AIRMEN TO FLY
: OVER PARADE
Marine, Camp Meade and
Engineers Bands Will
Also Participate.

Led by three bands and escorted
by both army airplanes and navy
hydroplanes, the Free Milk for France
parade will pass the White House
this afternoon Rt $3.50, and promises
to be one of the most picturesque
ever held in Washington.
Ambassador and Nine. Jusserand
will review the parade with the COM
mittee of the organization as it passes
the Ellipse.
1t is the purpose of the parade to
impress upon Washingtonians the
need for milk TO feed starving babies
of France.
At least four hydroplanes from the
United States Naval Station at Ana
costa will fly for the benefit of the
cause. Lieut. Commander Murray,
commanding officer of the station.
announces this is the first public ap-
pearance of the naval airmen for
a public demonstration. The men
| who will fly in the hydrupIanes are
Lieut.. Connolly. Ensign Falvey. En-
sign OFT and Ensign Allen. After
the parade they will drop literature
over the town.
The Army and Navy have given
their support to the demonstration
by supplying hands. The Marine
Band. the Camp Meade Band and the
Engineers Band have been loaned
for the occasion. One hundred ma
, rines will also parade.
Motion pictures will be taken of the
parade which are intended to be used
in the national campaign. A scenario

number OF floats have been ar
ranged. The women have taken in
finite pains to weave tasty floral
decorations about the number of au-
tomobiles and trucks which are TO be
used in the parade and its pleasing
effects are assured.
In speaking of the parade last night
Mrs. Harold Minott. chairman OF the
local comittee. said: I'VE are going
to do everything possible to impress
on the persons who witness the parade
the necessity for saving the infants
of France. We want also to empha-
size the importance OF sending milk
| to our wounded soldiers, thousands
of whom are in French hospitals"
Another important feature of this
educational parade is that we hope II
will impress on the people who see
it the need for the development of the
! dairying industry of this country
The material used in the parade is
the donation of local merchants who
have loyalty supported the cause.

Tool Producers, in Stormy
Session, Fail to Agree

Representatives of the wool pro-
Icers. the wool fabric industry and
he wool yarn industry were in con-
krenCe with the War Industries
pard yesterday seeking some def
Ffte plan for steering the wool in
ustries back to a peace basis. The
Government had practically taken over
|t,e entire wool supplies of the coun-
tn. but with the cancellation of the
big army contracts. an enormous re-
.serve OF wool fabrics is released for
Gillian needs.
The conference was a stormy one
and no agreement on a program to
be recommended to the government
was reached. Further conferences
with other branches OF the wool in
mnSstries will be held, and the board
hopes within a few weeks to have
an agreed program from the wool
trade, on which it can proceed.

New Bavarian Government
Reveals Huns Part in Be-
ginning Great War.
FACTS LONG DISPUTED
Internal Policy Must Be
Strengthened Before Ne
gotiations Can Begin.

London, Nov. 96.-Germany sinned
as a whole. fought and was beaten
as a whole, and as a whole must
suffer, is tne opinion of the English
press. This feeling has been intensi-
fed by the Bavarian revelations OF
Germany's part in starting the
war, contained in Count Lerchenfeld's
kilograms to Count Won Hertling in
1914.
In commenting on the revelations
the London Times says, in part:
''On July 2s. 1917. we were able to
give a detailed account of "a meeting
July 5. 1914 which was referred to
few days earlier in the Reichstag
by Herr Haase. The narrative COM
municated to us states that on this
date Emperor William and his chief
advisers discussed the main points in
the ultimatum to Serbia, recognized
that its delivery meant war with Rus
sia and definitely resolved TO face this
consequence, which also. of course.
meant war with France. The story
was Indignantly denied in Germany.
Today We have its main points es-
tablished by documentary evidence
published on the authority Of the
new Bavarian government. 1t will
be interesting to see whether the
new Berlin government will complete
the tale.
Germany has been challenged
again and again to produce the CORE

accomplice of Vienna and of Berlin.

she supported until it failed. She

eyes OF the allies by publications
blackening the character of her con-

pie did not support the policy of their

liberal institutions and more political
power. II they condemned war why

That organized labor intends its

here last night when the appoint

Federatio of Labor to attend an in

Even though labor shall have no

The war Just won was called a war
of industry and all governments bow

of victory. This same labor believes
that having won the war. it should
have part in the discussions which
will determine the conditions of the
