what were those three machines

ton. B..

particular occasion. q. ~ r
Wait. for Alarm
Then the Americans climb out and
sit, around and wait for the end of
their tour Of duty o. for another
alarm. The weather is getting warm
now but in the air it Is still cold, so
the pilots still must wear heavy cloth
ihg. Because the clothing is cumber-
some the airmen usually sit around
perspiring rather than waste a second
should a hurry up call come. The
American airmen are using the same
machine guns which have been found
ilAus. encstlve by the A~nglo-French
army. Some of the Americans {. are
completing their training in flying in
l~offi1atlons on patrol in fast chasers,
while others are learning observation
and photograph work. =
The photographic machines are
getting full opportunity to work free
ly for the same youths who go out on
the alert calls take ri in protect
ing thep photographers while they are
at work. And while-the men in the
machines taking pictures desire to be
let alone, their protectors in fast
chasing planes hope that they will
not be, for if a boche comes lee that
gives the fighting airmen the chance
for which they are waiting.

With the American Army in
France, May 3.-(By the Associated
Press).-German aviators are now
resorting to unsportsmanlike tricks in
an endeavor to outwit American fiji
ers. The thickness of the German
soldiers afoot is emulated by enemy
airmen who are marking their ma
chimes as much like allied machines
as possible.
The game of the German airmen is
to play around, get in a shot if he
can and then run. American filters
for fear Of attacking a probable
friend, must get up close to In enemy
machine. usually after considerable
maneuvering, before opening 4 fight.
How it Happens.
Here is what happens at an air
dronle to (which Americans are at
tached when an alarm comes in. The
telephone bell rings at the hangar
and the location Of the enemy is re-
peated in a loud voice by the SER
geant. A number of young Ameri-
cans. overallcd. helmeted and booted,
swing into their machine, the propell-
ers are turned over and one after an
other the machines lash acros the
field. They take the air quickly and
in less than five minutes from the
time the bell rings the airplanes look
like mosquitoes in the sky.
In three quarters of an hour they
are back again and compare notes.

First Piles For
Foundation OF Palace
For The Lyons Fair

LYONS. France. April 6.-(Corre-
spondence Of the Associated Press.)-
The first piles have just been driven
for the foundation Of the palace in
which the Lyons fair will be held
hereafter. The building will cover
thirty acres of ground alongside the
park Of the Tete dor on the banks of
the Rhone. and will accommodate A.
900 exhibitors. The cost is estimated
at 0,0O0,0 900 francs. This outlay Is
justified on the ground that the gross
receipts from last years fair were L.
1000 francs.
The remarkably increased interest
Of American firms in the enterprise
was the outstanding feature Of the
last fair. They numbered SAB as
against Is in 1916, and the United
States passed from sixth in import
ance among foreign exhibitors to the
first rank, with more than four times
as many exhibitors as any other for
eign country. The figures yede: Amer
lean, 643: English, 1870: Swiss, ia;
Spanish, 33; Italian, 40; Dutch. %.
Business approaching 500, 200, 900
francs was transacted. This exceeds
the business done at the Leipzig fair
Of 1914 when the organizers announc-
ed a total OF 800, 900, 900 marks.
The Palais de la Foire as it will be
called will furnish office acconoda-
tions to exhibitors as we'll Is stands,
warehousing facilities, rail t~ransporta-
ton &c doors of the palace and ample
provision will be made for clearing
exhibits through the customs at offices
ON the grounds.

BILL AIMED AGAINST
/. w. W. Is PASSED
( BY SENATE TODAY

7 washington, May 6.--The bill de-
clared frankly to be aimed against
the Industrial Workers of the World
outlawing organizations which use or
advocate violence to bring about
''any governmental, social, industrial
or economic change" during the war
was passed today by the senate, after
brief debate and went to the house.
Activities Of the I. w. w. were Bit
terly denounced during the senate
discussion OF the measure, which not
only would make such organizations
unlawful. but punish by ten years I'm
prisonmcnt and $1,000 fine the hold.
ing Of an office or membership in
such an organization. Printing or dis
semination Of organization propagan-
.da and rental for halls for meeings'
also are penalized in the bill which is.
the Joint work Of Senators Walsh of
Montana and King Of Utah. and which
was unanimously approved by the
senate judiciary committee.
Senator Walsh. said the bill was in
tended to Outlaw organizations
teaching, advising, using or defending
force or violence or physical injury
to property. He also thought it was
extended to lynchings. but Senator
Borah of Idaho disputed that argu-
ment..
Whether legitimate strikes of or
gained labor would be penalized by
the bill was a question raised by Sen
ator Reed of Missouri, and Senator
Walsh said there is no purpose to
prohibit peaceful labor strikes.
Senator Thomas of Colorado read
the hymn Of the I. w. W., and con-
cluded with the expression Of hope
that the bill be passed * that the
government might deal effectively
with this foul nest Of thieves and
murderers whose presence is a libel
ION our existence" -.
Senator Beckham Of Kentucky said
if it were good in time of war. he be-
lieved it also was good in times of
peace. He proposed an amendment to
make it permanent. Such an amend
ment, Senator Borah asserted, might
make the entire measure u%nconstitu-
tional. The senate rejected the amend
ment. !"
