ARABS FEAR AlRPLANES
Flee Quickly When French Send
Machines Over Their Heads.

The policing Of the Sahara desert
by airplanes has been suggested by
the French commission. which has
urged Its government to increase the
allotment of planes for military pur-
poses, particularly as a means Of con
vlncing the native tribes Of French
prestige.
The Arab tribesmen take TO their
heels whenever fiers appear, according
TO the commission, and as n supple
ment TO the desert police, aviators are
able to do great pioneer work. The
government before using aircraft ex-
tensively must develop a system OF
meteorological information. as well as
establish a chain of relief and fuel
stations along. the higher ridges.

Military Rule in Moscow.

An atmosphere Of military rule per
meates Moscow more than any of the
other cities. The population Is under
constant nervou strain and few are
able TO avoid arrest by the supreme

sons disappear into prisons and no
charges are preferred against them.
Set free, they encounter the greatest
difficulties In living. The popular say

population is divided into three classes /:
Those who have been imprisoned, those
In prison and those who Will be.
At present Moscow Is In a gala new
