plot to align Mexico and Japan with
Germany against the United States.
The attack was by the newspaper
Osaka Mai-NichL Revelations of the
plot, It declared, illustrated the
weakness of American diplomacy

on the part of America"
The press and public generally

forbear admiring the ingenuity" OF

giving aid to the Central Powers. The attitude of the Entente nation toward Russia war forecast in an of ficial communication from the Italia Government. which was received 1 Washington. The communique, sen from Rome June 13. says:
 In Italian political circles 1t is felt that the attitude of the AL lies toward Russia warrants them in questioning the Russian gov- ernhent concerning intentions of Russia.
 The message of President Will son has so thoroughly cleared the situation 1t is impossible hon. estly to connect the alleged democratic views of the Russian government with pacifist ad- vances of the Central Powers.
 The consent on the part of England in the name of all the Allies. to revise the conditions of the alliance excludes every pre- text whatsoever of the Russian extremists of evading the duty to light against Germany and Austria.
 Tn view of these declarations of the Allies. 1t is felt that the Russian government cannot fur ther delay its decision in order to render the pro-German ten- dencies of part of the Russian population vain.
 Russia must free herself from the dangerous position she Is in now, especially for the sake of Russian freedom.

AMERICAN WOUNDED
 TO FEEL AT HOME
American Doctors and American
 Nurses in London Hospitals

London, May 15.-There are two hospitals in England where the sick and wounded from the American army will feel as much at home as in their native land. Not only will American doctors and nurses nin- ister to them, but American-born wo- men will form the great majority of their visitors. The institutions are the American Women's hospitals at Lancaster Gate, London. and the one at Paignton. The first now ministers to British officers and the second to the 'Tommies." Both were equipped with funds subscribed for by the American women's War Relief fund
 Lady Paget, wife of General Ar thur H. Paget. who Is president of the American Women's War Relief fund, told the Associated Press cor- respondent the other day that, al- though the hospitals were established for British patients, their doors would always be open for the American sick Lady Paget, Twill undoubtedly be es- our two hospitals will always lind room to minister to their wants.
 Americas entry into the war has spurred us on in our charitable work. We American wives of English hus- bands have been working indefatiga- bly since tho beginning of the war.

 Lady Puget Tlrcless Worker
 Lady Paget has heen foremost in her charity work since the outbreak of hostil;tics. She has gathered from America 3.500,oO0 socks and these, with tens of thousands of garments such as Underwear, lajamas and shirts, have been sent to British fiEht- ing men in need of t1em. Lady Paget personally. has raised in America and England f25O,0O0 for British wound ed, l35,O0 for Russian wounded, f32,- 900 for French wounded and f25,OO0 for the American hospitals in Eng land.

The joint tactical committee. composed of three technf- cal army and three navy men. he said, decides upon the type of machines de- sired and all matters pertaining to the construction of aircraft. They arrive at their decisions, he said, and sub- init them to the Aircraft Production Board. which is responsible for CO., ordinating the industrial activities re- quired for tho service.
 Only recently. MT. Coffin said, at a conference of Canadian, British and American air experts at Buffalo, a type of training machine had been agreed upon, so as to have a stand ard type for the three forces. The French have worked independently. One important development by Amer ican air experts at the front he said had been that of high-speed ma chine used for scouting and attack.
 ''Some of these high-speed machines are now in this country" said MT. Coffin. "Others will soon be here, which our manufacturers will stand ardize with the French machine of the same type"
 Asked by senator brauy ne thought the $54,000,0o0 carried in the bill before the committee would be enough to do the worked mapped out. Mir. Coffin replied:
 Decidedly not. We need much more than that, but we can do good deal with it.
 MT. Coffin felt confident, he said, that Germany would not be able to }n ha al America pushed the work of build ing the airplanes.
 "dermanys manufacturing resources are already strained to the breaking point. If she attempts to produce air craft she must weaken somewhere else. We can have the air supremacy and win the war if we 50 at the work in dead earnest now and don't ston until the war is over," MT. Cof- in concluded.
