10000 PLANES F0R U. s.
ARMY UNDER CONSTRUCTION


Twenty thousand airplanes for
Americas fighting forces in France,
authorized in the $640,OOO,OO0 Avia-
ton Bill passed by Congress last
July, actually are under construc.
ton.
The necessary motors also are
being manufactured, Secretary Bak-
err announced, and the whole air
craft program has been so co-ordi-
mated that when planes and motors
are completed trained vaiators, as
well as machine guns and all other
equipment, will be waiting for them
"When this nations army moves up
to participate in the fighting" said
the Secretary, "the eyes of her army
will be ready"
The types of planes cover the en-
tire range of training machines,
light, high-speed fighting machines,
powerful battle and bombing planes
of the heaviest design, and embrace
as well giant battle craft capable of
the work of the Italian Caproni, the
British Handley-Page and similar
types.
"Within a reasonable time, con-
sidering the period for preparation"
Mr.. Bakers statement said, "this
country will send its first airplane to
Europe. This airplane, from the tip
of its propeller to the engine, ma
chine gun and camera, will have
been made in the United States,
"There has been a remarkably
gratifying response to the call for
aviators. This country has an I'M
limited supply of young men pos
sessing courage, self-reliance, good
Judgment and decisiOn-the things
required in the air service. This
service today is fitting thousands Of
Americans for flying"
Twenty-four flying schools have
been authorized, the statement re-
veals, and besides the thousands
training here students from the Unit
ed States are training in all the al
lied countries. while many of them
are undergoing intensive schooling
behind several of the battlefronts.
Provision also had to be made for
the manufacture of the many Access
SORES necessary to aircraft service
at the front, such as machine guns,
observation apparatus, cameras and
the like.
Mr.. Baker announced that the de-
partment's expectations and hopes
for consummation of its extensive
aircraft program are being more
than realized.
There is practically no limit to
the number of aerial fighters which
/
the United States can and will fur
nish in the war for democracy"
continued the Secretary. "No time
has been lost in experiments. The
machines which already have proved
successful will be reproduced in
large numbers in this country"

CHILDREN,s DAY.

Friday of this week has been desig-
mated as Modern Health Crusade day.
BY the National Association for the
study and Prevention of Tuberculo-
els The day will be observed in the
schools thruout the country by the
modern health crusaders, the organi-
sation of children, now 100. 900 strong.
which was brought into being a year
ago as a part of the last Red Cross
Christmas seal campaign. In this OBJ
servance the National association has
obtained the cooperation of school
superintendents in cities of 10000 pop
ulation and over thruout the country.
The object of the organization is not
SO much to obtain money for the anti
tuberculosis movement, as to give the
children definite tasks whereby they
can help the health campaign. Each
child who becomes a modern health
crusader receives certificate of en-
rpllment for doing a series of health
chores" at least forty of which must
be performed each week.
Modern Health Crusade day will be
devoted to interesting the children in
the NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. and public health
movement Use will be made of
health plays, talks, composition con-
tests. motion pictures and other fea-
lures. Louise F. Brands story, "Serv-
ing Uncle sam" written for the occa-
sion, will be used in thousands of
schools as a feature of the program.
The children win also be enlisted ON
fhis dav TO self Red Cross seals. Spe-
cial ranks and accompanying badges
win be awarded TO crusaders who sell
q given number of seals.

Once more the president has con-
gress on his hands. Or shall it be
said congress has the president on its
hands? Mr.. Wilson in the past has
been remarkably successful in obtain
ing from the national legislature
whatever he asked. The process has
been slow at times but he usually has
had his way in the end. Since the
entry of the United States into the
world war. nothing has taken place to
cause the country or the congress to
waver in their fealty to the man who
is guiding the destinies of the nation
in it's hour of trial. There is cause
for hope and reason to believe that
the work of the nations law makers
VIII proceed with less friction, and
with greater singleness of purpose
than was evidenced during the last
session. Members have had time to

