MITCHELL UNF AIR,
BINGHAM DECLARES
Senator. Former Air Officer,
Says CoIonefs Charges
Are Exaggerated.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW HAVEN. Conn. September Z.
United States Senator Hiram Bing
ham who MAS comma nder of the
largest American fiying field In Europe
during the World War. sa id today
that many Of the statements of Col.
William Mitchell in his charges
against the War and Navy Depart
ments are exa sEerated.
Senator Bingham recently com
pleted a visit to The ma iority Of the
air stations Of the Army and Navy
on both The Pacific and Atlantic
coasts He is a member Of the Senate
committee on military affairs and Sen
ate committee on commerce.
Il feel that many Of Col. Mitchell's
statements are exa asEerated. the Sen
atnr said. and that his attacks on the
Army and Navy are very unfair to
many loyal and patriotic officers who
are devotng their lives just az unself
ishly he is To the grave problems
Of national defense.
He seems to me to he particularly
unfair TO the conscientious naval
aeronautical engineers who designed
the 1ying boats for the Hawaiia n
flight As a matter of fact they rep
resent the last word in that type of
aircraft.
Il would be better satisfied if the
Navy placed their flying schools air
plane carriers and aeronauticaI opera
tions in the hands of flying officers
instead of non-fiyers. The Army did
this long ago.
Col. Mitchell has been unfair in his
failure To give the Army Air Service
credit for their extremely successful
operation OF the MANY airways over
which one million miles of flying have
taken place in the past three years
without single fatal accident.
He has also neglected to give prop
or credit 10 the remarka BILE progress
made by the ARMY engineering lab
oratory at McCook Field in Dayton.

have heen made during the past FIVE

convinced also that Col. Mitchell un-
doubt edly wants to he court ma rtialed
and perhaps cashiered being con-
scious of the fact that he has friends
enough in Congress to take up his
case and perhaps to confound the
military authorities who would dis
cipline him for his outspoken utter
ances.
They have been reluctant to reach
this conclusion, for they have known
the colonel as an earnest and efficient
officer and have felt that he could
work his will in the Army in the reg
uIar way. But the colonel has grown
impatient. lie has listened TO some
Representatives and perhaps some
Senators. who have offered 70 intro
duce bills commissioning him a ma jor
general, whether the War Department
would have IL so or not.
Col. Mitchell, IL is said, also ha s
banked very hea Willy upon the support
OF Gen. Pershing but OF all things
Gen Pershing is a discipline ria n and
ne would do nothing to break II down
in the Army. even TO help his aide
of the American expeditionary forces.

forces in France.

opinion that out OF the disa Of
last week and out OF the row started
by Mitchell there may come after all
unifica zion of the flying services.
Most of the officers nevertheless be
lieve in keeping the military and
naval branches separate. but they
also believe Congress MAY reach the
conclusion 10 try the experiment Of
putting all aviation under single
control and direction. 81 Mitchell has
advocated these past few years and
as Great Britain has done.
1T is recalled that President Hard
Ing was very much in fe vor of com
bining both the War and Navy de
partments under one cabinet head.
The idea then was that there should
he three subchiefs. one directing the
Army, one directing the Navy and
the third directing the aviation forces.
Congress may give heed 10 this
recomme nda ton as one way out of
! the present pTedica ment.

BRAND were perhaps his superiors in
debate. but none could move audiences
as did Viviani by the simple seduction
Of speech regardless OF subject mat
ter Possessed of a clear, high tenor
voice which he learned to use with
astounding effectiveness the Parisia n
lawyer had many times demonstrate ed
his ability to hold under the spell of
his oratory an audience that under.
stood not word of French, and had
often wrested acclama tions from poliI-
ical opponents who disa greed with
every statement he made. Had he
adopted the stage as profession
instead of the law many believe he
would have made the greatest actor
OF all time.
Always an active worker in the
campaign to separate the affairs of
church and state, Niviani acquired
first fame as an orator in the coun-
ellis of the Socialist party and con-
f1rmed it in the Chamber of Deputies
by a speech urging the government to
eliminate religious influence from
public affairs. Probably no other
orator in the world could have ex-
pressed the same anti-clerical senti-
ments. even in the French Chamber
OF Deputies. without being hooted
down, yet Viviani invariably brought
the entire Chamber to its feet ac-
claiming statements with which
goodly number diss greed and which
were OF no interest to a great many
more.
Like most Frenchmen, Viviani had
penchant for writing. Early I'm his
career he collaborsted on the Man
terno. when BRAND was its editor.
and after the World War he con-
trihuted largely to the American
press, confinins his writings chiefly to
European politics.

Tried to Avoid War.
As prime minister In the most
tremendous crisis in French history
since the revolution. Vivian nj imme-
diately put into effect the pacific poll
cies which had marked his political
career from the first He seconded
heartily the efforts of Sir Edward Grey
to bring about mediation between the
disinterested powers, and even invited
the criticism of his own people by
Withdrawing the French troops seven
miles from the frontier in order to
avoid incidents that might invoke war
Fiviani was in Petrograd with
President Poincare when the Austrian n
ultimatum was delivered to Serbia
and Immediately notified his govern
ment to advise a conciliatory attitude
in the part of the challenged nation.

Had Difficult Role.
In the eantime Viva nj had visited
the United State with Marshal Joffre

which came here to consult with the
government on the European war
He made a second visit 1921 on the
eventful occa sion of the Washington
armament conference. when his role
was far more difficult.
The political career of Viva nj.
While remarkable in many respects,
was not so notable. perhaps, as his
talents promised. His statesma mike
qualities were legion, vet they were
nullifed to considerable extent by
the extreme nature of his views on
social and religious questions. Those
who knew him throughout his life
We're agreed that few men had as
sumed graver responsibilities than he;
few had acquitted themselves with
more honor in the performance of
tremendous tasks. and none had
eaualled him in political faithfulness.
yet they knew, too. that he would
find place in history only as a.
mover of men by the charm OF speech
He lacked the great essential quality
of cooperation.
