REGULAR SHIPS LOGS

Trepassey, N. F., May 13.-Whi1e
Commander John II. Towers. In COM
mand of the United States navy's trans
Atlantic flight, declined to state whether
the seaplanes would hop off tomorrow
for the Azores, reports today from the
guard ships stretched along the ocean
course Indicated that favorable weather
conditions would prevail.
Newspaper correspondents have been
warned that when the decision to start is
reached. the machines may get under way
with little notice. but it was learned
that one indication of an impending start
would be the nooring of the NC-1 TO
the stern of the supply ship Prairie and
the NC3 to that of the mine layer Aroo-
stock in order that steam from the YES
sells may be run thru the oil supply tanks
of the planes to heat their lubricants. 1t
will be unknown here until the planes
start where they actually will take the
air. If the water is rough on the outer
bay. they will take off in the harbor. A
fairly stiff wind is needed, however. to
lift the heavily laden craft.
The planes will carry regulation ships
logs and the flight is expected to con-
tribute important data to aeronautics,
as conditions which are encountered on
the various legs of the voyage will be
entered at regular intervals.
The guard ships flotilla commander
here has received orders from Washing
ton to keep the destroyers stationed
along the coast legs of the flight in posi-
tion for the NC4, which is awaiting
favorable weather in Chatham, Mass.
The destroyer Edwards is due tomor-
row with n dozen seaplane propellers.
Lieutenant Commander Bellineer
commanding the NC-1, expects young
fox tomorrow from st. Johns, which he
plans to take with him on the trans-At-
lantic flight as mascot.

in operating revenues shows that total
traffic has fallen off approximately

ago. Freight traffic has decreased more
than IS per cent, but due to demobii-

The airplane is the latest vehicle
used to furnish the thrill loving public
with hair-raising stunts. Aviators have
been performing almost unbelievable
feats in and with them. A few months
ago an aviator dropped from the low
er plane of one machine to the top of an
other airplane while both were flying
mile above ground A third airplane,
in front. photographed the thriller. Re-
Gently an aviator was snapped while
climbing all over his machine high above
the clouds during a wind storm. While
another f7ier guided the plane this dare
devil climbed out to the tips Of the wings
and crawled between the wires and
struts to test the important parts. The

FEEDING RUSSIA NO SOLUTION

Paris, May 13-(French Wireless
Service. THE feeding of the Russian
population is no solution of the Russian
question. it is declared in a memofan-
DUN sent to the peace conference by
Prince Lvoff. Segius Sazonioff and Pres
ident Tschaikowsky. of the North Rus
sian government. concerning the pro-
posal to feed soviet Russia thru neutral
countries, on condition that the holshe-
Wiki cease hostilities. The memorandum
says:
'The allies wish to assist the Russian
people and to reduce starvation brot by
to awake feelings of gratitude. 1t is
deed of humanity and also g manifesto
ton of solidarity of principles.
Nevertheless. the signers of this dec
laration consider the realization of this
thot will have contrary result, unless
measures are taken to prevent the boil
sheviki from interfering with the re-
victualing of Russia. To bring failure
to this would prolong operations of the
boishevik regime.
'sThe task which the Russian national
movement must fulfill is to liberate Rus
sia from the yoke of those who have
reduced her to her present state of i'm
potence and to the necessity of relying
upon foreign countries for her food.
Feeding of the famished population is
no solution ofethe Russian question.
THE struggle to iberate Russia from
her oppressors and TO give Russia
government of her own choosing cannot
be stopped for any reason The signers
of this declaration wish to state that
Russia will pay for food, but they hope
that the allies viii refuse to give the
bolsheyik usurpers the right to dispose
of Russia's patrimony."

DOMINATING POINTS FOR ITALY

Paris, May 13-(By The Associated
Press. In the peace treaty with Aus
tria, now well toward completion, re-
sponsibility clause has been inserted,
identical with that n the German treaty,
with the exception that the first clause,
providing for the trial of former En-
peror William. is omitted. The remain
ing clause makes provision for the trial
of military offenders by an international
court martial,
The frontier delimitation of the new
Austria presents the one serious issue
in the drawing Of the treaty, somewhat
similar to that of the Saar valley in the
German treaty. This is rs regards the
lower Tyrol, section of which is de-
tached from Austria and placed within
the boundaries Of Italy It includes the
cities of Bozen and Meran, and an esti-
mated German population of about 250,-
600.
The reason for attaching this. Ger
speaking population to italy is the
establishment of strategic frontier,
giving Italy adequate protection from
invasion from the north The old from
tier ran south of the Alps. with Italy in
the down grade and Austria on the com
manding heights. The new frontier re-
verses this. giving Italy the heights and
all the defensive passages. The form
or status gave Austria seven lines of ap-
proach, while Italy possessed only one
main line for mobilizing its defenses:
The new status places all these lines of
approach under Italy :.
As has been stated, the frontier line,
as drawn in the terms to be presented
to the Austrians, is the one laid down
by the treaty Of London, altho the
treaty makes no mention of this fact.
Italy sought this line as permanent
strategic defense secured its insertion
in the armistice terms and now secures
its incorporation in the treaty.
