THREE FAMOUS UNITS
 PREPARING FOR HOME

The homeward flow Of American fighting units which had the oppor- .tunity to distinguish themselves in action soon will begin.
 | The war department announced last Tuesday that three famous national guard divisions-the Twenty-seventh (New York;; Thirtieth (Wildcat) ', and the Thirty-seventh (Buckeye) had been ordered to prepare for embarka- tion. There was no information as to when the divisions would start | from French ports, but heretofore it has required several weeks for units to embark, after being assigned to early convoy.
 Divisions having a distinguished fighting record, and others having a distinctive local identity in the Unit ed States will be kept together after their return from France, until they can be paraded at home and receive the welcome that the people are anxi- ous to bestow upon them. No definite plan as to the three divisions now designated for early return has been made here, but it is assumed at the war department that the various units of each division will be sent home close together so that it will be no hardship upon the men who arrive first to keep them organized until the entire division can be paraded.

RED CROSS STARTS AID FOR PRISONERS
 HELD IN GERMANY

The American Red Cross will begin immediately the work of providing re- lief for Russian prisoners in Germany, who are said to number 100000. Large sums of money have been con- tributed for this purpose by Russian societies and individuals in France and Scandinavian countries.
 Captaon w. B. Webster of the American Red Cross is in London supervising the loading of the steam CT Nero with shoes, blankets and clothing. The vessel will start for Copenhagen in few days. Negotia- tions have been completed with Her bert c. Hoover, director general of relief, who will supply food up to the limit of the money subscribed for the relief of Russian prisoners, through Rotterdam and Copenhagen.
 This relief work, possibly, is the result of clause in the new armis- tice conditions and will be under the general supervision of Brigadier General Harris of the American army, who is in Berlin in connection with the repatriation of American prison CTS.
 The Russian military prisoners in Germany total 100000 while the ci- williams number 3OO,OOO. Most of them are in large camps, there being 2O0,- 900 at Danzig alone. There are 14,000 officers. Sanitary conditions among the Russians are said to be very bad because of the lack of soap, disinfectants and medicines.
 The Red Cross is sending hospital and disinfecting units and kitchens and canteens with the first relief ship.
 It is reported 100000 Russian pris- oners are in hospitals, and that 50,000 more are invalids, chiefly with con- sumption, because of the lack of prop CT food. The Red Cross will supply fats and other foods to supplement the relief furnished the prisoners by Germany.
 Most of the prisoners have not yet received any clothing except paper un- derwear and wooden shoes, and the Red Cross will try to supply at once warm clothing and nourishing foods. Distribution of the food and clothing will be supervised carefully to in- sure that it reaches the prisoners.

Don't Forget
 Soldier Now

(From the Detroit ( Mich.) News)
 At the exact moment when the soldier needs the most attention from the civilian, the civilian has to an extent at least withdrawn attention from him. It is easy to understand that with the war over the man or woman in civil life, figuring the sol died about to be discharged, relaxes efforts in his behalf. But the point that is overlooked is that from now to his discharge the soldier faces the most trying period of his military life.
 As long as the war continued, men in the army found an inspiration in their work, were buoyed by the prob
 ..Iity that soon they would be in the thick of it. Civilian attention and courtesies were appreciated, needed, and popular as diversions, but France, the goal, was the main thing. Now the war is over. Work that was once labor gladly borne as an irksome preparation for battle has become plain drudgery. There is no chance to go abroad. The soldier is simply waiting, waiting for his discharge.
 Under these circumstances the re- taxation of civilian effort which the Detroit War Camp Community Ser vice finds is doubly unfortunate. The importance of taking care of the

A SONG OF PEACE
(written by Evelyn Buechner).

Almighty One. in wisdom, love and We lift our souls to Thee in this great
 hour. Oh, give us vision, give us grace to be More grateful, Father, and more worthy
 Thee After these years, so torn with grief
 and pain, A glad new song we hear, hearts smile

 done. No more will sunny meadows fresh and
 green Be battle-scarred and blood-stained; ;
 and the dream Of peace, for which the world has
 prayed, Is true at last, sweet peace, so long de-

 and still Beneath an alien sky, on widswept hill, Their bodies sleep, their souls abide
 with Thee, In glorious freedom, through all time
 to be. And now. we pray for strength to

 done, Till peace eternal reigns on land and And we have learned to be more worthy

FRENCH CONSTRUCTING HEAVIER PLANES
 LIGHT PLANES UNFIT FOR MAIL SERVICE

The small and fast airplane so highly developed during the war is now being purposely neglected by the French constructors, who instead are turning their chief attention to inn mediate progress in large machines of not less than 800 horsepower and 9O-foot spread. No better evidence of the improbability of civilian employ ment on small airplanes is available than the statement of the Nieuport Company, which for three years had been constantly increasing it's output of small speedsters for the French, British and American armies.
 In an interview with Messrs. De- lage and Bazin, heads of the concern, l was informed they saw no future commercially for the small machine such as they had been building for war purposes and they were not ex- pecting to market any of these or any single-seaters, except, perhaps, one here and there. They said they saw no possibility of sportsmen or former military pilots wishing to own such speed craft. The fact that the original first cost is high, the life of the motor short and the necessity of employing two or more mechanics to care for the motor and airplane were unfavorable conditions which did not exist as such in the army service.
 Will Build Big Machines
 Delage and Bazin explained that ac- cordingly they were preparing a three scatter machine which would be ca pable of a speed of 125 miles an hour for pilot sportsmen, express or mail riders or even for use as rac-
Mohave County miner and our mineral wealth., 1919-01-25

