brought to the United States for trial.
Because tho United States and Turkey

BERLIN, March 31-The latest de-
velopments indicate that the social
and political ferment in Germany is
still working vigorously. To odays
Die Freiheit" exploits q report of the
revolutionary miners convention at
Essen, which yesterday voted by
huge majority for a general strike to-
morrow, to enforce six-hour work
day and other millenial blessings.
AS counterfoil to the above,
national convention of the bourgeois
element of the population, held in
Berlin yesterday, adopted resolutions
demanding the organization Of bour
geois councils as an Offset to the
workmen's councils. The convention
also demanded constitutional recogni
ton of such councils if the work
mems councils are to be thus recog
nized The convention finally voted
in favor of general strike of the
bourgeoisle as means of combating
an eventual strike of the workmen.
Meanwhile the social unrest and
political uncertainties are eXerting
steady pressure upon the German
monetary solidity. The German mark
has been deprcciating almost without
interruption for more than week IN
neutral markets. losing 3.05 at Am
sterdam, $50 at Stockholm, AGO at
Copenhagen and 500 at Zurich since
March 20. The value Of the mark is
now only 4l34 per cent of normal at
Copenhagen, 1882 per cent at Stock
holm, 3S per cent at Amsterdam and
36.44 at Zurich.
This development attracts lively dis
cussion here. The reasons assigned
are that neutral bankers fear Hun
garian developments will have reac-
tion in Germany in the direction of
Bolshevism. This situation makes the
neutral bankers disinclined to grant
further mark credits 10 GERMANY.

motor stalled. He was then 500 feet
above the leader, who was about to set
fire TO his plane with incendary bull

There was only one thing to do"
said Captain Rickenbacker, that was
to drop like a shot through them all.
This did through seven of them. My

crashed his plane into that of a skill
full Hun aviator who was about to
shoot down one of the inexperienced

along the Meuse near Verdun.
"For a moment both planes seemed
to envclop each other Then, bit by

Rickenbacker. The most extraordinary
thing about it was that that flight ovel

II had often wondered which would

I asked Major Al Lufberry about i

Lufberry was set on fire by a Boche
