Game In U. s. Forest Ruled
Beyond State Jurisdiction
By the Associated Press.

~ the ASeoctateo FfeSS.
RALEIGH, N. c., Nov. 1S.-Fed-
eral Judge I. M. Meekins ruled to-
day that the Federal Government
has exclusive Jurisdiction over game
In the Pisgah National Forest and
granted the United States q perma-
nent injunction restraining North
Carolina from interfering with the
National Park Service in the super.
vision Of deer in the 81, ,000-acre tract.
Judge Meekins said he based his
decree upon q special act Of the
1915 General Assembly Of North Car
olina. which granted the Federal
Government authority to make AL
needful rules and regulations" for
the protection of game in Pisgah.
The jurist said that in his opinion
the 1915 act conferred upon the
United States exclusive Jurisdiction
with regard to game" He added
that game included, in addition to
deer, all other animals, game birds
and fish, within the area.
The ruling was signed today In
Elizabeth City, home of Judge Meek
ms, and will be filed here Monday
at the ONCE of the United States
District Court, he said.
The suit resulted when National
Forest Service agents attempted to
ship deer out Of Pisgah to other
parks. North Carolina game ofiicials
arrested the Federal agents for vio-
lating State game laws, and the
Federal Government asked that the
State be restrained from interfer-
ence.

Used 10 Propaganda,

So Readily, Says Bliss
Seventh Division
Officers Association
Hears Veteran

Lessons learned In the last war
will make 1t more dimcult to raise
the temper Of the American peo-
pie to fighting pitch In days to
come, Col. E. Goring Bliss, general
commercial manager Of the Chesa-
peake & Potomac Telephone Co. and
veteran Of the World War, yester-
day told members of the Seventh Di-
vision Ofncers' Association Of the A.,
=. F. in annual convention at the
Raleigh Hotel.
I'VE have become calloused to
propaganda" Col. Bliss declared.
There is not the same hatred.
Therefore, 1t will be harder to raise
the conflagration similar to that
Of 1914"
Regarding the present European
conflict, Col. Bliss, who went over
seas with the Sd Division and served
with the Transportation Corps, said:
Il can't help but feel that the
world burning today may be merely
a furnace In which something will
be wrought for which we will be
grateful later on"
I'm my opinion" he continued.
influences now in the world will
lead to some new order which will
make things we see going on today
impossible"
OF the lesson learned by those
who saw service in the World War
Col. Bliss stated: I'VE went into
that war with a hip, hip, hoorah
and came out with better knowledge.
We went into 1t with a narrow view
point and came out with a broad
viewpoint"
Col. Bliss was introduced by Owen
F. Monahan Of Baltimore, vice presi-
dent OF the association, who presided
IN the absence of former Senator
Davis Elkins of Washington, the
president. The luncheon meeting
was in charge Of Paul B. Parker
OF Arlington. Va, chairman OF the
Executive Committee.
Officers elected for the coming
year include Mr.. Monahan, presi-
dent; Mr.. Parker, vice president, and

ecutive Board: Joseph I. Cohen,

The final goal is to give the en-
pire what has been described off,

bottleneck of air power in a war.
Factories can produce war planes
by the thousands, but building up

more, is another matter. Under in

Sinking Of 13 Ships
In Week Raises Total
War Loss 10 128
5l4,690 Tons Of Vessels
Sent to Bottom During
II Weeks of Conflict
~ the Associated Press.

y the Associated Press.
Eleven weeks of war at sea was
climaxed yesterday by what may
be the worst disaster of its kind
since the conflicts beginning the
sinking by a mine of neutral liner,
with, oficial sources feared. the loss
of 140 lives, including women and
children.
The sinking of the ship-the
Netherlands steamer Simon Bolivar
ended week Of sea raiding that
added 13 vessels to the ever-growing
casualty lists. The raiding stretch
ed from the coast Of England to the
east coast of Africa, invading the
Indian Ocean for the first time, and
threatening Great Britain's vital
life line" to her colonies.
Great Britain suffered the great
est during the week-losing Z ships
but both Germany and neutral
nations also counted losses
known total since the war began of
128 ships with a tonnage Of 5l4,6 ,690.
If fears of the British admiralty
are borne out, the loss in the Simon
Bolivar sinking would raise the
known death total to 2,024.
At the end Of the week, Great
Britain's known total rose to So

first such loss in the war-sunk

ROME, Nov. 18.-An Italian Army
OF approximately q million and a
half men was kept under arms to-
day by government decree.
The decree published in the Of
f1cial journal authorized the main
tenance in active service OF the re-
servist classes Of 1902, 1908, 1909 and
1913, which were called up in Au .

Cost of Empire Air Plan Put
At $700,000, 900 First Year
Conodions Rely on U. S. Factories
For Training and Combat Planes

