AIRPLANE MAKES PERFECT FLIGHT
 WITHOUT PILOT
Secretary Baker Tells of Wonderful Invention Just
 Perfected.

Fort Worth, Tex, March 24.-Und- CT automatic control. an airplane ca pablo of carrying heavy load and without human being aboard to guide it, has made trip of more than a hundred miles and landed within a very short distance of the point it was sent to reach.
 This mechanical invention in avia- tion development, intended as an ial- strument of war and one which has been kept secret until now, was men, toned by Newton D. Baker, secreta- ny of war, during his speech Monday in Fort Worth, when he and General Peyton c. March, chief of staff of the United States army, were here to vls- it Camp Bowie on an inspection tour. Secretary Baker referred to the in- vention when impressing his hearers with the possible horrors of future wars if there be no league of nations.
 Is American Patent.
 The invention is an automatic guide for airplanes and was made in Amerl- ca, according to Mir. Baker. When Une war eHueu, LHc puVculIol Ade. been so nearly perfected that in ac- tual test an airship without an oc- cupant was successfully sent on a trip of over 100 miles. An airplane was first sent out under control of pilot without making landing, re- turning to it's point of origin after To- eating the distance objective for the { test Then was sent out under auto matic control another airship to lant at the designated point and it effected the landing so close to that point tha if it had been a shell it would have been considered a good shot.
 Secretary Baker did not explain tho exact nature of the invention. but h' made it clear that the war depart ment considers it one of the mos wonderful pieces of mechanism fol i wars destructive purposes.
 Such a device, the secretary said i will never be necessary to use in wa ! if the league of nations is formed
 flor the league will save the worl' from repitition of the horrible ca tastrophe through which it has jus passed"

TRIAL OPENS IN LONDON FOR
 CHAMBERLAIN
Jockey For Admission of
 Reports of Exploits.
BRITISH FIRST TO
 DOUBT REPORTS
Flyer Was Too Reluctant To Give Comprehensive Verbal
 Report.

London. March 24.-The opening day of the court-martial of Captain Edmund G. Chamberlain, of San An tonic, Texas. an officer of the United States marine corps, the story of; whose exploit in bringing down a number of German machines while he was on a visit to the British front has been under investigation some time, was spent largely in 'jockeying o nthe admission of reports of Cham berlains alleged exploits and rec concentrations for distinctions. Don aid Harper, counsel for the defense, objected to the manner in which the judge advocate planned to get them into the record
 The court-martial is being held at American navy headquarters.
 Lieutenant Commander w. A. Ed wards ViveAdmiral Sims. aide for aviation, told of receiving official re- ports of the exploits as they were widely published and of preparing a letter for Admiral Sims, recommend ing Chamberlain for the medal of shonor and promotion in rank. The letter was forwarded to Washington. He said the British Air Ministry be- gan to doubt the truth of the exploits and investigated the matter last fall.
 DiSremembers Letter.
 Mir. Harper tried to prove by Com mander Edwards that letter had been received at naval headquarters saying that Chamberlain flew with the British squadron from June 20th to July 18th of last year. But Ed wards did not remember such a let ter
 It was understood that several members of the 20Sth Royal Air Squadron are returning to London on Thursday and the defense expects to call some of them in an attempt to prove that Captain Chamberlain was attached to that squadron dur ing the time mentioned by Mir. Har- per today.
 The only other witness was Cap tain F. T. Evans, in command of the Poliac air station, who said that when the house naval affairs com mittee was at Poliac, Captain H. l. Cone, commanding United States na- val aviation in France, instructed Captain Evans to get Chamberlaln's then untold story. Captain Evans said that Chamberlain was too re- luctant to give comprehensive yer

COTTON GROWERS ARE TRADING ON
 MISERY OF WORLD
Governor Allen Refuses To Aid Reduction of Cotton
 Acreage.

