ter from the commanding general,
First army corps, of July %, 1918.
To your success, all ranks and all
services have contributed, and / de-
sire to express to every man in the
command my appreciation of his de-
voted and courageous effort.
However, our position places a
burden of responsibility upon US
which we must strive to bear steadily
forward without faltering. To our
comrades who have fallen, we owe
the sacred obligation Of maintaining
the reputation which they died to
establish The influence of our per
Torrance on our allies and our enc

show the world that Americans can

Hard battles and long campaigns
lie before u.s. Only by ceaseless
vigilance and tireless preparation can
we fit ourselves for them. l urge
you, therefore, to approach the fu

with firm determination that so far

no effort, whether in training or In
combat, to maintain the record OF
our division and the honor OF our

MACHINE TESTS
FITNESS OF j. s.
AVIATOR CADETS
Contrivance To Test Ability
OF Men To Stand High AL
titudes In Use At Camp.

TBy Associated Press to The Bannerl
FORT WORTH, Tex, June S--By a
"rebreathing machine" here, the first
of its kind to be established by the
United States government or any of
its allies anywhere, aviators flying un-
der the Stars and Stripes henceforth
will be classified according to their
ability to thrive in high altitude.
The machine is in a research lab
oratory at Barron aviation field, and Is
in charge of Lieutenant G. II. Hanson,
F.. w. Thomas and James Blair, who
arrived in Forth Worth, recently from
sensations of ascending and descend
ing and has been in use by the German
air service, 1t is said, for FIVE years.
Henceforth, no pilot from any of
the local fields will be assigned to ac-
tive duty overseas until he has passed
the tests of the contrivance and been
classified according to his ability to
Withstand altitude fatigue. Experience
has taught that many air casualties
are due to this fatigue. One man will
be so affected that he will faint. An.
other will go along with his flying me-
chanically and with his mind so dulled
that he cannot plan or execute an at
tack on an enemy. Still another will
become stupid and his nerves will
not react to the excitement of battle.
The pilots will be divided into three
classes. In the first class will be plac.
ed airmen who are never affected by
altitude fatigue and who car ascend
and fight anywhere their planes will
mount.
In the next class will be those whose
mental faculties are dulled by high al.
titude.
And in the last, or third, will be
those who faint under the stress.
