Alaskan Flyers Expedition
 Is Declared to be Epochal

NEW YORK, Sept. Military and civilian aeronautical experts de- clare that the completion recently of the trip of the four American army aviators from New York to Nome, Alaska, was as epochal in it's military and commercial importance as Ble- riots first flight across the English Channel since it opens Alaska to aeronautics.
 Reports state that the Alaskans are determined to bring about reg ular communication through the air and now look to the Government to foster the new project
 As a result of the flight, 1t is said. an aerial route has been photo graphed and charted diagonally ac- ross the United States, Canada and Alaska, with tentative supply and air service sites The Air Board states that the following has been accomplished by the flight:
 An effective aerial route to the Northwest corner of the American continent has been established. h. accessible areas in Alaska which had never been mapped have been eharted and photographed.
 Usefulness af the airplane as means of transport, both for mail. messengers and freight has been demonstrated. Necessity of landing fields and air service supply stations throughout the United States and 'ts territories has been shown
 Durability of modern airplanes and motors has been proven and it has been learned that flying is safe even over territories where transport by railroad automobile and wagon is considered dangerous.
 The report of Capt St Clair Street in command of the expedition. states that the flyers considered the flight 'cross the Eastern States, as having few landing fields and not ideal in any instance The Middle West and Canada. he said. as far as Edmon- ion was ideal
 "The expedition sighted innumer- able glaciers said Capt Street. and rain, clouds and low fog were prevalent. Yukon and Alaska are rough and partly forested. and af- ford no natural landing places ex- cept on river bars. but the route from Wrangcll to Nomc is ideal for water planes"

Germany Menaced by Reds
 Worldwide Drive, Claim

MANNHEIM, Germany, Sept. 15.- "The present military operations are only a very minor part of world wide offensive which Soviet Russia is now setting in motion,' declared Prince Max of Baden, in an interview published by the Baden State Gag ette. Asked whether he saw a way out of the present dilemma for Ger many Prince Max, according to the report, said
 There is only one very slender hope; it consists in the unconditional maintenance of our neutrality both to the east and to the west, and m one last desperate effort to effect re- vision of the Versailles peace treaty.
 Resistance CrumbIing
 Prince Max believes that what he calls the German resistance to the moral invasion of Bolshevism is bound to crumble down if the check ing pressure from the West is kept up.
 'It would be doing scant justice to Lenines uncanny personality he continued, If one were to believe that he is capable of keeping more than a sham peace with so-called capitalistic states. Lcnine believes with religious fanaticism in tine vie torious march of his idea; the die tatorship of the proletarat or or the communistic portion of the pro Ietariat. He is, of course, enough of a psychologist to understand thai a military invasion of any country he wants to disrupt would be the very means of consolidating it. His plan would rather consist of pro voking and fostering civil war Tn the bordering states so that, when the time was ripe for invasion, he would find an open door and a union of comrades"
 "Moral Invasion" On
 Prince Max believes that the pros poets of such plan snpcceedlnS II Germany are not wholly unpromisine as the moral invasion" he declares has already set in and news iron East Prussia plainly lndlcAteS thd' the Red propaganda among farm laborers there is already taking ei feet.
 Europe today is aflamc," he con cluded "and the task of extinguish ing the conflagration cannot be post poned. The situation demands the restoration of President Wilson fourteen poina,' which constituted the basis for treaty. but which were wholly ignored at Versailles"
