great French aviator occurred some
four or five miles inside the German

the British lines Captain Guynemer
was accompanied by Lieut.. Bozon Yer
duraz, who says they were flying at a
height of 5000 feet when Guynemer
sighted a nenemy two-seater which he
attacked Immediately. Almost at the
same moment Nerduraz saw four Ger
man monoplaneS pproaching at full
speed. He turned toward them in
stantly so as to draw them off. They
circled round and round for a while
and then disappeared. Verduraz then
returned to the place where he had
left Guynemer engaged with German

This is all that is absolutely known
of Guynemer's fate, and exhaustive in

AIR Arm READY
L. =. Prepared To Put Aero
planes Into Service.
This Done, the Allies Should
Hold Supremacy.

Washington, Sept. 27.-America is
ready to begin throwing her weight
against Germany in the battle for
supremacy of the air. This infoTma-
ton from authentic sources comts al
a moment when the air fleets Of the
beIligerents are locked in terrific
battle for mastery all along the west
ern front. when Americas aid may
mean the turning OF the scales against
Germany.
Within the last few weeks it has
become evident to observers here that
Germany has built up a strong ae rial
reserve and that her resources in that
direction are tremendous. France and
England are stretching their proluc
ton but the race has been on even
terms. Now America is ready to step
in with the beginning of her air
armada of 5000 planes.
Information obtained today is that
the production and assembling of lib
erty motors has reached an encOur-
aging point and that airplanes, ready
for battle down to the machine guns,
are being modified at selected points.
And men to operate them are ready.
The intensive courses in theoretical
and practical aeronautics through
which the signal corps is drilling
thousands OF men to carry the eta RS
and stripes over the ''Hindenburg
line" already has produced sufficient
quota of graduate aviators to man
the machines now being made ready.
Thousands of others are rapidly
learning the rudiments of the "prac-
teal" end of the game" at the treat
army ground schools at Langley field
and in the south.
Today the aircraft production
board. the organization which within
less than two months had organized
the industries of the nation into a
vast airplane producing mill, called
special meeting with all interests con-
cerned in airplane manufacture to
take up the detailed work on the pro
gram. This is the Standardization Of
airplane fittings.

TO NONUNlON LABOR
Portland ShipbuiIdcrs Announce They
VIII Run Open Yards.

Portland. ore. sept. 27.-Shipbuild-
ers controlling Columbia and Will
lamette river yards today announced
that their plants will be reopened
with non-union labor. AS an answer
to this move by the employers ex-
ecutive officers of. the machinists'
union called out union men at four
iron works and foundrics which have
been furnishing work to the ship yards
where strikes are on. About two hum
bred men were affected in the order.
Fifteen pickets were arrested under
Portland's. ant-picketing ordinance
Wednesday.
Officials of two of the iron works
affected declared that the strike was
called when they refused to agree not
to do government work. They charged
that representatives of the Metal
Trades council asked that contracts be
signed to that effect.
