PUNISHMENT OF
HUNS NECESSARY
fRu .Asaooiated press.)

London. oct. 16.-Sir Frederick e.
Smith. the attorney general, in the
preface to a. new edition of his book
on international law, after dealing
with Germany's defiance Of all inter
national law. says the future Of civ
ilization requires that the authority
of public law must be upheld with a
punishment so memorable, because
so dreadful, that the offenses wiz not
be repeated.
For the correction of specifis infa-
mics. he adds, international law
does not exclude the castigation Of
guilty individuals, however highly
placed.
Material injudies may be made
good bv the payment of a pecuniary
indemnity and lie 1t be objected that
an IMPOVERISHED nation has no
money with which to- make good the
consequences of its crimes, it may
be answered that the claims of the
guilty nation to be paid interest on
money supplied for the purposes of
those crimes may be justly postpon- :
ed pending the compensation, Of the
victims. The doctrines of interna-
tionaI law afford abundant warrant
and precedent for both these stand
points.
Finally the attorney general de-
cIares the assumption that the CEN
fral powers will be represented at a
peace conference in the sense that
the allies are represented would
seem to be open TO considerable
question.
The central powers he suggests
should be present in the later
scenes to hear but not to contribute
to the direction of the allies.

(By Associated PreszN

Washington, Oct. 16.-An agree
ment under which the aircraft re-
sources of the allied countries and
the United States are TO be devel-
oped in carrying out joint program
was arrived at during the visit to
England and France of Asst. Sec.
John d. Ryan, head of the army air
craft division. Details OF the plan
necessarily may not be disclosed, but
Mr.. Ryan said yesterday it contem-
plated joint efforts both in aircraft
production and in the operation of
the machines in battle.
So far as the operation OF the ma
chimes in battle is concerned, he ex-
planned that the supreme command
er, Marshal Foch, and the Field Com
manders Generals Petain, Haig and
Pershing, will continue to control
the air fleets as they controlled ev-
cry other element OF the armies un-
der their command
The air supremacy Of the allies
is already unquestIoned, Mr.. Ryan
said, but without co-ordinated ef-
forts and co-ordinated command the
centralized German air fleet might
be concentrated against American,
French or British squadrons in over
whelming numbers for any short
period.
