ADVOCATE CREATION
 IF AERIAL BUREAU

WASHINGTON, Dec F. Five American aces. credited with having brought down more than 50 German airplanes, advocated today before a house committee the creation of an aeronautical department of the govern ment to coordinate all aerial activities. The group included Captain Eddie Rickenbacher, officially credited with 27 air victories in France, Major Charles J. Riddle, Philadelphia: Cap tain F. E. Kindley, Gravette, Ark; Ma ior J. A. Meissner, Birmingham, Ala. and Captain J. A. Healy, Washington All asserted that the air forces in France would have been much more ef- i ficient if administered by a department ! of aeronautics.
 1 Recommendations made during the | hearing included establishment of ( national flying academy, government
 subsidies to manufacturers, and pre- l liminary training of army and navy flyers under the same system.
 Major Riddle declared vital aerial ac.
 tivities in France were often seriousl,
 delayed by lack of equipment. Tn
 order to stop work in this country or
 Spad planes, issued in December, 1917 was "regrettable,' he said and would not have been issued had aviation of
 ficers had anything todo with it.

Price For Dayton-Wrig Factory And Fields Ad- joining Too Much Say Members - Final Action On Camp Development Bill Delayed
rRenuhlican A. P.leased wire1

WASHINGTON Dec. 12--Final action on the bill making available more than S9600 900 for completing the development of more than 30 army camps and aviation fields, including purchase of land at several places, was delayed today in the house by demand for reading on the engrossed bill.
 Before a final vote tomorrow on the passage of the bill. effort will be made to restore a provision for the govern. ment purchase of the Dayton Wright Airplane plant and adjoining fields at Dayton. Ohio, for $2,740, ,0G0. On a tie vote today the purchase of the Dayton plant was tentatively eliminated from the bill
 Under house rules, d tie vote defeats a proposal, the presiding officer not being required to vote. Representative Madden, republican, Illinois, who was presiding when the Dayton item was voted on. announced it's defeat without voting himself, although his support of the proposal, if given would have saved it.
 Before voting on the Dayton plant the house approved purchases of the Curtiss Elmwood plant at Buffalo, N. Y., for $1S04.000. Other large ex- penditures approved were for the de- velopment of Camps Brag, North Caro- lima. and Knox. Kentucky.
 Efforts to add provisions authoriz ing expenditures at various camps were defeated. excepting a proposal of Representative Longworth. republican Ohio, for spending $180 900 for land at the nitrate plant, near Cincinnati The only opposition to the committee pro- gram developed on the proposal to purchase the Dayton property.
 Representative Laguardia, republi- can, New York, charged that such a purchase would be direct steal from the treasury department"
 The assessed value of the land ai Dayton Laguardia said, lis only $S5 yet 1t is proposed to purchase it now al approximately SS50 an acre That is an example of stealing from state taxes, or from the United States. While 1 this country was at war officials ot 1 this company were scheming on sucf l a steal as is now proposed, and the l committee falls for it."
 | Representative Anthony. Kansas 1 ranking republican member of com. mittee, urged purchase of the prop. [ erty, saying it was a sound bushes. 1 proposition

