DANIELS OPPOSES
FLYERS EXTRA PAY

says Government insurance System
Now Makes 1t Unnecessary.
WASHINGTON. Feb. 2S.-Secre-
tary Daniels recommends, in letter
to the speaker OF the house, that ex-
ira pay allowances for members OF
the flying corps of the navy he abol-
ished. Some time ago Secretary Ba-
ker made a similar recommendation
for the army. The act of March 4
1893, provides 35 per cent additional
pay for officers of the navy and ma
rine corps while on aviation duty. The
action of March 8, 1915. contained a
provision making the additional al
lowance so per cent for commission,
ed flyers and 80 per cent for student
aNiators. 1t also made provision for
n 80 per cent Increase to enlisted men
while engaged in actual flying.
Mr.. Daniels points oNt that the in
creased allowances were mainly due
to the difficulty airmen found in OBJ
tanning life insurance. This, he says,
has been obviated by the government
military Insurance system. He holds
the risk of aviators no greater than
those of men ON ships serving in the
war zone

Enemy in Air

British Air Force Headquarters In
France. There have been many signs
recently of extreme uneasiness by the
German high command regarding the
increasing ascendancy of the allied air
men on the western front. This has
been especially evident since the Amer
ican airmen have begun to appear In
force and have proved themselves of
the same mettle as the French and
British flyers.
Perhaps the most striking evidence
of German official anxiety regarding
the allied superiority in the air is to be
found in the official German wireless
news. In an effort to counterfeit the
depressing effect of the real facts of
the situation the German wireless ed
ttors make the widest statements, Dor
dering almost on humor.

wireless report says: superior meth

w orst Fighting
of War in 1918

London. The heroic battles Of the
British army during the last half or
1917, including the battles Of Cam
brai, the third battle of Ypres, the bat
tie of Menin road, Of Broodseinde and
of Passchendaele, would loom up I'M
portantly In any survey of the past
years fighting on the western front but
for one reason: They do not COM
pare in any sense with the fighting
since March q, 1918.
The spring of 1917 saw the begin
ming of the allied offensive against
Germany, but the third miscarried al
most from the start, and, after 1t was
seen that there was nothing more to
be expected from Russia, the great
offensive" of the allies found itself
diverted into number of smaller bat
ties, where occasionally some 100000
men were employed on either side.
Some $4,000 prisoners were taken by
the British In eight of these TRUSTS
against the German line between
August |, 1917, and the close of the
year, and important positions were
won, but the successes were only tao

The third battle of Ypres began
July 81, 1917, and continued until Au-

canal, taking nine villages and 6,122
prisoners. When the battle was re-

Smash Foe at Verdun.
The French on August 20, attacking
on an 11-mile front at Verdun, recap
tured about two-thirds of the ground
which the crown princes army had
won In months Of slaughter.
The chief action In September 1917,
was In the battle of Menin road,
which began September 20, the object
being to loosen the German grip on
the coast. Following an eight hours
bombardment the British advanced
on an eight-mile front from Hole
beke to Langemarck, capturing q
half-dozen important positions and
taking 3,243 prisoners.

and the British scored noteworthy
successes. On October a great strug-
gle began on front Of eight miles

of the British forces. The Germans
succeeded In recovering about half OF
the ground Byng's army had won.
During the past year the British
have made considerable progress In
Mesopotamia and Palestine, capturing
Jerusalem December 8, 1917, while the
allied armies from the Adriatic. to the
Egean have prevented the Germanic
allies from gaining control of the Med
iterranean.
so far the British have won more
than third of Palestine from the
Turks. In Mesopotamla the British
have advanced about 100 miles up the
Tigris and Euphrates since capturing
Bagdad, and have made some prog
ress toward the north of Hit, capturing
more than $4,000 prisoners.
During January, February and the
first half of March only small actions

Why Capitals Name Was Changed.

With the growth of anti-German
feeling in Russia early in the war
there was developed a dislike for the
name st. Petersburg, which was of
German origin and termination. The
ear in opening the duma, said 1.-THE
German empire and later Austria-Hun-
gary have declared war on Russia.
The tremendous outburst of patriotic
sentiment, of love and loyalty to the
throne-which, like tempest, trav-
ersed our entire lands to me, as it
is to you, pledge. hope that the
great Russia will conduct to a happy
conclusion the war which the Lord
has sent" One Of the first things the
duma did was to change the German
sounding name st. Petersburg to the
Slavic word Petrograd.
