AVIATORS DEFENDED AS
EYES OF FRENCH ARMY
Aeroplanes Not Attacking In
strument, Is Explanation
of Lack Of Thrillers.

PARIS. Nov. S.-CriAc,sm which has
been directed at the French aviation ser
vice, particularly at the front, has brought
forth an answer from official sources In
which II is stated that the aeroplane
branch OF the army has done all that
could be asked of IL and Is invaluable.
II is claimed that the aeroplane Is not
primarily an attacking instrument but
that its greatest utility Is in supplement
ing the artillery and discovering the loca-
ton OF hostile troops. in other words, act
ing as "the eye OF the army"
The names of aviators have been seldom
mentioned In official announcements and
the French people have been wont TO ask
what their heroes OF the air have been
doing. such as Nedrnes, Paulhan. Garros,
Brindejonc and others
The answer to this ia that these men
have been doing their duty and have
rendered great service at every poinr.
The reason they are not seen oftener fly
ing above the Allies lines is that they
are frequently soaring back ~ the Ger
man lines and hence are not visible 10

defensive line was strong in earthworks

at the Wharf.-The. because the Russians
reached there first, and according to
the official and unofficial statements
the whole line OF defence went to
pieces.
Some German troops appear TO be
in the extreme west of Poland still and

that a Russian cavalry force was de-
feated near k0,o. losing guns and pris-
oners According To the Russian Cen
eral Staff, how vcr. Russian force,
probably Of cavalry. has occupied

There are unofficial reports that the
Russians have broken through further
to the south and ere invading Silesia

chova. which is reported to have been
evacuated by the Germans. Since the
German defeat at Warsaw, Czensta-

There is a suggestion that Russia. having

lecture Is rot borne out by the news and
by the known factors which dominate

that Russia would abandon an effort

important etill Is the knowledge that the
Grand Duke Nicholas is not hampered by
the politicians Of the empire and does
not have to sacrifice military advantages
