Putnam, Yankee Flying
Ace, Brave Fighter in
Air; Fought at Rheims

Washington. Sept. 20. Lieuten-
ant David E. Putnam. the American
flying ace who lost his life in battle
with seven German planes on the
Lorraine front on Wednesday, was
one of the bravest men in the avia-
tlon service. He was transferred TO
the American aerial corps early last
June. His achievement June 10 of
bringing down five German airplanes
in one day has been eclipsed only
once during the war. Aviator Rene
Fonck. of the French army, having
destroyed six machines in one day.
Lieutenant Putnam's last aerial vic
tory was reported September ..
Announcing the decoration of Put
nam, the Journal Official of Paris
said:
by his skill and daring and con-
tempt for danger" says the citation.
he has shown himself a pilot of the
very first rank. Recently, in attack
ing patrol of nine enemy machines.
he downed one machine. and the
next day, while on escort duty, he
boldly attacked a patrol of eight en-
emy airplanes and downed two thus
winning his fifth and sixth victories.
Three times he has been mentioned
in dispatches"
After seven months training ani
one months service at the front he
fought his first battle and won il on

cago. flying in the same patrol. said
Putnam saved him during this fight.
A week later he had another mar
row escape when, in a fight with four
two-seaters. his machine was shot
almost to pieces. He just managed
to dive under his adversaries and
plane back to the French lines.
Putnam began work with the
squadron of Lieutenant Madon on a
monoplane March IA, and the same
day ran into a patrol of fifteen Ger
mans. Knowing he had the advan-
tage in speed he decided to make a
quick attack, then dive. All the Ger
mans followed him down-one of
them at least. in a dizzy nose spin.
making the third success officially
credited 20 him. The next day he
downed two-seater in a fight with
two; his gun jammed and he had to
dive away from the second
The great fight that made Putnam
famous in France was over the bat
t1ef1eld of Rheims on June 5. In a
half hour combat he shot down five
of an enemy squadron of ten alba
trosses. 1t was close and difficult
work, for the Germans maneuvered
skillfully and closed in on him until
he could see pilots plainly in their
seats as their machines passed un-
der him. He waved his hand to one
of them and the German returned
the salute in the thick of the fight.
All Putnam says about it is that re
kept out of range as best he could
and watched closely every chance to
fire. He finally got into good posi-
ton and the German machines be-
gan to fall. Five of them crashed
before the fight was over.

Washington, March 1.-Japan's pro-
posal for action in Siberia has crowded
German Chancellor Won Hertling's 8
speech into second place in considera-
ton of officials here and there were
indications today that there were de-

show themselves in some arrangement
Of an international character to pre-
vent the seizure by Germans Of stores
at Vladivostok.
The expectation that President Will
son was planning to address congress
soon In reply to Won Hertlings speech
was dissipated today when it was said
the president probably does not con-
slider it necessary to reply for the
present at least. Before the president
speaks there doubtless will be an ex-

Outward indications today were thai
the president was studying the ques-

London. March 1.-Japan's proposals
with regard to Siberia has brought the
questio, 5fs&Jasan's participation in
military operations to the forefront
here. Some newspapers display con-
tributed articles setting forth the Jap
anese view Of the situation. The bulk
Of the opinion favors Japan's proposed
action without qualification and the
plan Is made in some quarters that she
should be given a free hand. The
Morning Post says:
Just as the United States was
forced to a policy of intervention by
the German menace in the west, SO is
Japan aroused by the menace In the
east 1t is to be hoped the allies will
treat Japan with confidence and the
hearty spirit Of cooperation she has
the right to expect az an ally"
The Daily News hopes the allies
very carefully will consider all that is
involved in the proposals. Some of
the papers back up their stand by the
danger to British interests in the sub
lection Of Russia. They recall the
terms of the Anglo Japanese alliance,
by which Japan undertakes to guard
peace and tranquility in the far east.
