which earlier in the war had been
filled by Earl -'urzon and later by
Lord Sydcnham.
Tho new air chief is as remarlSa bic
in appearance as he is in his successes.
To the casual observer he presents all
the appearance of typical English
country gentleman. Closer inspection,
however, discloscs the vigilance of his
eyes. the air OF natural born ruler
of men and a phlesmatic manner that
is also quite self confident
Lord Cowdray is noted for his tact

views he has given amounted to these

Personally he owns 10000 acres of
land In England and 1900 in Scot

known to go far into the millions.

aerial warfare with the announced
purpose of maintaining the present air
supremacy Of the entente allies, is
better known to the public at large as
Sir Weetman Pearson, which was the
name he wore before his elevation TO
the peerage several years ago. For
many years he has had the reputation
of being ono OF Englands greatest
organizers. This reputation has ex-
tended across the Atlantic. for in
America Lord Cowdray is widely
known in financial and Industrial cir
cles by reason of his successful compe-
tition with the Standard Oil company
for control of the Mexican oil fields
In 1899 Lord Cowdray paid his first
visit To Mexico, thereby making the
opening wedge in that republic for the
