Airplanes, as means OF food distri-
button, are now being used over
considerable section Of the eastern
famine area. These machines carry
several hundred pounds Of supplies,
usually articles needed in an emery
ency by relief workers who are in in
accessible places Though their ca
pacity is limited, the number OF trips
they can make in a day Is very large,
and as messenger vehicles they are
proving invaluable in checking up on
conditions over large areas.
At first the arrival Of an airplane
near a village almost depcpulated the
place. When 1t became evident,
however, that these terrifying sky
wagons were food transports this
fear soon gave way TO interest and
admiration. Now the most difficult
part Of the relief aviator's work is TO
make a landing anywhere in the vi
cinity OF a village without moving
down the inhabitants.
To widen the range OF this afr
plane service, gasoline supplies have
been cached in various districts, en-
abling planes on messenger or fam

from the larger cities for several
days at time. In investigating new
areas they are much more efficient
than any other means yet found,

enemies, forcing them to ride for
hours above the smother Of dust and

G0UNARIS DECLARES
TURKS FLEE IN PANIC;
CONSTANTINE ACTIVE

ATHENS, July 20-M. Gounaris, the
Greek premier, yesterday told the
newspaper men that the Turks fled
from Kutaia panic-stricken, abandon
ing their arms, and that the Greeks
cut off their retreat toward Eski-
Shehr. According to unofficial re-
ports the evacuation of Eski-Shehr
has commenced. King Constantine
is leaving for the Smyrna front.
ONSTANTINOPLE, July 20-The
Greek government is alleged by COM
mercial interests to have established
censorship of business and press
kilograms over lines from Constan-
tinople touching Greek territory, this
action causing numerous strong pro-
tests to be made to the United States
authorities and to the allied high COM
mission here. Pending a reply from
the Greeks as to these charges the
allied high commission has placed the
wireless at the disposal of their ma
tionals.
While the cables from Constantin-
ople to Great Britain belong to the
British Eastern telegraph company,
they touch some of the Greek islands,
and the alleged censorship is being ap-
piled at these points. Some of the
foreign correspondents are charging
that the Greek censor has been alter
ing their messages to suit the purposes
of the Greek propaganda.

OH BOY! IT'S GONNA
BE COOLER TONIGHT

A drop of 20 degrees Wednesday
from the maximum Tuesday caused
local citizens to think of frost long
ingly although Weatherman Moore
laughed when the idea was suggested
to him. The temperature touched 81
a little before sunrise.
The old fuzzy blanket felt pretty
good last night and Richmond snooz-
ers pulled the coyer up a little higher
to enjoy one of the best nights sleep
that the weatherman has provided
this summer.
Cool weather will continue tonight,
according to Moore with a slight rise
in temperature Thursday due to
barometric pressure. Hot weather
will not be here before late Friday or
Saturday.
Prepare for another good nights
sleep because the old thermometer
will drop little below 81 tonight, it
is predicted.
