LEADING BRITISH ACE PROVES TO BE AVIATOR
 BLIND IN ONE EYE

LONDON. June l9- The late Ma jor F.. w. Mannock was the leading "ace" of the British aviation corps but it was not until months after the armistice that the fact was known and he never will be officially credit ed by the Air Ministry with being England's premier flyer. It was tho policy of the Ministry during the war not to, proclaim individual exploits and it has not been changed since fighting ceased.
 The record of Mannock's eighteo7 months service is most unusual. He started by outwitting examining phy' ,icians in concealing the fact that he was blind in one eye. At 20 years of age he was older than most of the pi. lots in training but he seemed to lack nothing required of successful air fighter and soon qualified and went to France.
 Immediately he adopted tactics pc culiar to himself and it finally was a deviation from those tactics tha' brought him down. He always flew very high and enticed his adversary into a high fight but, in bringing down his soyentv-third German. he chased his falling foe too near the ground and a bullet from an anti-aricraft gun ended his career.
 Officers of the Royal Air Force have acclaimed him the greatest air tactician in the service. He had none of the excentricites prevalent among successful French aviators but he was "icntific. persistent and dogged. One f his brother officers recently said hat hc had seen MannCCk stalk Hun Cor an hour or more. attempting to gradually draw him higher and then when the slightest opportunity for ad- vantage presented itself he was on the foe like cat.
 Although Mannock was presented with the Distinguished Service Order and the Military Cross it was not un- ,il the thousands of records of pilots were checked in the Air Ministry here hat it was known that he had more Germans to his credit than ans otne' British aviator. This fact was allowed to become known at the ministry but not officially.

fplly burned and twisted lymg ,n ' compound and another either "> d young man or woman just outside t0' rburch compounded. Several group oS pcoplc were huddlcd under lltVt straw shelters on the hillside with d few of their pitful belongings ao"n' thcm. They were mostly women some olJ others young mothers with ha' hics but all sunk in th" dull apatny or object misery and despair. Mr. un. lor,vool an American missionary Wh' .on-cd to them in their own 'an"A"' hronrh, the story of what had hap pened.
 "Thc day bn'orc wc arrived sol dicrs came to the villac2 and ord"rc' oil Inc male Christians to gather a' the church. When about 20 were IF tho church tho soldiers opened fire O" them with rifles and then entered tN" church and finished them off with swords and bayonCtS, After this th"N sct fire to the church anG to houses which otherwise would not have been burned"
 One Korean told the correspondent he was alivc because he was not a Christian and was not in the church, Iotcr when the correspondent made second trip to Chcam-ni with Mir. Rov' ls the British consul and party of seven including several missionaries he said, "Wc photographed freely without interference but when We started to tall; to tho natives a police man would sumter up and tho Korean would freeze up. They were in fcar of what might happen later if they were seen talking to us"
 The party however, divided mp an ! obtained many interviews as th" coy rcSnondcnt learned it on his first v's,- They were told that two of those lI'l. ed in or near the church were wom"n who went to that building to 'earn what was happening to their huS- bands.
 The party headed by the British consul then visited Soochum and found the village had been burned. The Kor. cans told the visitors that they wer; awakened in the night by finding their homes on fire. When they ran out they were struck with swords anj bavoneted or shot. None were killed but several were wounded and we saw one man whose arm had been laid open with q sword. A church and thirty houses had been burned here but n attempt had been made to clean up the others.
 The Rev. Stacy l.. Roberts an An. erican Presbyterian missionary stat toned at Pycng Yang has issued ( statement asserting that more than 100 Koreans were shot or beaten to death in Tyung-ju and church ther" was burned by Japanese.
 In another village eight miles away another Christian church and an aca demy for boys burned by Japanese So'' dierS after the contents such as "on- ches. iovcS and mats were carried away and put to use in the govern ment school at Tyung-ju.
