speaker OF the day was w. P. Pollock

DESTRUCTION Of

Berlin Paper Suggests the
Wrecking of 400 Towns
and Defends Barbarism.

Amsterdam. Holland. March 10
The destruction Of 400 English towns
by German airplanes is demanded by
the Berlin Tages Zeitung "as a repri-
sar' for the action Of the allies in con-
.fiscating 400 German merchant ships.
In a long article on the subject the
paper says;
IF we are in a position to destroy
the whole Of London, it would be more
humane to do so than to allow one
more German to bleed to death on the
battlefield. To hesitate or surrender
ourselves 10 feelings of pity would
be objectionable.
More than 400 merchant ships have
been stolen from US by Great Britain.
Our answer should be that for every
German ship at least one English
town should be reduced to ruins by
our airmen.
Far better were it for US that
Great Britain, France and the United
States should call US barbarians than
that they should bestow on us Their
pity when we are beaten. Softness
and sentimentality are stupid in war
time"

nUentS Motor
That VIII Fly
Upside Dozen
Canutillo Man, Offers US
New Type Of Engine
For Airplanes.

Earl ". Murphy Of Canutlllo. Tex,
was in FL Paso Tuesday afternoon
showing drawings Of a "a cylinder,
u piston gasoline motor he has sub
mitted to Washington for the purpose
of securing a patent. with a view to
assisting in equipping airplanes Of
the United States for war. The plans
for the new motor. which Mr.. Murphy
SAYS he would like to call the vic
tory contemplate a new departure
in gasoline motors, from the fact that
it will apply power to both ends Of
the dozen pistons, instead Of at one
end, as the generally used automo-
bile and airplane motor does. The
action Of the motor, Mr.. Murphy
claims, will be similar to that or a
steam engine in this particular.
Another feature the inventor claims
for the Victory" motor is that it will
give power whether right side up or
inverted. 1t has no crankcase, the
crank shaft running between the
cylinders, all enclosed It viii have
six connecting rods, each connecting
with four cylinders.
Mr.. Murphy. who is the Son Of Mrs
W. r. Baker, lived in FL Paso with
his mother several years. He intends
taking the examination for an avia-
ton pilots license at the Curtiss
school, Miami, Fla.
