MANY FLYERS,

U. S. PROBLEM
Graduates from Training
Camps May Be Sent
to Homes.

The War Department has several
thousand trained sviators on It's
hands and doesn't know what 20 DO
with them.
Almost daily commanders Of fly
ing schools in the South report that
more students have been graduated
and are ready 20 receive commits
sions and orders for service.
As the government has no ma
chimes for these men and sees no
hope for any great number in the
immediate future from the British
and French factories. II fs believed
that many of the volunteers will be
sent to their homes to await further
orders.
There are now In France about
three thousand American svistion
cadets. About one thousand have
been trained as flisrs, although
only a fraction of them are in active
flying service. The three thousand
men rushed to France for final
training on the French flying fields,
were the pick Of the men who vol
unteered. As affairs now stand
more men Of the second class are
NhoH VI INV
sion which was given every prom.
Use that they would see servict
first.
Within a few weeks practically
every Northern flying school will b,
reopened. It is not expected that
many men. in the Southern school,
will be transferred North. Some
will be retained to aid in training
the new classes 10 be sent 10 the
Southern fields. Many men will b,
sent TO big fields near Fort Worth
Texas, used during the winter bJ
Canadian and British airmen. whc
are now being sent TO the field a
Toronto for final training befor'
embarking for France.
A number OF the American csdetl
in France, failing to get theil
chance at learning to fly. have &C
cepted commissions in the GROUND
school Many ohers have insisted
that they entered the service to fly
and have refused commissions. The!
are now doing sentry duty abou

5. iPor que no es la reduction

1t isn't nice to get personal, but
sometimes 1t awakens people to real
-ization OF what eonfronts them. Let
us ask how many men who voted for
John Shafroth for senator would en-
ploy him to handle some big financial
deal? How many men who voted for
Ben Hilllard would employ him as
their attorney In an important law
suit? How many men who voted for
Ed Heating would hire him to repre-
sent them In any important transac-
ton that required ability and brains?
How many men who voted for Leslie
Hubbard would hire him as their at
torney in petty Justi.o of the Peace
case! In every instance these voters
would have employed for the work TO
be performed the ablest men they
could find. They should DO the same
in hiring public officials, and they are
going to hire the ablest this fall. Lip
loyal politicians and wlndiainming
-limelight artists are doomed for re-
tlrement
