NEED BILLION DOLLARS.

WASHINGTON. June 21.-About
$1,000. 900, 600 Is needed TO put the
aerial arm Of the United States army
upon a war footing, according TO a
statement made 20 a subcommittee
OF the house military affairs commit
tee today by Alan r. Hawley, presi-
dent of the Aero club Of America.
TO make an aerOnautcal cOntri-
button substantial enough 10 enable
our allies TO strike a decisive blow
continued Mr.. Hawley, there will
probably be needed 100000 aero
planes and between 10000 and 90
600 aviators, the aeroplanes 10 be
manufactured and the aviators 10 be
trained in America. This should, OF
course. be done in the shortest time
possible.
Great Britain, according 20 au-
thoritative reports. is producing
4 1000 aeropianes per month and
France as many. but they are used
as fast as they are manufactured.
There are even more reasons for
creating a department of aeronautics
IN the United States than there were
for creating the British and French
ministries. because England and
France had large military and naval
administration forces which IL SEEM
ed advisable to utilize. They feared
that 10 attempt TO operate the al
ready established air service from
the army and navy departments
might lead 10 confusion. Efficiency
and economy dictate that We learn
the lesson and start in by creating
a separate department of aeronau-
nautics.
The United states war and navy
departments are already over
whelmed with work and have
neither the office facilities nor the
personnel required for the admin
istration OF an adequate air service. ="
Henry woodhouse OF the board
Of governors OF the Aero club, sup
ported the position taken by Pres't
Hawley.

Take Down Your
Tattefed Flags

(By Pauline Worth Hanlin, Of The
Nigilantes.)
All over this country there are
now flying faded, tattcred flags.
If We do not respect The Flag our
selves, whom shall We expect to re-
spect ii?
The Stars and Strips are our en-
blem. Shall it appear that we con-
slider dirt and tatters symbolic of our
country? Never! Our Flag should
be as white as the SHOWS, as blue as
the skies, as red as our blood and as
whole as our hearts. Let ii be truly
symbolic and when Il flag becomes
bedraggled take it down. If you
cannot put UP another be happy in
the consciousness that you honor il
far more by not flying it at all than
by flying it when it is faded. ragged
and dirty.
