DEFECTIVE AIRCRAFT
WARNING FOR AMERICA
(By William Philip simms.)


UNITED Press Staff Correspondent
WITH THE BRITISH ARMIES IN
THE FIELD, July 10.-(By Mail.)-
There is lesson to the United States
not to make haste to precipitately, in
recent air battles here. The struc-
tural defects of German aircraft have
been strongly illustrated Of late. They
were of machines hurriedly built as a
result of Germany's speeding up Of
leroplane construction. Now that
America is going to hustle up and
Guild great fleets of such craft she
will do well to note some of the re-
suits of too much speed and not
,nough precaution.
In tne week recently seven Ger
r;n planes were seen literally to
break up in the air, the pilots nGd
y sewers Icing hurled to the earth
,eiow. These accidents were unmis-
sakably the result of faulty con-
itruction. Two other Prussian planes
suddenly burst into flames in the
presence of British fighters-for no
accountable reason.
Moreover, the new German planes
are exceedingly vulnerable probably
lue to faulty material and rush work.
One British lieutenant the other day
'ired 40 rounds at 25 yards range
md broke the Germans wings clear
,ff. Another British fighter turn
ID his machine gun fire at the tail
If one of 10 Prussian machines,
rom distance of 60 yards. The
5oche's tail slid clear off and the
machine crashed to the earth.
On the same day as this last Incl
lent, five British flyers attacked
leet of Albatross scouts among the
LIQUIDS. The fighters got separated
lhortly in the fleecy clouds and then
was every man for himself. One
British captain, after driving off
.hree Germans, hid in cloud and
waited the fourth, whom he saw ap-
>roaching. At the correct moment
he Britisher dived out, got below
lis enemy and fired 5S shots. He
,roke the German plane completely

On the following day British air

lroke one in several pieces with a
ew shots, and then saw two otfei
If his enemies burst into flames. One
oil, like a comet, the second burned
slowly. On this second one, the ri
OF unable to bear the agony of the
ire, leaped out. The observer left
without pilot, crawled out along the
fuselage, but fell off as the plane
cared and plunged.
Once again, six British flyers at
lacked IL enemy planes. One of the
German machines burst into flames,
one was crumpled by gunfire, and an
lther just simply collapsed after IS
rounds of fire.
The moral is that America will
leed the best machines and their best
men against the Germans. Even
then it would be foolhardy to expect
walkover.
Right now the German high COM
mand is grouping his flyers, aware
of the British aerial supremacy
Just as year ago he grouped artil-
lery into travelling circuses. The
idea is that since the Germans are
unable to maintain equality of the
lir everywhere along the front, they
can concentrate a flying circus at
some weak spot, or at some place in
the line which is threatened

study of the improvement or aggra.
vation of symptoms at different times
of day and under different diets and
temperatures. This study demands
the conditions found in just such
hospital, and nowhere else to be had
without great expenses" 1t is also
true that the family doctor does the
best that he knows how, and con-
sidering the difficulties under which
he works, makes a wonderfully good
estimate of the nature of the patients
disease and the treatment to be ad-
ministered."
But as an accurate diagnosis sim
ply cannot be made in a considerable
number of cases without the co-ope-
ration of number of men, each ex-
pert in his own field, what we ask the
family doctor to be is an 'all-round'
specialist. This he attempts, but one
cannot truthfully say that he sue
ceeds, for the attempt is obviously
an impossible one. Medicine is today
far too large and complicated a field
for any one man, no matter how wise
and experienced, to cover"
We have not the space to speak in
dividually of the professional men
composing the faculty of this old,
world famed institution, but will say
that among them are MANY whose
long connection with the Invalids'
Hotel and Surgical Institute has rem
dered them experts in their several
specialties.
Advantages of Specialties.
BY thorough organization and sub
dividing the practice of medicine and
surgery in this institution, every in
aid is treated by a specialst-one
who devotes his undivided attention
to the particular class of diseases to
which the case belongs. The advan-
tage of this arrangement is obvious.

