TAKING AMERICANS
 IN GREEK ARMY
U. s. Consul Protests Impress ment of U. s. Citizens ForCibly

Smyrna, June 17.-(By Associated Press)-American citizens are being impressed into the Greek army by agents of the Athens government, and George Horton, U. s. Counsel Gen. eral here, has made a vigorous pro- test to Governor Steriades against the continuance of he pracice.
 For many months past Americans, even men who served in the army in France, have been taken forcibly from their homes, or from vessels arriving from the United States and compelled 10 join the Greek forces.
 There have been scores of such cases in Athens, Smyrna, Patras and Saloniki, and only those able to es- cape and get into communication with American consular officers have ob- tained redress. In many instances they have been stripped of their clothing and their passports and other papers have been confiscated When they have protested, it is charged that they have been handcuffed, thrown in tho facts available.
 Consul General Horton declares this action by the Greek authoritiea is in fragrant violation of existing agreements between the United States and Greece.
 One case is cited as typical of many Private James Raftel Of New York city, who was cited for bravery in the Argonne campaign and who has been receiving disability allowance of $50 a month from the United States government. was recently arrested by Greek authorities at Mytilene. He came to Greece as an American citi- zen to be married, but was brought to smyrna under guard. He escaped surveillance and appealed to the American consul general here whose energetic action resulted in the mans immediate release. He now is return- ing to New York city with his wife.
 Consult General Horton has made 1t a practice when Americans have been released from the Greek army to put them on board boats and send them to America, he de- clares this is the only way of shield ing from further molestation. Mr. Horton has informed Governor Gen. eral Steriades that such contravention of American rights threatens the good relations existing between the two countries. Governor General Steriades has re- peatedly promised to remedy the sit uation and has repudiated the action of minor Greek officials but despite his efforts arrests of Americans continue
 MT. Horton has appealed to Wash- ington to discontinue this breach of the agreement existing between the l two countries.

 Advocates of the helicopter con- tend that the machine, if it can be perfected, will add new and valu- able weapon to aerial warfare. They assert that the device has all of the advantages of the captive balloon and few of its disadvantages. The heli- copter, they claim, is but slightly visible when in the air and there fore offers small target to gunfire; can shoot directly upward at enemy aircraft overhead; is non-inf1am-

 Naval aviators are interested in the helicopter idea, some of them be- lieving the device may provide the best means of taking long distance observations from battleships. Cap tive helicopters, it is also said, would be useful for gathering meteoro- logical data and for carrying radio antenna in places where radio masts to hold the aerial cannot be con- structed. ...#..

PHILOSOPHER MAKES
 NEW RECORD FLIGHT
Machine Said to Rise Vertically
 From Ground

Washington, June IA helicopter that in tests has already risen more than 15o feet vertically from the ground has been developed in Aus tria, according to reports from a Eu- ropean correspondent of the Nation al Advisory Board for Aeronautics. In view of the experiments now be- ing conducted by aviators in many countries, particularly the United States, France and Great Britain, in an effort to design and construct a successful helicopter. the news is considered of great importance by flying men here.
 According to the reports, the Aus trian heIicopter consists of a three armed frame built of steel tubes, equipped with three built-in gasoline motors of the Le Rhone type, each developing 120 horsepower. The mo- tors drive two propeller shafts re- voIving in opposite directions and the shafts in turn drive two propellors arranged one above the other on a central shaft, each nearly 20 feet in diameter. The propellors are at- tached to the upper plane of the he1icopter and reVolye Tn opposite directions at about 500 revolutions a minute. In the center or "hub" of the device above the propellors, is the operating compartment which is also fitted with a machine gun and a place for the gunner.
 Tn the tests so far conducted with the Austrian helicopter, according to the reports. the machine has been kept captive by means of cables, all lowing it to be hauled back to the earth at the conclusion of a flight by means of a winch. During one. such test, the reports assert, the lhelicopter rose to a low altitude and remained in the air an hour. In another test the machine ascended about 160 feet, carrying load equivalent to four men, and remained perfectly tranquil in a high wind.
 The device is equipped with

CATCH FEM YOUNG
Portsmouth, N. H., Fire Chief Is Or ganizing Junior Department of Youngsters for Practice.

Portsmouth, N. H., June IT, Catch your fire-fighter while young is the motto of William P. Wood, chief engineer of the Portsmouth fire de- partment, who has initiated a plan which promises to develop good crop of recruits for the force within few years. After consultation with state and city fire department and educational officials, he has set up a fire training school for boys.
 The first company has been formed, composed of fifteen boys ranging in age from 13 to IT years, who have been permitted to choose a captain and lieutenant. In addition to regu- lar periods of instruction at the fire stations the boys have been made regular "call firemen.'' They will not be used on fires in buildings, but will respond to all calls for help on grass, brush and woodland fires. The school authorities have agreed to release them instantly from their studies whenever an alarm for a fire of this character is sounded.
