Special Despotch to The srS.


WASHINGTON, Sept. ~. - Benedict

a letter to Chairman Chamberlain OF
the. Senate Military Committee to-day

Department to the proposed creation of
a special department of the air to be
an executive ONCE OF Cabinet grade. as
provided in a bill recently introduced

Mr.. Crowell said:
AS far as the War Department Is
concerned the organization of a de-
partment of the air separate from the
War Department and contemplating
military activities not under the con-
troll OF the Secretary Of War, Ia believed
to be essentially wrong in principle.
THE President has nominated and
the Senate confirmed the appointment
Of Secretary John d. Ryan Second As
sistant Secretary Of War, who is direc-
tor Of the air service for the War De-
partment. 1t Is believed that the es-
sential points aimed At in the bill in
question are covered in the best pos
sible manner
The members Of the Military Com
mittee. although DESTROYS Of divorcing
the aircraft programme as far as pos
sible from even the supervisory control
of Secretary Baker. are unlikely to push
tho bill with the knowledge Of ultimate
veto confronting them.

Tribes Nearly Destroyed.

In the resulting. rebellions the Hereros
were reduced from eighty thousand to
hfteen thousand one hundred, the Hot
tentots from. twenty thousand to nine
thousand eight hundred and the Berg
Damaras from thirty thousand to twelve
thousand eight hundred. Thus so per
cent. of the Herero people disappeared
and more than half of the Hottentots
and Berg -Damaras shared the same fate
How 1t was done was to supersede the
lenient Gov. Leutwein by the notorious
Gov. Trotha fresh from Germany to East
Africa. where he suppressed the Arab
rebellion by wholesale massacre Gov.
Trotha issued an determination order"

GERMAN BRUTALITY
IN AFRICA PROVED
Great Britain Shows Unfitness
for Return of Colonies.

LONDON, Sept. IA report contain-
ng evidences OF the brutal methods en-
ployed by Germany In the administration
Of her colonies in Africa. was made pub
&c to-day by Edmond II. L. Gorgcs. acting
Secretary Of the Interior, Union OF South
Africa. 1t constitutes the British Gov
ernment's reply to DR.. W. 8. Solf, the
German. Secretary of State for the
Colonies, that Germany would demand
the return OF her colonies at the peace
conference.
The report constitutes an indictment
tive OF Africa. The evidence Is taken
from official German documents at
Windhoek. from sworn statements by
native chiefs and by Europeans familiar
with the country and from the writings
of Gov. Leutwein, who held once from
1894 to 1906: DR.. Paul Rohrback. Or.
Karl Dove and others. Altogether the
report refutes in detail DR.. Soils asser-
ton that "Germany's pre-war humane
treatment OF the native races won for
her the moral right to be a great colonial
power
Unbroken Record of Bad Faith.
THE native opinion is unanimously
against any idea Of their ever being
handed back to the tender nSercies OF
Germany" says acting Secretary Gorges
ANY suggestion OF the possibility of an
act Of this !kind on the part OF Great
Britain PRODUCES the utmost cons.erna-
tion."
The report shows that the first twenty
five years Of German rule in Southwest
Africa was an unbroken record OF OFFICIAL
bad faith, private oppression. cruelty.
barba rites and robberies, eliminating in
the Herero and Hottentot rebellions.
During the first seventeen years there
was no law for the natives. Such pro-
lection as the law eventually provided
indicated considerations of humanity,
but the order to exploit the natives as
laborers remained
When the Germans first arrived, says
the report. they entered into agreements
with the native chiefs. but these became
scraps OF paper and the natives were
fraudulently deprived OF their best land.
Traders and settlers robbed them OF their
cattle, which was their only wealth. and
the law subsequently prevented the ma
tives from possessing large herds o,
stock The natives were thus driven 10
work at ridiculously inadequate wages
and often never were paid. They were
treated like slaves and their women folk
we're habitually maltreated by the Ger
mans. who took them into forced con-
, cubinage.

