AIRMEN TAKE
REPRISALS
ON FOE
BOMBING ATTACKS BY ENEMY
ARE AVENGED WITH
INTEREST

LONDON, July 22.-How a British
flying squadron turned the tables
on German airmen who had been
bombing their aerodrome is related
by Lieutenant w. A. Barnes of the
Royal Air Force.
we had been giving the Hun a
lively time" the officer says,
bombing his dumps, billets, COM
~munications and towns nights. When
therefore, he bombed our aerodrome
two evening in succession and COM
pletely upset all u arrangements,
il was generally agreed that he had
scored one yer us. Much as his
enterprise was admired, however,
it was decided to try to check it.
The plan evolved was simple.
The next day the British machines
we're flown over to a neighboring
aerodrome, where it was believed
they would be safe from raids. Then
they started off just after dusk to
make a reprisal attack.
I'VE arrived at the enemy's lair"
Lieutenant Barnes narrates, "at a
most opportune moment, for a
second relay of his machines were
just 'taxying' across the ground to
take Off in the flare path. In our
widest dreams we had not hoped
for such luck as this, and every
possible advantage was taken of it.
"A few well-directed bombs drop
ped right in among the machines
that were awaiting their turn to
take off, set fire to two and badly
damaged others. Another machine
was seen to crash whilst actually
taking off in the flare path Some
equally well-directed incendiary
bombs set fire to a large shed, and
then the real fun of the night be-
gan.
by this time the first relay OF
enemy machines, sent as we after
Yards learned to bomb our own
9rodrome again, began to return
AS they were on their own side OF
the line, and in blissful Ignorance
of the fate of their aerodrome, they
were flying with navigation lights
full on, thereby giving their position
away in the darkness.
Relieved of u bombs, we were
able to give fight, and successfully
shot down one in flames, while an
other was distinctly seen to crash
on top of a wood.
Having thus paid our debts in
full we left the remainder to land
on a bomb-riddled aerodrome-nC
enviable task at night-while we
went off home to celebrate a good
nights work, with the comforting
assurance that the r. A. F. were al
least one up on their a~dversaries
game"

More "Work or Fight"

At a recent meeting of the Ian
der county council of defense all
gambling games operating in the
county were ordered to close and
saloons were ordered to permit no
persons without essential occupa-
lions to remain on their premises.
The order directed that saloon pro-
p~rietors refusing to comply with
the regulations have their licenses
revoked.

GERMAN PAPER
R0ASTS KAISER
SAYS GERMAN PEOPLE WE'RE
NOT GIVEN TRUTH in
1914

AMSTERDAM, July %. = The
Frankfurter Zeitung is not pleased
with Emperor Williams speech on
the occasion of the thirtieth ami
versary of his accession. The paper
disputes his assertion that the gerat
war is a struggle between two diff
ferent world conceptions - on one
hand the German conception OF
right. freedom, honor and morals,
and on the other the Anglo-Saxon
conception.
1T is not a question of two world
conceptions" says the Frankfort
newspaper, "but of two world pow
ers each possessing might the like OF
which the world has never seen be-
fore.
1.-THE German people were not
told on Aug. 4, 1914, they were go
ing out to fight the Anglo-Saxor
conception Of the world until ii
conquered. Had that been said,
nsyen in yelled terms, the high unity
the will of the German people
would have been rent assunder on
the first day. For the German did
not think of this or that kind OF
world conception. He thought OF
the Fatherland's need, of home, and
wife, and mother"

British Turn Hun Guns On Fleeing Enemy - Chop Holes In Ranks-Nearing Ghent-Fight In Rain and Mud

WITH THE ALLIED ARMIES IN FRANCE AND BELGIUM, Oct. 21.- Four p. m, by the Associated Press) The great battle in Flanders and northern France passed into it's second phase today. The first phase was completed when the Lille salient was eliminated, when the Germans were driven out of western Belgium, so that the line all the way from the frontier of Holland to the Disc canal is vir- tually a straight one.
 This having been accomplished, the Belgians, British and French in the north started a sweeping movement today, pivoting on a point about cast of Courtrai. The object of this appears to be the clearing of the enemy from his front in northern Belgium, and at the same time to threaten his extreme right flank
 Chop Great Holes in Huns
 The key position at the south is in the region below Valenciennes. At both places the exhausted German di- visions. whose ranks have had great holes chopped in them by terrific blows are fighting with the greatest despera- tion. The German commanders are sacrificing many men in their en- deavor to hold their ground, but in both sections, the allied troops have smashed into the enemy and made appreciable gains. Scores of addition al villages have been reclaimed and numerous prisoners and large quanti- ties of supplies have been captured.
 In the center of the battle area, the British kept thrusting out everywhere and gradually, during the day, moved forward toward the west bank of the Scheldt, with increased celerity. The Germans have taken advantage of the natural protection offered by the width of this stream and it's canal and marsh borders. They are hiding be- hind it in shallow trenches and are showing nervousness as the allies ap- proach. Back of them. their artillery the strength of which -ss been greatly depleted, is giving some support. Use Made in Germany" Shells

ROOSEVELT REVEALS
 STUPEND0US NAVAL
 CONSTRUCTIVE WORK
Republican A. p. Leased Wirel


