BAVARIAN APPEAL
 ID COMRADES IS
 FOUND IN FRANCE
Writer Rails Against War Lord of Germany and his Absolute Power Over Max ing War and Peace

PARIS-( Correspondence of The Associated Press)-French aviators are dropping behind the German lines and upon German cities and towns thousands of copies of an appeal writ ten by a Bavarian urging his compat- riots to protest against Prussian tyr amy and autocracy.
 The document was found recently on a Bavarian prisoner of war captured by the French In it the writer places upon Emperor William the guilt of the war and expresses other sentiments against Prussia militarism well known to exist in Bavaria, despite frequent official testimonials of alleged solidar- ity and unity between both two Ger man states.
 As its circulation in Germany is, of course, prohibited, the French authori- ties undertook its distribution by air route Some copies accidently have fallen on the French lines. The docu- ment reads:
 "BAVARIANS, cOMPATRIOTS"
 "The frightful misery which because of the war has spread also to Bavaria and which is leading our Bavarian peo- pie to almost certain ruin, imposes up on us the sacred duty of thinking of the welfare of our country and our compatriot.

NO STRIKE DURING
 WAR SAY LOYAL MEN TYPOGRAPHI UNION
rFrom the Globe Recordl

Agitators of the type of some of the Hunt camp-followers who are seeking to create industrial unrest that wouli hamper America in the war should look upon the record that has been made by the printers and profit there by. This letter, received yesterday by the Arizona Record from Marsden G. Scott, president of the International Typographical union. tells the story:
 On June 15. 1918. 4OSI journeymen members Of this union and 65G appren- tices were in the army and navy forces of the United States and Canada.
 Seventy-five of our members have fallen in battle in France or have died in military camps in America.
 To the widows, orphans, fathers, mothers or other relatives of these men this international union has paid mortuary benefits amounting to S22,- $50.
 During the past twelve months this international union has paid SS54,00O to 1500 old age pensioners.
 In the same period this union has paid mortuary benefits. amounting to S312,40O
 The total expense for the mainten- ance and for improvements at the Un- ion Printers Home at Colorado Springs last year was S167 800

CALUMET WORKS OUT ALI
 DRILL DETAILS

Final details in the awarding of the contract for the diamond drilling Of the Calumet & Jerome have been sat isfactcrily worked out and the con- tract will be let to the same corpora tion which made a great success at the property of the New Cornelia and oth- CT mines in the State of Arizona. The plans made by the management of the Calumet & Jerome call for three drill holes to be sunk a minimum depth of 500 feet in the ground lying east of the fault. or in that ground which has been chosen as the most promising in a re- cent examination made by the engin ger who was prominent in the location of the drill holes for much of the New Cornelia work. The first drill will be sunk from the winZe on the 6OO-foot level of the present workings and will run toward the Gadsden property ad- joining.
 Recent showing of chalcopyrite in the Gadsden property, similar to the formation found in the Calumet & Je- rome ground is attracting much atten- tion in Jerome and it seems to be the .concensus of opinion around the camp that this formation presages the loca- tion of the high-grade body at depth. The Gadsden workings are now at the 1OOO-foot level and the diamond drill of the Calumet & Jerome workings down from the 600-foot level will en- counter the formation at a further depth of four hundred feet.
 The other two holes will be drawn toward the property of the United Verde Extension working upon the theory that the extension of the Unit ed Verde Extension ore body will be found in the Calumet ground.
 It is not expected that the costs of drilling as outlined will exceed $2O,OOO as the Calumet & Jerome in awarding the contract assumes no responsibility for rising labor costs.
 The workings on the No. 1 crosscut following the water course recently en- countered have uncovered considera- ble chalcopyrite, and in the opinion Of Aauber, the mine superintendent, this formation should lead to the discovery of the ore underlying the outcrOp on the surface of the claim.

may we Bavarians expect from such a victory? As little as nothing.
 "All the precious Bavarians blood, all the mourning, the stirring, horrible suffering of our compatriots, of our women and cur children, all the lives sacrificed and ruined and all the ma terial losses; all of that has gene for nothing. All the sacrifices have been without object; they haven't even been for the defense of our country for it has not been menaced, but merely have been for the conservation of Prussian power. In addition, as allies of Prussia, we have drawn upon us the hatred and disapprobation of the en- tire world

