 the loss of a few men in training should stir the public to believing that care lessness has had its part in causing the losses.
 The machine a pilot begins on is safer than each succeeding machine he is taught to handle and it is significant to note just what training will do for
 the flyer. For instance, the casualties
 for the most part come when the pilot is operating the largest and safest planes. Few casualties are recorded of the light CT and faster types. which are exceed ingly hard to handle and susceptible to the least wrong move on the part of the pilot.
 Considering that in practice there is practically the same danger element as
 there is in flying at the front, the per

 An Aviation Camp in France, May 4. tCorrespondence of the Associated Press.) criticism in one American newspaper of the American air. service on the ground that there has been an unneces- sarily large number of accidents has evoked a retort from Plane News, pub Ished by the American aviators in train- ing here
 Records show. says the aviators' organ that about 60 men made the supreme sacrifice last year while in training One American newspaper, it asserts, has endeavored to account for these fatali- ties as having been caused by "cramped space" which the men have to fly in. anI has asked whether "the supervision of our aviation camps is in the hands of officers who know their business
 Only a small percentage of the fatal- ities have been caused by collision and other causes were of various nature which were beyond any government con trol,' says Plane News. The majority Of instruction centers have outlying fields where men in the various stages in training are confined
 'The officers in charge are as eo,n- petent as can be had. Many are West Point men of long military training and nearly all nave become expert aviators themselves. They know. if anybody ever will, the dangers of flying and the necessary precautions to take.
 Tight places" are bound to confront every pilot in the course of his training and are the finest examples in the world II the aviator is able to navigate the danger with success, for it gives him the needed confidence for similar experi- erces in the future. Safe flying is largely matter Of intuition. which sense can only be required through constant prac- tice of long duration.

President Will sons assurance that the United States entertains no desire of this kind, hop ing only for amity between our own citizens and those of Mexico and look ing for the time when there will be restored peaceful internal conditions in Mexico, will, it is believed be of the utmost advantage so far as enabling Mexican citizens to obtain an accurate idea of the real purposes and disposi- ton where the United States is con cerned.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York June 1Spectal) Many reports are current that the few tenders probable on July will be taken up by several southern houses. Never theless there was the usual local liqui- dation in July for fear the tenders might be greater than anticipated. There is every probability of relief from the hot wave in Texas with scattered showers in the northern part of the state. The strength of the mar l<et in face of good crop advices, is largely due to the belief that the sit uation in Europe is more favorable to the allies and that under this inn pression there will be no pressure on the market

THE GERMAN INFLUENCE

In some of the published reports the statement has been made that there is TO considerable German propaganda or influence in Mexico. In reply to this statement, however, it is privately said that the Carranza administration has taken control of all the banks in Mex ieo City excepting the one which is controlled by German capital. That has been left alone There has been no interffrence with it's business. Justly or unjustly Carranza himself is sus- pected of leaning strongly in sympathy toward Germany while the great body of the Mexican citizens are not pro- German, many of them, at heart at least, being very friendly to France
 Undoubtedly President Wilson has learned that some of the published statements are not in accord with the privately expressed views respecting the conditions in Mexico But it is ad- mitted by all that the brief address that President Wilson made to the Mexican editors, which will be widely circulated in Mexico, will have great influence in changing an opinion which has prevailed, and it is reported has

The Birmingham age-herald., 1918-06-23

go so far as to say that no permanent internal improvement can be estab- lished until Carranza and his admin istration and methods are eliminated. Views of this kind, however. are ex- pressed privately, even confidentiallS5 at least so far as the identity of those who give these opinions is con cerned.
 In order to substantiate their opin- ion of Carranza and his methods vari-
 ous incidents that have occurred un-
 der his administration have been spoken of in much detail. For instance
 a Mexican citizen who is man of in- tegrity and of influence said to a 1 warm personal friend in New York this
 morning that he could give one or two examples which would best illustrate Carranza's methods. He said that short 1 ly after Carranza had established him. ] self in Mexico City his administration
 caused the property of many citizens i to be conhscated.
 i The reason alleged for this action was
 that the citizens were not loyany sup porting the Carranza administration
 and were in secret league against it 1 This Mexican said that 152 houses ir | the heart of Mexico City had been taken
 over by the Carranza administration | Everything in these houses was con | fiscated. There remained not the slight est item of household furniture, and jewels. family heirlooms. silverware
 and other valuables were seized.

a COnSlOeTaple uunDer or ITOpS QnQer his control For this service the oper- ating companies pay a satisfactory sum to the Mexican officer. It is not regarded as blackmail. It is looked upon as just payment for adequate service.
 Great Britain relies to a considerable a extent for her oil supplies upon these Mexican wells. If for any cause the ex : port of oil from Mexico should be ended Great Britain would be seriously em- barrassed The apprehensions are strong that the Carranza administra- tion is about to make serious attempt to overthrow the Mexican officer and his little army which he controls, whose services have so far been successful in protecting the oil region. In fact it is reported privately that skirmishes have already begun between Carranza !, troops and those under the command of the officer who is protecting the oil region. Therefore it is surmised that the Carranza administration hopes by | the force of numbers to gain posses sion of the oil territory. If that were I done then the administration would probably put an export tax upon the
 oil so high as practically to amount to an embargo upon the export Reports
 of this kind that have been communi-
 cated by responsible Mexican citizens
 to their friends in New York tend to
 increase the apprehension that it may
 be inevitable in order to protect Eng
 fish and American capital invested in
 the oil regions, to send to those re- gionS English and American forces

A considerable part of this property was landed at Houston, Tex, and all of it was sold Some of 1t com manded high prices. The aggregate money received for the sale of these commodities and for articles taken from public buildings was, according to this man, approximately $30. 900, GOO. What use was made of this money after it reached Mexico City is unknown. Very likely it was deposited in the Mex ican treasury.
