new AIRPLANE
Plan ADVANCED
Representative Would Put
Construction Of Machines
Under Secretaries.

Representative Hubert. Of New
York. yesterday submitted to the Sem
ate Committee on Military Afflars,
which has under consideration the
Sheppard-Hulbert bill creating a De-
partment Of AeronAutics a substitute
for that measure, which 1t is believed
win go far toward overcoming opposi-
tion to II based on the unwillingness
to create a new Cabinet once.
In substance. the substitute calls
for the organization Of the Aircraft
Production Board. co-ordinating the
activities of the War and Navy De-
partments in connection Herewith. 1t
Is understood that the plan closely
follows the English system and that 1t
will have the support Of both Secre-
taries Baker and Daniels, something
of which the original measure was not
at all assured. Howard z. Conn, of
the Advisory Board Of the Council of
National Defense. and one of the
minute men first to call the attention
Of the government to the enormous
value Of the aeroplane as an instru-
ment of war. is said also to be highly
In favor Of the substitute.

Douglas Fairbanks to Enlist.

Denver, Colo, July H.-Douglas
Fairbanks. the movie star, will try to
enlist in the United States Aviation
Corps, 1t was reported today.
The Washington herald., 1917-07-28
Sheppard Satisfied.

Senator Sheppard, who introduced
the original bill in the Upper House,
Is satisfied to have the substitute Of
fered-
Il am looking only for results" said
Mr.. Hubert. II think we can get
those results quicker by meeting at
the start the objections which we
have been prepared to expect from
quarters which look with no favor
upon any move threatening their par
ticular authority.
"Just to show that mean no en-
croachment upon those quarters, my
substitute will provide that the board
20 out Of existence six months after
the war Is ended. just as the Coun-
ell Of National Defense will do.
1T ID my idea to have the Aircraft
Production Board composed Of not
more than eleven members. II would
comprise 1Genss Squier or whoever
might happen to be the chief signal
officer Of the army; Admiral Taylor.
or whoever might be the chief con-
structor of the navy; a member Of the
Council Of National Defense-and
assume the President would name
Howard Coffin as q man who knows
aeronautics-and eight civilians to be
chosen by the President for both
their executive and technical abili-
ties.
The Washington herald., 1917-07-28
Opposition to Bill.

Mr.. Hubert would not indicate the
direction from which he had been
warned opposition to the bill Great
ing a Department of Aeronautics
might be expected. A member of the
subcommittee of the Senate Commit
tee on Military Affairs who was pres
ent at all the hearings on the Aero
nautics Department was not so taci-
turn. The same question which Mr..
Hubert would not answer brought
forth the assertion that both the War
and Navy Departments were steadfast-
ly against any effort to form a new
department

ment of men of German, Austrian and
Hungarian blood to the forces we shall
have to maintain at home. The German
American should not be asked to drive
a bayonet into the breast of his blood
brother unless that brother is invading
the country, as he might be from Mexi-
CO, or unless he is striking at our peace
here within the confines of our own
country. But German-Americanls may
well be asked to defend the border and
our home ports, and they can be depend
ed upon to do that service Loyalty and
well.
Military efficiency, as well as consi-
derations of human feeling, dictates this
concession. German Americans could
not be expected to fight against Ger
many with the spirit they would show
against any other enemy or even
against Germany in war whose issues
appealed to them.
We have a duty also to civilian Ger
man Americans, a duty which is not
merely governmental but belongs to all
of us. If we are not unreasoning we
must realize that the German -Ameri-
cans who are loyal to this country are
passing through an experience of real
anguish. The common figure of speech
which calls Germany their mother and
America their wife is not exaggerated.
These, our fellow citizens, our neigh
bors and worthy coworkers in upbuild-
| ing of America, are torn between two
sincere and honorable devotions. They
are following the biblical saying, they
are leaving father and mother and
cleaving to the wife. But the necessity
of choice is a bitter one,
1t is part of good citizenship and OF
common human feeling to try and help
| the German Americans in this trial. to
avoid offending their susceptlbilitles,
now naturally exaggerated, to try to
make them feel that we do not doubt
/ their loyalty while recognizing their
sympathies.

(From Chicago "Tribune'.)

Except the most fanatical partisans
of the entente allies, no one expects
Americans of German blood and tradi-
tion to volunteer for active operations
IN Europe against the central armies.
We know from experience that German
Americans will fight devotedIy for their
adopted country, and il we We're threat
ened with invasion even by Germany
there would be no doubt the German
Americans would help to expel the IN
vaders.
But it is neither necessary nor prac-
tical to use German-Americans IN any
force our policy or the exigeney OF m TINS
war eompels us to send abroad. The
Tribune believes that for the sake OF
the national morale as well as of our
polite al advantage an American army,
when ready, should be sent 60 Europe
But whether that is a volunteer army
- we hope il will not be - or an army
ORGANIZED under universal service, pro-
vision should be made for the assign.

