XT HAS TAKEN FRITZ A LONG But there are other signs that the Aohievement Means That Airplane Hos Nov Ascended Greater Height Than Any Point on Earth. .Following Is Lite London Daily Mairs aveount of the l'etient "six miles up" flight of two British fiver.; - -• The world's record for altitude for acroplano was broken at Martle- uear Ipswich, by Captain hang. Inane., and Lieutenant Inowee, the former acting pilot and tho latter being the passenger, the height reach- ed being 30,500 feet (or nearly six miles). Tho feat was aceomplished in. a British two seater biplane fitted with a British designed and British, built engine. It left the ground in a thirty- five mile wind. At 20,000 feet there was 31% de- grees of frost. A. height of 25,000 feet was reached in 38 minutes 20 seconds, and the final barograph reading of 80,- 500 feet in 66 minutes 15 seconds. The highest altitude hetherto re- - corded for an airplane was 25,800 feet, accomplished. in 1916 by an Italian pilot, who took 1 hour and 57 minutes, or nearly double the time taken by Captain Lang. The new record is ad- ditionally noteworthy in view of the fact that a passenger was carried. The achievement means -that altplane has now ascended to a greater height than any point of the earth, the high- est mountain. Mount Everest (Hima- layas) being 29,002 feet. There were one or two unpleasant experience:4 on Captain Lang's trip. At 20,000 feet Lieutenant Blowes turned on the oxygen supply, and a thousand feet higher, feeling faint, he turned on an extra 'pressure, but with no better result. He found that the main pipe connected with the oxygen bottle had broken through vibration. He wrote a note to the pilot telling him what had happened, but he collapsed' before hp could get the message to the pilot, who therefore carried on in ignorance of the oberver's plight. At 28,000 feet the pilot's heating apparatus was 'working erratically, and at 29,000 feet the shortage of oxygen was apparent. The pilot, however,- carried on till 30,500 feet was reached. Here the en- gine stopped through lack of petrol. The pressure of air .at thlis height was - inadequate to drive the small propel- lers working the petrol and oil pumps. Descending slowly, the machine got to 10,000 feet, where the observer re- gained conscioesness. Both airmen suffered from the effects of the flight. The observer was sent to the hospital suffering from frozen hands and toes. Captain Lang, the pilot, whose fin- gers and face are frostbitten, is a well known Australian motorist and in 1910 explored North Australia for his gov- WHILE TO LEARN GantlallS are ISeginnieg to .reall%o the "grave blunder they made in inniens estimating the strength, purely as military 'factor, of the British Etnpire.

The only individuals who seem to want to shun the British invader are the errean soldiers themselves.

The difference between their atti- tude and that of the pure civilians, is probably due to the fact that the The Real Character of the British Army, But He Shows To -day That He Has Learnt the Lesson. The crowds that stand all day and contemplate the smart and well set- up sentries outside headquarters and by the Rhine bridges at Cologne are sufficient evidence of the 'interest Which the native G•ertrian takes in our military forces, so newly and so surprisingly revealed to him, writes a British officer. When, on the Ca- thedral Square at Cologne, the bugler blows "Retreat," and the guard pre- sents arms, one may. see the native Hun freely indulgirig in such signs of approval as intimate nudges to his neighbor, or hear him give vent to guttural "Donnerwetters" of unquali- fied commendation. No • attention need be paid to the praise -which Ger- mans eagerly bestow on the turn -out of the British soldier in conversation With 'members of the shidney of Occu- pation. It is "cupboard love" in all senses of the expression. The Hun is "out" to curry favor with his "guests," both in order to propitiate them and, maybe, to ,get a share of their rations. More gene -miler his idea is to pave the way for that League of Nations the basis of which, according to German ideas, is to call the war a draw and let bygones—such bloodstained and ghastly bygones— be by-gones. Fortunately, to men who have had aetual! experience of the Germans' methods of warfare, these smooth words mean nothing.
