U. S. DIRIGIBLES
THE WORLD’S LARGEST United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright United Service (Received 9th October, 10.15 a.m.) NEW YORK, Bth October. “We make war on no nation) but we should be ready and able to fill with subsequent regret anyone attacking us,” said Brisbane Hearst in an editorial congratulating the Government on placing an order for two dirigibles, by far the world’s largest, each carrying five ’planes for scouting. The editorial adds that a fleet of such dirigibles, each carrying fifty tons of explosives and modern war gas, would be able to unleash a hundred fast destructive ’planes, which would leave with Uncle Sam’s compliments.
