AVIATOR INSTRUCTOR
AND STUDENT KILLED

Newport News, Va, May 9.-Victor
Carlstrom, aviator-instructor of the
Atlantic coast aeronautical station
here, and Carey B. Eppes of Newport
News. an army student aviator, were
almost instantly killed today when
their machine collapsed at an altitude
of about $500 feet.
Hundreds of persons saw the acci.
dent and children at one OF the pub
lie schools watching the fliers during
their noon recess were panic-stricken
Carlstrom was giving Eppes his first
lesson. They rapidly rose to about
$500 feet and We're flying smoothly
when the machine suddenly crumpled
up and plunged downward. As it fell
observers saw the right wing sailing
after it. 1t had given way and caused
the remainder of the plane to col
lapse.
Carlstrom reached the zenith of his
fame when he flew from Chicago to
New York several months ago. Before
that time he had flown from Newport
News to New York without a stop,
setting a record for cross-country fly
ing. Carlstrom also held the Ameri-
can record for altitude with pilot and
one passenger, having ascended to a
height of $500 feet here year ago.

BELGIUM RELIEF

United States Is to Furnish
$12,500,000 Monthly to
Save People of Conquered
Territory From Starvation,

Iuf hOHhIko JOURNAL bftCtAh IEAbkp WINK
Washington, May 9.--The American
government today assumed the imme-
diate financial burden of Belgian re-
by arranging to lend to the French
and Belgian governments jointly $75,-
600, 600 to be expended by the Ameri-
to go to Belgium and northern
France.
The mopey will be advanced in
monthly installments of $i2,500, 900,
of which $500 900 will 20 to Belgium
and $5,000,O00 to France. The way
has been left open for the commission
to apply for more money when the
loan is exhausted at the end of six
months.
Under the arrangement the Ameri-
can commission will bear the entire
cost of supplies, thus relieving the
British and French governments
which have hitherto borne about 90
per cent of it. Administration of the
relief abroad will be left in the hands
OF Spanish and Dutch agents and the
Belgians and French themselves. The
money lent is a part of the $4,000, ,000,-
900 allied fund being raised here.
Herbert c. Hoover, director of the
American commission, announcing the
loan today, said:
1.-The inability of the commission to
secure ships to provide full rations to
Belgium and northern France makes
1t possible for the $12.500,0O0 monthly
to cover the present restricted opera
tons of the commission. There will
be ample need for any balances in
hand and any further subscriptions
for reconstruction work and the care
of orphan children in Belgium after
peace, even if new emergencies during
the war do not require the use of all
available funds"

CONFEREES NOT

THE DEADLOCK
Senators Are Determined to
Have Provisions for Roose-

bition at Army Posts,
t.~ sess,ss JOURNAL SPECIAL Ls.sso w,ss,

Washington, May 9.-There was
evidence tonight that the senate con-
ferees on the army bill were about
ready to report a deadlock and ask
for further instructions. They are in
sisting on the senate provisions to en-
force prohibition at army posts and to
permit Colonel Roosevelt to raise d
division. The differences in the age
limits of those subject to the selective
draft, Fl to 27 in the senate and 81
to 40 in the house bill, also are dis
puted. but they probably could be ad-
justed If the other two issues were out
of the way.
Senators on the committee feel that
unless the administration exerts
strong pre- ire the senate will insist
on retaining the Roosevelt amend-
ment, and the house members are of
the opinion that the house will not
accept it. There have been all sorts of
suggestions of trades or compromises
but none has been acceptable in case
where both committees feel that a
question Of principle is involved.

FL Paso, Tex, May 9.-Many
former Villa officers and followers
are crossing the border from Mexico
and seeking amnesty from Mexican
government officials here. More than
twenty are known to have come over
during the past nine days, since Cen
eral Carranza became president. They
all agree that Villa was decisively de-
feated by General Murguia in north
ern Mexico and say Villas command
has been scattered throughout the
north.
Through With villa.
A letter was received here late to-
day by Emilio Vasquez, a former
Villa captain, from four of his COM
mand when he was with Villa. The
letter was written at Torreon, where
the soldiers had gone after quitting
Villa. They wrote that they were
through with the Villa revolution and
advised Vasquez to stay in the United
States. They said Villas horses and
mules were almost all captured by
General Murguia and those who were
with him yet were forced to march
on foot. Villa. the letter added, was
bitter against fate, and killed his men
upon the slightest provocation.
Maderos to Return.
Among the Mexican political refu-
gees who have announced their in
tention of returning to Mexico soon
are the members of the Madero fam
lily who have been living here for sew
/. Madero said recently he was going
to Coahuila to work the Madero
lands there.
Gen. Enrique Rivera, a former
Diaz commander, has also returned
to Mexico City after receiving guar
antees Of safety.

that Villa was moving southwark to-
ward the Parral district and was now
near Satevo, below Chihuahua City

LISTENS TO
LOAN SPEECH
Geo. "A. Bangs Delivers Ad-
dress on Chief Topic
Of the Day.
Trainrnen's Dance Becomes
Well Attended Patriotic
Affair.