 COMPANION IF YEARS
Republican A. p. Leased Wirel

NEW YORK, Dec. I2.-Rather than be separated from Alexander Berk- man, her companion of years, Emma Goldman announced tonight through her attorney that she had abandoned her fight in the supreme court to pre- vent her deportation to soviet Russia with Berkman and some so other radicals.
 Harry Weinberger, her attorney, in letter to Assistant Attorney General Stewart at Washington. asked that Miss GoIdman's application for writ of error or appeal and release on bail quest was made "in view of the state ment made by your department and the commissioner general of immigra . ton that Emma Goldman and Alex ander Berkman and other Russians will be deported within ten days to soviet Russia"
 The letter said Mss Goldman pre- ferred jail or deportation ito con- tinued custody on Ellis Island. The refusal of the supreme court to delay Berkman's deportation. the at torney said, also had led Miss Gold man to abandon her fight He quoted 1 her as saying that "if Berkman must go. 1 and the rest will go with him. Later a statement was issued by Miss | Goldman in which she said:
 T desire to go as soon as possible to soviet Russia and expect the gov ernment to keep it's promise to de | port Berkman and myself as well d: other Russians within ten days. Citi- zenship by naturalization today is ne protection to any former alien ! She said that the sudden calling fol her deportation showed "the hysteris Of the government officials" and tha she did not expect that she would bt l given time to arrange her 'mahN business and personal affairs" l Characterizing the governments ac- | ton as like that of the czar of Rus

FEW FARMERS WILL ATTEND CONFERENCE
 OF LABOR LEADERS

WASHINGTON, Dec. 12.-Labor's reconstruction conference" called by the executive council of the American Federation of Labor to consider the fundamental principles affecting Amer ican workers, will be convened in Washington tomorrow with probably few farmers representative in at tendance although more than a score of farm organizations were invited to send delegates.
 Federation of Labor officials tonight said that assurances had been received from only one farmers, association that delegates would be present but that others might be represented as under the invitation it was unneces- sary that advance information of ac- ceptance be furnished,
 Some delegations arriving today, however expressed disappointment that the farmers had not been more general declaring that the voice of the agricultural classes was needed
 The opening session will be held at the headquarters of the American Fed eration of Labor at 10 o'clock The sessions, it was indicated tonight, vii be executive and action of the confer ence probably will be withheld unti after adjournment.
 Precautions have been taken by the 1 conservative element, it also was in dicated, to prevent attempts by the radical groups to gain control. In this connection it was forecast that at i tempts would be made to win the SUD- port for the new labor party. Samue 1 Gompers, president of the federation of labor, however, was Nsteadfastly op- l posed to such actions.
 | Views of the four great railroad brotherhoods, whose presidents joined ! in the official call for the conference 1 present an innovation in labor meet i ings. Their general attitude of course 1 is known but what stand they vii | take when deliberating questions af- | fecting other industrial workers was
 subject much discussed. Some of the
 labor legislation pending in congres.
 will be opposed by railroad workers a.
 well as other union heads, but whether
 they will stand together in framing {

WITNESS TESTIFIES
 COERCION PRACTICED BY DETER IN CAMP
At Point Of Pistol, Was Forced To Sign Robbery Confession, Says Private Yates On Stand

NEW YORK. Dec. 12-Private Fred M Yates, testifying today at the court martial of Karl w. Detzer, charged with brutality to army prisoners while in command of a military police com pany in Le Mars. France, declared he was forced to sign a confession that he had stolen army property. which was untrue, at the point of a pistol held by the captain. Yates is serving two year sentence at Fort Jay for drawing a revolver on Captain Detzer.
 Arthur R. Graham a bank clerk of Sioux City. Iowa, who worked in the office of DetZers company, declared he once saw the captain strike Yates, saying:
 "Oh, how l love you as he did so.
 He declared he saw signs of other prisoners having been beaten, but he didn't know by whom. He once saw Sergeant Frank Hoyt Detzer's assist ant, strike a prisoner in the stomach with his fist in the captain S presence, he said
 Graham also testified he had seen other prisoners bearing marks of vio- lence. The defense drew from him that he had never seen a man forced to sign confession al the point of a pistoL' although he had seen many witnesses examined. He also testified that he had heard the accused order his men not to use their black jacks on prisoners except in self defense and that he had not seen any cruelty ! ''on the part of Captain Detzer per sonally."
 Fayette M Elliott, farmer o1 | Grenada, Colorado. was the last wit ness. After testifying that he himself i had served seven months after havins l been court magtialed for larceny, ht
 stated he had seen prisoners witt | bruised faces.
 The court then adjourned until Mon. 1 day.
