Why not? Flying machines can be developed only by using flying machines. The deaths of ten or a thousand brave fliers in experimental work now might mean, because of quick airplane development, the safety of millions in case of war. There will be no war but an air war, this nation should be ready for it, and courageous young army and navy men should be allowed, not forced, to risk their lives, if they choose, in the good cause. An automobile fight is coming, and when the dust settles you will find all those that understand the automobile business selling more cars than they ever sold. W ith big wages and prosperity, the two car man and the four car family are increasing. Thirty million new cars will take the places of twenty-two million old cars now running in the United States. Dr. Mees, who directs Mr. (Castman's scientific laboratories in Rochester, says science will end war by making it too deadly and too expensive. Another force greater than science in our civilization is working to end war, and ^hat lorce is organized money. Motley has discovered that war kills mote dollars than men, that it creates heavy income taxes, and other troubles. Organized money kn ?w> that luture wars would result, at the very start, in confiscation of capital to meet expenses. Organized money, which usually gets what it wants, doesn't want war? a eheerfftl fact. A young man who had been /?ronounced dead was brought to life fifteen minutes later by an injection >f adrenalin, a life substance secreted by one of the mysterious glands.