Of the worlds worst flying weather,
bush" flyers drone back and forth
between supply bases and mining
camps with cargoes of machinery,
explosives and food supplies be-
cause the airplane is the only trans
portation available.
Mounties Use Planes.
It was a World War pilot turned
bush flyer" Lee Brintnell, who CO.
discovered the famous radium de-
posits at Great Bear Lake in the
Mackenzie district.
Quick to take advantage of air
transportation, the Canadian fur
industry followed the mining in
dustry in flying supplies into, and
pelts out Of, the difficult and in
certain seasons inaccessible back
country.
The famous Royal Canadian
Mounted Police number 3,0OO-and
have only a few hundred horses.
They, too, employ airplanes for ex-
tensive patrol work.
So the 5000 Canadians who VOL
unteered for air force duty when
war was declared contained a gen.
erous sprinkling of men who knew
how to fly cross country with little
more than a compass to guide them
and to wrestle planes down to emer-
gency landings In q wilderness.
Canada had gone beyond that in
aviation. In 1923 the government
began subsidizing private flying
clubs for the announced purposes
of arousing interest in aviation, of
training pilots for commercial and
military flying, and Of developing
airports.
In practice the flying clubs
which ante dated the United States
Governments recently instituted
civilian pilot training program by
II years-actually began turning
out flyers for the British Royal
Air Force. Given the rudiments
Of flying, club members frequently
enlisted In the r. A. F. for advanced
training.
The net result, now that war has
come to the Dominion, has been
the immediate employment of the
flying clubs on q voluntary basis
as primary training centers. Scaled
up from them will be intermediate
training centers such as Camp Bor-
den and schools for advanced tram
ing such as Trenton, both in Ontario.
The bulk of the initial training
will occur in the prairie provinces
of Manitoba, Alberta and Saskatche-
wan.
In this nation of vast distances
and few big centers of population,
not more than two dozen of the SUBJ
sidized flying clubs could be estab-
lished prof1tably, but the youngsters
who took out membership made the
most of their opportunities.
At Edmonton, for instance, the
pre-war flying students regularly
used a broad highway for a landing
runway. Someone had built the
roadway during the boom days OF
the 1920's to serve . real estate SUBJ
division which never materialized.
AS the training program begins
taking shape. the bluish-gray uni
form Of the "airman," Is being seen
in increasing numbers In the streets
Of Vancouver, Montreal Ottawa and
other Dominion cities. Some will
remain fedglings for weeks to come
because new planes must arrive be-
fore they can get aloft.

down. He said he regarded that as
. big mistake.
Discussing possible sources of
raising more revenue now the Ne
braskan said he would not begin
at the lowest brackets but would
favor some increase nearly every
where else along the line on q grad
ual basis.
He would oppose lowering the
present personal exemptions of 81, 500
for married couples and $1,000 for
single persons, he said, but thought
persons earning from $4,000 to
$4,000 year could pay a little
more" as well as those with in
comes above that level.
Senator Norris admitted it might
mean taking some chance to hold
down new national defense plans If,
later on, war threat should arise
suddenly. He conceded also that a
distinction could be drawn between
naval and land preparedness. be-
cause of the fact the Army can be
expanded quickly in an emergency,
whereas it takes time to build naval
vessels.
He argued, however, that the pres
ent war in Europe, If it lasts any
length Of time, undoubtedly will de-
velop new means of defense, as the
World War did, and that If this
country proceeds to build up arma-
ments while the war is in progress,
1t will not be able to utilize the
experience to be gained from the
present conflict.
senator Norris agreed that expan-
sion OF the national defense program
would help a little in relieving un-
employment and is one factor to
be taken into consideration, There
are some signs of business improve
ment, he said, and the war will help
that trend. but he added he would
noe want to see anything like q boom
based on war orders. Such economic
improvement, he said, would be q
two-edged sword" likely to be fol-
lowed by a setback later on.
Senator Capper said that in New
York he found among businessmen
themselves the same feeling ex-
pressed by Senator Norris against
encouraging a war boom.
while great many people made
money out of the World War" said
senator Capper, "it is being recog-
nized now that in the long run it
was the worst thing that could have
happened"
The business situation is getting
better, Senator Capper said, and
should be reflected in the extent of
relief needs next year.
II have always felt" the Kansan
added, "the best way to solve the
unemployment problem is through
expansion of private business, by the
wider utilization Of idle capital"

OTTAWA, Ont, Nov. 18.-On the
broad acres of its prairie provinces
already made bleak by the north S
early winter, the Dominion OF
Canada is getting ready for the big
gest wartime job it has ever at
tempted-the training of $4,000
pilots a year for service In Europe.
The project is called the empire
air scheme" In it are included the
United Kingdom, Canada, Australia
and New Zealand. Behind it is a
single idea: That regardless of what
enemy bombing raids can do to the
British Isles, this sparsely settled
country-the whole of Canada has
only 11,000, 900 inhabitants, less than
the state of New York-can supply
a great reservoir of air fighters for
the war against Germany.
Canada fears no air raids on its
pilot training centers or its aircraft
factories. Germany, it contends, has
no planes which could fly the At
lantic with bomb load.

The recruits for Canada's aerial
army will come from Australia,
Britain and Canada itself. Before
Canada had been at war a week,
recruits had begun to stream into
enlistment Offices. Medical officers
had to call a halt. They couldn't
examine all the applicants.
Canada's flying traditions had
evoked the first response to the call
Tor volunteers. The Dominion's aces
had written their names in large
type In the history of air fighting
IN the war Of 1914-18. Roy Brown,
a Canadian, had shot down Ger
manys famous Red Knight
Baron Won Richtofen. BY the close
OF the war, about IS per cent of the
pilot personnel of the Royal All
Force were Canadians.
Last September, when the Domin-
ion Parliament asked London wi Il
Canada, now at war with GERMANY
was expected to contribute to en-
pire defense, the message came back
that air power might prove to be
the deciding factor in the conflict
Out of that was born the "empire
air scheme"
1t includes not only the training
OF pilot to fly pursuit, observation
bombing and attack planes, but the
accelerated manufacture of aircraft
as well. About a dozen Canadian
factories, fully half of them liber-
ally backed with United States capi-
tai, are turning out planes of vari-
Gus types.
Rely on U. s. Plane Factories.
