BRITAIN HAS REAL
AIR MAIL SERVICE

LONDON, Nov. 16.-England has a
regular aerial mail service as result
Of the railroad strike. Had there
been no strike such service would
not likely have been inaugurated for
six months or year hence.
Regular daily round trip air mail
service was established as an emer-
gency measure from Hounslow. Eng

edge of London, to Newcastle, Glas-

important mails going and coming
from France.

charges from two shillings an ounce
to sixpence will air mails become
popular with the public" said Major
Samuel Greer, civilian aviator direc-
tor at Hounslow air terminus. with
a sixpence charge per ounce, which is
in addition to regular postage, the
government can make thousands of
pounds on such a service. ..

The daily number of civilians carried
to France by air averages twenty
five. while the inward arrivals are
about that number, too. The Handley
Page service to Brussels averages ten
passengers and the Airco three to five.
THE strike brought inland air
mails to England months before it
had been planned to start such a
service. For every machine in the

CAMEL CARAVANS
TRANSPORT LUMBER

ALEPPO, Syria Nov. 16.-Bringing
lumber across the Arabian desert by
camel caravan is one of the achieve
ments for which Americans will be
longest remembered in Aleppo. The
lumber was used in the reconstruction
of the Armenian refugees homes.
When the American Red Cross ar
rived here it found many refugees Iiv-
ing in the open. their houses having
fallen apart through the removal OF
timbers by Turk soIdiery for firewood
The nearest timber source was the
Taurus mountains, along the Eu-
pirates l.ver. An expedition under
Capt. Edward Bickel. of Seattle.

arranged for the cutting of timber and
its transportation down the river on
RATS TO FL Doir, in the desert.
Conveys of camels were then en-
gagged and the lumber carried for
miles across the desert to Aintab.
AleppO and Marash. Troubles arose
with the BedOuin tribes of the desert,
attacks being mdGe upon the conveys
and the lumber occasionally DESTROYED.
Captain Bickel then arranged for a
guard of thirty armed men to accom-
rany each Ca-1van. Thereafter the
SUPPLIES arrived regularly.
One kU I1rad native carpenters were
rounded up b. Captain BickeI and set

buildings. As a result of this Ameri-

Armenian families have been able to

SMALL j. s. CITIES
GOAL OF FRENCH
Offer Unequaled Fields for
Manufacturers and
Merchants.

PARIS, Nov. ia great field for
French manufacturers and merchants
lies in the numerous American cities
of less than 500, 900 inhabitants, rare
ly touched by foreign traders, except
ing through the medium of Ameri-
can representatives in larger cities,
declares Louis Thomas, noted French
writer on economics.
Thomas advises FRENCH business
men to begin at once a careful study
of American geography, American
business methods and needs and
urges them to abandon the old idea
that their representatives, having
visited New York, Boston. Chicago,
and Washington, have no more fields
to conquer.
These great cities, important as
they are, represent only a small part
of the population OF the United
States" he adds Besides these
there are cities OF more than $685.

$4,000 inhabitants. like Cleveland. of
$4,000 and $4,000 inhabitants. like
Detroit and Los Angeles, which are
