The prosecution has prepared photo

tended to submit this evidence to-day,
but the accused fier's counsel requested
delay until the services OF handwriting
experts could be obtained.
Until to-day. the British newspa pers

which has been In session since March
"a. So many reporters attended he
trial to-day that It was necessary to bar
all Of them out except the agency repre-
sentatives.
Miss Lillian Vaucours, sister Of Major
Vaucours, whose squadron was said by
Capt Chamberlain to have been the one
he visited at the time of his exploits,
saw an account of the trial In the papers
yesterday. and as her brothers name
was mentioned she went TO American
Naval Headquarters, much asitated, to

summoned Immediately as a witness, ana

PARIS, April 3.-Many American
aviators are thinking seriously of enter
ing the Polish army. for a time at least.
In the search for excitement which was
denied to them with the signing Of the
ermistice. The Poles are making efforts
TO recruit officers, particularly aviation
officers, from the allied armies and are
Offering considerable Inducements.
The French and British Governments
are encouraging this and are offering
to continue on their present payrolls all
officers who transfer.
Many young Americans, who we're
Just getting their hand in when the
armistice was signed, haven't had
enough Of war and are likely to take
this chance, particularly since many OF
them have received letters from former
comrades who have returned to the
United States advising them that II
isn't easy to get q job at home and
laying emphasis on the fact that they
miss the excitement of the life In France.
Officers of the Seventy-seventh Division

s07th Infantry, Col. Eugene Houghton
Of Racine. Wis, has reversed Kosciusko
BY becoming a General in the Polish
army. probably the first American to

Information gathered within Germany
SHOWS that German aircraft factories had
been ordered TO have 10000 more air
planes ready for this summers fighting
than the German air service ever had
before. This was called their "Ameri-
can programme"
After the Unitci States announced
how many thousand airplanes were TO
be built for shipment to France the
German military officials called the air.
craft factory heads into conference and
told them that at all costs Germany
must keep pace with the Allies The
factory men were told to draw on every

In order to save planes for war SER
vice the German training planes had
wooden wheels and wire shock absorbers
and all sorts OF substitutes. This re-
suited in an alarmingly high death rate
among German student fiiers.
Had the war continued the big allied
spring offensive would have been I'M

Nothing in this respect Is more re-

in Russia whom the Bolshevists really
fear and has such ascendancy over the

President Wilson once SAID the allied
treatment Of Russia would be the "acid
test OF allied conduct. He does not
like to be reminded Of his own declara-
