BLIMPS CARRY
LOAD OF DEATH
DEBTH BOMBS
An American Balloon Base In fcmfc* |
land, Sept., Z. —tne**Bump u» tn*
nickname which the American pilots
have given to tne little dirigible air
ships which are technically termed **£>.
£>.*', or Submarine £>couts.
The gas-bag 01 the Biimp is about
loO feet long and LIU ieet in diameter.
The lower structure is virtually tnat
of a scouting airplane of medium pow
-er, so that the whole effect is that ot
a sort of a cross between airplane and
balloon. The crew is usually one pilot
and an observer, and the speed is
about 40 miles an hour.
The cargo is a loan oi wmw
work like a destroyer’s depth charges,
exploding by water pressure a depth
of **0 to 80 feet. The carraige contains
steering gear, bomb lever, wireless ap
-paratus. carnra and observation in
struments. . t
Hundreds of Blimps are constant
on duty around the coasts of trance
and England. American pilots and ob
servers are just beginning to take up
this work. It is the greatest U-Boat
destrover in existence , it the men
who work the Blimp> are to be believ
ed. One enthusiastic American pdo
who had been dropping bombs up and
down the lri>h sea for a month, to
marked to The Associated Press cor
respondent, “The Blimp is not only
one of the ways of destroying l
Boats it is the way.
The advantage that the Blimp ha
over the seaplane is that it can stand
still in the air. If a U—boat dives
down and lies out of sight on the bot
tom. the Blimp sits over it until it de
cides to move on or come to the .sur
face. If the submarine does not move
the Blimp is just as well content, for
in the meantime the wireless has been
at work, and trawlers are coming up
in the course of an hour or two with
the necessary equipment to smoke
Mister Submarine out of his hole.
If the submarine rises before naval
help arrives, the Blimp tack es
alone with bombs. If the submarine
tries to move away along the bottom
of the sea. the Blimp follows its shad
ow until it comes, sooner or latter to
a shallow spot where it can be effect
ively dealt with.
Subject to the Blimp's fuel supply
and its “duration power" in the air,
there is little chance of escape for a
l —boat once it has l*een sighted by
one of these handy little dirigibles.
The sighting or spotting of the U—
boats is the great difficulty, for the
seas around England are large places
and the range of tin* individual Blimp
is comparatively small.
A larger type of Blimp is now be
ing used, known technically as the C.
l\ or Coast Patrol. It carries a larger
crew and a greater supply of fuel and
is used for detecting mine-fields as
well as submarines.
RELIGIONS V DM 1NI STRATI ON
PL VNNKD FOR JAPANESE.
TOKIO. Sept. 2.—The government j
is undertaking the work of revising
the Japanese law for religious admin- j
istration.
According to R. Okada, minister of
Education, time codes now actually In i
force were promulgated by the Jap-1
anese government over thirty years
ago. He saitl.
“1 think# th*? time has at least come
for revising the law, as the religious
situation of the country is becoming
wore and more deplorable on account
of the influence of many dangerous
thoughts which have recently boon ini
-ported from foreign countries.”
Mr. Okada declared that the newi
bill probably will be presented by thn
g w ‘rnment to the next imperial Diet,
which wiM be convened at the end of
the year.
