AV1ATORS ARE
BADLY NEEDED
BY AMERICANS
(By Associated Press)

WITH THE AMERICAN EXPEDI-
TIONARY ARMY, Feb 21-Americans
admit that the enemy controls the air
over the American sector. German
airplanes fly over the American lines
almost at will, generally at height of
about three thousand feet, where they
are comparatively safe from the anti
aircraft guns.
American officers are urging that
American airplane pilots be sent to
France Immediately.
The Germans are concentrating
their artillery opposite the American
sector. They have twice the number
of guns they had when the Americans
first took over the sector, and are fir
ing about nine hundred shells daily.
whereas they fired hardly hundred
and fifty at first. American artillery
men, however, are giving the Ger
mans two or three shells for one.
