New York, June 15-Emma Gold
man, editor of Mother Earth, and
Alexander Berkman, editor of The
Blast, known throughout the United
States as anarchists, were locked up
in the Tombs tonight on complaint

conspiracy to induce men Of military
age not to register under the selective
draft law.
The arrests were made by Thomas
d. Mccarthy, United States marshal,
in raid on the headquarters of the
No-Conscription League. The Offices
of the two publications are located in

Is and each day thereafter the de-

ticle in The Blast signed by Berk-
man and another in Mother Earth
signed by Miss Goldman would figure
prominently in the prosecution.

WILSON TO ASK
CONGRESS FOR
BIG AIR FLEET
Drive for $500, 100000 Bud
get to be Started Soon
BAKER GIVES WARING
War Secretary Says Few Thosuand
Aviators May Mean Country's
Salvation.

Washington, June 17.-President
Wilson's approval will be given to es
Inmates to go to congress this week
| calling for an immediate appropria-
| ton of 5000 100000 to perfect the
American air craft program projected
by the Council of National Defense.
The Presidents spokesman in both
houses of congress will lead terrifice
drive for action at once. The enor-
nous sum will be for continuing
program.
Secretary of War Baker in a state
ment tonight declared the war depart
ment is behind the air craft plans
with every ounce of energy and enthu
siasm at its command" He. said he
was convinced American airmen and
airplanes can turn the tide against
Germany. and that the nations ability
to provide innumerable men and ma
chimes afforded the supreme oppor-
tunity for immediate service on the
fighting line.
Leaders in congress who formerly
have gasped at suggestions for a gi-
gantic American air force. have prom
ised President Wilson their unstinted
support in the proposal,
I'VE can train thousands of ayia-
tors and build thousands of machines
without interfering in the slightest
with the plans for building up our
armies and for supplying the Allies
with food and munitions" said Secre-
tary Baker in his statement. ITO
train and equip our armies and send
them abroad will take time and in the
meanwhile we can be devoting to this
most important service vast quanti
ties of productive machinery and
skilled labor. Every consideration
points to the effectiveness of highly
developed air service. 1t lives up to
all of Americas traditions of doing
things on a splendid scale; it will put
us on our mettle from the point of
view of both of mechanical ingenuity
and individual daring and initiative.
There are about 100000 men on
the western front today The addi-
tion of a new infantry units while of
great moral value, means little in
forcing decision. A few thousand
trained aviators, however, with the
machines for their use, may spell the
whole difference between victory and
defeat The supremacy of the air
in modern warfare is essential to a
army. America must
make sure the Allies, and not Ger
many, get the domination of the ait
and that within the year.
will talxo No mona cbiDutpo /
space to send a thousand air pilots |
abroad than a thousand infantrymen;
no more space to send airplanes and
motors than to send artillery. 1t is |
now certain that If we make the ef- |
fort we can send enough of both men
and machines perhaps to turn the |
scale. American air men and aero |
planes provide our supreme opportuni-
ty for immediate service on the fight
ing line

kURN HATTIN HOMES
War Has Put Additional Burden Upon
Institution

Institution
"Our loacl charities must not suffer"
is the. heading of an article sent from
| Washington to the press Of the coun-
| try, in part as follows:-
Keep up local charities is the
| message sent by the women's commit
| tee of the council of national defense
| to people of the country. Our poor
| and helpless must not suffer because
of the war; it says. Charities are
largely supported today by the contri-
buttons from surplus incomes and
with the burdens of war, income tax
es and the like our charities are like
ly to be curtailed. But the people of
the country who stay at home must
step in and see that the dependents
and helpless of their communities do
not suffer. On our home people will
deyolve the responsibility of seeing
that the aged. the feeble and the help
less are taken care of"
The New England Kurn Hattin
Homes at Westminster and Saxton's
River are an efficient and an essential
charity in Vermont.
We might consider their work as
local to quite an extent for Benning-
ton has for several years had the
largest number of boys in the homes
of any town in the state There are
107 boys in ''Kurn Hattin" at present
of whom are from Bennington. These
boys are John and Horace Winslow,
Edward Shaw and Harold Valley, each
one being a fellow OF excellent posi-
bility. They are measuring up to these
possibilities under the efficient care
and training they are receiving.
Bennington people are interested in
this charity and have been generous
in their support Of it. The Kurn Hat
tin management Is cognizant of this
fact and most appreciative of it.
In these days of strenuous appeals
for war relief funds, we are wonder
ing if We wouldn't do well to heed the
admonition of the Women's Commit
tee of the Council of National De-
fense" to people of the country as
quoted above? We must all do our
part in helping our loved country to
fulfill her duty, but in doing this, is it
right for us to take our support from
home charities? This is what we are
doing every day and If we continue,
our poor at home are going to suffer.
Because of this very fact, Kurn Hat
tin faces deficit of $500 which has
accrued these first six months of 1917
by her regular contributors having
taken their usual gift to her and
placed it with some war relief fund.
Miss f. Eliza Sessions, financial rep
resentative of Kurn Hattin Is in town
this week on her annual mission of
collecting funds for the homes. AS
she calls upon our citizens, may she
not only find them ready with their
usual gift, but as far as possible, will
they increase that gift so that we may
do our part in helping to meet the de-
felt as well as the increased current
expense of the homes caused by the
high cost of living?
Miss Sessions is Mrs. Lucy j. B.
Burt's guest. Address 203 IL Union
