INCREASE in Loss
CEAMAN PLANES

New York September 12.-Steady
increase of German airplane losses
is admitted by Captain Otto Leham
in an article published in the Berlin
of aerial warfare during the year
1917 1918. CAPTAIN Leham attributes
the growing losses to two causes:
Development of the fighting airplane
as a weapon against enemy infantry,
and the enhancement of number OF
fighting machines due to the transfer
of those on the Eastern or Russian
front to the West front.
ut will be noticed that since jan
uary and February, 1918, our figures
for losses show steady increase
Captain ueham writes. The reason
for that, however, is the increased
from the fact that the German flying
who had been operating on the
eastern front migrated TO the
western front when fighting ceas-
ed In the Russian theatre. The
increased participation, of course, re-
suited logically in larger total loss.
1.-THE eastern flyer, who had been
accustomed to quite different fight
ing, conditions, is the beginning, un.
doubtedly had to pay bloody APP
premiership in fighting with French
The Russian as an serial opponent
is nowise to be compared with the
Frenchman and English.
at would be fundamentally wrong
to draw the conclusion from the rise
in German losses at the beginning
of 1918, that our supriority had won
ed. "Still another factor explains our
higher losses, AS an infantry plane
the serial weapon is taking part in
considerably increased measure in
fighting the attackers on land. Entire
squadrous of battle planes, so-called
infantry flyers, accompany the storm
ing of the never failing infantry and
by taking full advantage of their
at lew attitudes with bombs and ma
chine guns.
These attacks are made often at
the ridculously low attitudes of 100
metres and even 10 metres. 1t is
that these new tests expose the air.

earth, and must increase our loss ac-

THE WAR, THE FARM
AND THE FARMER
BY Herbert Quick
Member Federal Farm Loan Board

der as thing against which we
could not defend ourselves.
We should have allowed this new
horror to become a part of all future
wars, and have been responsible for
it's incorporation into international
law.
We should have proved that be-
cause the fire which burns up our
farms usefulness is beyond the hori-
zon, we would submit to the kindling
of it.
We might have accepted the sew
enty cents for wheat and the six cents
for cotton, but we could not have
done it merely because we were
commanded to do it. BY so doing
we should have accepted degrada'
ton. We should have begun, after
winning our freedom in our own
revolution and establishing union
on the foundation of liberty in the
blood and tears Of our war between
the states, to knuckle under to autoc.
racy. We should have basey yielded
up our birthright as Americans.
Such a thought is intolerable. Peace
at such a price would not be peace
but only preparation for future
revolt against subjugation. Better
I any sort of war; better war forever
that that.
Whenever the time comes for new
sacrifices, let us remember that we
| fight, not for our liberties tomorrow
| or next year or twenty years from
now, but for our freedom today. Not
for the right 10 live in the future, but
for the right to make living this
year.
German oppression had begun to
pinch us before we entered the war
If we had not declared war, but had
accepted the conditions of life ordered
for us by the Kaiser, we should today
| be a poverty-stricken people. Our
| factories would be shut down, our
workmen unemployed, our people
starving. our farmers ruined by the
poverty of those for whose cOnsump
tion they grow their crops. There il
loss and sacrifice in the war, but
there would have been far more OF
loss and sacrifice in accepting the
/ German terms. We should have lost
more in money than we have spent
I in the war, but we should have lost
something far more precious. We
! should have lost our souls.

What the Imperial German govern.
ment offered the farmers of America
in it's ruthless submarine warfare was
not the loss Of profits, but slavery to
the saber-rattler of Potsdam. He pur
posed to make us slaves by murder
ing the people who took our products
to market. BY all the laws of civil
lied warfare, commerce under neu
trail flag was free from any hindrance
except the legal interference justified
by war. But the Germans not only
stopped merchant vessels, they sank
them. Sank them without warning,
without trace-the most devilish
thing war has seen since the savases
scalped our ancestors and threw
screaming babies into the flames Of
burning cabins.
The German plan of sinking mer-
chant vessels without trace is based
on the murderer's maxim that dead
men tell no tales 1t was exc.
cuted by the massacre of men. won.
Ell and children, who, having COM
mitted themselves to small boats in
the open sea after their ships were
torpedoed, were mercilessly raked
with gunfre, and exterminated to the
last unprotected, unpitied soul! These
are the murders that stain the hands
of the Kaiser, his advisers and min
ions. These outrages were perpetrated
on neutral vessels when all that civ.
ilized warfare gave the Germans a
right to do even with the merchant
vessel under a hostile flag, was to
stop it at sea and make it prize OF
war
To kill the civilians on board, even
under a hostile flag, was nothing but
unmitigated murder. And these mur-
ders were committed in order that we
might be enslaved! Having the
right to take the sea with his fleet.
but being afraid to do so for fear he
might lose it, and being unable by
fair means to stop the selling of our
products to his enemies the Kaiser
declared that he would do it by the
foulest methods ever resorted to in
war. He declared the sea closed
and that he would keep it closed, not
by war, but by murder.
To have submitted would have cost
us dear in prosperity but that would
have been the least of our loss.
We should have had to grovel be-
fore the German government.
We should have had to accept muir
