There is always room for a man OF

A feeble man can see the farms that

Rabbi Stephen II. Wise of the Free
Synagogue, New York, has become a
shipbuilder in the yards at Stamford,
Conn. DR.. Wise is working a as com
mon laborer as an example to his
eighteen-year-old son, and has agreed
to rehani ION the job until fall.
From other workme nat the ship
yard it wa slearned that Dr. Wise re-
ports to work at 7 o'clock each morn
ing and quits with the other men at
4:30 in the afternoon Thus far he
has not worked overtime. The other
men speak highly of him. Some of
them call him good scout" and say
that he is the youngest old man"
they ever saw.
He does not spare himself in the
least" said one today. There are
no frills to him and he puts on no airs.
His son is a good deal like the daddy

MORE BOMBING PLANES

Almost every airplane used by the
Allies soon will carry bombs. Experts

will be increased if a bombing device
is added to every plane sent out, even
though it be of type once intended
only for recognizance work, and Amer
LEANS now training in England are
being as carefully drilled in bombing
as in handling a machine gun.
Lessons learned during the resis-
lance offered in the recent offensive
have served to increase the aIreaGy
high regard of both British and Amer
lean officers in the service for the
lowflying. bomb carrying craft, and.
over the camps and countryside where
aviators are being trained, planes are
in evidence almost every hour, dipping
down from high in the air and skimm-
ing the nearby country, barely miss
ing treetops and houses. 1t is the new
lesson they are learnig, and observers
BACK from the front where the Allied
planes did such remarkable work not
only in scouting and distracting the
enemy but actually in breaking up
formations and at points checking
the onward movement have urged con-
certration on that form traing.
British trainers. detailed to Amer.
lean aviation camp, have been liberal
in their praise on the new filters from
overseas, their only criticism being
that Americans are "a bit too keen.
Their tendency has been to go in for
flying stunts rather too early in train
ing but even this the trainers have
admitted is valuable fault, although
one not to be encouraged
The Cordele dispatch. (Cordele, Ga.) 19??-1971, 1918-08-02


1t has been pointed out to the Amer
leans that team work as we'll as in
dividual efficiency is prime requisite
and the Americans have steadied them
selves to the routine their trainers
have found makes for general advan-
cement if not for individual applause.
Fancy flying, the acrobatic work that
once found favor and drew heavy
rate receipts at aerial exhibitions in
the United States, still Is taught but
the learning of that form of fl. - also
has come to be regarded merely as
routine and wholly incident to the
steady, low flying desirable for attack
ing camps and troops in formation.
Accidents have occurred in the camps
where the Americans are being train
ed and and few men have been killed
but the records show that the per-
centage is far less in England than
in the United States. Those in training
are inclined to attribute the difference
more to luck than to anything else
although there also is pointed out the
probability that the average airplane
used in England is a better made mac
hine than the average that has been
used in the United States.
The bombing devices being attach
ed to virtually every plane is not
the contrivance that was used in the
earlier days of the war That used then
was little more than mechanism
that released the projectile, allowing
it to fall at a point approximately
near the target. The device now being
used is one with which the operator
may with much practice become al
most as proficient in craftsmanship
as an artilleryman is with his gun.
Almost every light plane will carry
bombs of at least 25 pounds and from
the heavier types there will behurled
the huge containers of high explosive
not materially different from those
used by the Germans in some of the
more recent raids.

sWINpLINe THE NEGRO

Exploitation Of the southern negro
who has reached new stage of pro-
sporty as a result of record cotton
prices end high wages of the past few
years, has CARED such proportions
that federal and state Authorities are
preparing for a drive on persons who
swindle the negro out OF government
war securities.
Interruptions salemen have flooded
the south, telling the negro that his
liberty bonds, war saving and thrift
stamps are of less than face value
and offering to take them in exchange
for oil or mine stock or dazzling bits
of jewelry.
Negroes all through the south bong
hit freely of government securities,

more money for their cotton than
they ever expected to possess and
those who worked for wages in the
fields were paid twice the wages of
few years ago.
A letter just sent out by Prof. E. L.
Blackshear of the negro extension
work in Texas says negroes are be-
ing offered cheap and worthless goods
with the assurance that their saving
stamps and liberty bonds are not of

in the state urging immediate action
to stamp out the evil by campaign
of education.
The investigation so far has not
disclosed enemy propaganda behind
the exploitation but the injurious eff
feet on the government campaigns,
