AVIATION ILLNESS.
Peculiar Distress That Comes to
Many Aerial Navigators.
FLIERS SHOULD BE ROBUST.
They Should Also Be Young, Resoluta
and Cool Headed, With Sight and
Hearing and Nervous and Vascular
Systems Perfaotly Sound,
Those who are up Into the air in fly
ing machines as well as those who go
down to the sea in ships are troubled
by peculiar and unpleasant physiolog
ical disturbances which may at time3
be of grave moment This is especial
ly true of aeroplane pilots or passen
gers and to less degree of those who
ascend in balloons or dirigibles. The
tremendous importance of aviation in
war lends this subject peculiar inter
est, and Larousse Mensuel (Paris) de
votes a special article to the topic. The
author. Dr. Laumonler, states that the
symptoms vary according to the period
of ascent, of descent and of landing.
In ascending an acceleration of the
respiration and pulse are frequently
noted at from 1,200 to 1,500 meters al
titude, accompanied by a slight bead
ache located in forehead and temples
and by indefinable discomfort -without
vomiting or nausea. At l.SOO meters
there is a diminution in the keenness
of hearing; at times there are halluci
nations and finally an "asthenic" con
dition which prevents the muscles from
obeying the will With adequate rapid
ity.
On descending the palpitations of
the heart become violent and are ac
companied by a sensation of anguish,
the headache Is intense, the aviator
has an increasing sensation of heat of
the skin, especially of the face, and a
desire to sleep, which Is sometimes so
strong that the eyes Involuntarily close
as he approaches the earth. In spite of
Imminent peril.
Strange to say, on landing these trou
bles are augmented. Besides the head
ache and the somnolence, hyperemia of
the conjunctive (conjunctives) is ob
served, with cyanosis of the extremi
ties, acceleration of the pulse and con
stant Increase of arterial pressure. The
aviator often falls asleep as soon as he
lands, and this sleep Is troubled and
nonrefreshlng, -while the headache may
persist for many hours or even several
days.
The ascent symptoms recall those of
"mountain sickness," but are produced
at a less altitude, because of the nerv
ous tension, the cold and above all the
relative rapidity of ascension. But
what distinguishes aviators' sickness
from mountain sickness is that the
symptoms persist during descent and
are aggravated after landing. There
are besides vasomotor reactions -with
hypertension which are peculiar to
tills malady and give It, according to
Crochet and Moullnler, a sort of noso
graphlc autonomy. However, these
troubles are not felt with the same in
tensity by all aviators. Some find they
diminish ^ith experience, as In the
case of seasickness. It appears to be
true that their Intensity depends prin
cipally on the rapidity of the descent.
The causes to which are ascribed
these symptoms include cold and phys
ical, nervous and moral fatigue. While
cold may provoke the imperious need
of sleep, It cannot be the sole cause,
since the somnolence Increases on de
scending Into warmer air and after
landing. Analogous objections are
made to fatigue as a cause.
The most important of the determin
ing causes, according to the authorities
quoted above. Is speed, not horizontal,
but vertical speed, which causes rapid
decompression and recompression in
ascending and descending. At Pau
Legagneux ascended to 3.200 meters
In twenty-eight minutes, whereas it
would have taken an Alpinist eleven
hours to ascend the same distance on
foot. At Varenne-sur-AllIer Vedrlnes
descended In three minutes from a
height of 3,000 meters. The difference
of gaseous tension is too great for the
organism to regain its equilibrium In
so short a time.
Since these symptoms are not morbid
they disappear naturally In a few hours
or at most a few days, their cessation
being favored by rest, sleep and moder
ate warmth. Nevertheless they are of
grave Importance because of the dan
gers to which they expose aviators.
Hence It is highly advisable that
fliers should be young, robust, resolute
and cool headed men, with sight, hear
ing, nervous and vascular systems per
fectly sound. And there should be
rigorous ellmliiatiou of candidates who
have a tendency to heart trouble, epi
lepsy. tuberculosis, hardening of ar
teries, nervous troubles, etc. They
should have methodical and progres
sive training, a diet nourishing, but
not bulky, and as little fermentable as
possible. They must abstain from al
cohol and not abuse tea or coffee.
The clothing must be very warm, but
not heavy enough to restrict movement
The wearing of goggles, putting cotton
in the nostrils and greasing face and
hands will be sufficient protection
against cold. Finally they are advised
to mount as slowly as possible and to
descend even more slowly.
Where the Blame Lay.
The Duke de Montausier, preceptor to
the dauphin, son of Louis XIV., being
told by the king that he had pardoned
a man who had killed nineteen persons
after having been pardoned for the first
murder he committed, replied: "Sire,
he killed but one. Your majesty killed
the nineteen."
Manufacturing sorrow Is one of the
worst of sins.

capitalist, aesrotolane enthusiast and
sportsman.
Both af thecie plrojectsi are look
ed upon as Important because of
th^ defens.® operations centered in
the Northwest. They will be open
to seniors and: graduate students
and will no,* be detilignekl to give
