WOodhouse Accused
OF Using Aero Club
AS Business Asset
Governors Reply to His
Application for Injunc-
ton to Prevent Merger
With Sister Organization

In answer to the application of
Henry Woodhouse for an injunction to
prevent the amalgamation of the Aero
Club of America and the Flying Club
the Aero Clubs board of governors
charge that Woodhouse used his con-
nection with the club to further his
commercial interests.
The governors deny Woodhouse's
charge that they have had any deal
ings with aircraft manufacturers re-
garding the amalgamation and add that
one of the principal reasons for the
proposed merger is that the Aero
Clubs lease expires on October /,
leaving them without home.
Referring to Woodhouse, the COVER
nors say:
"The plaintiff has been very active
since his admission TO membership in
1911 in the Aero Club of America and
among its membership in promoting
his own commercial interests, and has
utilized his connection with that club
In exploiting his publications, 'espe-
cially Flying Age Aerial Age and
Air Power and two of his text books,
and owing to the plaintiffs business
and other activities in which he has
utilized his position as member of
the Aero Club of America and of its
board of governors for the promotion
OF his own commercial interests, crit1-
cism and dissatisfactio have been ex
pressed by members With the CONNER
clalization by the plaintiff to his own
advantage, and especially to the ad-
vantage Of the publication of which he
is the proprietor and editor, styled
Flying of his relations with the Aero
Club, whose true interests he now
seeks to subordinate.
The plaintiff fears that the advan-
tages of personal exploitation of him
self and his publication which he has
heretofore enjoyed through the COM
liberalization of his relations with the
said club may be prejudiced or i'm
paired by the termination of the terms
of the present board Of governors and
the changes which are contemplated in
the amendments that have been ap-
proved at a meeting of the governors
duly held on July 81, 1916. and are
proposed to the members for their ac
ton on August Is, 1920.
These defendants charged that the
present appeal is not actuated bv anv
interest which the plaintiff feels or has
in the Aero Club of America. and he
has not in his complaint set forth the
facts which move him to his present
suit; he has concealed his actual mo-
tive of attempting to perpetuate the
commerci alzation of his relations to
the Aero Club to his own profit and
advantage, and the profit and advan
tage Of his publication, Flying Age, ,
and against the best interests Of the
said club, and he does not appear in
this court under his rightful name,
which is Morris T. Casalegno, but
under an assumed name, which he uses

A German soldier, who has been serv-

Police, discussing the possibility of
such an attack, say it is hardly probable

hope of being able to bring it out of
the city before the Bolsheviki arrived.
Lieutenant Arthur Fox, Of Philadel-
phia, was in command of the train, and
it was found it could not be moved
out Of Minsk because of the conges-
ton on the railroad caused by the re-
tirement of the Poles. Cook was taken
for Polish soldier by the Bolsheviki.
who stripped him Of everything except
his underwear, and then paraded him
through the streets Of Minsk When
it became known he was an American,
soldiers Of the Soviet army came for
miles to see him, as he was regarded
by them as a freak.
A Bolshevik officer at first ignored
Cooks plea that he was a non-com-
Blatant relief worker, but he was later
identified as an American by the Minsk
representative of the American Joint
Distribution Committee. Two weeks
after his capture Cook was taken be-
fore the commissar who related the
good points of the Soviet form of gov
eminent before releasing him. Cook
remained in Minsk for week before
he could obtain papers which would
give him authority to travel. During
that time the Bolsheviki began closing
stores in Minsk, taking them over for
the government. While in that city
Cook lived on black bread and tea.
Cook has served twenty years in the
United States Army, enlisting from
KNOXVILLE, Mo. His father now resides
at Fay, Okla.
While in Minsk Cook met Louis Jen-
nings, an American lumber dealer, who
went to Minsk six years ago. Jen-
nings, who is still an American citizen,
did not leave when the Bolsheviki
threatened the city, because Mrs. Jen-
nings was visiting in a nearby town
and had not returned home.
II am mighty glad to get back to
work after three weeks of nothing but
thrills" said Cook to-day when he took

Gen. AllenSees Only Hope
For Poland in Allied Aid

COBLENZ, Aug. (By The Asso-
ciated ress).-Poland's military sit
uation is now critical, in the view of
Major General Henry r. Allen, com
mander in chief of the American army
OF occupation, who is kept closely in
formed through representative in
warsaw and the American attache
there of Polish developments.
Resources and achievements with
in Poland for much further resistance
do not appear to General Allen to be
available. He believes that a contin
uation of the Polish struggle rests
with the Allies.
The American general has received
no indication that the United States is
taking active steps to cooperate with
the Allies. He has received no special
instructions from Washington cover
ing his attitude and policy.
General Allen has expressed convic-
ton, from his knowledge rf the coun-
try, that Germany is determined to
stand on her neutrality and oppose the
Allies transit through German terri
tory. He also feels certain that Ger
many will not allow the Bolsheviki be-
yond her eastern border.
Estimates made here Of the combat
ant forces on the Russo Polish front in
dictate they are relatively small, the
Bolsheviki being said to number 16O.-
900 and the Poles 100000.
The American military relief unit at
Warsaw, with which General Aliens
command is in direct communication,
as we'll DIS the American Embassy, thus
far have not indicated immediate cause
for withdrawal from the Polish capital.
Arrangements have been made to
take out the unit by way of Danzig at
any time. If the Danzig corridor is cut
the Americans will go toward Cracow
and will be able to come through Ger
many under the latter's neutral status.

WARSAW, Aug. (By The Asso-
ciated Press) Sergeant William Cook,
Of Fay, Okla, a member of the Amer
lean typhus expedition, who was cap
tured three weeks ago by the Russian
Bolsheviki when they entered Minsk,
has arrived here, having been released
by Soviet authorities After his re-
lease he went to wilma and thence to
Riga, where he joined a Red Cross
courier coming to Warsaw.
Soldiers in the Bolshevik army"
he said to-day, "are eager to reach
Warsaw, as many believe the war will
end if the Polish capital is taken.
The Soviet army has plenty of
soldiers, rifles, machine guns and am
muniton, Cook says, but he did not
see any artillery excepting six cannon
captured from the Poles. The Bolshe-
guns. He saw many American auto
mobiles and motor cycles being used
by the Soviet soldiers, and remarked
that the Bolsheviki are fairly we'll fed,
having lived off the country they have
taken from the Poles. Little discipline
prevails in the Bolshevik army, he de
clares, and, although there is no sa-
luting, officers are respected by the
men.
While on the march the Bolsheviki
reminded Cook of a crowd of Ameri-
can farmer boys going to picnic, as
they made no effort to preserve forma-
tions, and struggled along the roads
in little groups. Some would be on
one side of the highway and some on
the other, while others would be seen
scattered through the fields. Whenever
they desired groups would sit down to
rest One day Cook counted eleven
airplanes flying toward the front and
was told by Soviet soldiers that the
machines were being assembled for the
drive against Warsaw.
Cook, who fought in the American
ranks at Cantigny during the early
summer campaign of 1918 and par
tcipated in the Marne-Aisne offensive
and also in the battle of the Argonne
was captured when he remained with
