ALLIES TO MAKE
MORE { AIR RAIDS
THIS PHASE OF ATTACK WILL BE
EMPLOYED MORE FREQUENTLY
UNITED STATES STATES NOW
BUILDING BIGGER PLANES.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct 24.-There
is reason for believing that the Allies
have finally determined to engage
extensively in air raids. While they
will be confined largely to attacks
upon military establishments rail-
roads, bridges and munition plants,
the persistence of the Germans II
bombing Lonond and other Allied
cities is declared to call for sharp
reprisals.
That fighting airplanes will grow
lar.er and larger, so as to become
vertable dreadnaughts of the air, is
the prediction of a government ex-
pert in close touch with the develop
ment of airplane construction both in
this country mad abroad His predic-
tion was based in part on the press
report from London telling of the con-
struction by Germany of metal-en
closed battleplanes which Germany
is building to meet the American avia-
tors.
II have been convinced that the
United States should devote much CT
it's genius and constructive ability to
the development of a powerful fight
ing airplane," said he to press repro
sentative here. Germany may be
building a sort of aerial armor-clad,
but the Kaiser will have no monopoly
ia this respect.
All of the Allied nations now are
building much heavier battle planes.
This tendency will increase. At all
times there must be light and ex-
ceptionally fast scout machines, just
as we must have scout cruisers
Large anl speedy airplanes CORES
ponding to modern battle cruisers
also may be a development, but the
slower and more stable machine with
Q real punch.' the airplane that can
give and take a maximum of pun
ishment and still remain aloft, must be
the foundation of the aerial fighting
forces of the future"

Dr. Michaelis' tenure of Office has

ATLANTA, Ga. Oct 24.-Germany's
efforts to keep American ships off the
high seas through her ruthless sub
marine warfare was direct blow
aimed at the prosperity of American
farms and of American business, Sec
retary McAdoo declared in his Liberty
Day address here today.
After reminding his hearers that
America went to war in 1912 to vim
dicate her right to the freedom of the
seas and had steadfastly maintained
it since then, he continued:
why is that right so essential to
Americas life and security? 1t is be-
cause we have always produced more
than we can consume at home. And
the very prosperity of our people, their
very life in fact, depends upon their
ability at all ties to sell that surplus
i'll the open markets of the world"
The German Emperor had been led
by disloyal people in this country to
believe that America never would
fight" the secretary of the treasury
continued, "and that any transgres-
sion of our ria hts would be met simply
by protests"
Had America submitted and kept
slips off the seas, discord and dis
conteat among American people would
have followed, Mr. McAdoo said, and
the German emperor by one stroke
of his pen would have accomplished
more destruction upon American
farms, in American factories and m
American business houses ana ~
American interests all over the land
than he could accomplish with all the
armies and navies of the German en-
pire'
After telling what stoppage of Amer
ican sea commerce would have meant
in loss to the cotton growers of the
south, and of Germans efforts to il
volve the United States with. Japan
and Mexico through the Zimmerman
intrigue, the secretary turned to ruth
less submarine warfare, and recitei
the stories Of helpless men and wo-
men being drowned at sea.
Some man has said, or is alleged
to have said that America had no
justification for this war with Ger.
many" the secretary declared If
there be an American, or any man in
this land whether he is an American
or not, who knowing this record, says
that we did not have justification for
war with Germany, then yellow blood
flows in his veins-he hasn't any red
blood in him"
Mr. McAdoo denounced those in
dividuals who would make peace with
the kaiser's government and the alleg
ed peace societies in this country. The
latter are merely German wolves
masquerading in hides of American
traitors" he declared, while some OF
the former are deluded and simple
people and "some are in the pay OF
the kaiser"

weekly review of war operat ons issue l
today discIoses the belief of the war
department that potency of material
and men will enable the British and
French commanders to triumph over
natural obstacles and continue forcing
lie enemy backward without waiting
for spring.
The review touches for the first
time upon the American expedftionary
forces in France, declaring the men
after three months intensive trainin3
are in efficient fighting trim and splen-
did physical condition.
On dwelling upon the importance or
the battle of Flanders and its. effect
upon the morale of the Germans, the.
war secretary declares it is apparent
that the German high command plan
ned the recent expedition against the
Russians in the Riga sector in order
to bolster up morale and meet i'm
pending internal difficulties. By eX-
tending her lines in the east. he adds,
Grmany has merely added to the
length Of her lines of communications
and increases confidence in the final
allied victory.
The review says:
"An interesting summary of troop
in the United States shows
that since the present mobilization be-
gan 914,195 persons have been trans
ported by the railroads for the war .te.
partment, of whom 256,S15 were tran
ported in standard or tourist slcepers.

Mr.. Griffiths secured a permit to take
rs second feet of water from Mason
