for its program to succeed.
Russia gives proof of this. Boil
sheviki rule has been a tragic
failure there. The Germans
knew such rule would destroy
the country and that is why
Teuton aid was given to Len
inc and Trotsky.
1t is now pretty evident that
without German scheming
and German money the bolshe-
Wiki leaders would not have got
ten to first base in Russia. They
could never have acquired
power; they could not have re-
tanned power if they had got
ten it.
In the minds of many there
must have been a connection
between enemy propaganda
and the /. w. w. efforts in Am
erica. On no other basis can
the subject be logically ex-
planned. We know that the
Germans have been up to just
such tricks, and they have in
the past been ready to use mil
lions for the promotion of
bribery. murder and treason. If
the l. w. w. has not been used
it has not been because Ger
many has been unwilling to
work through such a channel.
The Hun conscience is so
geared that it is permissible to

FROM THE SKY

~ VEN more significant
VI than the news of allied
ground gaining on the
west front are the reports of
allied supremacy in the air.
Scarcely a day goes by without
some news of allied success in
the air. The English are regu-
larly destroying more German
planes than there are English
planes lost. 1t is reported that
the enemy is so outnumbered in
the air that there are no planes
available for the work of op-
posing the low flying allied
planes that sweep over the Ger
man trenches and concentration
camps.
If this fortunate situation ex-
lists now what will conditions be
next summer when the quanti-
ty production methods of Am
erica come into real play? If
German airmen cannot offset
the allies now how can they
hope for success when Ameri-
can machines by the thousands
get into action. The three mil
lion soldiers we plan to have in
France next June will not rep
resent the full strength of the
United States. Time may de-
velop that our air force will do
even more than the infantry
and artillery to drive the foe
back into Berlin.
