INDIFFERENCE OF ACCUSED.
After Victor Rush was arrested and
while on the way to Crossvile he man
| ifested no sorrow over the death of his
brother and wife. but joked talked and
sang short snatches of songs. He de-
MES any knowledge of the crime.
The case ls still in progress and may
not be complet I'd before Friday OF this
week as the attorneys will very likely
argue the case to considerable eRgth.
HOW HE LOOKS.
Ever since the accused man has been
in jail here he has manifested unusual
indifference over the case further than
to say he would he out and free as soon
as il could be tried. AS he sits in
court there Is an air of bravado and
bold Indifference in his actions that
does not tend to streng hen the idea of
his being innocent. He IS a young
man of about 22 years, dark complect-
cd. black, heavy hair, round visaged,
and will weigh around $50 pounds.
Under his calm demeanor there seems
to be something that tends to lead one
to feel that he IS strung up to rather
high pitch and that he is not finding 1t
an easy task to act calmly. lie does
not look like man who would commit
such a crime, but when one looks
squarely into his eyes there IS an un-
pleasant something comes over you
that leads you to feel that there is
cold and unsyDlpathetic soul behind
them that you would not wish to have
hold your dest ny:

WANTS BRITAIN TO
CONTROL .T!! H!E AIR
New Member Of Parliament
Has Ideas About Aerial
Warfare.

LONDON, March 17.-(corresponu-
ence Of The Associated Press)-one OF
the most spectacular election cam
paigns that England has ever wit
messed was made by Pemberton.Bill-
ing. an aviator, who was the success
full candidate for member of the House
Of Commons for East Herts. a thriving
English community. Mi. Billing was
dissatisfied with the g~overnment's- pol
icy. of attempting to fight off the Yep
'pelins and ran as the "airman cand1-
date" SO that he could get into Parh-
ament and as he himself said PRO
coed to make England wake up"
Billings did his e~lectioneertng dress
ed as an aviator. He made q personal
tour OF the constituency and proceed
ed TO "buttonhole" the voters in much
the same style that was popular with
the old:time politicians in the United
States. Billings also used motor cars
and motorcycles to reach the voters.
He always carried a miniature Heppe-
lin around with him.
Until a few months ago Mr.. Billings
was a squadron commander In the
British Royal Naval Air Service. He
took a large part in planning a raid
against the Zeppelin headquarters at
Lake Constance and afterwards filled
a post in the anti-aircraft service In
England. Then he became dtssatts-
fled with the governments aircraft
policy and, because he could not have
his way In the manner he thought the
government ought to treat the raiding
Zeppe1ins, he quit the service.
Billings claims the British air serv-
ice is Inadequate and wants it put
on a war basis. His scheme includes
the appointment OF an Air Minister
and the building Of 5000 aeroplanes
within six months. Great Britain
should control the air, 1.-THE new member
argues.
Britain against Zeppelins," Mr.. Bill
fngs said in his numerous speeches,
1.tthere should be $50 machines. with
la speed OF eighty miles an hour, each
capable Of destroying an airship at a
range of rot less than a mile. fifty to
be continually ready to fly any mo-
ment. In addition each squadron Of
ten such aeroplanes should have five
patrol machines, equal to 115 miles an
hour, to fight the German .aeroplanes.
They should be armed with machine
guns firing explosive bullets. Each
machine should have a searchlight
with a range of at least q! mile"
Billings also has verysdeanite ideas
about how$to control the air defence
He would have an air director who
would have on, the wall of his room
IN the War Office a map Of England,
fifteen feet square, painted on glass
and. divided into 100 squares. Each
square would be in electrical contact
with the local headquarters of the
corresponding square OF country.
There would be another map, similar
ly squared, on a table. and in the, cen;
ter of each square would be a tele-
graphic key. BY touching any one of
the telegraphic keys an operator would.
communicate instantly with the local
commander OF the square in the coun-
try. The local commander would in
stantly signal the receipt Of the mes
sage by pressing a button which would
illuminate his particular square in the
glass wall map in front Of the direc.
tors eyes.