Both Sides in European War Urge Claims on
United States

Within twenty hours America received two notes
summarizingthe views of both Germany and the allies.
The allies note made these basic conditions of peace:
Restitution of provinces of territories wrested from
the allies, with just reparation.
Reorganization of Europe guaranteed by stable
regime and founded respect of natonaties and full
security and liberty of economic development"
Liberation of Italians Slavs, Rumanians Czech
Slovaks from foreign domination.
Enfranchsement of populations subject to the bloody
tyranny of Turkey expulsion of Turkey from Europe
Compliance with the Russian views as to Poland
In addition, the allies forcefuy reiterated their plac
ing of blame on Germany for the world war.
In the note which Germany addressed to all neutrals,
she thus summed up her position:
Germany did not start the war; she and her allies
took up arms for defense of their liberty and existence
and consider this, their aim of war; as obtained"
The allies aims in the are for conquest of Alsace
Lorraine and several Prussian Provinces humiliation of
Austro Hungary, partition of Turkey and mutation of
Bulgaria.
Germany protests against the allies dismissal of her
peace suggestions war maneuver and points out
against allied professions to rights of small states the
treatment accorded citizens of Ireland of the Boer
publics northern Africa, Greece and Russian alien
nations.
Germany also points out scandalous conflict with the
rules of the laws of nations in Englands starvation
blockade of Germany use Of coored troops in Europe
barbarous treatment of prisoners deportation of the
civil population from eastern Prussia, AsaceLorraine
Galjcia and Bukowina.
The note repudiates responsibility for Begiums fate
because Belgium has not always lived up to the duties
enoined by her neutrality and denies the truth of the
allied charges as to Belgium 1t concludes that the re-
sponsbty for continuance of the depends on the
allies and asserts Germanys confident determination to
wage on to victory.

Assimilation Of Groups protested

Continuing, it is stated that "the
allied governments believe they must
protest in the most friendly but in
the most specific manner against the
assimilation established in the Ameri-
can note between the two groups of
belligerents.
The note recites the belief of the
allies that they are "not fighting for
selfish interests, but above all to
SAFEGUARD the independence of the peo-
pies of rights and humanity" and
charges Germany and Austria with
"Wilful aggression to insure their
hegemony over EuEope and their eco,
nomic domination over the world"
In this connection a long list of
alleged German crimes against human
ity are recited.
Entente Powers Outline Terms
1t is stated that "'their (the allies J
objects in the war will not be made
known in detail with all the equitable
cOmpensations and indemnities for
damages suffered until the hour of
negotiations. But the civilized world
knows they imply in all necessity
and in the first instance the restora-
tion of Belgium, of Serbia and of Mon
tenegro and the indemnities which are
due them; the evacuation of the in
vaded territories of France, of Russia
and of Rumania with just reparation;
the restitution of provinces or terri
tories wrested in the past from the
allies by force or against the will of
their populations, the liberation of Ital-
ians of Slays of RoumanianS and
Teheo Slovaques from foreign domina-
tion, the enfranehisement of popula-
tions subject to the bloody tyranny of
the Turks, and the expulsion from
Europe of the Ottoman empire de-
cidedly."
Liberty of Europe is Demanded
Another demand is. "the reorganiza-
tion of Europe guaranteed by stable
regime and founded as much upon re-
spect of nationalities and full security
and liberty for economic development
which all nations, great or small, pos
sess as upon territorial conventions
and international agreements suitable
to guarantee territory and maritime
frontiers against unjustified attacks
A disposition to destroy the German
people is vigorously denied. In con-
elusion, it is stated that the allies are
determined, individually and collec-
lively, to act with all their power and
to cinsent to all sacrifices to bring to
a victorious close a conflict upon
which they are convinced not only
their own safety and prosperity de-
pends, but also the future of civihza'
ton itself. +"

exhausted, the boy says he fell to the
floor and pleaded for mercy.
Not until then did Thaw relent. He
made the boy, according to Gump IS
story, kneel on the floor and kiss
Thaw's toes, hands, cheeks, and lips,
forcing him to repeat after him 81 am
your slave for four years. You are
my master. 1 will obey your orders. "
At breakfast, Thaw, with the menae-
ing whips always at hand, forced the
lad to kneel by his side while he fed
him with his hands. After each mouth
full the boy was made to say, "thank
you, master"
DR.. Kuhn said that, medically speak
ing, Thaw was of the same type as
Jack the Ripper" of London, who
stabbed women, and the stranger of
Paris, who strangled women after lur-
ing them to isolated places.
"He found the same satisfaction in
beating young Gump as these men did in
killing their victims,' said DR.. Kuhn.
