Ye. who so grandly went the way of death,
Singing Hosannas with your falling

And now look back upon the life you

Seeing our globe as but spinning toy.

Would breathe the shining air that grdles

Gods remedy for man we. too, would

To heal the ailing earth of all her woe
Open the gates for US, that We may find
As you, the riddle solved for all man.

EXPLAINS INCREASED
AIRPLANE LOSSES

New York Steady increase OF Ger
man airpfane losses is admitted by
Capt. Otto Lehman in an article pub
lishsd in the Berlin Tageblatt. review
ing the year 191T-191S. Captain Leti );
man attributes the growing losses TO
two causes: Development of the fight
ing afrplane as weapon against en-
envy infantry and the enhancement Of
the number of fighting machines due
to the transfer of those on the eastern.
or russian front, to the west front
1t Will be noticed that since Ianu-
airy and February. 1918, our figures for
losses show a steady increase Cap
tain Lehman writes. The reason for
that. however, is the increased partfci-
patton of airplanes resulting from the
fact that the German flyers who had
been operating on the eastern front
migrated TO the western front when
fighting ceased in the Russian tsaeater.
The increased participation, of course,
resulted logically in larger total loss
The eastern flyer. who had been
accustomed to quite different fight
ing, conditions. in the beginning, UNI
doubtedly had to pay bloody aDpren-
ticeship in fighting with French and
British. The Russian as an aerial OPP
ponent is nowise to be compared with
the Frenehman and Englishman-
st would be fundamentally W-rcng
to draw the conclusion from the rise
in German losses at the beginning OF
1918, that our superiority had Waned-
Still another factor explains our aigh-
| err losses. As an infantry plane the
aerial weapon is taking part in n con-
| siderably increased measure in fight
| ing the attackers on land. Entire
squadrons of battle planes, SO called
| infantry flyers, accompany the storm :
| ing of the never failing infantry and
| by taking full advantage OF their
| speed, attack the enemy reserves at
| low attitudes with bombs and machine
| guns.
These attacks are made often at
| the ridiculously low attitudes of 100
meters and even 10 meters. 1t is there
! fore at first glance clear that these
| new tasks expose the airplanes to
| every shot> fired from the earth and
must increase our loss account"
