Would Have $4,000 Machines
Stimulated Germany


HARTFORD. CONN, June l6-Col-
onel Theodore Roosevelt told a thronC
OF 1000 persons at Trinity College
commencement exercises here to-day
that the boast that America would have
10000 airplanes by this spring with
General Pershing's men had stimulated
Germany to build and not TO brag
From letter recently he said he
had learned that on a certain Ameri-
can sector there were no American
airplaneS to defend the American
troops, and that the German aviators
flew over the American lines and
sprayed the Americans with their ma
chine guns. American officers fred
back futilely with their revolvers.
I'VE owe this to the fact that last
fall" he said. eve were announcing
that there would be 10000 airplancs
with rershings army this spring. and
the boast took in our own people. II
took in the Germans Unlike our own
people, they built airp!anes TO meet 1t.
Then the great drive began. and France
and England had TO make 4 rampant OF
the bodies OF their best men to shield
themselves and 10 shield us. They
found the Germans had built the air
planes we were going to build and
had not built"