SERBIAN OFFICER VISITS PHOENIX IN
 RECRUITING WORK

Stopping over for few days on his way to Jerome and other parts of Ar izona recruiting men for his govern ment's army, First Lieutenant Vucich of the Serbian Infantry told an inter- esting story of his mission in this country. He has. just finished recruit ing in Globe and Miami where he was successful in getting 45 men to enlist.
 Lieutenant Vucich is one of 20 re- cruiting officers operating for the Serbian government throughout the United States, with headquarters in San Francisco. Up to date. this group of men have recruited 10000 Slavs for their government, which, indeed, indi- cated good work for they have only been operating since 1916. Lieutenant Nucich has, however, only been iden- tified with the recruiting service for the past three months, before that sec | ing active service on the Saloniki | front
 Serbia is not recruiting alone in he United States but throughout the world, 36,00O volunteers having been secured from Italy and 33.000 from Russia. The total number of recruits secured up to this time is some 1S0,000 men. These volunteers go to Africa for their. uniforms and their prelimi- nary training, then to France for their final training and finally are posted on the Saloniki front.
 1 Until IS years of age, Lieut.. Nucich was a student in his native education al institutions, in 1912 entering the ar my of his country. He has seen good deal of active service, having served for two years in the Balkan war, and for four years in the present great conflict However, unusual good fortune attended Lieut.. Vucich, for he was only wounded slightly three times and hardly carries the scars as a me- mento
 Relative to the bravery and fighting ability of the Serbian army. Lieut. Vu- cich related the incident in which he participated, of a regiment of Serbian infantry, consisting of 5000 men, cap Turing 1000 Austrians in a four day battle on the Drina river, in October of 1914
 It is Lieut.. Vucichs firm conviction that the Austro German forces never would have succeeded in occupying
 Serbia if it hadn't been for the Bulgar-
 ians, who attacked the Serbians in the
 rear, forcing them to retreat over the
 Albanian Alps. outnumbered five to
 one. This retreat over the mountains
 was a marvel of courage and endur-
 ance, for there were no trails or roads
 and the Serbians had no pack animals
 or trucks: however they made the tre-
 mendous climb. each man carrying his
 food and supplies on his back, though
 it took them the better part of a
 month to get over the range.
 Following this successful retreat. the
 Austro- Hungarian government offered Itln SprhiaDS a ne1cpful rptllrr1 and Of,
 equation of their country in return foi ' ceasing to participate in the war, but the Serbians refused these tempting terms to be loyal to the Allies and tc continue operations against the con- mon enemy. In conclusion, Lieut.. Vucich stated that the Serbian cause is intimately interWoven with that of the Allies, anC that Serbia will be true to the Allies through thick add thin until final vic tory crowns their exertions.

4. REDEW|LL TELLS
 OF FRENCH NAMES

Practically everyone admits difficulty in pronouncing French names which come up so frequently in war reports and war conversations. A. Redewill has come to the scratch to assist the public in the following note to The Re publican
 q have lately been receiving so many inquiries insregard to the proper pro- nunciation of the names of the French generals that l should be glad to have little space to reply once for all.
 "Joffre is pronounced HZhaffr.' The 'Zh which I have put in to represent the French y is pronounced like the z in the English word azure Foch is pronounced 'Fosh.' Clemenceau is pronounced 'Clemm- ans so.' On which syllable is the accent? There is none. The French believe in equality and pro- nounce all their syllables equally.
 'phe name of the Italian general who lately gave such a warm reception to the Austrians, Diaz. is pronounced 'Dee-ass.' The Austrians do not now accentuate the second syllable.
 ''In order to articulate distinctly some of the Russian and Slavonic names you have to start with a hot potato in the mouth, grind the teeth, open the mouth as if about to pronounce the German word ia, then spit, sneeZe and cough, with a hop, skip and a jump, giving yourself whack with the fist at the back of the neck and imagining at the same time that you are punching the stuffing out of Hun. That is in my estimation the only effectual way to bring them out correctly
 Yours respectfully A. REDEWILL.

HUNDREDS IF MEN SEARCH HILLS FOR
 SLAYER OF LOWREY

With hundreds of men scattered throughout the country north and west of Jerome. organized in heavily armed posses, Sheriff Joseph H. Young of favapai, according 10 advices from Prescott last night, is slowly closing in on Bassito who is being hunted as the slayer of James Lowrey, former sheriff of Yavapai. at Verde Tuesday.
 Bassito, reported as either a Mexi- can or an Italian. who in a fight at Verde not only killed Lowrey but wounded three Mexicans. is said to be making his way due north from Cot tonwood, on foot, heavily armed with two large automatic revolvers.
 Shortly after the fight was reported 10 the Maricopa authorities advices from the Yavapai county sheriff was that Basstio had probably left Verde in q stolen Ford automobile, as a car had disappeared from the town at about that time.
 If Bassito did leave Verde in the Ford car he did not travel far, owing 10 the rough condition of the roads, according to advices from the north, and abandoned it and took to the mountains afoot.
 The country through which Bas- sito is believed to be travelling is one of the toughest in Arizona. and one considered hard in which to trail crim- inals. Bassito's objective, if travelling north, as the Yavapai sheriff believes is Williams, where it is believed he an- ticipates getting out of the country on railroad train.
 All trains coming into Maricopa county from the north, and all auto mobiles from the same direction have been watched by the local sheriff's or ganization and the Phoenix police The trains last night were boarded fai up the valley, a detachment of police having met what is known as the loca southbound at Glendale. The traiI was searched while in motion iron Glendale into Phoenix.
 So far as could he learned iron Prescott last night no reward had beer offered either by the county or by tho United Verde Extension mine, b, which Jim Lovrey was employed a. special officer when killed
 The three men who were wounded during the fight, were all removed t a hospital at Jerome where, accord ing to reports Tuesday night from Je rome it was found their wounds, whil serious. would not result in the deatl of any of them.
