WASHINGTON, May 23.-News Of
the death of Ensign Stephen Potter,
naval reserves, who was killed while
fighting seven enemy, single-seated air
planes in the North Sea on April 25.

don representative of the committee
on public Information.
Ensign Potter, who was second pilot
to a British Royal Flying force cap
tain. six weeks before had shot down
a German seaplane in Heligoland
blight.
The story of Potters encounter with
the enemy says:
Potter left the North Sea station in
a British seaplane and steered due
east until six miles west-southwest-
north of Hinder light. Another plane
accompanied Potter and kept position
to starboard throughout the action.
Two enemy planes were sighted to
port, heading towards them flying low.
Both British planes dived about 100
years apart, closing in upon the near
est German.
Fire opened from both at close
range.
Two More Appear.
"Potter's companion had emptied
one drum from the forward cockpit
when the gun damned. Two more hos
tile planes then appeared overhead,
attacking vigorously Both Britons
turned to the west. pursuing one of the
lower enemy, who was soon lost to
view. Three others past astern, fol-
lowing at a sharp angle. Potter was
close above his companion and dove
to within 100 feet of the water
Both machines fattencd out and
Potter's companion, being faster,
throttled down until Potter was
abreast. Thus they ran westward at
full speed close together for several
minutes under continuous volleys from
the rear
-Four more enemy machines now
appeared in v formation. OF seven
Germans in action four were attack
ing Potter and the others his COM
panion. Potter fell behind and began
to zigzag. He first veered slightly
starboard, then turned at right angle
to port.
Again his companion throttled
down to let him catch up, and began
climbing to reduced Roadway. Potter
lodged again, but was then broad
side to all enemy machines and under
their fire only fifty feet from the
water. His companion, ESQ feet above,
saw Potter's machine burst in flames,
come down part of the way under
control, then crash on the port wing

Concerning Potter's brave conduct
and his eagerness to engage with the
enemy, the commanding officer Of thu

These conclusions, if fair and just of
only those engaged the packing business but

The figures given profits misleading and the statement
that the packers have monopoly unsupported by the facts
The packers mentioned in the report stand ready prove
their profits reasonable and necessary.

Any citizen who would amiarize himself with details
be prepared for large totals
The report states that the aggregate profits of four large
packers were $1400000OO for the three years.
This compared with 81 100000 the average annual
profit for the three years before the war; making appear that
the profit $2l 100000 greater than the prear profit
This compares threeyear profit with oneyear pro6ta

but the Federal Trade Commission apparently has made mistake
in the figures themselves.
The aggregate hreeear profit was earned
on sales of over four and half billion dollars about
three cents on each dollar fraction of per
pound of product.
Packers profits are negligible factor prices of live stock
and No other large business conducted upon such small
margins Of profit.
Furthermore this is very important only small por-
