Of obtaining the best engineer avail

called in Hall, very practical man, ana

and on low compression; but the hlsh
compression motor is not perfected,
and the one now being manufactured
is not adapted for high altitude Tying.
Much has ben said about delay. II
has been disappointing. But the disap-
po!ntment may have come from the
indiscrect promises not to call them
silly. based probably on failure 10
realize the possible delays IN produc.
ton that might be due TO several
causes. Among these are the inherent
difficulties of the task and the many
changes due TO the factor of constant
change in the standard and types OF
airplane called for by the United
States military authorities in France.
when this country entered the war
it had no industry producing an ar
plane UP to the standard of the day
and there were no airplane engineers

allies have not sent a complete set at

are at war If the war is to be won,
America must win it and to do this
every man, woman and child must be
saturated with it. The battle will not
be won on the front line and only in
part on the battle field" said Captain
Sands. Much of 1t will be fought and

behind the lines"
Captain Sands scoffed at tales of
the bad influence Of army life on the
men. Barring the possibility that your
boy may be killed." he said, ''he is bet
ter off in the United States army to-
day than he would be in his own home.
Everything possible is being done for

General Pershirg to
Command British and
French Troops Late,

Washington, May 17.-Gcneral Per
shing probably soon will he command
ing French and British troops as the
process of brigading American units
with their allies on the western front
goes forward.
AS If exemplifying unity of command
and action into which the United
States and its co-belligerents have en-
tered, it became known here that
whenever American troops predomi-
nate in the brigaded divisions as the
process goes on, these divisions, under
present plans. will be turned over to
General Pershing's command.
Speed Troop Training.
This plan would accomplish several
things which the military authorities
consulting upon it regard as very de-
sirable.
1t would rapidly increase the size Of
the American fighting command on the
battle line; it would contribute ire
mendously to the spirit of unity and
concerted effort, and surround Ameri-
can troops with seasoned veterans and
school them 70 be re-brigaded later
with fresh American troops coming 10
France
In this way the efficiency of the
British and French forces is expected
to be increased and the work Of build
ing UP d great. fully trained and COM
pletely equipped fighting force in
France is expected to be fastened.
Foch Commands Italians.
In addition to this, as illustrative OF
the unity of command under which
Generalissimo Foch directs all the al
lied armies, it was stated officially
here that Foch commands the Italian
troops in Italy as fully as he does the
American. British and French troops
in France and Belgium.
It was stated also that Italy, besides
now sending troops to France in NUM-
! bers equal to those being sent from the
United States has on her fighting line
larger army more perfectly equipped
than she had before the great Austrian
drive.
| This may be explanatory Of the ap-
parent equanimity with which the al
new drive on the Italian front.
| The information that the brigadec
allied divisions in the west probably
| will be placed under the command Of
| General Pershing when the numbers Of
American troops contained in then
| predominate was taken to mean tha
| the same principle would operate wher
| the predominating numbers werf
| French or British.
