Washington, June 15.--How Lieu

Campbell, taking the air together, shot
down the first two German airplanes
to fall victims to American aviators
with General Pershngs expeditionary
forces wildly told in the personal
diary of Lieutenant Winslow, made
public tonight by the war department.
For their feat the officers were decor.

later proposed for the American dis

The account, which discloses that
the two machines were sent down
within minute of each other and al
most on top of an American airdrome,
was not written for publication, but
the department explained that be-
cause of its historical and descriptive
value it was decided to make it pub
lie.
Lieutenant Winslow, who was the
patrol leader, wrote that he and Lieu
tenant Campbell since designated as
the first American ace, were on emer-
gency call duty on Sunday morning
April Ia last, when, at S:45 o'clock
information came that two German
planes were about 1000 meters above

and were soon off, Campbell in the
lead. Winslow, however. was first to
get his man.

With the American Army in France,
June is (by the Associated Press) -
A German raiding party Of $50 men
and three officers attacked the Ameri-
can line south of Thiaucourt at 2
o'clock this morning. AS a result the
enemy lost at least twenty killed, of
whom one officer and four men died
in the American trenches. The Amer
lean casualties were light and they
took one wounded prisoner.
The attack was preceded by heavy
|artillery preparation during which the
hrear line and villages in the back area
also were shelled. The Germans
were armed with pistols, rifles and
grenades Some of them also were
equipped with light machine guns
which sprayed the American COM
munication trenches as the Germans
approached behind a. box barrage.
The Americans replied with hot
rifle and machine gun fire and held
the enemy in the front line, excepting
| in isolated instances. Some of the
Germans who attempted to proceed
toward the American rear lines in
search of prisoners were driven back
or killed in close quartered fighting.
One American, when surrounded by
German officer and five privates
refused to surrender. Instead he
Ithrew a bomb which killed the Of
ficer and wounded the others Of the
enemy party.
According to the wounded prisoner
who was taken the raiding party be-
llonged to the 104th crown prince reg
iment of the Fortieth division. He
said that the division arrived on this
front from Russia April I.
A sudden outburst of shells came
from the German guns three hours
after the raid. This artillery attack
was not followed by infantry action.

40, 900 Men Needed During Next
/, IL Months to Man Neln .Warships
Placed in Service BY America


Washington, June 15.--Upwards OF
40,0 900 men will be needed to man the
great fleet of warships which the Uni
ted States will turn out during the
next fiscal year, the house naval com
mittee was advised today by Secretary
Daniels
In asking the house to concur in the
senate amendment to the naval ap-
preparations bill increasing the navy's
enlisted personnel from $1,000 to 49,
4S5 men, Mr.. Daniels transmitted let
ters from Admiral Benson, chief OF
naval operations, and Rear Admiral
Palmer, chief of the bureau of navi-
CATION, showing in detail why this in-
crease in necessary.
The correspondence revealed that
new warships are being turned out
faster than they can be manned with
the present limited personnel and that
should there be a change in naval tao
tics and the nation be forced to q de-
fensive instead of an offensive fight,
the navy would be seriously handicap
ped in handling the fleet against an
enemy.
should Make Up Shortage.
Admiral Palmer said in his letter
that shortage of officers OF higner
grade should be made up, pointing oit
that American destroyers now are op-
Grating in the war zone without q
designated commander other than the
British officer, Admiral Bayley. The
submarine chaser force in foreign wa
ters is commanded by captain, the
admiral said, whereas there should be
at least one rear admiral, and pref
erably two for this force.
The two American divisions OF ar
mored cruisers also are without nag
officer and there is no flag officer
for the division of uperdreadnoughts
which will be added to the navy with
in a year. Admiral Palmer also point
ed out that the admirals and vice ad-
mirals in command of American fleets
should have rear admirals as chiefs
of staff.
Merely to man our fleet properly
and to make our war organization ef-
ficient," Admiral Palmer's letter said,
I'VE must have imme ediately twenty
seven additional rear admirals, and
by July /, 1919, six more, in addition
to those we have now"
Admiral Palmer said that specifi-
cally 42,i46 men will be needed to
man the warships which will be
turned out during the next fiscal year
ending July /, 1919. This force he di-
yided as. follows.
How F'prce Is 10 Be Divided.
For battleships. 400; destroyers,
29,9e2; patrol boats, $500; sea-going
tugs, 3,7O5: submarines. 1926; fleet

tion ships. etc, 553.
On last April 1, he wrote S3.475
men were required for the permanent
navy as follows:
On battleships, 33,34S: cruisers

Admiral Palmer disclosed interest
ing figures as TO the number of Amer
lean destroyers operating In the war
zone and those to be sent during the
next year, together with the number
OF submarine chasers now overseas or

mittee on public information, asked
newspapers not to publish these de-
tails.
In his letter pointing out the neces-
sity for the increased personnel, Ad-
miral Benson said the navy was han
dicapped by lack of sufficient Off
GERS, and that it could not operate
successfully with less than the 131,4
enlisted personnel requested of con.

 VERIFIED PROMOTION
FORMER ARIZONA MAN GIVEN MAJORITY AND THEN LIEUTEN- ANT-coLoNELcY ON ACCOUNT OF MERIT OF HIS WORK ON FIGHTING FRONT IN FRANCE

W. H. BrOphy. always eager and happy to speak good word or do good turn for some one else, writes from Paris to the editor of the Review under date of November , telling of the promotion to lieutenant colonel of E. Power Conway. an Arizona man. who had his headquarters at Phoenix before the war. Colonel Conway went to France a year ago with the rank of captain and was promoted to major. He had charge of organizing aRd CO., ordinating the transportation of sup plies from seaport to the front trenches. Later he served on the gen eral staff and was finally given charge of roads and light railways at the front. His fine success and tremend- ous energy at this work resulted in his last promotion to a lieutenant-col- onelcy. We are proud of him." writes MT. Brophy, "and trust the Review will give prominence to his success Best regards to all in the district. Hope to see you next year"
Bisbee daily review., 1918-12-08
Night Message
 Rate Is LOUered

While other sections of the coun- try have always had the restriction. Arizona has never had the benefit of night message rates except to com paratively nearly points. This has now been corrected by Postmaster General Burleson, who has ordered that effective January l a universal system of night messages at greatly reduced rates shall obtain in all parts of the country. Manager Henderson of the local Western Union office ad- vises that under the new schedule of night message rates the people Of the Arizona will have a rate as low as 50 cents for messages of ten words to New York City and other places on the Atlantic seaboard with an added charge of only two cents per word for additional words. To Chicago where the night message rate has been 50 cents and four cents for each addi- tional word the new tariff is only 45 cents plus two cents for additional words, while corresponding reductions are made throughout the system. To nearby points the minimum rate is re- duced from 25 cents to 20 cents
 There is very large and constant ly increasing need for quick com municatiOn across the continent which this new system of short overnight letters at cheap rates is well desig- mated to meet. It should prove a great boon to business interests of Arizona, by bringing them into close touch with all parts of the country at a very low cost.
