In fairness to the Daily Mail, we ought to add

that we fully recognize the great public service it did in years past by forcing the need for aircraft preparation on our Government. It is a pity that this fine work should end in the publicat ion of such a piece of wild screaming as that of Mr. Pemberton-Billing. The plea of the Daily Mail for building more aeroplanes is, again, a different matter, and one upon which we do not doubt. the Government have already decided. We are also inclined to believe that there is a good deal to be said in favour of putting the air service under the conduct and management of a single man, a sort of new " Count of the Saxon. Shore."
