Examinations Will Be Given
to Recruit EIigibIes for
Service, However.

Although FIVE prohibition admins

and agents failed in the civil service
examinations now underway. new ex
aminationS to be given for some ad
miniStrative posts in 81 States are
not being offered. it was explained
on behalf Of the Civil Service Com
mission today, in order TO make IL
possible for present employees to
qualify for their Jobs.
II. T.. Morgan, director of recruit.
Ing of the commission. said today the
shortage OF eligihles in various ad.
miniStrative posts was the cause for
issuing new examinations. There
have been many failures. he admitted.
both in the administrative and in the
agents posts.
Prohibition Commissioner Doran last
night said the commission had been
asked to soften its examination re-
ouirements, following failure of many
OF the present prohibition stan
throughout the country.
Question of Eiigibles.
Mr.. Morgan, in discussing the sit
uation today, said he did not wish to
appear as contradicting or opposing
the Prohibition Bureau in any way. as
OF the examinations. and working out
problems. But he emphasized that "it
is not a question of whether men now
holding the jobs qualify or not. It's
question" he explained, "of wheth.
er we have enough eligibles.''
The ''fiunks" have averaged high,
DR.. Doran explained. and in the South
have run as high as SIS per cent.
New examinations announced for
administrative posts in the "a States
include those sections where admins
traitors failed. at Savannah, Fort
Worth. Los Angeles, st. Louis and
San Francisco.
The experience requirements of the
original examinations have been ma
terially changed for these new ex.
aminations," said Mr.. Morgan. such
changes as were made, however, were
not made because of the protests of
any one, or with any individual or in.
dividuals in view. but were the re.
suit of the commissions own expert
ence."
5000 Have Passed.
The commission has completed ex.
animation of the written tests of
agents and investigators throughout
the country and has found about 5000
have passed this first step toward
qualifying. Mr.. Morgan said. Many
failed in this first test. Next will
come the oral tests. fingerprinting and
comparisons with penal records, and
also character investigations. There
are 1000 position to be filled, and
some of the 5000 are expected to be
eliminated in the additional two trials.

Luke'S plane was so badly damaged
that he was barely able to reach the
home field before 1t collapsed. Never
theless, he attacked two enemy supply
trains on his way home to use up his
remaining cartridges.
1t was now almost dark. but he
leaped into another plane and took off
again in search of his squadron. which
was flying In formation somewhere
above the lines. While searching for
them he saw signal light Pickering

flew toward 1t 70 investigate and found
the third German balloon which had
been moved by its crew when he de-
stroyed its two companions. Luke
was entirely alone and miles from
any help. but he plunged to the at.
tack with his usual audacity. sending
the balloon down in flames at the
first attack. Immediately he was the
center OF q storm OF fire from the
ground; his plane was almost torn to
shreds but his engine was untouched
and enough of the wing surface was
left to keep him in the air Circling
saw thousands of lights where the
German reserves were massing in sup
port OF the great attack of the NOR.
row. Heading for home with his tat.
tered plane, he found that It could not
climb to q safe altitude and he was
forced to cross the American lines at
q height OF only a few hundred feet.
AS his plane had no identifying signal
lights he finished his journey through
a whiriwind OF anti-aircraft fire from
the guns of his own Army, surviving
this with the same miraculous luck
which had preserved him from the
German marksmen. II was now $40
and night had fallen. Luke was hope.
lessly lost when he landed roughly but
safely in a French wheatfield with
three more balloons chalked up on his
record.
No one will ever know what effact
Luke's destruction OF the Germa n
"eyes" had on the mind OF their high
command; history tells only that the
planned counter attack never took
place.
The Great Air Battle In History.
The 18th was a bad day Of wind
and rain that kept the flyers OF both
armies on the ground. but the 18th
dawned clear and cool. II was to be
historic and tragic day for the new
fiedged American Air Service. before
night came Frank Luke was to stage
before the eyes OF half n million men
an aerial battle without an equal In
the entire history OF the Great War
a battle which was to win him the
title of ace OF aces and fll the camp
of the eth with mingled JOY and
mourning.

Wehner took to the air to destroy two
balloons which had been sent up dur.
ing the morning by the persistent
Germans. Unknown to them. these