ing type or for taviacros. The great est effort of their company would, however, be directed to the construc- tion of mammoth airplanes for which the necessary demand had already appeared definitely. They saw grati- flying possibilities for the employ ment of huge flying boats as a quick, agreeable and safe means of passen- ger transport along numerous French waterways usually unnavigable, such as the wide Loire and Rhome rivers. For this reason they have added the former Teller Boat Company works to those of the Newport.
 Despite increased activity, aerial mails are not proving a great success in France. It is not possible under present conditions to avoid delays which mitigate the importance of carrying mail by airplane.
 In winter weather airplanes are hampered by fogs and clouds, which prevent the pilots from seeing the ground. There is then only one way to steer a direct course and that is by the use of the directional wireless for which an installation is neces- sary. This is working smoothly be- tween Paris and London but nowhere else.
 The constructors who are keenly about the future of com mercial flying insist that aerial mails operated without suitable mark ed courses, landing places, signals or wireless or it's equivalent may weaken public confidence in air planes for the purpose, but eventually installation on the route will rekindle the enthusiasm.

soldiers, sailors, and marines, work with which this service is charged, has increased, not diminished. Filling wartime leisure is less difficult task than combating the evils of peacetime garrison inertia.
 Small, personal attentions, lifts in automobiles, invitations to home, pro- viding of theater tickets, the hun dreds of things in the doing of which Detroit has distinguished itself, are increasingly gratifying to the soldier. Simply because the war is over and >hese men have missed and bitterly regret missing their chance for over seas service is an added incentive for Detroit to care for them.

BRYAN SEES RISK y
IN REJECTING PACT
Scores Covenant, but Urges II
Be Accepted.

LEXINGTON, KY. April 1--we must
take risks whether we accept the League
Of Nations covenant or reject It," de-
clared William Jennings Bryan IN an
address here tonight, speaking in behalf
Of a law to enforce national prohibition.
we take more risks by rejecting it
than by accepting, however. It's imper-
fections must not be allowed by us to
lead to its rejection by America"
Bryan added that among the cove
nnnt's faults are that II does not 70 far
enough, and that 1t Is indefinite where
definiteness Is necessary. He declared
against the right OF tho council to com
pei an economic boycott. because while
such boycotts are not war, they are
likely to develop into q war"
He asserted that nations should have
the right to decide for themselves
whether they would undertake the things
advised by the leagues general council
and that no doubt should be left as to
whether a nation is required to furnish
force to back up a council decision.
This nation cannot afford to allow
council In which 1t has so small a voice
to carry it into war against Its WILL" he
asserted. Bryan said a substitute for
war should be provided and public opin-
ion should have n part in settling terri
torial expansion.
Bryan also objected TO the small vot-
ing strength allowed America. He said
all nations asked to become a mandatory
should have the right to accept or de-
cline. He also foresaw worldwide pro-
hibition for the future. This, he believes,
will help keep the world out of war.

LONDON, April .19.--In political circles
here much significance is attached to the
resolution adopted by the French Senate
demanding the insertion in the peace
treaty of guarantees suggested by the
Allied High Command. The resolution
may, perhaps. be read in connection
with the interview with Marshal Foch
had by correspondent Of the Daily
Mail, in which the Allied Generals
sino insisted on the necessity Of regard
ing the Rhine as the real barrier against
another German attack. because the
Rhine could be held with a small force.
whereas the political frontier west Of
the Rhine, as proposed under the peace
treaty. would. as the Marshal explained
have to be held with large forces along
it's whole length.
There are rumors that Marshal Foch
insists strongly on these guarantees.

BulRars Repatriated.

WASHINGTON, April 1.-THE repatria-
tion Of the Greeks held during the war
by the Bulgar armies, variously esti-
mated at from $4,000 to 100000, has
been virtually completed, national head
quarters OF the American Red Cross was
advised to-day.
Tens of thousands OF Greeks died, II
was declared, as the result Of being de-
ported from their homes in Eastern
Macedonia and informed I'm Bulgaria,
The Bulgarian Government claims that
the Greeks did not number more than
$4,000. but the Greeks insist the num-
Der was as high as 100000. The differ
ence was explained by the Red Cross as
representing the deaths OF Greeks from
etarvation, exposure and i'll treatment.
The despatch with which the repatria-
ton was handled was due In large part
to the strong representations made to
the allied control. which brought pres
sure TO bear on the Bulgarian authorities,
while the cooperation of the British
French and Greek missions that went to
Sofia after the armistice was signed also
was enlisted.
The Bulgars refused the permit for
Red Cross workers to enter Bulgaria
despite authority from Gen. DEsperey,
the allied commander in chief, but this
was overcome, as were Bulgar efforts to
prevent the establishment of canteens
for the returning Greeks.