 WASHINGTON, Oct. 21.-Construc ton of the North sea mine barraSe against submarines, agreement to lay an oil pipe line across Scotland, es- of naval aviation stations from the Spanish border to the English channel, and other details of the work of the American navy in foreign waters, were given to the public today by Assistant Secretary Roosevelt, who recently returned from visit to Europe.
 Biggest Ordnance Work in History
 The building of the northern mine barrage was one of the biggest things ever accomplished in ordnance work, Mir. Roosevelt said. In turning out material for it, a number of plants in this country were kept busy for months. Several American boses were established on the British coast to lay and handle the mines.
 To save haulage of oil, the Ameri- can navy has undertaken to construct a pipe line across Scotland.
 "All the way from the Spanish bor der, clear around to the English chan nel," said MT. Roosevelt, we have es- tablished aviation stations, so spaced, that the entire coast line is covered by seaplanes and dirigibles. These stations were built almost entirely by our sailors. At each station there is an average of from 200 to 800 men. This aviation force and our patrol vessels have been doing such splendid work that for the past six months there have been practically no sink ings within fifty miles of the French coast. We hope to extend this patrol zone to a hundred miles,"
 Place Extensive Guards In northern France, in cooperation with the British and Belgians, Secre- l taryt Roosevelt said there had been | established what is known as the Northern Bombing Group. composed of a number of aviation units which did much to prevent the Germans from again using Zebrugge and Ostend as | submarine bases.
 l An American naval force, co-operat- | ing with the British at Gibraltar, is patrolling the Atlantic in that vicinity and is acting as convoy to vessels go- ing to and from Italy, Greece anC Egypt. There is a flying school witt several naval aviation units on dut! in Italy, while in the Adriatic is ; large group of submarine chasers.
 Each naval base has it's hospital Secretary Roosevelt said, and in Scot land an entire watering place has beer taken over by the Americans for us'
 as a hospital.
 "Conditions have vastly improves from what they were last year." sai' the secretary in referring to the sub
 marine menace, but we cannot af
 ford to let up in our activities for on
 single second. In regard to the re
 spect which U-boats have shown fo
 international law. you have but to as

They still Itf no doubt that the loan had been nt'rsubscrIbcd but explained that many earlier messages appeared too optimistic in the light of actual figures DOW being compiled by every bank and a.sl committee over the country.
 Some cities which at first reported they were heavily oversuhscrihed. now discover that they barely went over their marks.
 Greatest War Loan in History
 There was good ground, however. 'or Inc estimate that 22,00O.000 or more individuals had subscribed to the rroatcst war loan ever floatcd by any -oNcrnmeut. The fact that many of these represented lump subscriptions hN corporations. which later would re- ari bonds tO their employees. led to the nrNet that the number of actual bond holders would be considerably higher.
 owing to the present uncertainty. the treasury expects to make no further announcement concerning the results oi the loan until definite and official UEures arc received from each federal reserve bank. The first of these re- rcrts is hardly looked for before next Monday. and the final compilations may be delayed for two weeks.
 A digest of reports, so far received indicates clearly. officials say. that the house to house canvassing method or thc system of having citizens call vol untsrily at polling places. should be used much more extensively in the ufth Liberty loan campaign, set for next spring.

 NOTED-- AROUSED SENT |MENT ADMITTED

LONDON, Oct. 2t.-Viscount Haldane, former secretary of war, expressing his views on Germany's thought Germany had conceded what President Wilson required, but in an indirect and complex manner. The elaboration of peace conditions, he believes would prove a formidable business.
 LONDON, Oct. 21.-Gord North cliffe, commenting on Germany's reply tonight said:
 "A hasty perusal of the German note reveals that, with truly Prus- sian selfishness, no mention is made of Austria Hungary or Turkey. It seems to me that the document may be read either as means to gain time or as confession of state of affairs, mlitariIy and eco nomically worse than we know.
 "The German government may be hoping to exploit the conditions of the armlstlce as an outrage upon German honor, and as means of rallying the German nation for des- perate resistance, or it may simply be trying to put the president into the position of trustee for the Ger man people, which will have thrown itself upon his mercy.
 "The least satisfactory feature of the reply is the shameless faIsity with regard to German outrage on land and sea, and the suggestion that this be dealt with by neu- traI commission is mere subter- fuge. The arguments employed to prove that reform of the German constitution has been accomplished IS unworthy of serious consdera- ton.
 "The president who dealt so firm ly and shrewdIy with the previous German attempt to entage him in wordy discussons, may be trusted to compel the German government to show whether it really intends unconditional surrender, which, alone, can satisfy the demands of the military and naval authorities of the allies, or whether it simply is playing for time.'

 Separate Peace
 Is Now Believed

AMSTERDAM, Oct. 21.-The cor respondent at Constantinople, of the Weser Zeitung of Bremen, says it must be admitted public opinion, for some time past, has favored a separate peace for turkey. This view underwent change as a re- suit of Prince Maximilian's speech in the reichstag, which also strengthened the position of the party of union and progress.
 Proposals now are being dis cussed, the correspondent continues, for a reformation in Turkey, ac- cording to which ConstantinopIe would become free port and the Qualifications of the Dardanelles dismantled, on condition that the powers guarantee the continuance of Constantinople as the capital of Turkey. It is further proposed to grant autnomy to Arabia, Syria, Armenia and the Jewish zone in Palestine. Influential Turkish newspapers continue to advocate a separate peace with the entente.
