THOUSAND AMERICAN
AVIATORS A MONTH

Washington, June 14.-The United
States has completed plans to send
1000 aviators a month to France.
The first force will be ready to EN-
bark in September.
These men will have received pre-
liminary training i'm technical schools
and on aviation fields before they
leave.
The majority of those who will &c
with the first contingent are now
learning the rudiments of flying. In
France they will be given a short pc
riod of intensive training under French
instructors and then will start for the
battle front.
American manufacturers have prom
ised to supply the training planes
needed. so the French and English
may devote all their energies to the
turning out of fast and powerful bat
tie planes.
IL is not unlikely some great auto
mobile factories will be turned into
airplane plants.

KING CONSTANTINE OF
GREECE LOSES THRONE

Athens, June liking Constantine
!. of Greece has abdicated in favor OF
his second son, Prince Alexander
The fall of the ruler resulted from
a denial of the protecting powers,
France, Great Britain and Russia.
The demand that King Constantine
abdicate also eliminated Crown Prince
George as his successor, the latter be-
ing included among Greeks In official
life considered strongly pro-German.
Constantine was forced to abdicate
because he had lost the support OF
his people and brought his nation al.
most to ruin through insistence that
Greece join with German intrigue. His
successor is liberal minded, not sub
ject to the intense pro-Germanism OF
his royal father and acceptable to the
allies.
The change In rulers was effected
without disorder.
Constantine and Prince George both
intend to leave their country at once.
1t is said they will go on a British
warship to Switzerland by way OF
Italy.

Espionage Bill, With En-
barge Clause, Approved.
AFFECTSNEUTRAL NATIONS
Measure Places In Hands of Chief Ex-
ecutive a Weapon by Which II Is
Intended to Prevent Goods From the
United States Reaching Germany.

Washington, June IA. - Control OF
exports was given the government
when the senate approved the admin.
istration espionage bill with its EN-.
barge clause.
The measure, sent to the president
for his signature, puts into the hands
of the executive weapon by which il
is intended to stop supplies from en-
tering Germany through neutral coun.
tries.
Passage of the bill removes to a
great extent the necessity OF the Brit
ish blockade, since the United States,
originator of most of the exports that
reach neutrals, will see that the coun-
tries are supplied with just enough
food and materials for their own
needs
The measure also gives another
powerful weapon to the president in
that ii permits him to trade for arti-
cles controlled by the allies, which
heretofore have been permitted to
come to America only in limited guam
titles.
Fair control over shipping will re-
suit The act will require licenses
for export cargoes and the govern
ment can force neutral ships in har-
bors where they have sought safety
from submarines to transport cargoes
needed by their home countries.