"A large crowd gathered last night
at the, city auditorium for the patrl-
otic dance given by the local chapter
OF the Brotherhood Of Railroad Train
men and actively sponsored by the
Liberty Loan committee. n m
mense hall was profusely and artistic
ally decorated with Liberty Loan post
ers, with flags of America and her al
lies. and with emblems of the Brother
hood.
The chief feature OF the evening
was a speech on the significance OF
the Liberty Loan by City Attorney
George A. Bangs, who was introduced
to the audience by President w.
O'Connor.
After speaking of the pleasure and
honor felt at being permitted to al
dress this gathering and the courtesy
Of the occasion in that the festivities
had been interrupted for the purpose
of listening to a speech and really par
ticipating in the Liberty Loan move
ment, Mr.. Bangs said:
Distinct Hostile Invasion.
at is not unwise on all reasonable
occasions to consider the reason why
we are at war America is more than
the mere land upon which we stand.
We all love our native land n par
ticularly we here in North Dakota love
the many attractive features of the
country, the beautiful prairies, our
rivers and the groves and other beau
ties Of nature, but all these things do
not Measure up to ones ideals of the
country because America represents
much more.
"America means liberty and de-
mocracy and it is this thought which
comes to everyone when the name is
mentioned rather than the land and
the water situated within our boun-
daries. 1t is his ideal which has heoN
violated by the Prussian government
and the violation constitutes a DIS
tinct invasion of America as though
armies had actually been landed on
our coast"
Different Stages of Crisis.
After reviewing the different sub
marine murders beginning with the
German pledges made September 1,
1915, and including the Arabic, An
coma, Frye, Persia, Lusitania, and the
renewal of the pledges in each in
stance with their immediate violation
MI. Bangs continued, saying that the
depth Of humiliation. degradation and
insult had overwhelmed the Ameri.

can people when on January 81. 1917
we were told by the German gov
ernmvnt that We could nc longer
walk the highways of the world with
out the consent Of q Prussian soldier,
and that u ships could sail the seas
only in a striped uniform OF humill-
alton along the pathways marked out
by the Prussian government, to yield
to which meant national degradation;
that the reply Of President Wilson re-
calling our ambassador to Germany
and giving Count Won Bernstron ms
passports voiced the unanimous judg-
ment Of the American people.
Why the Liberty Loan?
But there was a stronger reason
why we should invest In the Lioerty
Loan and that was n feeling, or the
emotion, which swelled u hearts
when we thought of our boys some
where. in France" offering themselves
at their country's call. We ourselves
could not 60, but we could at least,
through the agency Of the Liberty
Loan, aid and assist those who did
go, and to hat extent participate with
them in the glory which would in
evitably be theirs.
We should give not as a charity to
d supplicant, but we should give as we
would give to a brother or to a son,
glorying in the opportunity and in our
power to respond to it.
Finally Mr.. Bangs paid high tribute
to those leaders of organized labor
who had also become among the
leaders of patriotism and intense 10y
atty throughout the country.
That the address struck responsive
chords in the audience was evident
from the spontaneous and enthusiastic
applause which greeted Mr.. Bangs.
The dance was then continued and
everybody seemed to have, as OF
the committee said it, "a corking good
time"
Emard's orchestra furnished the
music.
The proceeds Of the affair will be
used for the purpose of keeping uE
payment of membership dues Of the
members who are serving the United
States in the army and navy.

Today Subjects Bridge
to Final Test.

The new Northern Pacific railroad
steel bridge cro the Red river was
formally accepted today by NJ. Hart
ley of Staples, Mimi, a supervisor of
the Northern Pacific, who had the
bridge subjected to a final trial test
and found it working in excellent con-
dition. There still remains some clean
ing up work and clearing away of
construction material, but aside from
this work which will be completed
within a few days, the bridge is ready
for service, in fact, it has already been
used during the last few days.
The swing p Of the bridge be-
came a necessity when the war de-
partment declared the river a navig-
able stream, and for the purpose Of
keeping the river open to eventual
navigation the Northern Pacific con-
structed the bridge in accordance
with the orders of the government.
The length of the bridge is approx
mately $40 feet.
