Capt Lipsner was quoted yesterday
as saying he resigned because ne had
been informed that novices were 10 De
placed in charge of important
branches of the service and that spe-
cial airplanes are to be built for ca1s-
rying mail.
No Extensive Alterations.
"The statement that the Post Office
Department has considered or author
lied extensive alterations on military
airplanes which the War Department
is turning over to it has no fouh0a-
ton except in your imagination. MT.
Turleson said in his letter to capt.
Lipsner. Except for the applcatlon
of skis to the running gear OF planes,
to facilitate landing in snow. as rec
commended by you. and for expert
mental modification of three DE nav

and minor modification to facilitate

ALASKA YOUTHS REGISTER BETWEEN JULY 2--SEPT. 3
HE DOES GOOD
 WORK AGAINST
 GERMAN PLANES

PARIS, June 15.--It is reported that Sergeant David Putnam of Brookline, Massachusetts, downed , German planes on June 10. The sergeant is a member of the Lafay- cite Escadrille and is one of the most efficient aviators in the flying corps.
 Three of the planes reported to have been downed by Putnam on June 10 have been officially credited to him. An investigation is being held to determine if he can be given official credit for the other two. It is thought that these planes will be officially accounted for, as 1t is not doubted that they were downed by the dauntless American.
 With the official credit of these five planes in June the Yankee ser geant will have a credit of thirteen German planes destroyed This to- tai will place him as the American ace of aces, supplanting Lieutenant Frank Bayliss of New Bedford. Mass. Lieut.. Bayliss now holds the official record for planes destroyed by an his total being twelve.

ALASKAN BOYS
 BEEN ALLOWED
 LOTS OF TIME

WASHINGTON, D. C.. June 15.--- An order has been issued by Pro- vost Marshal General Crowder in reference to the registration of Al
 askan youths attaining their ma
 jority since June 5, 1917, in which 1t is stated that these boys are given two months time to register The date of registration has been set for the period between July ? and September 8. This extended time was allowed on account of the many difficulties in registering the men of the northern territory. A great number of the youths will have to travel some distance to reach the place of registration, and it would be utterly impossible for them to be there on certain date
 The young men who became 21 since June 5, 1917, were registered in the United States on June 5, this year. Registration for Porto Rico has been set for July 5. The date for the registration of the youths in Hawaii has not yet been announced by the provost marshal. All young men in Alaska who have attained the age of 21 since June 1917 will be required to call at the nearest local board during July and Au
 gust and register for military duty.

AMERICANS ARE
 FAR SUPERIOR
 TO THE ENEMY

LONDON, June 15.-A correspond. ent of the Reuters news agency stationed with the American troops on the Marne. wires that the Yan- kees are more than a match for the German soldiers. He states that the Americans resemble to great ex- tent the Canadian soldiers in their method of combat, more than any other troops on the European battle field. It is these Canadian troops that famous war correspondent termed fighting son-o guns"
 The Reuters correspondent says: While the Americans are full of tenderness and by nature inclined to be lenient and mercful, they will avenge their comrades who have been slain by treachery. These troops from overseas have no mercy on men who do not fight straight, and they express the utmost con tempt for the tactics of the Boche.
 "Whenever he American troops meet the enemy the Huns are in evitably beaten, even though the odds are numerically in their favor" The correspondent says that the British and French soldiers on the western front have nothing but the highest praise for the Yankee boys. During the action on the battlefield in which the Americans have participated, they have shown themselves to be excellent fighting men, and though a. great percentage of them have been in military service not over twelve months, they are far superi- or to the trained troops under the German crown prince.

EXPLOSIONS IN FACTORY CAUSE
 IMMENSE LOSS

AMSTERDAM, June 15.--A series of explosions occurring in the large muniti0n works at Kiev, the capital of Ukraine, was the cause of great damage. There were 12 large ex. plosions, followed by several smaller ones. The shells literally lombard ed the city, falling in all directions The famous Scjerinetz cathedral was almost totally destroyed by being struck by the big gun ammunition The walls and roof of this place oi worship collapsed and many fine works of art hanging in the stiuc ture were completely ruined.
 Several houses near the biz mu. milton factory were blown completely over. These houses immediately burst into flames, which spread and caused further damage. The explo. sions. occurring in quick succession came entirely without warning, and as result hundreds of people are dead. The entire munition works is virtually in ruins.
 It is reported that these explo. siOns are the work of agents of the BOlsheviki in treacherous plot against the Ukraine leader. No place in the city was safe from the falling shells. As result of the explosions a great part of the town is in ruins
