesla, to test and check up other pages of intricate calenlations made by Samuel D, Mott, charter member of the Aero Club of America, Mr. Mott asserts that the three-hour trip to London from New York is a question of rising into rarefied air where the air pressure is only one-fifth what it is at the earth's surface, at which point an “‘altiplane,’’ as he has named the flying machine of the future, may be expected to fly five times as fast as at the earth’s surface. And if the speed of the aeroplane is increawed not five times but only one. fifth, Mr. Mott says the trip will be made anyhow in the rarefied aix cight miles above the earth's surfaee in not more than twelve hours’ running time. And Nikola Tesla agrees that taking a plane to such an altitude must result in great increase of speed, although he does not wish, in the absence of exact knowledge of certain factors entermg into the problem, to predict exact speeds. i Speaking before the Pan-American Aeronautic convention at Atlantic City, Mr. Métt asserted that in order to avoid being weather- bound as were the aviators at Newfoundland, it will be necessary to coustrnet planes that will rise above the storm limit, “LT submit,’ he said, ‘that waiting indefinitely for ideal weather conditions for long-distance flying over land or sea will not do for the demands of commerce. ‘Therefore, I would bring to your atten- tion the possibilities of the altitude plane or altiplane, as distin- guished from the airplane or hydroplane, to go into the stillness of nature above the weather, Saidahig in SAR ign viet A small detegation of the Albuquer que district conference and Sunday School convention, only representing the Arizona end of the district how- ever. The meeting Was held at Prinee’s, chapel A. M. B. church, on June 25th and 26th, with Rev. J.-H. Allen presiding. The people of Tue- son turned out in great numbers arid really made themselves felt. On Wed nesday evening, after having been fay: ored with a strong gospel sermon de. livered by Rev. R. H. Herring of Phoe- nix. A literary program was then rendered by member's and friends. of Princes chapel, in honor of ininisiers and delegates, The crowning fea tures of this program were there in: strumental solos rendered by the foi lowing young ladies: | Miss -Camille Watkins, Miss Lucurda Johnson and Miss Tari Makey. The climax was then capped by 4 vocal solo, entitled “The Holy City.” This was sung by little Dorothy A. Luen. We don’ need all the bells to ring when we can listen ‘to Dorothy sing. ‘This convention closed on Thursday evening, with quite a number of in. teresting addresses and papers full of research delivered by members an¢ friends of the church. Also we were favored with a short, but very spicy sermon delivered by Rev. J. A. Wim. berly of Phoenix. After all the people of Tueson are made to realize that there are some preachers in Phoenix Mrs. Louise Neal and daughter, Mrs. L, B. Philipps, the mother and sister of Mrs. Annie Humphrey, spent a few very pleasant days while visiting with Mrs. Humphrey in this city. . They have now returned to their home in El Paso. We°hope they will soon be coming to Tucson again, as there is ‘no place like it. This will be understood if we compare, for instance, water and oil. The latter is lighter, but mueh more sticky, so that it is a greater ‘obstacle to propulsion than water. Air is a very viseuous substance jd that part of resistance which is due to this quality’ is consider. able. We must take this latter resistance into account in calculating how fast an aeroplane could fly in the upper reaches of the air. “Now, the idea is to fly at a great height where the air is rare- fied, and therefore much less power is required to propel the ma- chine through it. If we take the pressure at sea-level at 14.7 pounds ‘and the temperature at 15 degrees centigrade, then, without intro- dieing several corrections that would make for greater accuracy, ‘the pressures at different heights are about as follows: At 1,000 feet above sea level, 14.178 pounds; at one mile, 12.145 pounds; at ‘two miles, 10.035 pounds; at eight miles, 3.1926 pounds; at fifteen miles, 0.8392 pounds, and at twenty miles, 0.323 pounds,” Condition Eight Miles Up ‘According to these figures that I have worked out, at a height of eight miles the density of the air is 0.2172, or about 22.100th of that at sea level; at fifteen miles it is 0.057, and at twenty miles only 0.0219, or nearly 22-1000th of that at