URGES QUICK HELP
IN AIR FOR RUSSIA
Aero Club President Says
SQUADRON Should Go.
NEEDS ONLY AERIAL EYES
Would Send 10000 Big Battle
Planes With Crews.

NEW YORK, June 2T.-Alan r.
Hawley, president OF the Aero Club
OF America, will recommend to the
Government the building of 10000
battle planes and the training OF 5000
American aviators for the Russian
front Immediately, he announced to-
day
Russia is fighting blind" said Mr..
Hawley, land the greatest practical
services we can render that strug-
Cling democracy is eyes for her army
and artillery.
"She has multItudes OF men. She
has more guns and munitions than is
suspected. She is more ready to
fight than we know.
'If we can equip the Russians with
good aerial eyes at the same time we
overwhelm the Teutons on the west
ern front with our 10000 aviators and
100000 fighting planes the crushing
power of our blow will be augmented
by at least so per cent. Plans are
well advanced for the manufacture OF
the 100000 planes and the training
of the $4,000 men for the western
front. We can add 5000 men and 90
900 planes to the program without
much trouble because our machinery
will soon be standardized for i'm
mense production"
Mr.. Hawley's idea Is that we should
send one air squadron to the Russian
front as quickly as possible, ''for
moral effect"

AppIes Valuable as Food

Apples should be used in our diet as
often as possible. They are easily OBJ
tanned, reasonable in price, lend va
riety to the menu and are of value as
a food and as preventive of disease
Nothing in all our varied and fascinat-
ing range of fruits holds quite the
same quality and qualifications as the
apple. The more apples we add to
our dietary the clearer brain and
cleaner skin we are likely to have. A
new, ripe apple at its best is digested
in IS minutes.
