for the act of a sentry VITO was
only doing his duty. The liberal
view is that the blame for the affair
rests with those responsible for. the
maintenance. Of troops, Japanese and
American alike. in Vladrvostok.
Yamato. the most jingoistic Of
Tokyo newspapers, calls the affair
'trifiing and asks why It should be
made an international incident sim
ply because tho victim was an
American who was killed by d
faithful sentry in performing his
duty. Japan has been patient and
not enrRged over what is a life and
death question for 100000 California
Japanese. The death of single
lieutenant cannot ne compared with
the California question in serious
ness" Yamato concludes: "Since
the other party in the dispute is
America We especially deprecate
temporizing methods"
Horozu calls the Japanese apology
Elaborate and profuse.'' while
Hochi says the government has
shown astounding timidity."
Nomiuri, in a lengthy editorial
voices the liberal view that the
Japanese people regret the Incl
dent even more than the authori-
ties" 1t blames the incident on the
warlike measures taken by Japan
csc in command at Vladivostok, a
peaceful city, in which battle orders
were given the japanese troops with
the result that faithful sentry obey
ed instructions to the letter.
Yomiuri questions the grounds for
a special inquiry by Admiral
Gleaves, declaring the reasons for
the incident are obvious and simply
expressed wonder at the American
motive in a special investigation
1t declares it impossible to order
not to challenge Americans, while
the troops remain they must follow
military procedure. 1t says: while
American and Japanese fighting
men remain in Nladivostok ii is i'm
possible to prevent recurrence OF
incidents like the Langdon shoot
ing. We believe the best course for
Japan and America and all other
countries is to withdraw theft troops
and warships from Vladivostok by
common agreement. Only by thus
eliminating the fundamental cause
of the trouble are occurrences pre-
Ventable. We should get both Jap
anese and American soldiers and
sailors out of VIadivostok."

NAVY AIR HEAD
WANTS MEANS TO

Craven Urges Flying Re

Working Bureau.

Establishment of a bureau of avi-
alton in the Navy Department as
"the most urgent need for naval
aviation" was urged by Capt. T. T.
Craven, head of that branch of the
service, in a statement presented
yesterday to the House Committee
on Naval Affairs. A second mat
ter "of grave Importance for the
future Of naval aviation is the main
tenance of a flying reserve" he said.
with the present knowledge of
the art of flying as it exists in the
service, the old organization of the
Navy Department is untitled 10

said, land the present bureau sys-

with the operations of ships, is not
organized to advance tho interests
of aviation
No Central Bureau.
There is at present, according to
Capt. Craven, no centralized or
ganization- in the Navy Department
TO represent and care for its naval
interests. He pointed out also that
there is no means for perpetuating
a naval reserve to maintain in
readiness for service thousands OF
young men trained as aviators who
are now available for the purposes
Of national defense and will re-
main so for a few years, after
which they will have lost their use

1T has been suggested that the
encouragement Of commercial avia-
tion supplies a means for procur-
ing reserve aviatOrs," he declared.
Such Is the case. and everything
that the government can do to fos-
ter and support civil aviation
should be undertaken and carried
on"
Must Develop.
THE tactics of army aviation are
fairly well developed" he said. but
very little has been done anywhere
in the world toward the develop
ment of naval aviation tactics" The
improvement of the meteorological
service on broader and better
lines" which will permit its fuller
utilization for purposes of aero
nautics," he said was necessary.
"At present, when a long fight
of any kind is under consideration,
it becomes necessary to organize a
special meteorological service to
cover the journey" he declared.
There is a crying need for laws
regulating the licensing of pilots
and the inspection of flying ma
chimes" he declared. THE enact
ment of such laws in the near fu-
ture is urgent, in that they make
