fame. looking like a brilliant comet
In the sky.
The spinning nose dive Is used to
greater advantage by the Germans
than by our own pilots for the reason
that when fight gets too hot for the
German, he will put his machine in
a spin, and as the chances are nine
out of ten that we are fighting over
German territory, he simply spins
down out of our range, straightens
out before he reaches the ground, and
gets on home to his airdrome. 1t is
useless to follow him down inside the
German lines, for you would in all
probability be shot down before you
can attain sufficient altitude to cross
the line again.
1t often happens that pilot will
be chasing another machine when
suddenly he sees it start to spin. Per-
haps they are fifteen or eighteen thou
sand feet in the air, and the hostile
machine spins down for thousands of
feet. He thinks he has hit the other
machine and goes home happy that
he has brought down another Hun.

FRENCH WARM IN PRAISE

Ready to Bet That Germans Have
Revised Opinion Of Their
Quality.

An official dispatch from France
says the French press Is commenting
in the warmest terms on the inter-
ventfon Of the American troops in the
great battle taking place between the
Disc and the Marine.
"All the newspapers lay stress upon
the brilliant operations Of the wood
of Veuilly and Of Jaulgonne," says
the message. 1.-THE Matin writes:
".Among the reserves which are con-
tinuing to arrive it is necessary to
note the American troops. which.
though scarcely in the lines. have
distinguished themselves by re-estab-
fishing the situation in an important
sector. The Americans have shown
themselves full Of zeal. spirited in at
tack and steady as rocks in the de-
fense.
"'These young. robust soldiers have
in a few weeks, with a tremendous
effort, become on modern battlefields
the equals of their French and Brit
ish comrades who were their instruct
ors.

who amused themselves by speaking
in ironical terms of the Army which
came from the other side of the wa
ter, must by now have changed their
opinion concerning the military quail
ties of an adversary that has just in
ficted a telling check on their best
troops of attack.

DECLARES BRITISH HAVE
DONE SENSIBLE THING
John Dillon Comments on Abandon
ment Of CONSUMPTION for Ireland.
Places Blame for Troubles.

LONDON, June 5.-The voluntary
recruiting appeal by Viscount French.
the lord lieutenant of Ireland, is
neither applauded nor condemned by
John Dillon, the nationalist leader.
in an interview with the Daily Tele-
graphs correspondent in Dublin.
The government" Mr.. Dillon ts
quoted as saying. has certainly done
one sensible thing in abandoning the
attempt to enforce conscription in
Ireland against the will of the people.
which would have brought no
strength to the, allied cause. and un-
doubtedly would have produced world
wide evils. Any prospects Of the sue
cess of Lord French's appeal depend,
in my Judgment. entirely on the ex-
tent to which the government will re-
verse their Irish policy and the meth
DDS of recruiting practiced In Ireland
since the outbreak of the war"
The nationalist reiterated his view
that the government was to blame
for 1.-The present very unfortunate sit
uation in Ireland" and said he could
not see any marked signs of a change
of mind on the part of the govern
ment, or that it realized the basic
facts of the situation. The govern
ment, he said, appeared to him to be
entirely blind to the fact that it
could not expect to secure the sup
port of the people unless 1t convinced
them that it respected and trusted
them,

GERMAN SUMMER RESORTS
HIT BY FOOD SHORTAGE
Prospective Guests Arc Advised to
Bring Their Provisions
From Home.

AMSTERDAM. June 3.-The Berlin
Lokal Anzeiger publishes the result
of a canvass It has made Of the food
conditions in various German sum-
mer and holiday resorts. Virtually all
the popular Harz mountain resorts
complain sof q shortage of milk. meat
and butter. Some of them advise
prospective visitors. to have parcels
of food sent to them from their
homes.
The Baltic watering places report
food of all kinds insufficient in guam
tity. and declare that persons con-
templating visits to. them had better
remain in the cities. From Muritz, a
resort in Mecklenburg- -Schwerin, the
newspaper prints a report which an
editorial note qualities as sinister
omen. I'VE are forbidden to say any
thing at all about food conditions.
says the report.
Advices from Silesia are somewhat
better, but food hoarders are strictly
warned to stay away. The Bavarian
resorts require that visitors shall
bring their food and bathing apparel
from their homes. The reports from
all points agree as to the scarcity of
milk.

hearing before the Federal Trade
Commission were concluded with the
submission of a request by repre-
sentatives Of the American Newspa-

America through tho Red Cross
agents behind the italian front along
the Piave river, which section is
filled with refugees from the regions
invaded by Teutonic troops. is greet
ed with evidences of fervent graft
tude and jubilation. This Is true
not only because of the actual gifts

cause it signifies to the Italians the
fact that America is standing be-

the Austrian invaders.
The aged priest at Castello-di-

expected donations from America
that he threw up his arms, knelt in
prayer and exclaimed: 1T is gift

Wherever the Red Cross workers
have distributed their relief the

the succored families of that com