sea level. “Let us suppose, then, that an aeroplane rises to a height of eight miles where the pressure of the air will be only 3.1926 pounds, or, in other words, the density 0.2172 of that at sea level. Since, as ponted out, the purely frictional resistance is proportionate to the “The problem is evidently one of equipment of our planes to function in rarefied air, and protection of navigators against its tenu- ity; likewise protection of their body warmth and comfort in. ex- tremes of temperature. How high we may go no one may know until ‘tested, Personally I believe it possible to go fifteen or twenty miles ‘aloft, it necessary, It is obviously a matter of equipment plus elimb- ‘ing ability of aireraft designed, for the purpose. | What is the object of high flying? Daily experience shows us ‘that high speed and density ave ineompatible. We know that we ‘must furnish aireraft with four times the power to go twice as fast, and the marine engineer knows that he must furnish eight times the power to go twice as fast. In other words, from the ultimate height of the air to the earth's core pressure ‘is progressive. Thirty-three feet below the ocean’s surface the pressure doubles. For every 1,000 feet ascent the pressure diminishes roughly on-half pound per square inch. The presssure two miles high is 9.8 pounds per square inch; at one mile, 13.33; one-quarter mile, 14.2, and-at sea level, 14.7 pounds, or, in round numbers, 15 pounds per square inch. “The unknown factor in the high altitude problem is this: Will an altiplane in one-fifth density (eight miles high), with equal push, go five times faster or one-fifth faster? The rest is a matter of sim- ple equipment and good construction. In either case the gain is sub- stantial. If the former were true, a voyage between New York and London can be made in about three hours by going eight miles high. If the latter is true, the same voyage can be made in about twelve hours’ running time, assuming a surface speed of 200 miles an hour, which is practically a question of power. “to my mind it is plain that the high altitures will be determin. ing factors in long-distance flying. Greater speed, greater distance, ‘nore comfort and less danger in the quiet envirortment, less danger because when we double the time to do a risky thing, we double the ‘risk incurred ; less gasolene, less weight and expense, for if environ: ment permits us to go 100 miles with twice ‘the fuel we formerly nsed to go twenty-five miles our economic gain is obviously 100 per cent, because we may then go 100 miles with the amount of fuel we formerly consumed to go fifty miles.”’ ‘That aerial navigation at higher altitudes jwill undoubtedly result in great increase of speed is also the opinion of Nikola Tesla, to whom I took Mr. Mott's eonelusions in order to get the opinion of this man who has made a life-time study of the air as a medium for the transmission or electrical energy. “In the propulsion of aerial vessels problems are involved en- tively different from those presented in the navigation of the water,” said Tesla. ‘‘The atmosphere may be likened to a vast ocean, but if one imagines a submarine vessel constructed like an aeroplane, one immediately realizes how inefficient it would be. The energy used ja propelling a body through a medium of any kind is wasted in three different ways; first, by skin friction; second, wave making; third, production of eddies. On general principles, however, the resistance can be divided into two parts: one which is due to thé friction of the medium and the other to its stickiness, or viscosity, as it is termed. ‘The first is proportionate to the density ; the second to this peculiar property of the fluid, : £. “Everybody will readily understand that the denser the medium the barder it is to push body through it, but it-might-aot be clear PAGE THREE Bor Oa aN ess Ao tg A Ra ca toe ee ee eee 4 %, * : Don’t Fail to Attend the t "y - : ie ae MID-SUMMER . boston ore E Clearance Sale : ; on DRESSES, SKIRTS, SUITS, DOLMANS,.

At an Altitude of Twenty Miles “I doubt that it will be possible to rise as high as fifteen or twenty miles, which is the opinion expressed by Mr. Mott. At the height of twenty miles there is only about 7 per cent of oxygen iit the air instead of 21 per cent which is present close to the ground, (Continued on page 4) .

Then the pressure which its body is built with proper protection of the of oxygen, Tesla believes that flight quite possible.

