GIANT BOMBING PLANE
United States Army Is Building
a New Type of Machine.
$50 Miles Out, Officer Tells Sen
ate Committee.

Washington, D. C.-The army is
building a new type of giant bombing
plane capable of sinking any hostile
d~readnaught that ventures within $50
miles of American shores.
This assertion was made before the
Col. I. III. Bane, army aviation service.
Two of these planes are already
nearing completion. They will be the
biggest heavier-than-air machines in
existence, and capable of carrying a
bomb weighing 10000 pounds. They
will cost $375,0O0.
rs there any conceded limit to the
size of those planes?" Senator Len
root, Wisconsin, asked.
1--WE have not reached it yet"
rs it reasonably possible that they
may attain such size as to make de-
struction of any dreadnaught beyond
question:" Mr.. Lenroot asked.
why, l believe hat they have got
ten to that point already" Col. Bane
said. There is one way to decide
that. and that is to try it."
you think they can destroy any
dreadnaught?" Senator Mcclellan.
Tennessee, asked. :,
Absolutely" Col. Bane replied.
. The committee was so impressed
with this and other testimony that it
increased the appropriation of $19,-
600 O made nv the houSp for aircraft
to $23, 100000, $5.o00,000 to be spent
in experiments and $7,000,00 0 for new
aircraft.

A successful test OF a e life
saving device, the invention of Nj.
Pans, a veteran of the great war, was
made at the Eiffel tower in Paris re-
Gently. The apparatus makes possible
a complete. stop while climbing a rope
or using it in descent. The demonstra-
ton was performed by M. Pans for
the Paris fire brigade, which is con-
sidering the adoption of the appara-
tus, which consists of a sort of har-
ness and seat, and a steel pulley which
slides over the rope. 1t can be manip-
ulated by the person ascending or
descending or by persons OF the
ground. The photograph shows the
inventor, M. Pans, with his apparatus
after the experiment.

ware farmers can recoup their losses.
There has not been single money
crop for the farmers this year.
Everything is gone. Grain, vegetables
all are failures. Wheat capped the
climax last week, when thrashing re-
ports throughout the State showed a
ten to fifteen bushel loss per acre as a
result of the drought.
More foreclosures have been re-
corded at the tsheriff's Office in Dover
during the last sixty days than were
recorded in the last two years. And
it is said to be only the beginning.
Not a cannery in the State will open
it's doors this season, with the excep-
ton of three small ones on limited
acreage, in Blackbird, Smyrna and
Dover, respectively.
Conservative estimates place the

Tomatoes-Main crop could not be
set until July /, unlikely that they
will mature in time for crop. Can

Prof. Webb Cites Figures
Professor Wesley Webb, secretary
of the State Board of Agriculture,
stated yesterday that there would be
$3,OOO,OOO loss on fruits, S1,5OO,ooo
loss on wheat, $1,O00,000 loss on to-
matoes, and 100000 loss on pota-
toes. These are conservative estl-
mates, and to them must be added the
great deficiency expected in corn, the
berry loss, grapes, and general short
ages of all kinds due to curtailment
of growth in June. $1O,OO0,OOO is
probable estimate made at this time
in products alone.

WORLD WAR HERO
Marine Corps Records Show
Honors for Dover Boy

The adjutant generals Office has
Just received a batch of 123 card
records of Delaware men who served
in the Marine Corps during the
World War. Only .ozen of these
names were previously known to the
Office, as the men joined by volunteer
ing and from many widely separted
localities, where they happened to be
at the time.
One of these discloses war hero
in the person of Glider Davis Jackson,
Jr., born in Dover, July 5, 1893, who
Joined the colors April Is, 1917. He
went to Paris Island, S. c., and from
there to Quantico, Va, and overseas
July rs, 1918, where he served until
his discharge, August 20, 1919.
He was at first temporary second
lieutenant, then full first lieutenant
and afterward captain.
He served at Chateau Thierry, in
the Aisne Marine defense, in the Ar
gonne and at st. Mihiel and with the
army of occupation.
His record includes three croix d.
guerre decorations and five citations
one of which entities him to wear thu
"Fourragiere"' shoulder cord. He re
ceived a slight gunshot wound o,
June IL, in one engagement.
He was at the Marine Corps depot
St. Louis, Mo-, as reserve officer Of
March 20 Of this year.
Despite his heroic record, no trac
of it was on file at the state head
quarters until this card was received
Mr.. Jackson adds lustre to Dover
already glorious record during tn
war. Friends and relatives there ar
especially proud of their blue ribbo
hero.

The dispute over the island has

the tiny speck is to be the subject of

The great victory of the College
team over Mississippi College last
Monday by score of two to one
will go down in Bay history. The
Clinton team ranks as the best team
in the state and deservedly so. The
St. Stanislaus team went into the
game to win, all odds were against
them but Hippo Phillips was in the
box and this alone more than evened
up. 1t was pitchers duel and the
best pitcher won. The five hits the
upstate collegians garnered were
scattered and but two of them were
clean bingles. Every man on the
team starred in backing Hippo at
sometime Or other in the game. With
men on bases Mississippi Colleges
best batters made futile efforts to
solve Phillips delivery. Jaubert
wears the big mitt and is the best
battery mate Hippo ever had. Fors-
ter Commagere has developed
bunch of hitters this year and clean
hitting and has driven good pitchers
from the mound several times al
ready this season. Even the pessi-
mists are conceding now that the
team is probably the best that has
represented the College and the Bay
for years. The great showing to date
has justified the-big schedule, a copy
of which is appended:
