new RECORD FOR
RADIO PHONE IS
MADE BY NAVY
Secretary Daniels Talks to
AirpIane Pilot $50 Miles
from Washington Flying
at High Altitude.

Washington, March 11.-Secre-
tary Daniels talked today by radio
telephone with Ensign Harry Fa-
genwater in navy flying boat en-
route from Washington to Hampton
Roads. Communication was estab-
lished at a distance of more than
$50 miles, by far the longest trans
mission of radio telephone signals
with an airplane in fight ever
achieved.
The secretary used the ordinary
desk telephone on his desk at the
Navy department. officers in
charge of the development of radio
signaling, including Rear Admiral
Griffin, chief of the bureau of steam
engineering, were grouped around
the desk.
Mr.. Daniels spoke of his pleasure
in making a test of the constantly
improving navy apparatus and asked
the ensign how far away his machine
was. After a moments delay, the
officer replied that he was then more
than $50 miles from Washington and
flying at high altitude.
The officers voice came very in
distinctly toward the end of the
conversation as the distance in
creased. The expert at the depart
ment said the $50 miles was prac-
tically the extreme range of radio
telephone communication with an
aircraft with present equipment and
more than double any previous dis
lance covered in a similar test.

Denver Captain Urges
Great Ovations for
~ the 89th Division

New York, March 11.-That the
S9th division, which will arrive in
this country in June, should receive
a great ovation from the middle
west as a whole, is the opinion of
officers formerly with the midwest
ern unit, but who were transferred
to the 9th division, which arrived
here this week.
Capt. John Newman of Denver.
who was with the 353d infantry un-
til about three weeks ago, gives the
men Of the 89th the highest praise.
The Seth was a great division and
its men were wonderful" says Cap
tain Newman. Whenever the
Farmers got into action
both the other American divisions
and the boches knew that the mid
die west was tearing right through.

they will go into the peace treaty.
These terms provide for a sweep
ing reduction of the German milf
tary establishment down to 100000
men, with 1000 officers, the army
to be recruited by the voluntary sys-
TEN for the period of IL years. The
effect of this is to limit Germany's
military strength to less than the
number of men Switzerland has in
its army.
Other provisions in the military
terms limit the arms and munitions
Germany may possess to a quantity
sufficient for 100000 men and all
the remainder must be delivered
over or destroyed. The German
forts along the Rhine also must be
destroyed. The imperial general
staff is abolished as the result OF
reducing the force.
Foch Makes Report.
Discussion of the subject was re-
sumed by the supreme council fol-
lowing Marshal Foch's report on
Premier Lloyd Georges proposal
to reduce Germany's armed force
from 100000. as had been suggested,
to 10000 men and to substitute
voluntary for compulsory service.
Marshal Foch favored the change,
as the CONSUMPTION plan providing
for 100000 men serving one-year
terms would have given Germany a
trained army of 100000 men in 10
years.
As against this Mr.. Lloyd George
proposed to fix the enlistment term
at II years. Marshal Foch embodied
this in his report, which proposed
an army of 100000 men, but the
council finally adopted an amend
ment further reducing this figure to
100000.
Prevent CONSUMPTION.
One of Premier Lloyd Georges
main purposes in substituting vol
untary service for the CONSUMPTION
system was to pave the way for the
disappearance of the CONSUMPTION
system throughout Europe, as it was
believed that the effect of the abo-
lition of the system in Germany
would be that the other European
countries would generally follow it,
thus ending the menace of large
standing armies and their provoca-
ton to warfare.
The council has already adopted
the naval terms of the treaty, ex-
cept for few reserved provisions,
which will be discussed tomorrow.
The progress that has been made
with the work of framing the peace
treaty insures the completion of the
task by March 20. The first rough
draft will be in readiness when Pres
ident Wilson arrives in France
Thursday, and the revision will be
concluded before the twentieth, 1t is
the present purpose of the peace
conferees to cali the Germans to
Versailles soon after March 20, prob
ably from March p to March rs. |
The document then will be delivered |
to the German delegates and in case
they are not prepared to sign at once
they will be given the opportunity |
to return to Germany to consider
it and return for the formal signing |
at Versailles
This plan obviates the necessity

souri, and South Dakota should all
be proud Of the boys who put them
on the fighting map and should well
come them accordingly"
The suggestion is made here that
the grandstands erected for <the
homecoming of the 3Sth division
might be used again when the S9th
passes through Kansas City,
relatives and friends coming there
to meet the men. Camp Funston is
also mentioned as a possible point
for an official welcome. Wherever
it is to be, officers here say, the
formation of a representative COM
mittee and the planning of a big
reception to the boys who are now
in Germany is but what they de-
serve.

of holding sessions for debate at
Versailles and restricts the functions
to be conducted with the Germans
for the delivery of the document and
the return for its signature or such
other action as they desire to take.
Wait for Wilson.
It is known definitely that Count
Won Bernstorf, former German am
bassador to the United States, will
not be one of the German delegates
at Versailles.

SEEK AMERICAN
SOLDIER PLAN
Foreign Countries Ask For
Help on Training of
Disabled Men

Washington, Aug. 20. This weeks
mail brought to the Federal Board
for Vocational Education a collection
of letters which showed the wide
spread interest taken in the various
phases of the work now in progress
under its direction. From Bucarest,
Rumania, came an inquiry as to the
program of the United States for the
re-education of disabled soldiers. A
member of the Legislative Assembly
Parliament of Australia wrote to ask
about the progress of vocational
training in this country, in order to
make better plans for the repatriation
of Australian soldiers.
Another letter was received from
Benares City, India, requesting in
formation and advice as to the most
helpful study along the lines of re-
education of disabled men.
director of the Perth Techni-
Cal School in Western Australia wrote
for suggestions as 10 continuation
schools. and the director of a large
worsted mill at Parsley, Yorks, Eng
land. in his effort to develop more
efficiency amcng his workers asked
the help OF the board in planning
for industrial training in the fac
tory.
The agricultural department of the
All-Russian Government at Omsk de-
sires complete set of the vocational
opportunity monographs for the pur-
pose of translating them into the
Russian language for the benefit of
the peasantry, This extensive ac-
quaintanceship gives much encour-
agement to the board.

Action Was Sudden
Mark a. Luescher. manager OF the
house, said the strike came hke
"thunderbolt from a clear sky as ),
-Se performance, Happy DAYS,
had been classified as vaudeville anu
the management had been assured II
would not be affected.
Although officials of the Equity eA
pressed surprise at the strike OF
stage hands, electricians and musl-
clans, which was called by the inter
national Alliance of Theatrical stage
EMPLOYEES and Motion Picture Oper-
ators, they lost no time in signing up
as members all of the cast that
could be induced to sign. Belle
Story, prima donna of Happy Days,
led the way to Equity headquarters
She is reported to have rallied the
500 chorus girls with the help OF
Marie Dressler, president of the
Chorus Girls Union. and marched
them to Equity headquarters, where
enrolment blanks could not be pro-
duced fast enough for the signers.
Benefit Performance
Following their enrolment in the
Equity ranks, the entire troop
marched to the Lexington theater,
where benefit performances for the
Equity are being held. The aston
iShed audience, fast becoming used
to new developments in New York's
most sensational strike, was amazed
as it saw the excited, cheering mob
of chorus girls and ballet dancers,
troop upon the stage. followed by
scores of electricians and stage
hands in working clothes. After
brief demonstration and short
speech by one of their members, the
benefit performance was allowed to
proceed.
The Hippodrome management said

ally" and were receiving wages rang
ing from $50 to S146 d week, which
were higher than the union scale

$500 bonus, which averaged about
SS each.

EYES
FOR LIVING COST
Grain Authorities Say People
Buy Wheat Flour Because
It Looks Better

Chicago, Aug. 30. - To a consid-
cradle extent. feeding the eyes in
stead of the stomach is responsible
for the high cost of living, according
to authorities here in the milling and
grain trade. They cite the fact that
rye -four is $2.55 a barrel cheaper
than white -four although. except for
looks. the rye flour is equally good or
better as food.
Unusual cheapness of rye -four at
this time is ascribed to two causes
the stoppage of whisky distilling and
the substitution of white bread for
rye bread by thousands of working
men, who, who, until the era of high
wages, used rye bread as a rule.
1t is said also by the milling ex-
perts that so far as known here the
United States government is pur-
chasing only white -four for ship
ment to Europe notwithstanding that
the bulk of the population across the
Atlantic is far more accustomed to
rye bread than white.
