Washington.-With Atlantic and
Pacific fleet air forces modified at
bases ON the two coasts, an intensive
program of summer and fall maneu-
verS is being planned by Capt. William
A. Moffatt, director Of naval aviation.
Starting with the joint army and
navy bombing tests off the Atlantic
coast, designed to test the offensive
value of aircraft against naval YES
sells, navy flyers will be put through
several months of stiff exercises.
Early in July the naval airship ZR-2,
purchased in Great Britain, will fly to
this country in charge of an American
crew. A great aerial demonstration
will mark her arrival. D~etachments
Of seaplanes, flying boats and dirigi-

cities TO Philadelphia, then proceed TO
the giant navy hangar at Lakehurst,

to be erected in this country.
Experts from Great Britain will
superintend the erection Of the mast
which will be a steel structure about
$50 feet high with q swiVeled bride
at the top to which the nose of the
dirigible will be moored, permitting
the ship to swing always nose to the
wind. The structure will cost about
$4,000, and probably be fitted with
an elevator to carry the crew of the
dirigible to and from the ground.
After being thoroughly o~verhauled,
the ZR-2 will undertake a cross
country cruise to show the ship to
the people.
Will Pass over Many Cities.
Present plans call for a trip TO Chi

PRETTY GIRLS
TELL STORY OF
GERMAN ORGIES
TWenty Beautiful MaideRS Ex-
pose Lore Affairs of
Berlin Sculptor.

BERLIN. June 22.-The alleged am
ours of George Ahrens, sculptor, were
related in court here today by twenty
girls, who declared he attempted to ruin
their lives.
Rich. athletic and handsome Ahrens
sneeringly listened to the statements of
the pretty girls who told their stories
tearfully or boldly, as the judges asked
for descriptions Of Bacchanalian parties
in Ahrens studio on Westerland villa.
There were poor girls in shabby
dresses and cotton stockings and pert
girls in silks. cut to the latest fashions.
But all of them were pretty and all of
them shapely chosen by a famous sculp-
tor with a sure eye for graceful limbs
and fingers.
Ahrens is a man of about fifty, His
alleged offenses occurred two years ago,
since when he has been held in exam
nation Imprisonment awaiting his hear
ings. lie revealed nothing of his defense
today as the evidence piled up against
him.
GIRLS BECOME
MOVIE ACTRESSES.
Meanwhile many of the girls named In
the charges against the sculptor have
become ballet dancers, movie actresses
and models. only few failing to make
use of their blonde or brunette beauty
to earn a living.
According to their stories they were
employed at different times as models
in Ahrens' studio. If the girl pleased
him he made the customary approaches
with the offer of money, with dinners
and wines. Once they had yielded in
part, they said, he attacked them. How
ever, of the twenty girls in the hearing,
they said, Ahrens had accomplished his
full purpose in only few cases. The
little beauties who yielded completely,
they said, were taken to Ahren's sump-
tuous WesteRland Villa in Paris.
GIRLS SHOW
NO RESENTMENT.
One of the witnesses claimed that one
of Ahrens' victims was his own illegiti-
mate daughter. Some of the girls who
waited the hearing were accompanied by
shabby mothers, obviously bowed by
grief and shame Two fthem wereac-
companied by brothers who belligerently
warded off ell questioners and doubled
their fists The girls personally showed
little resentment against Ahrens. One
blonde, whose brown eyes looked square
ly at her questioner, smiled as she said.
''Well, he didn't drive US to the street.
We all have jobs and we're getting
along"
The trial will be continued tomorrow
Meantime twenty of the prettiest girls in
Berlin are waiting, twisting their ha ndker-
chiefs in the ante-roOm as they nervously
speculate on the hour when they will be
called into court to face the handsome
man charged with their ruin.