It is practicable to cause of four or five thousand mioscopically or electrically that is intended to have it land, which we can there be detonated. We done by means of the press plant it can be done, and we in war between nations at a distance so destructive and demoral them. That is why there must be and there would be great trouble in securing the oxygen supply for the combustion of the fuel, not to speak of other limitations. "However, at a height of eight miles the decrease of oxygen can be overcome for both engine and aviator. Of course, provision would have to be made for supplying the aviator and passengers with oxygen. In all probability they would have to be entirely enclosed just as a diver is enclosed. Our highest mountains are five miles and the rarefication of the air makes climbing them difficult. Above five miles provision would certainly have to be made for supplying the aviator. If he were not enclosed, the decrease of pressure due to the thinner air would result disastrously. The human mechanism is adjusted to a pressure of nearly 15 pounds per square inch; and if that pressure is reduced to about three pounds, as it would be at an altitude of eight miles, the aviator's ear-drums would burst, and even the blood would be forced through the pores and would ooze out of the body." Tesla explained that the effect would be the same as that of bringing a deep-sea fish, accustomed to live a mile below the surface, to the surface of the water. The fish simply explodes for lack of the pressure which its body is built to withstand. With proper protection of the aviator and an artificial supply of oxygen, Tesla believes that flights at the eight-mile altitude are quite possible. "Then there will be great progress with the lighter than air machine and we may soon expect the advent of a dirigible of the Zeppelin type as a common vehicle for travel. Contrary to the general belief, such a vessel can be propelled more rapidly than an airplane and it will be, on the whole, much safer. Furthermore, it will give to the passengers the comforts that are necessary in order to make this form of travel popular. Of course, in the practical use of these monstrous structures, formidable obstacles will be encountered. They are susceptible to damage by storms, and I believe also from certain danger from lightning, which will not be obviated by the use of helium gas. But I expect to see these difficulties overcome. The dirigible, supplied with sufficient power, need not fear the storm; it can rise above it, or go around it. The only danger from storm in any case lies in being blown from the course, for, while the ship is moving with the storm it is in no danger, since it travels at the same speed as the wind, and the passengers would be in absolutely quiet air, so that a candle might be lighted on deck. Methods of docking and housing the big ships must be devised, but several have been proposed that reduce the danger of landing by making it unnecessary for the ship to come to earth." But the revolutionizing influence on aircraft of the future Mr. Tesla believes to lie in the possibility of transmitting power to them through the air. "For years,' he said, "I have advocated my system of wireless transmission of power which is now perfectly practicable and I am looking forward confidently to its adoption and further development. In the system I have developed, distance is of absolutely no consequence. That is to say, a Zeppelin vessel would receive the same power whether it was 12,000 miles away or immediately above the power plant. The application of wireless power for aerial propulsion will do away with a great deal of complication and waste, and it is difficult to imagine that a more perfect means will ever be found to transport human beings to great distances economically. The power supply is virtually unlimited, as any number of power plants can be operated together, supplying energy to airships just as trains running on tracks are now supplied with electrical energy through rails or wires. "The transmission of power by wireless will do away with the present necessity for carrying fuel on the airplane or airship. The motors of the plane or airship will be energized by this transmitted power, and there will be no such thing as limitation on their radius of action, since they can pick up power at any point on the globe." "The advance of science to this point, however, is attended with terrible risks for the world. We are facing a condition that is positively appalling if we ever permit warfare to invade the earth again. For up to the present war the main destructive force was provided by guns which are limited by the size of the projectile and the distance it can be thrown. In the future nations will fight each other thousands of miles apart. No soldier will see his enemy. In fact, future war will not be conducted by men directly but by the forces which if let loose may well destroy civilization completely. If war comes again, I look for the extensive use of self-propelled air vehicles carrying enormous charges of explosive which will be sent from any point to another to do their destructive work, with no human being to guide them. The distance to which they can be sent is practically unlimited and the amount of explosive they can carry is likewise practically unlimited. It is practicable to send such an air vessel say to a distance of four or five thousand miles and so control its course either gyroscopically or electrically that it will land at the exact spot where it is intended to have it land, within a few feet, and its cargo of explosive can there be detonated. "This cannot be done by means of the present wireless plants, but with a proper plant it can be done, and we have here the appalling prospect of a war between nations at a distance of thousands of miles, with weapons so destructive and demoralizing that the world could not endure them. That is why there must be no more war." Mr. Fleming has completed the building of his house and is now living in it. Little Fred Fleming celebrated his second anniversary last week. Bertha Smith served while the other kiddies enjoyed themselves eating ice cream, cake, etc. Mr. Geo. Fagans returned to Ajo Sunday after an absence of nearly four months. Mr. C.
