How the War Can Be Won From the Skies Tremendous plans are now being formed to deliver a crippling blow at Germany’s military efficiency, not only “putting out her eyes,” but spreading havoc by aerial armadas numbered by thousands. Vast sums are to be spent for the establishment of an American air-fleet on a colossal scale, and training-schools for air-pilots are beginning to spring up like mushrooms over night. During the past three years, there has been in Europe not only an immense development of the art of flying, but a specific evolution of the allied art of the aerial duello. In THE LITERARY DIGEST for July 7th, one of the most interesting articles is a translation from«the French of Oscar Ribel, Chief Instructor in a f rench School of Pilotage.” This article explains in much detail, the tactics of air-fighting. It is illustrated by sketches which visualize the tactics of pursuit, offense, and defense. There are many other features of unusual interest in “The Digest ’ this week, among which are: A Coal Crisis Would Cripple Industry Old King Cole May Have Been a Jolly Old Soul, But the Modern King Coal Has Quite a Different Look.
