ARMOUR PLEDGES

Union Stockyards Heads
Protest Against Partial
Government Control
fBy Associated Pregg.l

Chicago, Aug. 9.-Protests against
the recommendation Of federal trade
commission that the government as
sumo partial control Of the packing
industry were made today by some
Of the heads of concerns in the Union
Stock Yards, while others expressed
much interest in the proposal.
J. Ogden Armour, president Of the
Armour & Co., after pointing out that
the government had been in control
of the packing industry since No
vember /, 1917, said the statement
made by him at the beginning Of the
war that the United States govern
ment can have Armour & Co., and
every employee and official thereof, if
need be-" was reiterated "a thousand
times more emphatically'.
Edward Morris, president Of Nor
ris & Co, said the commission evil

stock yards and the packing indus
try in the hands of the railroad ad-
ministration. He added that with
profits limited to per cent on the
capital invested, I'VE cannot see
where conditions would be i'm

Thomas e Wilson. president Of
Wilson & Co., said that If any new
methods for the benefit Of the pub

fullest extent.
Louis F. Swift, president of Swift

Gumligen, Switzerland, Aug. TO-
One of the most interesting charac-
tiers in Switzerland today is DR.. Will
helm MuehIon, whose recent revela-
tons of German political and diplo-
matte secrets Of the days before the
war-at a time when he was in con-
fidential touch with the high coun-
ellis Of the imperial German govern
ment-led to official surveillance
over his movements and finally to his
expulsion from his native land.
His disclosures, which have created
sensations in entente capitals. have
been regarded in many quarters as
faithful interpretations of events
which contributed to the outbreak Of
the war and as conclusive proof that
the German efnperor's Vaccinations
were responsible for the world con-
fiict. They led to a German govern
ment statement in the Reichstag

sponsible, and today he lives the life

DR.. Muehlon was asked today how
he could be an opponent Of militarism

OF
ALLIED AIRMEN
CAUSES HUNS TO
IN GROUPS
Germans Fly By Night,
And Never Appear Ex-
cept In Numbers

British Air Force Headquarters in
France, Aug. 10.-(Correspondence
of The Associated Press)-There
have been many signs recently of
Of extreme uneas:ness by the Ger
man high command regarding the
increasing ascendancy Of the allied
airmen on the western front. This
has been especially evident, since the
American airmen have begun to ap-
pear in force and have proved them
selves of the same mettle as the
French and British filters.
1t has become a commonplace
among British airmen that their op-
ponents will not face combat in the
air unless in strength Of three or
TOUR to one, and German. prisoners
have told Of German airmen being
punished by their flight commanders
for returning to their airdromes
still laden with bombs and ammuni-
ton which they had been ordered to
drop over the British lines. 1t is be-
coming increasingly hard to find a
German atrman over the allied side
Of the lines in the daytime, as is
proved by the Germans own admis-
sion that when they do manage to
Erlng down an allied machine It is
almost always over their own terri
tory.
Perhaps the most striking evil
dence of German official anxiety re-
garding the allied superiority in the
air is to be found in the official
German wireless news. This, Nhile
always imaginative are rarely accur-
ate, has Of late been singularIy wild
ana full of fiction regarding the
t situation in the air. In an effort to
counterfeit the, depressing effect of
the real facts Of the situation, the
German wireless editors make the
widest statems hts, bordering almost
on humor
Thus a recent copy Of the German
wireless report says: Superior
methods of flying and greater skill
nave secured for the German Air
Force successes on a scale such as
were never known before" The
same statement refers in glowing
terms to the reckless attacking
spirit" of the pilots of the German
chasing planes-a phrase which pro-

who Of late have found that even
one OF the reconnaissance machines

German machine which is not ac-
companied by three or four of Its
own kind.
IF Germany is really pleased with
her air record for the past few
months" remarked a British SQUAD
ron leader to the correspondent,
there is no reason for us to com
plain. We ask nothing better than
that Germany should go on having
the same kind of success in future
months" ...-
He took as an example the report
for May, which lay open on his desk.
This report" he explained. deals
with the British air fighting alone,
and has no reference to the fine air
work of the French. Italians and
AmerRans. During the, month the
British brought down 1893 German
machines in aerial combat, and 90
by fire. from the ground. while 100
more were driven down out OF con-
troll and probably destroyed. Dur
ing the same period 1873 British
machines failed to return to their
airdromes." -.a. .. 49,

All Rnown devices were employed
to make the girl reveal the names

steadfastly refused, cIinging to the
belief, that the, man who gave her
the dynamite would attempt her
rescue. After several months. dur
ing which no word came from her
lover, she made a full statement to
the authorities and her bail was re-
duced to $4,000. Mrs. Vincenza de
Angelo, a wealthy Italian woman,
took, pity on the friendless girl,
signed her bond and took Gabrielle
to- her home to await trial.
1t required several weeks for. news
of the girls whereabouts to filter
