FRENCH AVIATOR
HAS GOOD RECORD
Has Been Officially Credited With De-
StrOying Tenth German Machine
Sent Down Eight More.

Paris correspondence of The As
sociated Press. Second Lieutenant
Jean Navarro of the French Flying
corps. has just been officially credited
with destroying his tenth German ma
chine Unofficially, he has brought
down IS; that is to say that, in add
ton TO the 10 machines, destruction OF
which has been verified by his super
Tor officers, he is known to have sent
eight more to earth behind the Ger
man lines under circumstances that
justify the suppositiOn that they were
destroyed.
Navarro is the "enfant terrible" or
pest of the French Flying corps, with
eccentricities that keep his superior
officers busy. He had seen most of the
world at IS, and had just disembarked
from Japan and taken few lessons in
aviation when the war broke out. Too
young to be called to the cOlOrS Tegu-
larIy he enlisted and was summoned
to appear for medical examination; in
stead of responding he took the train
for Saint-Cyr, and told the officers
there that he had been ordered to re
port to join the engineers. Together
with a comrade that had received a
pilots license, he applied to an officer
Of the flying corps at Tours to be in
corporated in that service. The cap
tain examined the papers Of the real
aviator and passed him; then asked
Navarro: What do you want ?" Same
as he" replied Navarro, and without
further Formally Navarro found him
self on an 80-horsepower biplane at
the front, regulating the fire OF the ar
tiIlery in November, 1914. 1t was
service that was little suited to his
dispositions he called it driving
taxi-autO" and showed his discomfort
by some fantastic eVOlutiOns on re
turning from an observation tour, that
resulted in his being sent to the rear.
He presented himself at the aviation
camp where men were being trained
to fly the swift battle-planes and was
given opportunity to try one OF them.
His natural qualities as an acrobat Of
the air got him Immediately one Of
these new machines.
He made his debut in the chase in
March, 1915, and in his first eXpedi-
ton attacked one of the German ma
chimes that was the most redOubtable
at that time, by his skill as pilot
alone dominating his adversary. He
flew over him. lOOped the loop under
him. sailed all around him risking a
dozen times to collide with him, yet
never giving the German observer d
chance to fire. The German machine
finally went to earth a few yards from
the French lines without having been
hit or damaged in any way; the Ger
man pilot lost his head in the pres
ence of the fantastic evOlutiOns OF his
adversary and could only inquire after
being made prisoner: What in the
world is that phenomenon that fell up
on me?" Since that time Navarro has

NOLAN BILL GIVEN
ANOTHER SETBACK
Members of House Leaving City and
Quorum is Practically
Impossible.

Washington, July 21-Prospects for
final action at this session on the Mol
an bill to pay all government employees
! a minimum wage of So a day have be-
come gloomy with the development
that members of the house are rapidly
/ leaving Washington, and it probably
will be impossible to summon a quor-
UNI at any time in the near future.
1t is still the plan Of Congressman
Nolan to move to suspend the rules
and pass the bill but the lack of d
quorum in the house would put the
governments clerks bill at the mercy
of any member who wished to raise
the point of order that no quorum was
present.
The Nolan bill was scheduled for
consideration last Monday, but the
house adjourned within a few minutes
of the meeting hour because of the
death of Congressman Moss of West
Virginia.
Each day marks the departure of
more members from Washington, and
it is estimated today that a quorum
is not in the city. This means that all
legislation must be done by unanimous
consent for two weeks or more.
Representative Tavenner of Illinois,
who is one of Congressman Nolan's
support for the SO a day bill, said
that he was as much interested in this
Legislation as in any bill pending be
fore congress, and would not leave
Washington as long as there was any
chance to get it passed. Il would be
willing not to go home at all if it
would mean the passage of the bill,
he said. That's how strong l am for
it,
When the conference reports on the
annual appropriation and national de
Tense bills come into the house a quor-
UNI will be assembled, but it will then
be so late in the session that the Mol
an bill will have practically no chance
OF consideration.
Failure to reach the bill at this SEES
sion does not kill the Nolan measure.
1t remains on the calendar, and is sub
ject to call at the December session.
Business on the house calendar will
be considered next week. 1t is hoped
by Mr.. Nolan that no one will raise a
point of no quorum against the S3-a-
day bill but if this is made, the oppo-
sitiOn will have the whip hand.

could be dragged into it. Several of
the Italian regiments and those of the
Austrians as we'll knocked off their
daily business for time TO watch the
duel. The Austrians had for some
days been attempting to plant can
non in a cavern, the mouth of which
was plainly visible from the Italian
lines. but the Italian battery from its
cavern on the opposite side OF the
IsonZo kept up such a hot fire day
and night that the Austrians had not
yet succeeded in their attempt. On
this particular morning they had kept
up a steady fire from several heavy
guns on the Italian battery and, under
cover OF this fire, had almost dragged
their piece, apparently one of l49-
millimeter calibre, inside the cavern's
mouth, line of trenches having been
thrown up TO the mouth of the cavern
to protect the soldiers dragging IT,

flown successfully in all the different
machines in the French aviation ser
vice, mastering them all with equal
ease and skill and never failing to
charge an enemy whenever he found
him. His theory of the areial combat
is TO get at his man, drive right at him
regardless of the enemy's fire, pay
ing attention only to his own.
Up to date. Navarro has waged near
ly fifty air battles.
A great many anecdotes are told of
Navarro, some of them perhaps some
what stretched. few of them anthem
tic. One of the latter related to his
fourth combat, which barely escaped
getting him 80 days Of prison. He had
then already acquired the habit, which
he still follows, of getting out before
daylight and finishing his sleep in his
machine, so as to be ready to take the
air instantly when an adversary's ma
chine is signaled On this occasion his
aid ran up crying: There is Ger
man coming up there"
Navarro darted into the air above
the river Marine, and made straight for
a big German tWO-seated biplane. He
fired a dozen bullets at the pilot who,
in trying to shield himself, steered his
machine abruptly to one side. Then
Navarro placed nine bullets in the
motor and the machine plunged to-
ward the earth but landed without &C

The prisoners, sent to the rear, re-

eccentric ayiator's amusing eXplana-

better of the generals anger and the
sentence was suspended.

story attacking the constitutionality
of the proposed franchise amendment
