has developed among treasury officials

institution to regulate issues of secu-

vent the market from being flooded

on the fact that the court could find
no federal question to be involved.

the California supreme court refused

PERIL DEFYING
Face Heavy Fire with Dan
gers of Cross-Sea
Exploits.

Crossing the Adriatic in a hydro
plane is a feat, which, though
frequently accomplished by the eI-
perienced aviator. taxes all the
powers of the novice. Recently
Austria has been sending across
many newly commissioned pilots,
and this, added to the ever in
creasing efficiency OF the Italian
anti-aircraft guns and ehssers has
resulted in heavy losses for the
Austrians. In almost all their re-
Austrian aviators have left behind
them part of their apparatus or a
colleague.
The Austrian disaster in the
clouds above the Adriatic at night
are due to the anti-aircraft bat
teries and in the daytime to the
chasers. The chasers are feared
most by the Austrians, according
TO the tales of the prisoners, there
fore the aviators prefer to attack
at night, especially as they believe
night raids produce greater alarm
in the Italian people. But the
nocturnal flights prove to be the
most disastrous to the enemy