OF wheat from the time II leaves the
producer until 1t reaches the baker
will go into effect September 1. To
eliminate speculation, all elevators
and mills of more than 100 barrels
daily capacity will be required to
take out government license.
Hope for Cooperation.
The hope Of the food administra-
ton is that the industries will CO.
operate readily with the government
and that many Of the drastic powers
given to the President In the food
control bill will not have to be in
voked.
In fixing price to be paid pro-
ducers for wheat the food administra-
ton. 1t was said today. will seek to
give the farmer fair price and ut
the same time name figure which
will permit the public to receive
bread at a price much below that
now prevailing. Licenses will be
granted to flour mills only on con-
dition that they charge fair and
reasonable price for their product.
Bakeries to BE Under Control.
AS soon as the wheat and flour In
dustries have been put under regu-
lation, the food administration plans
to extend Its control to bakeries, hop
ing to reduce the price now paid for
bread. There Is no present plan to
put cereals other than wheat under
immediate control, although sugar
may be under government supervis-
ion.
The price OF the 1917 crop Of
wheat to the farmer will be fixed by
committee, of which President Gar
field of Williams college will be the
chairman. The names of the other
members have not been made public.
Congress, in passing the food bills,
set a price of 50 on the 1918 crop.
The announced purpose of the food
administration is to correct abuses in
food administration with as little dis
location to both as possible.

DAIRY MEN WHO
'GOUGE' BABIES
GET WARNING

Washington. Aug. 16.-The food
administration has Just begun to
fight. Undeterred by the renewal Of
attacks by Senator Reed, 1t was
learned today that Herbert c. Hoover
will proceed along the following
lines:
Drastic measures OF control will
next be applied to dairy products and
to sugar.
Dairymen are warned that II their
present business practices are cal
culated to gouge the babies Of the
United States and the allies, these
practices must be discontinued.
Sugar will be put on the list of
things controlled by the exports
council as soon as the food admins
tration gets into full swing and the
orgy of unexplainable high prices In
that commodity will be made to cease.
A board of control for wheat in
dependent of the price fixing board
headed by President Garfield. OF
williams college, will soon be named
and similar boards will be organized
for each commodity over which the
food administration from time to
time takes control.
! Armed with the special knowledge
Of these boards and the information
which the agents of the administra'
ton have been quietly gathering for
months, hoarders Of wheat for high
prices will be compelled to disgorgt
or face proceedings in the United
States courts.

Senator Reed evident about the OF

1917 Outlook.

BY the unusually sever winter of
1916-1917, the production of the
mines of Utah was reduced 80 that
the states output of all metals in
the first six months of 1917 will not
exceed that for the corresponding
half Of 1916, according to v. c.
Heikes of the U. S. geological sur
vey, department Of interior. Many
of the mining camps were at times
isolated by snowslides, which blocked
the transportation of ore from Park
City, Tintic, and the Cottonwood dis
tricts. Ore received at the shelters
from the mines outside of Utah ac-
cumulated in the railroad yard and
unloading was delayed on account Of
freezing in the cars. Then pro-
ionged shortage Of coal and coke
caused smelters and mines alike to
be operated at reduced capacity. AS
a climax, a strike for an increase in
wages closed, for a short time, one
of the smelling plants. Extensive
Improvements and engagements Of
smelters and milling plants in the
state indicates a greater production
In the second half. which may offset
any decrease during the first six
months.
In 1916 the copper output, report
ed by operators in Utah, amounted
to 240,275,222 pounds. over three
fourths of which came from the Utah
Copper property at Bingham. The
company's 4000-ton teaching plant
for treating the oxidized ores that
cap the sulphides is nearing compile
ton, and when the units recently
added to the Magma and Arthur
mills are in operation the plant
should be treating nearly $4,000 tons
of copper ore daily. At present about
$4,000 tons of ore are treated. In
April this company produced IT,
231.512 pounds Of copper, and the
production for the month Of May is
expected to be more than 100000
pounds. A higher recovery Of metal
not only copper. but lead and zinc
is being made at these mills, as well
as at other mills in the state, by the
use of flotation concentration.

MODESTY AND MANNERS.

The letter of Sad sounds so strange
to the ears as you say over, when I
was at school | was taught that mod
esty is the keynote of good manners, j"
that 1t seems as if some daguerreotype

Today modesty and manners don't
need to be taught; young people are so
bright and so instinctively well bred
that they just have them and to spare.
So can you blame young people for
being a bit egotistical with old fogies
who aren't well educated enough to see
and appreciate the beauty, modesty
and gracility of their conversational
powers and for not understanding the
delicate manners of kindly reply" in
their notes when they write and ask a