Topeka, Kan, March 24.-The cot ton growers of the South, in their eff fort to limit the acreage of cotton to maintain high prices are trading up- on the misery of the world,' Gov ernor Henry J. Allen, charged today in letter refusing an invitation from the South Carolina Cotton Associa- tion to attend a conference at which reports of the campaign to reduce cotton acreage will be received The better was addressed to J. s. Wanna maker, Columbia, S. C., chairman of the Association.
 Easing his conclusions upon gov Grnment crop reports, Governor AL len estimated that cotton growers are making as much money with cotton at 35 sents pound as Kansas farm CTS are making from their wheat
 "Kansas farmers are doing every thing in their power to incresae the wheat yield so that everyone may prosper but it seems the cotton grow CTS are trying at the same time to prevent the same people from having clothes" he declared.
 Is Unspeakable.
 That any group or men, Wnlle the world is still grapping with the tre- mhe4ldous problems arising from shortage of staple commodities should begin a deliberate organization to re- tard production, is unspeakable,' he continued.
 Ut would be just as baleful for the wheat farmers of Kansas, the corn farmers of Iowa, the hog raiaerS Of Illinois, or the livestock producers of Texas to deliberately combine to ere ate shortage in foodstuffs that the famine of the world would pay them toll, as for cotton interests of the south to combine for that purpose.
 For these reasons and because utterly lack sympathy with the pur- pose of the meeting, l will not be able to accept the invitation" he con- cluded.

Kaiser Could Not Have Been More Arbitrary. WILL FIGHT TO

RidiculcS Burlcson'S Statement That Dismissal Was Result oi
 Disobcdienre.

New York, Mar. 24.-Postmaster General Bureson's action in dismiss- ing Clarence II. Mackay as president of the Postal Telegraph Cable Com pany was characterized by Mir. Mack ay as "despotic and brutal' in d statement issued here tonight on his return from Baltimore, where he was when the dismissal notice was served at the eompany's office, here, last Saturday.
 MT. Mackay added that Civilian Hohenzollern himself could not have been more arbitrary, despotic and vlndlctive' and served notice on Mr.. Burleson that he would flight to my last dollar and to the last ditch"
 He ridiculed MT. Burleson's state ment that the dismissal "was the re suit of his failure to obey instruct ions of the postoffice department" asserting that the Postals only two failures to comply with instructions were in cases were ambiguity" of the instructions caused delay, and where the company "would have faced prosecutions with possibly heavy fines," had it obeyed
 Act Is Conspiracy.
 "This act of Mr. Burleson,' he said, lis only the continuation of delib- crate conspiracy to wreck and ruin the Postal Telegraph system and then establish monopoly of wire communication in the United States" MT. Burleson's principal acts" since taking over of the lines, he asserted, had "been increasing of long distance telephone rates in the interest of the Bell Telephone Com pany; the proposition to increase telegraph rates in the interest of the Western Union Telegraph Company; the seizure of the cables after the signing of the armistice, and the ous- 1 ting of myself and other officials of the Commercial Cable and Postal Companies and the order that the 1 Postal build no lines to compete with the Bell Telephone or Western Union without first submitting our plans to officials of those companies"

FRENCH OFFICERS
 DECLARES EX-CzAR
 AND FAMILY DEAD
Is Positive Bolsheviki Shot Nobility In Basement
 Of Home.

San Francisco, Calif., Mar. 24.- Confirmation of the execution of the former Emperor of Russia and his wife and daughters under particul- arly revolting conditions by bolshe- wiki troops, was made here today by General Robert c. Paris, one of the first French officers to be assigned to the Czecho- -Slovak army in Russia. General Paris is on his way home to make an official report of the occur ence to the French government. He arrived yesterday from Vladivostok.
 Nicholas and his family were shot in the basement of their house at Ekaterinburg, Siberia. The women of the once royal family were subjected to indignance before the executions took place, General Paris said.
 Evidence In House.
 "On the walls of the rooms of the house at the present time are writ ings by the bolshevists in which the former Czarina's name and those of her daughters are frequently men toned" said the General. This house is now the headquarters of General Caida, Czecho-Slovak com mander. Describing the scene attend ing the execution of the Ramonoff family, General Paris said:
 Early one morning, the Czar was ! taken from an upstairs room and stood against the wall of the base ment of the house. There he was [ shot, but not before his wife and daughters had been mistreated in ] his preseince. After that, the Czarine was shot, and then her daughters and other members of the household
 "A few days following the murder the bodies were taken under cover of night by automobiles into nearby viii lages, where they were cut into small pieces and burned separately The charred remains were found by officers of the forces opposed to the bolsheviki Remains of the burn ed clothing also were found. Proof that the garments were those of the Romanoffs was given by the fact that the diamonds which which the Czarine and her daughters wore 1T their waists were picked up. Apar1 from this, there was ample evidence that the bodies and burned clothing were those of the royal family.
 Room Is Sealed.
 "The room in which the murder was committed is now sealed. Th' plaster on the walls shows where the rifle bullets penetrated. The bul lets were removed with bayone points. Bloodstains have been wash ed from the floor. Under the floorin, however, little pools of blood wer found. In several places in the deatl room, the blood seeped througl cracks in the floor.