war machine to apply to the vocation
al board for help was the shipping
board. Everyone knows that ships
will win the war" and the trouble
that we are having in getting them
built. Now that the difficulty of de-
Gliding who is to supervise the job has
been settled, there comes up the even
more distressing problem of who is go
ing to do it, In a word, the shipping
board cannot get the labor it needs.
1t is in special need of ship-riveters.
There are lots of riveters in the coun-
try who have been trained in riveting
the structural iron used in large build
ingS, but the structural work requires
a different method of riveting from
that used in building ships, and this
difference of method means that
structural riveters cannot generally be
put on ship work without some special
training. The vocational board has
tackled this problem by putting into
the field an age--t who is to gather
all possible data He will find out how
many riveters trained in building work
are available, and what additional
training they will require to make
them useful in ship-building. Then
the board will proceed to the organ
ization of schools where the training
can be applied.
The drafted man who wants to
serve his country in a trained capacity
should keep in touch with the super
intendent of evening schools in his
city, or in the large city nearest his
home. Even tho no course may be
offered which seems to fit his apti-
tudes, such a course may be offered
before he is called. This is his OPP
portunity to learn something out OF
war besides the art of killing. to serve
with his brain as well as his body.

THE MESSAGE.

While President Wilson was deliv
ering his annual address to congress
at the customary time and place. he
was really delivering a message from
the American people to the nations of
the earth Never in the history of the
world. perhaps, has a single speaker
been able to address SO large or so in
terested an audience.
The presidents words are certain to
command the serious attention of both
friends and foes of this country.
Those who have desired to know
Americas war aims should remain no
longer in doubt as to what they are.
The president has stated them in
plain, unequivocaI language, in words
that all can understand.
First of all the president, speaking
for the United States. demands an end
to the Hohenzollern power in Ger
many in order that the German peo-
pie may be represented at the peace
table by some one who can be trusted.
He demands that the wrongs inflict-
ed upon weaker nations by the central
powers shall be righted.
He demands that territory acquired
by the central powers thru force of
arms shall be restored to its rightful
owners.
He demands that Germa..y shall
loosen her grip on the nations allied
with her and permit them to shape
their own future destinies.
And when all this has been done he
demands that Germany shall be treat
ed fairly and generously and not be
made to suffer unduly for the wrongs
committed by her present rulers.
A liberty loving nation with the
welfare of humanity and the world at
heart could ask no less and could
grant no more.

BY NIKSAH.



Annapolis is a serious little capital
nowadays. The Naval academy has
graduated two classes in one year, for
the first time since the Civil War,
and as long as the war lasts, the four
years course will probably be cut to
three. The situation has brought a
new air of sobriety to the Naval acad-
envy Discipline works with an extra
snap; there is less skylarking and
more attention to the fine points of
drill. And the whole town has felt
the changed atmosphere, for there
are few places that reflect the spirit
of a single institution as Annapolis
does that of the academy.
= The war, especially the naval side
of the war. is very real to Annapolis
Many OF the older families have known
the boys, class after class, year after
year, since what seems to the enter
ing plebe to be time immemorfal
There is never a merchant ship sunk
but the town speculates as to the
fate of the naval gun crew, and if
the news is bad. there will be scores
to mourn the lieutenant in command
and to bring up anecdotes of his acad-
envy days. When a patrol boat is

they look at the boys with new eyes.
The gold stripes on the blue cuffs
stand now for more than the number

profession. They tell the Annapolis
eye the number of months between
the lad and active duty in the North
Atlantic.

The Grape Blight.

A disease imported from America
almost ruined the grape and vine in
dustry of Europe, when the grape
phylloxera left these shores and fast
ened on the European vines. Only
the most heroic measures held the
pest in check. Now an Italian scion
fist announces that the phyIloxera in
Europe has developed beyond any
point that it ever reached in its nativk
America, going SO far as to produce
different species peculiar to different
varieties of European grapes Some
of these newly developed species are
harmless with respect to all but one
or two varieties of grapevine, whereas
the original phylloxera attacked them
all about equally.