they are learning rapidly the art of fighting the Cctha in the dark Until a fev months ago there was little air fighting at night. oven in France, and raiding craft enjoyed a marked adyan- tage because their object was solely to avcid attack while dropping their bombs.
 It is evident that they are able no longer to avoid attack. For one thing, the British pilots have learned to see in the dark as a result of numerous night flights in search Of enemy ma chimes Now they are able to spot GOthas at distances which would have been considered impossible in the ear ly stages of night raids.
 They have learned also how to take the best positions for combating the enemy, and how to keep these posi- tiCns. The GOthas, being an extremely heavy machine, is adept at slipping away. By a sudden plunge in front of the attacking scout it can create a "backwash" and leave the attacker struggling to right his nrschine
 The British pilots now know how to cope with that trick and to keep within thirty or forty yards of the raider all the time.
 There are many perilous positions round the Gotha. whose two gunners can fire in almost any direction Only highly skillful handling of the attack ing ma chine enables the pilot to main tain a place in which he can continue the fight until he hits the raider in a vital spot.

AMERICANS TAKE
 CONDITIONS WITH
 GOOD PHILOSOPHY

HEADQUARTERS OF THE AMER ICAN TROOPS WITH THE BRITISH ARMY IN FRANCE (COrrespond- ence of The Associated ess)-Amer-
 ican boys billetted in northern France
 before being brigaded with the British troops at the front are accepting the new conditions philosophically anu
 adapting themselves readily, with the
 exception cf the use of tea as a sub stitute for coffee with breakfast They found this change too violent
 For military reasons 1t appeared necessary that the Americans brigaded
 with the British be served the British
 ration. They will be allowed 10 ac- quire the tea habit gradually. however, if they want to, coffee being served with breakfast as usual.
 With the coffee they will get bread
 and jam regularly, sausage sometimes. and bacon now and then. Their din ner at 12:S0 will consist of meat, bread, cheese, pudding and potatoes, varied with other vegetables when they are obtainable The evening meal
 at about o'clock comprises bread and butter, jam with tea and extras occas- ionally.
 The ratiOns are good and abundant and when the American boy gets ac- customed to them he thTives on them. Rcys who never saw tide-water be- | fcre they embarked on this expedition require about week to lose their sea- sick and homesick expression and to ! find that a barn floor is not, after all, as hard as it seemed at first. During 1 halt in long march, with one bank | of ditch for a pillow and the other | for @ foot-rest a lot of them were sweeping today in the shade of a hedge 1 as peacefully as they would in their ac-
 customed beds They were quite as
 much at home as if they had always | been there.
 Another contingent, more recently 1 landed, and still struggling with the difficulties, afforded a contrast that showed impressively what the other
 boys had overcome. They seem to be getting the good care they need, so
 far as war conditions will permit.
 Give them a week" said an officer
 Then you will find them an entirely different lot of boys"

Who is it that has jed us to this abyss of perditiOn? Let us be frank! 1 It is not plesumptuous enemies. It Is not the English and the French! Neith- CT is it the other countries that we call the Ententel The guilty ones, one can say in all conscience today, are solely and only the Prussians, or more precisely. there is but one guilty par ty-the King of Prussia. The official assertion that our adversaries started the war against us and menaced us, us and our men, is a falsehood.
 Now the King of Prussia has the right, in the name of Bavaria, to de- clare war and make peace.
 What the atrocious misery this country signifies-a misery that shouts to heaven-must make us realize it cruelty. Prussia, by its absolutist pol itical situation, is obliged to go to war at longer or shorter periods. If for nothing else than to sustain the inter ests of it's dominating clique. The his tory of Prussia is one of continual war with more or less lengthy interruptions Are not the Prussian country squires (hobereaux) already talking, despite the terrible misery, of the next war?
 "The present war, also, is not at all in the interests of Bavaria, but is sole Iy a gamble for the power of the Prus- sian state, its military and Its agrari- ans.
 We Bavarians are not in any way in opposition to the interests of the peoples whom We are fighting. On the contrary France, for example, has notably favored our country and our people during the course of history. Among the governments that are our opponents in this war, not one has as one of its war aims the extinction of our country. But the war hinges en- tirely, and with good right, against Prussia which, with the Russia of oth- CT days, is the most corrupt state in Europe. The sons of Bavaria sacrifice their lives by hundreds of thousands for this Prussia, for this country which a few decades ago, in 1866 took away part of our territory and an enor- nous war indemnity.
 And even if it were possible to be victorious what can our country, what

There should be no strikes or lockouts during the war.
 This international union sOlicits nor accepts contributions to its benefit funds. Every dollar expended for these purposes is paid by members Of this organization in the form of regu- lar dues and assessments.
 This is in line with what all good union men want to see done. The men who have the real welfare of organized labor at heart are not agitating for strikes at this time. They want fair play and they should have it. But. first of all. they want the allies to win this war and they are doing every thing they can do to make victory possible
