U. S. FLIERS IN FRANCE
Corps of Fighting Airmen Is Made Up
of American Volunteers.

Paris, April 24.-The first separate
American volunteer squadron of the
French flying corps has been consti-
tuted and is stationed at a point on the
front assigned it where it is fighting
as a separate unit under a French Of
ficer.
All the aviators are equipped with
the fastest type of machinery adapted
to pursuit, and which have proved eff
fective recently against the swiftest
German filters. The French press pays
tribute to the daring, skill and devo-
ton of the Americans.
France Is Grateful.
Paris, April 24.-"Some persons
have dared to say that France did not
appreciate the brotherly affection and
inexhaustible kindness of the Ameri-
cans" writes Prof. Victor Bascher of
the Sorbonne university in a long ar
ticIe in the Petit Parisien, reviewing
the work of various American war or
ganizations in France.
ut is a monstrouS calumny," he
announced. 1.-The truth is that Frances
gratitude equals Americas charity,
that she will never forget the sacred
debt she contracted toward her sister
republic; that the links binding the
United States of America to France,
always close are strengthened by our
gratitude and that henceforth more
widely than ever our schools and our
hearts will be opened to American cit
