Germ of Discomfort.

Germ OF Discomfort.
WASHINGTON, Oct. lift the
germ of discomfort grown in the Ger
man navy reaches out to the German
public-President Wilson's dream of
a Teutonic empire minus Hohenzol-
lerism, may be reached far in ad-
vance of the date generally expected.
In such a light American officials
viewed the news of the German naval
rebellion today In it they saw the
chance that the long hoped for in
ternal troubles for Germany are
brewing.
Previously they had feared such an
uprising would be slow in coming
and while the Wilhelmshaven Incl
dent was apparently an isolated case,
officials predicted it will be the fore
runner of other internal troubles.
That men closely held in barracks
or on ship board where they are
more constantly under the eyes Of
their officers than are enlisted men
in the army, scattered as these lat
ter are, in dugouts, long trenches
and in pill-boxes, should have thus
conspired, was considered significant.
While there has been disposition
here on the part of some to doubt
that the German people would split
on the matter of their intriguing
leadership, the most responsible
authorities have felt all along that
President Wilson's ideal was pract1c-
able. Sooner or later they believe
the German people will waken to the
realization that they are pawns in
losing game.

 IN AIR CORPS

PHOENIX, Ariz., August 1.-While enlistments in the aviation section of the signal service were closed some time ago, with Arizona well represent ed, it is again possible for young men to become connected with that branch. These later enlistments, however, will not insure instruction in actual flying. The government now desires to recruit it's aviation section with the addition of skilled artisans.
 According to bulletin just received at the local recruiting station by Ser geant-in-Charge Joseph Hannah, it is necessary for men for the aviation sec tion, signal corps, to have one of the following trades: Blacksmith, cabinet maker, chauffeur, clerk, cook, drafts man, electrician, engine repair man, engine tester, lithographer, machinist, mechanicians (airplane), metal work CT, magneto repair man rigger, sail maker, stenographer, toolmaker, vul- canizer, welder packer, stockmen, boat builder, instrument repair man, mold CT, pattern maker, propeller tester, saddler, bugler, carpenter (boss), car penter, painter. plumber, truckmaster, cordage workman, gas works employe, tailor, skilled and unskilled laborer.
 Enlistments are particularly sought of young men from IS to 21 years and from 31 to 40 years. In this connec- tion attention is called to the fact that all men between the ages of IS and 40 years are eligible for enlist ment in the United States army, ir- respective of the selective draft desig- nation of men between 21 and 31.

 NEW YORK, July 29.-The leaders in the National and American leagues left their home grounds for the road last week and as a result found the going harder and their leads cut down. Twenty points were clipped from New Yorks advantage in the National and Chicago lost nine.
 In the National, St. Louis and Gin cinnati, on their home grounds to face the eastern invasion, continued their good work and both teams passed Philadelphia, while gaining on New York. Of five games played St. Louis did not lose one and Mathew sons men won four out of five.
 New York's winning streak of the past week was broken Monday by Pittsburgh and in two games against Pittsburgh and three against Chicago New York won only two. Chicago braced and beat Boston, after losing to the Braves Tuesday.
 Chicago owed the maintenance of its lead in the American to two victories over Boston the first part of the week. Against New York in six games the last of the week the White SOX could do no better than break even. Bos- ton, after losing two games to Chi cago, met St. Louis at home in five games and won every game of the se- ries. The Red Sox now are only two games behind Chicago.
 Cleveland showed no improvement, while Detroit continued it's good work and New York improved over the pre- vious week, with the result that Sat urday Cleveland and Detroit were tied for third place in the race, with New York only two games behind. The Tigers went into third place today when Cleveland lost to Washington.
 Of the 12 games played in the ma jor leagues Saturday, eight were won by one run, six out of seven in the American being decided by that mar row margin. Four of the games went into extra innings.

