SIGHTLESS ARMY.

MAKUK TO DOWNING STREET.

After their long tramp, the blind marchers are nearing London, says a mail peper. In a heavy downpour of pain they reached Watford and settled down "for two, nights' rest before commencing the final stage of their journey, to Down- ing-street, and, they hope, to Mr. Lloyd George. This sightless army is the most Hghthearted demonstra- tion on record. Only one thing annoys them, and that is to be regarded as pitiable objects. Not even the dismal weather, could damp their spirits, and they marched in military formation, with, beads erect, sing- ing popular ditties to the music of an improvised Jazz band: After they had. fefe St. Albans at midday they were joined by a grey-haired veteran from Manchester, who has been blind from his childhood days. He stepped out bravely, sometimes stumbling by the way, but always smiling and cheerful. He produced a tin whistle, and struck up a lively tone. This was the signal for many others to follow suit. 'Accompanying the procession were three boys of 13, who had tramped all the weary way from Manchester to guide their blind fathers along the route.- Many motorists, who passed by were touched at this, and several of them pulled up, and showed their sympathy by putting Treasury notes into the collecting boxes

At Watford the sightless were given a warm welcome by the townsfolk, and provided with a hearty meal in the Co-operative. Hall Then, after Ettle speech- making, they lit pipes and cigarettes and entertained themselves with what must have been the 'noisest smoking concert in the annals of Watford.

A generation ago a mile a minute on the railways was the fastest speed at which a man beleved he could be carried by any mechanical means- of locomotion. And it was a theoretical rather than a practical speed. That is, it was a speed that trains could attain but very rarely did.. Before the war there were one or two mile- a-minute expresses in England,

haps there are none. Railway speed has, in fact, declined.

It has been different in all other

forms of locomotion. Road speets, thanks to the motor-car, have doubled and trebled. The car, we know from racing performances, can touch two miles a minute under favourable condi tions. The aeroplane probably does three miles a minete now and again. And now at last a speed of a mile a minute that old standard speed with which, we have, rather generously credited the railhas been reached on the sea.

At Monaco the motor boat Sunbeam Despujols III. covered a nautical mile in 1min. 3 45sec.; which gives a speed-of-56.43-knots, or of over 60 miles an hour. This is, of course, an exceptional speed attained by a freak" boat, and it does not mean that we are coming

liners. Liners and the faster cross- Channel steamers seem, as a matter of fact, to have settled, down comfortably to a standard the- oretical speed of about 25. knots and

effective speed of a knot or two less, much as the railways years ago settled down to a theoretical 60-miles-an-hour standarð, which was in reality rather lower,

Still, it remains that a boat has been built that is as fast as a rail- way locomotive. And battle-cruisers light cruisers larger than cross Chan nel steamers their 35, and destroyers their 40. High speeds, we have seen, can be attained at sea. i

The railways, then, no longer have the monopoly of speed." The motor- car and, the aeroplane are faster than the train. The locomotive has yet to be built that can attain the maximum speed of either. And the boat has come that can do a mile at a speed equal to that of the fastest pre-war express. What we would have said" was "impossible a genera. tion azo has happened. The machine or rails is now beaten for speed by every form of trackless machine.

True, for travel from one ezd to an other of Britain the rail is still quicker than the road for passenger traffic, for the reason that on our crowded · | roads the car cannot go "all out”. And, as noted just now; 25 knots. seems to be a speed with which liner- owners will be content for some time to come. But on the road and the sea and in the air, speeds 'un- dreamt of a few years ago are now possible, whereas the railway' ideal of a mile a minute, from away back in the sixties or seventies of the past century, is rarely attained day, pevalained to-
