Germans Bad Error
[continued from page II

itself felt in the struggle. 1t is
lacking in equipment and has not
been able to demonstrate its full
worth against the Germans. Else
where, however, troops of the British
Empire have acquitted themselves
we'll. A South African army has
wrested German Southwest Africa
from the Teutons; Australians and
New Zealanders have seized Ger
many"s Pacific colonies and an
Anglo-Indiap force has wrested the
Persian gulf hinterhnd from the
Turks and has conquered the legend
airy site of the Garden of Eden, be-
tween the Tigris and Euphrates riv-
ers. Ergland's most important con-
tributions to the war, however, have
been made by her feet, and by the
ability of her bankers to finance the
Allies under conditions of unprece-
dented interferences with foreign
trade balances.
Austria's recovery from the effects
OF her early defeat by Russia is due
largely to the example set her by
Germany and to strategic plans
created by the German general staff.
The Austrians have now resigned
the management of the entire cam
paign against Russia to the Germans,
and are supplying very few troops TO
reinforce German eastern armies.
Austrian military activity is at pres
ent chiefly concerned with resisting
Italy. 1t is too early to say Hhat
ltaly's entrance into the war will
mean, just as the fate of Constanti-
nople cannot be foretold. The chief
problem for the Italians, and for the
Turks, is how to obtain a sufficient
supply of ammunition. The increas-
ing number of belligerents in fact, is
outrunning the worlds supply If
munitions. At the beginning of the
wars second summer, civilization IS
demonstrating her inability to man
ufacture implements of death in suf-
ficient quantities to satisfy the worlds
for them. Civilization re-
to commit suicide. This is the |
brightest hope for an early peace.

Henry woodhouse. Governor Of the
Aero Club Of America, akx1 made an
earnest appeal to the Sfnate to make
ample provision for the aAronautfeAi
arm Of the national defense. s's''S".
Letters have been sent to Seh3tofS
and Mr.. Woodhouse will urge before tbs
Senate Naval Committee an adequate
appropriation. The sum Of $z5oo.oo0 for
the development Of aeroplanes for the
army and twice that sum for the navy
are asked.
'"The aeroplane raids in Europe" says
Mr.. Woodhouse. 'in which as many n
forty aeroplanes were employed. brings
added emphasis to the necessity Of the
Senate's careful consideration Of the
matter Of increasing the army and
navy appropriations for aeronautics.
The army and navy together have only
one dozen aeroplanes in good condition
and will not have tho means Of replao-
ing wornout and damaged aeropianes
until next July.
1.-THE Panama canal. the Philippine
islands, and Hawaii have no aerial pro-
lection; the big guns at Corresidor have
no aerial eyes The army has q single
single aeronautical center. The bulk of
officers Of the United States army have
never seen an aeroplane. nor have the
rank and file: no provision has been
made to give aerial observers to the
artillery, nor has the artillery been
given an opportunity to practice with
the cooperation Of the air service"

BIGGER FOOD SHOW
PLANNED FOR 1916
Exposition lust Closed Was
Success, But Dealers Look
for Even Broader Results.

A more elaborate food exposition for
next year Is already being planned by
dealers at Center Market. the one which
closed there Saturday night having
been most successful.
As the exposition was tho first Of its
kind ever given at Center Market. 1t
was largely OF an experimental nature.
and many merchants are of the opinion
that a second one would command
wider recognition both from manufac-
turers and the general public.
The crowd on the last night was not
as large as that 6f Friday or Wednes-
day nights. but It was buying
crowd. and hundreds Of the visitors
carried away well-nlled baskets. The
principal object Of the exposition. how
ever. was not to. bring a large busi-
ness during the progress Of the show.
but to familiarixe the Washington pub
lie with tho purchasing power Of a
dollar spent at the Center Market.
Most Of the exhibitors are Of the opin-
lon that the new customers thus gain
ed are very considerable number.
Two principal attractions during the
exposition were the ten concerts by
tho Marine Band the last OF which
was given last night. and tho elaborate
decorations. which cost more than 81, ,00O
