Nations Prepare for Aerial Armageddon

Seven of the big nations of the world have appropriated this year $24,140,000 for the building of military air-ships and giving training in their use. France has appropriated $7,400,000; Germany, $5,000,000; Russia, $5,000,000; Great Britain, $3,500,000; Italy, $2,100,000; Japan, $1,000,000; the United States, $140,000. Present indications are that the nations will soon be called to expend as large sums in building navies of the air as they are now expending in building their navies of the sea. The nations of this earth are mad with the craze for war. The prophets have long foretold it, and the great war of Armageddon is the climax to the program.
