WITH BROKEN NECK WANTS FAST DANCE A sstem of Indicating Instantly and briefly the effect of artllery fire as ob served by aviators' will be devised dur ing the present maneuvers at Fori Riley, Kan. Wireless communication will be depended upon primarily, but a sstem of flag signals will be per fected as an auxiliary, to bo used if the wireless apparatus falls. So far only France has developed a satisfactory system, and Ibis Is held as u secret. The United States must de velop Its own schema of transmitting signals. Although the aeroplane would seom valuable In detecting the movements and location of an enemy, It Is not for this purpose that the air squad will be used. 8couts are attached to batteries now, and will be relied upon to Inform tho artlllcrvmen of where their target stunds. The aeroplane will bo dovetoped as a source of Information to tho gun ners to show them where their fire Is landing or where shells are bursting. For this brief, almost Instantaneous signals Indicating that a shot has fallen short, gone over, or to the right or left win bo required. Three officers from tho army aviation school nt College Park were sent to I ort Riley. Tliey were greeted wun open arms by artillery officers. Kxpcrt slgnulmen and topographers were detailed to work with them. Hnow has fallen at Fort Riley, and Impodea the work. Little has been done so far.
