FRENCH PILOT,2l,
BAGS FIFTH AERO
Has All Medals, Now Gets
Mention for His
Air DuelS.

Paris, Feb. :. Sergeant Pilot Guy
nener, twenty-one years old of the
French flying corps. has just brought
down his fifth German adversary and
has been mentioned for his exploit in
M official communication. Previously
he had been decorated with the Cross
Of the Legion Of Honor, the War Cross
and the Military Medal for other feats.
VI. Guynemer was lad in college
when the war began and enlisted at
once. He had never been IN an aero
plane, but at the end OF seven days OF
training, instead Of the six weeks usu-
ally required, he made his trial flight
for a pilots license.
Not until December did he begin TO
make his record by hunting German
seroplanes. At that time he brought
down. single-handed, large German
biplane.
Sergeant Guynemer flies alone. as did
Garros and Pegoud, but instead Of a
monoplsne he uses great biplane. on
which he makes ninety miles an hour.
He accounted for four machines in nine
days. He also engaged one OF the ia
nous Fokkcr aeroplanes. and. though
there were two men aboard the Fokker,
he mannuvred skilfully until he
brought his gun in range. At distance
of fifteen yards he delivered a mortal
blow.
Between the time Of his fourth and
18th successful duel, Guynemer had a
narrow escape in a fight with Fokker.
At the moment Of firing, at distance
Of thirty yards, his gun became unus-
able. the lubricating oil having frozen.
He attempted quick turn, but, carried
on BIS the momentum, struck the Ger
man machine with his upper plane and
began to descend abruptly.
After falling for FIVE hundred yards
the biplane righted itself Guynemer
returned "a the headquarters OF his
fotiila. but had missed his fifth ma
chine. which he accounted for only a
few DAYS later.

They poured oil on him. and. before

Try Cable 20 The Tribune

Paris. Feb. THE French people
and newspapers refuse so far TO take
the American crisis over the Lusitanla
seriously. The Temps" says laconicsl-
~ that there il no need TO become eX-
cited. as the situation has lasted ten
months and the chances are that it will
pass away again.
The general attitude is we'll Illus
trated by a long article by Georges
Clemenceau under the title American
Democracy in Action" in which he in
dulges his sarcastic wit az Presiden.
Wilson's expense.
There is certainly tension in Amer
ica," he says. "but it is not the fault
of the President, who is one of the
most eminent OF modern red tape art
lists and is expert at enveloping dis
cussion in a cloud of pettifogging de-
but as his connections are all with
heaven he cannot understand earthly
affairs. President Wilson is man, like
the rest of us. He has no command
from on high. But It is notorious that
he has a very distinct command from
the earthly source of democracy.
at seems. however, that Mr.. Wilson,
from his high post in the White House,
has been unable as yet to understand
tho mandate democracy has given him.
1t is a magnificent spectacle that tho
American people are offered to-day
With a Presidential election coming
on, President Wilson sees it necessary
to take some action. Presidential pro
crastinatiOn had an advantage in that
It could wake up at any time it chose
the sleeping Lusitanls question.
"Anti-German candidates were al
ready in the field, and Wilson. being an
expert politician. chose to resume an
exchange Of notes with his corresponj
dent, Wilhelm. Hence we see a crisis. Il
only remains TO note that President VII

This is the mission of Colonel l.J-.,e.
Europe has suddenly seen dumb mis-
