ENGLISH AVTATORS FLY
TO FRENCH BATTLEFIELDS
Royal Corps Makes Aeronautical as Well
as Military History by It's
Air Trips.

LONDON. September 5.-"Few people
know that the Royal Flying Corps have
made aeronautical, as well as military,
history by sending at short notice aero
planes across the channel by the air
route, without mishap,' says CORE
spondent of the Pail Mall Gazette.
''As a combined flight" he continues,
this surpasses anything ever done in
aviation, but 1t was only part of a
big movement. Other machines had
flown across the previous day.
"At the present moment these air
squadrons, besides the reserves. are
with the expeditionary forces, but
apart from the news of the two fatal
accidents and the appearance of an
airman'S name among the wounded
nothing authentic has been published
concerning the doings of the Royal
Flying Corps"

The correspondent points out that nu-
merically the French and British fifth
arm was inferior to the Germans on the
allies left wing until the arrival of REIN
forcements. The evidence pointed to a
general superiority of the German air
craft and to a desire to create a depress-
ing moral effect by the parade of vast
number of aeroplanes, which are being
actively employed.
AS far as reconnaissance goes, the
writer adds, 1t is not necessary to make
such demonstrations, and the effect on
the troops of the small bombs that can
be thrown is negligible. The British aero
planes have directed the artillery fire, as
have the German, and have been con-
| stantly employed for scouting

SAYS KITCHENER'S BROTHER

Kitchener, was the conquest of the sea,
and If he succeeded in the present war
Belgium and Holland were his goal. He
would then take war indemnties suffi-

ships. which would insure victory over
Great Britain.
Forty million dollars had been asked
from Brussels, said Col. Kitchener. What
would the kaiser demand from cities like
London and Liverpool? Their very ex-
istence depended upon their men, and II
the men did not come forward steps
would have to be taken to compel them
to do so.
