TORPEDOES SHOT FROM AIR ALLIED NAVAL SECRET I . y

Phantoms From Clouds Sank Turkish Troopship Before Armistice Was Signed. (B Associated Press) LONDON'. Dec. 27. "Phantom torredoes" from the clouds Bank a Turkish ship carrying 3,000 troops, just befor; the end of hostilities, It has Just hecom known. Only the armistice prevented HL-r aerial "phantoms" operating efteotlvely against the German warships the Kiel Canal and other German naval shelters, it Is said. These hydroplanes discharging torpedoes above the water were the great secret of the British navy during the closing months of the war. Scien tific officers of this branch of the navy agree that these mysterious planes are designed to accomplish from he air more effectively and more swiftly what the torpedoes from submarines can achieve. It Is learned from naval authorities that an armored ship carrying 20 of these machines met the German surrender-fleet at sea ready for action in case the Germans should attempt some eleventh hour trickery. The same authorities declare It would have been simple work for those 20 machines to leap into the air and entirely wipe out the German fleet. Those amazing planes ascend from land or deck, climb thousands of feet feet for a sudden dive from the clouds at a speed of 160 miles an hour, straighten out 60 feet above the sea and discharge a torpedo direct at the enemy ship. Then they dlsapper into the clouds as suddenly as they appeared, and so swift that the enemy craft has no chance of training its guns on It. How the difficulty of discharging a torpedo in the air is overcome is a naval secret. It is known that serious accidents marked the experimental tests with these wonder machines. The sudden lightening of the aeroplane by the discharge of a heavy torpedo eometimes caused the wings to collapse and the pilot "wa3 hurled to death. On one experimental occasion such an airplane discharged a torpedo which hit the water, ricochetted, rose and; demolished the plane before the lat-; ter could get out of the way.

We are planning at present two years ahead. It may take ten, fifteen, thirty, Nicholson said. Of the workers now overseas there are about one hundred women, half of whom are nurses, Nicholson explained. The need for women to go from this country is not so great because competent French women can be secured, but there will not be as many French men now as there were, and there will not "be so much strength in many of those that are left. Men. from this country are being sought continually to volunteer service in the work which the Red Cross is sponsoring and the Friends organization carrying on. Artipans, carpenters, engineers, agriculturists and other workers f.re wanted. Need for New Workers. "There is no precedent for the jobs we want these men to take," Nicholson said, "and the training course we are again offering at Haverford college is of no definite length." Mr. Nicholson said that workers, 400 or 500 of whom had been in France continually since 1917, have come from 34 states of the union. Pennsylvania has probably sent the most, he said, and Indiana perhaps comes next. $873,000 has been raised by Friends for this work since June, 1917, and the Red Cross has transferred for this work $500,000, most of which has been used in France; some in Russia. He said he did not wish to discuss the Russian reconstruction as it is extremely difficult to tell what can and what will be done there. Great difficulty is being experienced in hearing from Friends' workers there, and it is Huff 4 fin