Andrews Ready To Fight Teutons
 till Gong Sounds

In order that he might arrange his personal affairs accordingly, Charles s. Andrews of Chloride, brother of T. c. Andrews, came down to Kingman last night and was unoffcially ex- amined for the army by Dr. Edward Bowes of the local exemption board. Mir. Andrews is one of the first men to be called under the draft law. He wanted to learn whether or not he was likely to pass and a superficial ex- animation disclosed that in all prob ability he would be accepted by the army.
 Mir. Andrews has had two years in Washington State Medical college and very likely will be able to get into the hospital or medical corps. He has been in Chloride two months.
 Although I'm married, don't ex- pect to claim exemption," said Mr. Andrews. Eve been up against some pretty good fighters in my life and those Germans haven't got me buff faloed." Mr. Andrews has done con- siderable pugilistic work and is splendid athlete.

1 safety. The great fight happened on
 Saturday, May 5, 1917, in a haze that
 was so thick that the pilots could hardly see the ground at two thousand feet, between five English machines and twenty-seven German machines. In the fight the British lost only one of their superbly equipped machines and the Germans lost almost all of their machines. Some of the wiser German pilots realizing how futile was the combat against the better equip ped machines beat a nasty retreat when they had the chance. More than twenty of the German machines were actually shot down or set on fire when the fight was at it's best. The fight ranged from three thousand to twelve feet and the German high angle guns were used all the time but no English machine was hit by them. Many miraculous and hair breadth encoun- ters took place in this wonderful fight.
 Into the action the British flew in regular formation. At the altitude of eleven thousand feet one of the Eng fish machines got into trouble and the engine went wrong. It was nec- essary for the pilot to leave the formation and in a perfectly useless machine went tumbling headlong to the ground with the Germans after him for the finish. One of the other English pilots saw the predicament that his companion was in and as quick as a flash he dived and before the German could do his work the British machine almost touched the Dutchman's tail and in another second turned clean over and crashed nose foremost down to earth. Then the miracle happened. The fallen English machine had caught it's breath and as the pilot was new to the game and had again secured control of his machine, climbed eight thousand feet and re- joined the formation. After climbing from below to this inverted hell the
 Germans firing at him every foot of the way, he was one of the last of the British pilots to leave the scene on this great fight when it drew to a close and the Germans had been dis patched.

LOCAL AVIATOR, SOON TO GO TO FRANCE, SAYS AIRPLANE
 MAY BRING WAR TO CLOSE
Writes Interesting Article On the Aviation Service for the
 Daily Miner.

The following article on the use of the airplane in the European war was written by Ray Swaar, who is connected with the Wash ington-Arizona mine at Mineral Park. Mr. Swaar is one of the original Curtiss flyers, only two others of which are still alive. He has been an official instructor in aviation for the United States army and navy, and only recently was called by the government to report on August 5 for service in France. Mir. Swaar believes that the airplane is destined to play an important part in the war and possibly be the deciding factor in the defeat of Germany.

OF HAWAII HAS AMERICAN FLAG
 RAISED OVER HOME

HONOLULU, Hawaii, August - Ex-Queen Liliuokalani of the Hawaii an Islands has shown great loyalty to the Stars and Stripes since President Wilson signed the declaration of war against Germany. The ex-queen has always been loyal to the United States. Since 1893 she has resided in Washington Place, which was the home of her husband, the prince con- sort Dominis, who died at the begin ming of her reign in 1891.
 Immediately after the declaration of war, the queen called her chamber lain, Col. Curtis P. Iaukea, now sec retary of the territory under appoint ment by President Wilson, and re- quested that an American flag be raised over her home instead of the customary Hawaiian flag. This was the first time an American flag had ever floated above Washington Place. The home was named in honor of George Washington when it was erect ed in 1S48. The name Washington Place was officially recorded by the king of Hawaii of that period, Ram chamcha III.

REDCROSS ASKS
 EXPERTS ID GO . TORRANCE SOON
Motor Truck Drivers, Help CTS and Mechanics Needed To Carry On Relief Work; Employers Urged to Pay Mems Salaries.

