The United States, General Mitchell
said: had produced practically no aerial

Although the army owns 100 foreign
built pursuit planes, these could not be
used for combatant work, he said, ad-
ding that they would be of value only
for training duty, as they were ont of

General Mitchell urged immediate uni

Judge Faris. in his decision devoted
much space to the question of fact as
TO whether the war is in fact over and
whether demobilization has, in fact. oc-
Cured. In this connection, he quoted
the presidents veto message on the
Nolstead bill. in which the president said
the objects of the wartime prohibition
measure had been satisfied in the
rehabilitation of the army and navy.
Judge Faris called attention in his
decision to the fact that in time of war
government necessarily must take on the
cloak of autocracy. but when the
menace ceases to be threatening. when
the war is over. the reign of autocracy
should cease and democracy ought TO
