Ness OF THE DESP|CAbLE HUN
DESTROYING HUN A1RPLANES

With the American Army in
France, May 27.-The activities Of
the American air squadron operat-
ing in the sector northwest of Toul
seem to have had results even more
effective than was anticipated. When
it first began its work there were be-
tween thirty and fifty summonses to
activity coming in to our aviators
daily. Gradually the number Of calls
has dwindled until for several days
the average has been only two day.
From a strictly technical military
standpoint, the operations Of the
American airmen have two objects.
The first is to kill off the opposing
airmen, while the second is to keep
the enemy from flying his machines
on the American side of the line and
thus preventing him from taking
photographs, regulating artillery
fire or in any way securing informa-
ton. The American airmen have
done much toward accomplishing
both objects. -
The records show that the new
squadron has already taken cred
table toll Of enemy pilots and OBJ
servers, while for German airplane
to come over the American lines now
is rare occurrence. This situation
contrasts sharply with that which
prevailed when these aviators first
started operating. 1t was a rare oc-
casion then when one or more ene<
my airplanes was not circling over
or behind the American lines, oper-
ating with almost complete freedom.
Morever, according to information
obtained from German officer avia-
tor brought down within the last few
days, the fear of the American avia->
tors has been instilled into the Ger
man flying corps. This prisoner fur
nished the information that the line
from St. Mihiel to Pont-A-Mousson,
within which the American airmen>
are operating, had come to be re-
garded as a dangerous place for Ger
man pilots. Our fighting aviators
could not possibly have heard a more
welcome tribute. u

Germans Make Slight Gains

Paris, May 27.-The Germans opened their at
tack this morning on the southern front between
Rheims and Scissors in Flanders on the north
side of the Lys salient. While it is too early to
discount the German intent it is certain that his
aim is to push the British on the north and break
through to the channel ports and to the south
break through the French and Americans and
force his way towards Paris.
March and halted in April has begun today. The
fighting which has been directed in the neighbor-
hood Of Amiens is expected to reach out until i'll
cover wider sector. The attack on this front
would indicate that the Germans are making a
drive here either for the purpose of making di-
version or trying to break the line at this point.
His move however has been anticipated since
General Foch has placed strong reserves to meet
his efforts.
At this place the strategical position of the en-
emy was the weakest and it may be for the pur-
pose Of improving that he begins the offensive
along the Disc and the Aydlette rivers.

PRESIDENT wilson Will
ADDRESS Congress To-Day
WAR REVENUE QUESTION
Washington, May 27.-President Wilson will
address Joint sessions of Congress at one o'clock
today on the question Of war revenues.

Washington, May 27.-President Wilson today
took charge of the war tax legislation by appear
ing Unexpectedly at joint session of the House
and Senate today. He stated in speech Of not
more than Is minutes duration couched IN direct
and concise utterances that unless Congress ar;
ranged this matter before adjournment that it
would be necessary to continue it's sessions. He
|could not make drafts on the treasury or antlc-
pate the needs Of the situation that now contronts
us unless he knew what to rely on.
He referred to system of profteering which
was in evidence and stated that if there was no
way of reaching this through the conscience that
a way should be found through taxation
He appealed to members Of Congress to lay
aside politics and to approach the question with
a firm conviction that the heart of the people are
with them and would help them meet the Ques-
tions in the right way He said it is not fair to the
country to wait until next year and then to adjust
the tax schedule but that it should be done now.
After he had finished speaking on the subject Of
taxes the President entered into general ex-
preston of his views on various matters Amorg
the mhe said that as he left the White House he
had learned of the German offensive and that
this fact added to the responsibility Of Congress
and the solemnity of the hour.
