GEN. FOCH HAS
 CREATED AN IMPRESSION
Travellers Say People Are Much Con. cerned Over Marne
 Defeat

GENEVA, Aug. 2.-The Marne of-
 fensive launched and carried out suc-
 cessfully by the allies, has created a
 decided impression in Germany, ac-
 cording to travellers arriving at Basic and krenzingen. These persons state that Bavaria and Saxony are deeply concerned because it was troops from those sections of the German empire which lost most heavily, and the ,peo- pie are inclined believe they were misled into the belief that the oppon- ent forces would not prove able to defeat them. To justify this belief they point out the article by General Von Loringhouen. The latter in writ ing in the Mannheim Gazette, depre. ciates the American help given the allies. He says in part: While Am erican intervention is a fact" he writes, they are untrained inexperi- enced and their numbers are exager- ated by half but they are sufficient in numbers to allow General Foch to take the initiative"

PLANNING TO
 BOMB GERMAN CITIES
 INCLUDING BERLIN

An aerial offensive to cities of Ger many including Berlin. is possible, in the opinion of Major-General Branck- CT, controller general of equipment of the British air ministry expressed in an interview given New York World reporter recently.
 General Brancker believes, event ually the United States will be oblig- ed to create a secretary of air forces. For the success of the Allied cause, he feels strongly that the quicker air independence is established in this country the better
 we simply had to come to an air ministry in England" said General Brancker. The ZepIelins and the Gothas, coupled with the experience gained when aviation was controlled by the army and navy forced it upon us, You have no Hun air raids in this country to aoruse you, but it is hoped that, lacking this stimulus, you will by our cApcIlcuCc
 Are not the advantages of indepen- dent control obvious? Here you have one branch of aviation under the ad- minstration of the secretary of war, another under the secretary of the navy These ministers have many ether affairs to attend to in addition to aviation.
 'It is within the realm of certainty that we can bomb Berlin in the spring if not in the fall, with airplanes we have building, as we have already bombed Cologne and the Rhine cities, but we have not the numbers or a really big offensive, in my understand ing of the term. We have plenty of planes and can build plenty lore, but we lack engines, and we have about reached the limit of capacity for en- zine production.
 we have built up a big airplane programme to take the Liberty motor and bomb Germany, but America can not now spare these motors, and so. fear our airplanes may be wasted and the offensive from the air seriously de- layed.
 "The delivery of certain types of planes by flying them across the At lantic is feasible If we can fly to Berlin and back, which is more than 800 miles, we can fly from Newfound- land to the Azores (the longest lap of the iourney). which is 12S0 miles, This means a big organization, air dromes and repair plants in New Foundland and the Azores"

PUBLIC SCHOOL
 STAFF UNDERGOES
 SEVERAL CHANGES

Mir Bergs.resser, clerk of the school board, announced this morning that several new changes were to be made in the teaching staff of the Ketchikan public school this coming fall season owing to the resignation of two more teachers, MT NJ Roper, who has en- listed, and Miss Louise Field, who is to complete her course at Stanford Un- iversity taking her degree next sum- mer.
 Manual training teachers are at premium, and thus far no one has been secured to take Mir.

 Of the old teaching staff who will continue their work this year are Professor Knox, principal, Miss Clara Derrick. Miss Amy Barlow, Miss Mary bIiDthorn and Miss Claire Buor.
