DISPATCH RIDERS OF TODAY
of Movement Was Strikingly Demonstrated.

As we drove up the hill near Nancy on September 12 to the near est corps headquarters a two-seater airplane coming from the St. Mihiel front volplaned down toward us, William Slavens McNutt writes in Golfers. We could see the observer in the rear seat standing up and looking down over the fuselage. As the plane buzzed over us not more than 200 feet above, the observer swung his arm and small white ob- ject with two-foot linen tail spread out behind the speeding plane and came to earth like an arrow. An orderly picked it up and sprinted with it to headquarters.
 It was report from the front not ten minutes old. It would have taken a foot runner the entire day to collect the material in that re- port and return with it.; it would have taken dispatch rider on a mo- torcycle hours; it took the airman minutes, and as the orderly picked up the message the plane above was banking around and heading again for the battle line.
 Planes are more than the eyes of the army in a war of movement. They are the means of communica- tion as we'll. The army that owns the sky holds a short and certain mortgage on the earth below.

Announcement by Charles H. Flory, supervisor of the national forests in Alaska, of the policy he purposes to pursue with reference to the Territory and the aid he hopes to be able to render in its development is gratifying. It IS thoroughly constructive and will certainly work to the benefit of Alaska and the nation.
 MT. Flory comes to the north with an open mind, anxious to learn the needs of the country and to help in presenting to the proper author ities such recommendations as will be of assistance in bringing about desired regulations and laws. Many changes are needed and there is no doubt that the new head of the Alaska division of the Forestry bureau will not require many months to learn them.
 In his announced intention of be- coming we'll acquainted with condi- tions before making any move he is pursuing a course that will com mend itself to all. To make proper recommendations he must familiar. ize himself with the people, the re- sources. the possibilities and the means of bringing about conditions such as will permit the opening of new industries.
 Without reference to the forestry department, it might be noted that many federal officials who have served in Alaska came to the coun- try believing that they were the government, that their opinions were final On all questions, and with no desire to cooperate with the people most interested. MT. Flory. coming in an entirely different frame of mind, Alaska is to be congratu- lated and nothing but good can come of his presence in the country. Chronicle.

AN EUllOltlAL
By JOHN H. GERRIE, Editor San Francisco Bulletin

The two stupidest nations!
 No! Not Russia and Germany Not even Nigeria and Timbuctoo!
 But - Great Britain and United States!
 Now, what do you think about that? You don't believe it? They are the most enlightened nations2
 They are and they are not!
 In some things, yes. In one great vital essential of these vital times, no!
 For Great Britain and the United States are embarking upon the most colosal world competition in all history with the wrong kind ot equipment.
 They are tackling world trade with the wrong tools.
 Two hundred and twelve nations and countries are doing business together under the simple practical and universally understood metric system.
 Two nations are attempting to do business with the PIP under the oldfashioned, cumbersome, obsolete german system.
 These two old fashioned, behind the-,imes, dozing nations are Great Britain and the United States.
 And the system they are using was discarded as worthless by Germany half century ago.
 The two greatest @ nations in the world are trying to do business with Germany's cast-otfs.
 This, no doubt, is precisely as Germany had planned. Having tied weight to the heels of her greatest trade adversaries, this cleverly cunning country removes her own weights and skins into world commerce on the wings of a system in, ented by an English man-Iames Watt in I7S3.
 Think of the irony of 1t: An Eng. llshman gives the world the logical, decimal system of measurement which Germany adopts to her tremendous acceleration in com merce and power and enrichment by billions of dollars. In return Germany fastens upon the land ot the Englishman 10 whom she owes so much the cumbersome tumble of quantity expression that is terrible handicap to Great Britain in her world enterprises.
 But the real tragedy is this
 The United States slavishly fol- lows Britannia in her weights and measures and retains them while all the rest of the world, except these two, adop, the decimal system which everybody understands
 It is under this tremendous handi. cap that the United States enters world trade. In all her dealings with Orient, Oreania, Latin America and the remainder of the world out side of British possessions this country must do business with two sets of measurements the metric, to satisfy her customers; the Ger man, to humor the obstinacy of her own manufacturers. But that ob- stlnacv is calculated to cost those manufacturers tens of millions of dollars annually in lost time and lost orders.

you brought us. These dead will
bring from America many thoughts
Of remembrance and pious visits, and
will bind still more strongly our
already close union"
IF" concluded the marshal. "the
clouds Of war should gather again
In the future, would not these dead
rise from their tombs and make their
voices heard once more by world
which already knows that the same
cause, the cause Of liberty, has
united us since the time Of Wash
ington and LaFayette?"
General Pershing replied by bid
ding farewell to France in the per-
son Of the marshal, "to her gallant
poilus, to her patriotic men and to
her noble women" Then the general
and Marshal Foch walked arm in
arm to the gang plank. exchaning
