ROYAL GREETING..

The Queen of Rumania, accompanied by and her daughters, Princesa Maric Princess Leana, reached, London on March 19th on her visit to the King and Queen.

A correspondent in the Daily Telegraph

The story of its remarkable development and effect upon the war is now told for the first time.

It has made intereúmmunication be tween aeroplane and aeroplane possible over a distance of 400 miles, with less power than is used by a ship at sen to communicate 900 miles.

AIDED ALLE NAVIGATION,

It has made aurial navigation, possible irrespective of weather conditions.

It has made the transmission of human speech between the occupants of one aero plane to the persons on another aeroplane possible over a distance of 25 miles.

Of these its effect upon aerial naviga- tiou is the most recent and most pheno- menal of the developments arising out of the welter of war.
