THE WAR BABIES MARCH

There tragic irony in the conditions under which the French has called it's latest class for military training The boys who have just been conscrpted under the system of compulsory military service in France were born during the World War They are the war babies and they have been summoned to the coors in period o such general apprehension that the French have felt cessary double the term of their training In exactly generation Europe has progressed from wartoendwars situation that threatens to produce more terri ble conflict this time that may end civilization.
 The generation that trained for war, not only in
 France but Germany and every other European country with compulsory service started life under serious handl- cap The wartime scarcity of food resulted in much mal nutrition among children Then when the children of 1914 and 1918 ready to their living they found their opportunities greatly diminished by the economic distress that was direct consequence of the And they are confronted with the fact the sacrifices of that conflict have not been able to in Europe for than generation The experience of these war bab ies is bitter commentary upon the incompetent manage ment of human afairs.-Kansas City Star.

Rumpler Plans A
 Plane Which Will
 Fly lN Passengers
(By The Associated Press)

(By The ASSoclated PreSS)
 BERLIN, July 4, - The disaster of the U. S. Navy's airship Macon, which has revived speculation here as to the ultimate worth of lighter than air craft, has thrown into sharp relief the plans of a German inventor for a 170-passengers heav- fer -than-air flying boat designed to cross the Atlantic from Hamburg to New York in 16 to Is hours.
 The designer is Engineer pr. E. Rumpler, builder of the famous Rumpler- -Taube fighting planes of World War fame and of dozen oth- CT types of planes.
 Little Air Resistance
 The chief advantage claimed for the Rumpler trans-ocean plane is it's lack of air resistance. Viewed from the front, it is merely one enormous wing, mounted on two pontoons which taper back to the tail-steer- ing fin.
 Equal load distribution is the sec ond prime feature of the plane. En- gines-there are ten, each of 1000 horsepower-passengers and express are all inside the wing, which is high enough to accommodate a man standing, and which has a spread of 289 feet. The wing is Al feet from front to rear.
 Dr. Rumpler says he has achieved decentralization. Instead of a cab in in the middle, with other weights such as motors fuel, pay load, as in the average plane, which puts too much strain on the wings, he has built wing strong enough to car ry the entire load equally distribut- ed.
 Planes Interior
 The interior of the wing looks like Pullman corridor. It is divid- ed from end to end. On the port side are passenger accommodations much like those of a train with port holes facing the direction of flight. Behind are the ten engines, each with its own attendant and operated independently with it's own four bladed propeller.
 The plane would cost $1,000,000. The second and third would cost ap- proximately $8OO,0OO.
 Such a plane could reach Honolulu from San Francisco in 12 hours with useful load of 70 tons and could conceivably push on from there to Manila in g hours. It also would be invaluable to British interests as link with India and the colonies, fact which recently has attracted British syndicate to inquire about the patents.

Gen. M'Arthur's Status
Arouses Speculation
Chief of Staff of Army Holds Post Pending
Enactment of Legislation
Changes Announced.

y REGULATION continues con-
- corning the future status OF
the chief Of staff of the Army.
- Gen. Douglas Macarthur.
When he completed his four-year
term of efice as chief of staff last
December he was continued in that
capacity by President Roosevelt, who
tersely announced that he would "be
retained as chief of staff until pres
ent contemplated legislation is COM
pleted." The White House announce
ment also added he would not be re-
appointed for q full four years. The
legislation referred to is the Army
promotion bill IS. 1900. This meas
ure is still pending in Congress, the
indications being that it will be en-
acted into law during this session of
Congress.
Since the creation of the General
Staff Corps by the act of February
IA, 1903, Is general officers, includ-
ing Gen. Macarthur, have served in
the capacity as chief Of staff Of the
Army, and in no instance has a chief
of staff been reappointed. Besides,
the President Is known to be opposed
to the reappointment of branch chiefs
Of the War and Navy Departments,
and in view of the White House verbal
announcement last December that
Gen. Macarthur would not be re-
appointed for a full four years. this
policy will probably include the chief
Of staff Office as well.
Another chief of branch vacancy
was created on July l by the retire
ment on that date, at his own re-
quest, of Maj. Gen. James F. McKin-
ley, adjutant general. His successor
has not been designated. Brig. Gen.
Edgar T. Conley is acting as adjutant
general
Between now and the end Of this
calendar year three other chiefs of
branches will complete their four
years Of Office in their respective
capacities. They are, with the dates
on which their tours of duty expire,
as follows: Maj. Gen. George E.
Leach, chief of National Guard Bu-
reau, November 80; Maj. Gen. John F.
Preston, inspector general, November
80, and Maj. Gen. Benjamin D.
Foulois, chief of Air Corps, Deem
Der 81. Brig. Gen. Michael A. De-
Laney, assistant surgeon general and
commandant Of the Medical Field
Service School, Carlisle Barracks, Pa,
will complete his four years in that
capacity on December 81.
