the last words of Nicholas ROmanOff,
former Car of Russia, as he faced a
firing squad voiced a plea for his fami-

formerly ruled.
"Spare my wife and my innocent,

rifemen.
Then he added: MAY my blood pre-
serve Russia from ruin.'

TEUToN ACTIVITIES

In the face Of impending military ac-
tiVities of Japan and the United States
in Siberia, the German influence in the
vast Russian territory is making every
effort to head of the progress Of the
Czecho -Slavak army, to assist which o
joint American-Japanese expedition haa
been proposed by the former and ac-
cepted by the latter. The trans-Sibe-
rian railway is destroyed, ut many
points and released German and Aus
trian prisoners of war are being quick
ly organized into an army to make some
resistance. Besides these things being
done, the Germans are desperately en-
gagged in radical movement looking
for an Immediate disruption of Russia
to make the situation in that country
more tangled and helpless.
RESIGNATION WITHDRAWN
General Uyehara s resignation as the
chief of general staff of the japanese
army, which was presented a few days
ago, has been Withdrawn at the in.
stance of General Prince Yamagata,
one of the two remaining "genro" or
elder statesmen. General Uyehara has
reronsidered his action and decided to
remain at the head of the general staff
to direct Japan s military activities in
the present crisis in Siberia.

Why Accidents Come To
Young Auiators in Practice

Dallas, Texas, May 4.-There is
a reason for every aviation accident.
Sometimes it is an obvious one,
bur too often only the dead flyer
ever knew just what sent his ma
chine crashing to the ground.
Up to the middle of April there
had been SO fatalities in the six Tex
IS aviation camps and in many OF
the accidents that caused them no
one knew just what unexpected con-
dition, just what weakness in man
or material had developed high in
the air. Fort Worth with its three
aviation fields and its preponder-
ance Of flyers training under the
British officers i'll the Royal Fly
ing Corps had 40 deaths up to
April II; Houston was next with
10.
Crashes may be due to misappli-
cation of rules, unfamiliarity with
peculiar aerial conditions, faulty
material in the airplane, sudden
fright seizing the aviator or mere
rccklessness.
In flying there are no brakes to
apply. The pilot must be alert and
ready for any emergency. A plane
Just leaving the field has the ad-
vantage over a plane about to land
in an impending disaster. The land
ing plane is going much faster than
the one just "revved up The pilot
:p,t starting up must be careful not
to misjudge his start and thus be
cvcrtaken by a plane that is pow
eIless to avoid the crash.
How to Avoid Collisions.
Machines passing in the same di-
recton should have an interval OF
AT least 200 yards to insure safety
against collisions. When they are
passing over and under, they must
pass at distance of at least so
yards and those approaching head
The Daily Ardmoreite. [volume] (Ardmore, Okla.) 1893-current, 1918-05-05

on pass must have at least lSt
yards between them.
One OF the most common reasons
for accidents, as given by instruc-
tors, is disobedience of orders. Al
certain height and going al cer-
tain well defined speed, so many
loops or dives or whatever maneu-
yer is to be adopted, may be made
with safety. If the aviator disre-
CARDS the laws of mathematics in
which he has been drilled and un-
dertakes one more loop, the conse-
quences may prove fatal.
Landing i'll cross wind is highly
dangerous. 1t frequently causes the
plane to turn completely over and
pins the pilot underneath the heavy
engine.
There have been numerous deaths,
flight commanders say, from pilots
losing their nerve. The driver
finds he has lost control OF his en-
ginc, makes frantic effort to right
the plane, fails the first time, lapses
INTO Inconsistencies and the plane
fails to earth at such terrific speed
that the aviator is dead before he
reaches the ground.
During their periods of instruc-
tion, cadets about to fly ara given
strict course to follow i'll the air.
The location i'll which some air
planes have failed indicated that the
cadets, once up in the air disre-
>.arded their instructions and fol-
low their own sweet will. Accord
ing TO the rules of the air ii each
plane has kept its course, under nor
NAL conditions, collision with anoth-
er plane is not possible.

some OF the hazards and duties Of

he gets his first ride aloit. After
few trips he does "solo,' that is,
goes up alone, the most important
part of his training. Next he flies
in formation and then on cross
country trips where he is compelled
to land guided only by maps and
instruments. Then comes his high
er development with machine gun
fire and other special training which
increases his usefulness as one OF
the "eyes of the army"
Officers commanding the Texas
camps, while deploring the fatalities
that have accompanied the training
OF Uncle Sans flyers, say that, in
comparison with the number OF
men who have been trained and be-
come expert, the total is surpris-
ingly small.

TERRITORIAL SCHOOLS ARE
 PROGRESSIVE

That Alaska schools are as wide awake in the "win-the-war" movement as they are in taking all other progress sive steps is indicated in the follow ing briefs from Commissioner Tender sons Alaska School Bulletin" They also record some other interesting news about the Territorial schools:
 Thrift clubs have been organized in each room of the Wrangell schools ard the Marshall Method of Thrift Training" is being introduced for use in the upper elementary grades. Both the Juneau and Fairbanks schools are at present using the method.
 Ninety-three pupils in the Fairbanks schools own $50 Liberty bonds. As further evidence of pathriotic Ameri- canism the pupils of the Fairbanks schools recently collected, washed, hemmed and bleached 534 dish towels for the use of the American army at Camp Lewis, American Lake, Wash ington.
 The net proceeds of recent en. tertainment given ythe pupils of the Skagway schools were S111. Of this sum, 10 per cent was set aside for the Junior Red Cross organization. A secondhand sewing machine, for the use of the domestic science depart ment, and Victrola, together with several records for the same, were pur- chased with the remainder.
 The Ketchikan schools enrolled 230 pupils, the largest enrolment in the history of the city. A Spanish club, meeting once a month and with pro- grams rendered entirely in Spanish, has been organized among members of the Spanish class.

FL PASO, Texas, Jan. 3O.-High- heeled cowboy boots, chaps and ten gallon hats" have replaced shoes of English lasts, pinchback suits and golf caps as the wearing apparel of the majority of recruits who are accepted at the local army recruiting station for service in the American Liberty army.
 The rush of the city boys and young men to join the colOrs is sHmost over according to the officer in charge of the station. But the news that the United States needed her young men has just begun to percoIate to the iso- lated COW camps, ranches and mining districts of the Southwest The re- suit was a rush of applicants for en- listment from these sparsely settled districts of the Southwest.
 When given their choice of branches in which they wished to serve, the men invariably ask for assignment to the cavalry division as they shoot from the saddle and never walk when they can ride. But when they are told the cavalry will not be sent abroad as soon as the other branches they almost in variably change their requests and ask

 While the newly-issued volumes of coast pilots reviewed above contain new information that is useful to the naVigators of the waters of the Pacific coast of continental United States, and of Alaska, the charts and coast pilots of this bureau do not contain all the information they should, owing to the fact that we have not the facilities for making the requisite surveys and ob- servations."
