SWISS ARE ENRACED BY
VIOLATION OF NEUTRALITY
Press Insists That Something
Besides Excuses Be De-

BERLIN, Via Paris, April 27.-(De-
layed)-The flight of a German aero
plane over Swiss territory in the region
of Porentruy yesterday morning, oc-
curing so soon after a previous similar
flight over the same territory, has prov
oked the strongest Indignation in Swift
erland.
This is reflected in all sections of the
press The semi-official Bund says the
time has come to demand from Ger
many more than expressions of regret
or excuses. The moderate Journal DE
Geneve points out that this is the thir-
teenth incident of the kind, that the
German minister gave the most solemn
assurances last August that there would
be no further violation and added that
German aviators were ordered to keep
three milesfrom the Swiss frontier yet
the raids have been even more frequent
since then than before. The newspa-
pers refer to the flight over Switzerland
as an insulting violation of federal au-
thority.

recruits were farmers
The third largest class wele the
clerks and bookkeepers." 1906 of them:
then followed drivers and stablemen,
who contributed 1.272; "machinists,'
with LOIS.
These five classes were the only sub
divisions that went over the thousand
mark, but all the classes which follow
belong TO the vast army of workers.
Following i'm order come carpenters.
fremen, cooks. electricians. miners.
painters, chauffeurs. plumbers. walters,
tailors, musicians, printers. barkeepers.
ers, sailors. railroad hands, telegraph
ers.
The highly skilled trades and the prof
fessions contribute few recruits. Thus,
out of the nearly $4,000 first enlist
ment" men I'm 1914, only three litho
graphers, 4 wireless operators, doc,