WASHINGTON, August 1.-Twen- ty experienced motor truck drivers, twenty helpers and ten expert mechan- ics are needed at once by the Amer ican Red Cross for service in France, according to cabled request just re- ceived by the Red Cross war council from Major Grayson NJ. ?. Murphy in charge of the Red Cross mission to France.
 The mechanical squad will include master carpenters, body builders, painters, machinists and electricians two each. The trucks for which driv- CTS are sought are of two-ton capacity and will be used in the rapid transfer of Red Cross supplies from seaports to their destinations, a service made necessary by the congested condition of the railroads in France.
 Volunteers beyond military age have been asked for this service by the American Red Cross to work with out compensation and Red Cross of ficials are hopeful that employers of motor drivers and the other expert help required will contribut ethe ser vices of the men, paying their salaries while in Red Cross service.
 The Red Cross will pay the trans portation and living expenses of the men while abroad. It is the intention when the men are recruited to give them intensive mechanical training, some drill and if possible some pre- lin;inary instruction in the French lan- guage.
 This contribution to the American Red Cross by employers of skilled labor would be similar to the centri- buttons of large organizations to the Red Cross staff at headquarters which includes nearly seventy-fve volun- teers, many of whom are paid by out side organizations while working for the Red Cross.
 Offers of assistance along the line of these Red Cross needs should be made to A. W. Staub, Director of the Division of the American Red Cross, Metropolitan Tower, New York City, or to the nearest Red Cross chapter.

COL. HARRIS IS
 CONFIDENT HE
 WILL HOLD JOB
CFrOm rhur.d.y,, Daily AIin.r.,

PHOENIX, Ariz., August 2.-With Adjutant General Charles W. Harris wearing his uniform of colonel in the Arizona National Guard and occupy ing the offices of the adjutant general in the state house, the conflict" be- tween that officer and Governor Thos. E. Campbell assumes the attitude of the calm before the storm, With the adjutant general apparently awaiting the next move of the governor to oust him. What that move will be was not intimated at the state house, nothing having been done since the sending of the letter from the governor to the adjutant general demanding the resig- nation of the latter.
 The resignation was not forthcom- ing, nor will it be, according to the ad- jutant general, who continued to trans act whatever business there came to that office.
 That he is resting easy" in his of flee of adjutant general regardless of the demand of the governor for his resignation was the statement of Colonel Harris, as with the statutes of Arizona in one hand he read the laws which he insisted made his office i'm pregnable as far as the governor was concerned.
 'The governor not having the power of appointiong me to this office, has not the power to discharge me-" dec Jared Colonel Harris. ''The statute says that the governor shall appoint the adjutant general upon the recom- mendation of the general staff, and majority of the officers of the national guard, including a majority of the members of the general staff, shortly after the last election, requested of the governor that he make no attempt to make a change in the office of ad- jutant general" added Colonel liar ris.
 q can be removed from office only by legislative act" declared Colonel Harris, 'Fbecause the last legislature passed an act providing that all off cers of the national guard and the ad-I jutant general shall continue in office without the issuance of new commis- sions, and further provided that all of fcers shall hold their commissions un- til vacated for cause as prescribed by law.
 "As far as I know" declared Colonel Harris, "the governor has no cause to to remove me from office. The governors action in attempting to oust me cannot be caused by any reports it is rumored I have made re- garding the strike or the I. W. W.'s," declared the colonel, because l have. made no reports whatever"
 Nothing probably will be done fur ther in regard to the removal of Colonel Harris until after August 5, on which date the Arizona National Guard enters the federal service. Ali ter that date the adjutant general will be the only part of the national guard remaining.
 It is apparent that there is no doubt in the governors office of the right of the governor to remove any officer who received his appointment at the hands of the governor, and that Colonel Harris comes within this right.

and Russian unity by blood and iron if argument and reason, honor and conscience" were not sufficient. He attributed the recent revolt to the de- sertion of constitutional Democratic members of the Lvoff government. To stop the military retreat, to avert economic dissolution, to restore the country's finances, were, he said, his immediate aims. Kerensky conceded the serious position of the army and the necessity for heroic measures.
 Toward the end of July, Kerensky appeared to have injected his influ- ence and power into the situation to an extent thaat foreshadowed an end to the Russian retreat. The death penalty was restored in the army and insubordinations were ordered punish ed in that manner. The Command of Death" composed of woman soldiers, was setting an example by it's bravery and its desregard of the odds against it, in the Wilma region; and south of the Carpathians the Russian forces, in cooperation with the reformed Ru- manian army, struck important of fensive blows.
