 Chicago, May 25. Weekend cover ing ht shorts ran up prices sharp ly today in the corn market. Sellers meanwhile were scarce owing to fresh rains likely to delay the com- pletion of planting. Reports that the government had placed unusually large orders for alcohol and tended to stimulate demand for corn, notwith- standing with careful inquiry failed to confirm the reports. Opening prices, which ranged from oS cents to Is cents higher, with June not quoted, and July $1.41 1-2 to $1.42. were followed by additional gains.
 Toward the end of the session. ner- vousness over new government reeula- tions in regard to hedging caused a rapid downturn in prices. The close was heavy 1 to 1-4 not lower, with June $1,37 1-2 and July S1.39 5-S to $139 34.
 Oats hardened in sympathy with corn After opening IS cents to 'o-S cents higher, with July SC 77S to 67 cents. the market rose little more, and then began to sag.
 An upward slant in provisions ap' peared to be duo to the strength Of grain,
 Later the market underwent a dc cided setback as a result Of increas' ed offerings of land.

 But Davidc had other ideas, hc did not intend to be a privileged little brother but wanted to get in the ranks and be a combatant. He took part in several assaults and developed re- markably expert ability in throwing hand grenades. As specialist he was in the very forefront of these famous fighters
 "l tried to give him d regular stat us in the ranks as a soldier" said Gen eral Sani, "but there has been diff culty in accomplishing it thus far"
 There will be no more difficulty" said the Premier, touched by the story of the boys courage and ability. "l ask you to retain him in the twcn. ty-first Assault battalion, as from this moment l adopt the boy as enc of my sons." Il
 And the long line of seasoned vet step forward and put his hand on the shoulder of the pale-faced boy.
 "Davide,' said the Premier, "you are new as one of my sons. expect q letter from you every month. Your position in the ranks is secure and l will see to your future. Meanwhile fight for Italy and be brave."
 And again the seasoned ranks stood at attention as the Ppime Minister of Italy bent over, and in the pres cncc of the whole battalion kissed the boy soldier on the forehead, and then passed along.

DAVID LLOYD GEORGE
 PRAISES RED CROSS
Cables His Appreciation of What the Organization Has Done for the
 Soldiers of the Allies

Soldiers Of the Allies
 St. Louis, May 25.-The American Red Cross, through Henry P. Davi- son, Chairman of the War Council, has made public cablegram address sed to Ambassador Page from David Lloyd George, Prime Minister of England, as follows:
 "I feel sure that 1 am only echoing the thought of many in this country in writing you word of grateful appreciation of what the American Red Cross has done in this war. Not only has it made munificent dona tions to the fund of cur own Red Cross, but it was one of the first Am erican organizations to begin to serve humanity in this war.
 "The work it has done not only in succoring the wounded, but in shelter ing the starving women and children in all the countries stricken by the war, is beyond all computation. From the moment of the massacre in Ser via it's work has grown like the mus tard seed until it is now one of the greatest institutions in the world.
 "In extending it's operations to cov- CT new responsibilities which will fall upon it's through the active participa- tion of the American army in the war, I wish it all possible success. am sure that the resources of mercy and generosity will prove inexhaustible."

HOW IHt BRITONS PICK OUT STAR
 AIR FIGHTERS
24- Year Old Men in Perfect Physical Condition Are
 Chosen.

London May 25.--IloW docs the British Air service plck out from it's thousands of airmen, the particular men who are destined to become the star lighters" at the frGnt? This question was put to an official cf the Air Ministry here by the Associated Press correspondent in an interview. Here is his answer
 "The pilot who is destined to fly the single scater machines of the Air forces is discovered almost as soon as he has been baptized in the air.
 "Te begin with, he must have pass ed certain physical tests with hun dred per cent result. Many wise men. doctors and organizers, sit in conclave over these tests. They define certain factors that go to make up perfect airman--perfect sight, age 24 or it's equivalent in physical make up, a to- tai abstainer good hands, qt;ick brain, keeness, confidence It is odd how much emphasis is placed on a mans hands by the examiners. who argue that there is as much difference be tween flying a scout and an ordinary machine as there is between riding a thoroughbred and cart-house.
 Some men show their destiny from the first moment of training. Men like Ball and Bishop promise well right from the start; they revel in finding new stunts and tricks of their own, long before their heaver-handed brethren begin to attempt the things that are safe on all modern machines.
 "Other men begin slowly, and find themselves through sheer pluck and hard work. Having gone over tho Channel to pilot placid artillery ob- servation or photographic machine. they are given a good account of themselves in the first scrap they get mixed up in, and thereafter they look for, and seem to enjoy, fights. An observer in his official report casually remarks that Pilot So-and-so is al ways wanting to tackle the Huns in stead of taking photographs or rang ing guns and straightway his com manding officer sends the trouble hunter off 10 heaquarters with a rec ommendation which lands him in a special post graduate school or aerial gunnery for training in what the air men call 'firereatns.'
 'Here he meets the men-aces they call them in France-who have been fighting in single-seaters, and who i: e resting or have been seit back for use as instructors. The public knows little about these ostgraduate schools for young eagles; the work is intensive and thorough; the science I'of air-fighting is taught by stages up

to degree of perfection almost un- believable
 ITO the airmen wnO fights such things as tactics and deflection rang es and sights, must come by instinct. The good fighting man. it is generally believed, is born. not made. He must have the quick brain that will direct the hands with the judgment of eX- perience He must have keenness, and also luck. He must love 'thc game although it is not necessary that he should have been sportsman. or a yachtman or a racing motorist in his pre-War days.
 "It is the general opinion among pilots that a scout fighter who has completed month on the western front has passed through his prOba- tiOn and will be good for long time unless bad luck or the laws of chance bring him down.
