 BE FOUGHT IN AIR

 Helpless
By Associated Press

New York, March 27.-The first battle of the next year will be fought in the air, Brif Gen. William Mitchell. chief of the division of training and operations. army air service, declared in a statement here today, in which he visualized devisive aerial conflict. The battle. he added. would also be the last one of the war because the losing nation would be help less and unable to continue hostiiities after it's air fleet has been conquered.
 The air service chief predicted that avi- ation will completely drive huge battle cruisers, battleships and other surface ships off the water in the next conflict. "A great air force can render surface craft incapable of operating and stoS de- barkations from ships and attacks on shore establishments" ne said.
 Brigader General Mitchell inf his vis- ualization of the great air struggle of the future described vivid1y the part he be- lieves giant gun-bearing battle plants honnbers, rigid dirigible balloons and arm ored aircraft of various designs will play in the next war
 With the beginning of the war he pie lures huge fleet of dirigible balloons soaring high above the ocean, and, from nests on the tops of these, tiny airplanes are launched, locate the enemy fleet and return with the inforn5h tion. The chief air officer. working in contact with the army and navy, sends his air force against the enemy.
 The American fighting planes drive from the sky the enemy pursuit and combat planes launched from the decks of enemy battleships.
 Then comes the main attack by our air forces against the hostile fleet, says Gen. eral Mitchell The battleplanes are in squadrons of twenty five and four of these
 ..5-I-- J5r1rr nvfa the enemy fleet they maintain heavy fire destroying personnel and anti-air- craft equipment.
 With the gun-bearing planes or immed- lately behind them are the bombers, huge air freighters carrying proiectiles weigh ing up to one ton and depth bombs for effect against submarines. Water tor pedoes controlled by wireless from the planes crash into the sides of the hostile vessels. sinking the smaller ones and maging the larger.
 Darkness comes, and when visibility from the ships has become poor, huge rigid dirigible balloons carrying bombs of enormous weight, join the attack, thelr projectiIes crashing through the heagrest arnor of the enemy ships
 t'As the navy comes up to complete the work done by the aerial forces, the pat tle is over. The enemy. driven from the air and with most of it's ships either sunk or out of action, surrenders. The battle las been the first, and is also the last Of the war The enemy cannot land hls forces.

DRY PARTY WILL
 WATCH OLD ONES
Nomination of Prohibition Ticket De- bends Entirely on Attitude of
 Major Parties
By Associated Press

Chicago. March 27.-Whether the prohibition party will nominate can didate for the presidency and take ar campaign depends upon the attitude of the major parties toward the strict en- forcement of prohibition, says Virgil C. Hinshaw of this city. chairman of the party.
 There has been considerable specula- ton among political observers as to " neither the prohibition party would cr would not continue it's political ac- tivity now that prohibition has be- come constitutional enactment questions have been asked whether the prohibition party leaders would feel that the party's object had been attaped and the time at hand when prohibitionists might return to or be- come affiliated with one or the other of the major parties.
 Chairman Hinshaw believes the bat tie is not over; that the fight for en- forcement of prohibition is still to be won.
 "our' organization" he declares, will continue as long as the alcoholic serpent continues to wiggle it's tail.' Concerning the party's attitude in the presidential campaign. MT. Hinshaw said it's policies to be enunciated in it's national convention at Lincoln, Neb-, July g. would depend entirely upon the action taken at the conventions of the major parties.
 If the major parties fail to come out unequivocally for strict enforce ment of existing drv laws we will cer- tainly run prohibition candidate for President." said MT Hinshaw.
 sOf course. it is up-to the conven- ton whether we will or will not run enc anyway. But if the major par ties fail to enforce not only the Eighteenth amendment but existing prohibition laws as well. believe X there will be break ups that will bring many of their voters and their big men to our side.'
 As to the party's probable action concernig lesser candidates it is said tbat 1t twill seek the election of rep resentatives in Congress. governors members of legislatures and others who are charged with the enforcement of the dry law"
 Ernest H cherringtop of Wester- vile. Ohio declared that the Anti-Sa- loon League. of which he is secretary wiIl work to defeat candidates who are avowedly opposed to prohibition enforcement.

In David Work Griffith's newest
picture, THE Love Flower" which is
to appear at the Lyric theater Satur-
day and Sunday evenings Manager
Stoltz is giving the public an oppor-
tunity to see one of the most beautiful
motion pictures that has been present
ed on the screens. The story and the
scenes are set in the South Sea ISL
ands and has all the lure of the trop-
les pictured in a manner to please the
most exacting audience. Griffith took
all of his company to New Providence
the largest of the coral islands in the
Bahama group. and in that charming
setting the scenes in this picture were
made The story has great dramatic
force with a strong cast OF star actors
and the advance sheet announces THE
Love Flower" to be one of Griffith's
masterpieces, and that is recOmmen-
dation beyond all praise. No movie
goer should miss this rare treat as
they seldom have an opportunity in a
small town to see such a great pro-
duction. For next Wednesday and
Thursday evenings there will be pre-
scented "a White Mans Chance with
J. Warren Kerrigan in the leading role
with a very strong support. The prin-
cipal scenes of the story are laid in
Mexico and it is thriller from start
to finish Besides the chief feature
there will be Herold Lloyd comedy
