IN WAR WILL Be
FULLY REALIZED
Day of Errors Now Over,
Says French Aviator After
Visit to U.S..
(By Associated Press,


PARIS, July Slopes founded on
American aerial aid to the Allies soon
will be realized. says Captain Her.
teaux. the famous French aviator, who
has just returned from visit to the
United States in q statement to The
Associated Press. Both American
pilots and American machines are
coming over seas in large numbers.
The captains statement follows:
I'VE now have several thousand
American pilots in France. They have
arrived after adequate training so they
have only to put the finishing touches
to the already sound instructions.
I'VE have not sufficient chaser planes
to mount all these pilots but the ma
chimes are being manufactured more
quickly than the pilots can complete
their training. 1t Is certain that Amer
lea alone within a few months will
be able to more than supply all its
aviators with machines.
America still has something to
learn In the construction OF chaser
planes but progress is being shown
every day. The Liberty motor now Is
ready and machines fitted with 1t are
being turned out rapidly. The Amert-
can bonn bardment airplaues are Of the
finest quality and they are reaching
the front regularly.
THE day Of errors in which we had
our share IL now over. The hopes
which public opinion founded on Amer
lean aviation soon will bs realized"

Hun War Head "Regrets"
Promise Concerning War
Prisoners Is Not Kept
fBv Associated Press.)

AMSTERDAM. Monday July s.
During a debate on the budget in the
German Reichstag on Friday, says the
Cologne Gazette, Gen. Won Stein, the
Prussian minister Of war, said:
prisoners returned from Russia at
any time are re-employed in the army
The position is different with ex-
changed prisoners from Great Britain
and France, regarding which prisoners
we accepted conditions under which
such employment is impossible.
"a few men have reported that
while in Russia they signed attesta-
ton to the British and French Off
Gals that they could not be employed
at the front Those are tricks of En-
tente agents in which we do not &C.
quiesce. l regret that frequently far
reaching promises have been made
which afterward lead to all kinds of
complaints when under the pressure
of necessity they are not kept"

PLAN EXPANSION
Of RICHMOND ARMY
CAMP TO 500 men

Plans for bringing 600 men to the
Richmond Commercial club training
detachment were discussed Monday
afternoon at a meeting Of special
committee, composed of Howard A..
Dill. George E. Seidel and J. r. Giles.
A special message from Washington
was received asking il it would be
possible to accommodate 500 more
men. Since report was due in
Washington before July 10. 1t was
necessary to begin plans Immediately.
X. u. Carmen, present supervisor
OF the camp, compiled figures and
drew up plans which he laid before
tho committee 1t will be necessary
for the government to put $4,000 at
the disposal of the Commercial club,
in order to take care of so many more
men. Five two-story army barracks
of wood construction would have to
be built. 1t is thought that the land
opposite the training camp can be Sc
cured
II is estimated that 900 men would
spend $4,000 in Richmond In a year,
and with that which would be spent
by the Commercial club would total
$262, 900.
It would be several months before
the men could be installed.
Mr.. Carmen stated that it is neces-
sary to make the present camp sue
cess before anything greater is at
tempted He said that as yet the plan
was very indefinite.
Nothing more will be done until the
committee has heard from Washing
ton.
