CUBA I ] SE N J AV|ATORS If
 FRANCE
(By Associated Press)

HAVANA, Cuba, Sept. 1. - Colonel Manuel Coronado, member of the Gu ] ban senate and editor of the newspa- per La Discussion, has added a new phase to Cubas alliance with the Uni ted States in the war against Germany by originating an aviation unit which, it is announced, will be offered to France, with complete equipment, in the near future Though other means of cooperation have assumed shape here since Cuba's declaration of war against Germany on April 8 last it is believed probable from the enthusi- asm shown by it's members, that the "Escadrille Cubaine." as the flying unit is called. will be the first body of fighting men from Cuba to serve on French soil.
 Colonel Coronado's plans called for body of twenty-five trained avia, ors to comprise the escadrille. but al ready thirty-throe youths, who are re- presentatives of the best families of Cuba, have volunteered to take the prescribed aviation course and indi- Fidually to bear the expense of their airplanes and equipment. Many of the volunteers for the escadrile are graduates of French universities, and all speak French and are aviation en- thusiasts. Senator Coronado has just returned from New York, where he conferred with officials of the Aero Club of America and airplane manu- lecturers over the details of the esca- drill, organization.
 q believe that the escadrille will be the most practical and at the same time the most appropriate way of showing Cuba's sympathy with the cause of the allies" said Colonel Coro- nado. The colonel has asked the navy department in Washington for an ar rangement by which the Cuban aviat- ors may undergo their preliminary training at the navy aviation school 1t Pensacola, Fla
 While for obvious reasons the de- tails of many of the cooperative war measures of Cuba and the United States are not permissible for publica- ation, substantial progress has been announced officially here in the CO., ordinate work of the Cuban and United States army and general staffs.
 Cuban military commissioners will shortly announce the promotions of 28S officers in the Cuban army, in keeping with the enlargements of the islands active military force for pos sible duty later in Europe.

J. Bayer, milk dealer of 23S Chap

Wagner had two conferences today
that finally resulted in the former be-
ing accompanied into the presence Of
Chief of Police William j. Rawlings
for a little instruction. The confer
ence resulted from an experience of u
horse used by Bayer and a small boy
in charge of the horse with snow
drifts on Allen street. One Of Bayer's
wagons got stuck and the small boy
was sent back with the horse. At
Allen street the horse fell, the small
boy got frightened and ran away
while residents of that section tele-
phoned police headquarters. Police
man Wagner went out in the service
car, found that the horse had been as
sisted to it's feet and blanketed and
took it to Hoffman's stables on East
street. Instructions were given to
hold the animal pending advices from
headquarters.
Shortly after Policeman Wagner
left, Bayer appeared and took the
horse, despite orders for him not to
do so. Again Policeman Wagner went
er and escorted him to headquarters.
AS a result of the experience, Bayer
