(ry the ItermatIimI News !esles) .,Ahe "eyes et the German army" htay bean closed. Teutonio aviators can no longer act as range finders for their ar- tillery. The Germans are on the defense in the air as well as on land. Victory for the entente allies on the west front Is certain. Major W. H. B. Rees, of the British Royal Flying Corps., one of the greatest aviation heroes of the war, thus an- moed up yesterday the aerial situation in France. To a group of Washington news- papermen, Major Rees stated that the Germans have acknowledged their in- abillit) to regain the offensive. 'Then there are the Zeppelins: they are failures." he continued. "Zeppelins are no longer of any military use whatso- ever except In entirely unprotected re- gions-of which there are mighty few in Great Britain and France." Zeppelins are good only for attacks against the clvil population, he said. Encouragement of the plans of the Council of National Defense to send sev- eral units of American aviators to France immediately was given by Major Rees. Would Be Weleemed. "American aviators would be wel- comed." he said. "I hardly think the machine, now in use In the United States would be of service, because they are not fitted for our kind of warfare. However, the aviators may soon be eiuipped with the French or British type of machines, as we have offered this government the privilege of using all our latest patents. These patents are the result of the most skillful work of the leading aviation specialists of the world. "The German aviators no longer a t- tempt to take the offensive in France. They are outnumbered, and their ma- chines were not so efficient as ours. "The Germans. having admitted their inferiority In the air. have adopted light, swift machines for defensive work only. They never attempt to reconnoiter over our lines or to fIrd ranges for their ar- tillery. That lessens the efficiency of their army. Almost as Swift. "Our machines are almost as swift as those of the Germans, and in ours we carry two guns, one to be operated by the observer and one by the pilot. Also, we drop bombs over the enemy lines, which the Germans do not attempt any more. They don't dare to cross our lines. "Futhermore. the German pilots are classed as chauffeurs, and not as officers. In case of a life battle they will run away nearly every time. "The most fighting at present is done at 20,000 feet altitude. ''"We have three different planes of selevation for aviators. The larger ma- chInes, carrying two guns and a num- -ber of bombs, stay about 6,000 feet up. These machihes are actually pert of the artillery forces. "Then, the lighter machines, although they are heavy fighters, travel at about 10.000 feet. The still lighter machines, which are used as a' sort of aerial patrol and carry only one gun each, customa.rily fly at 20,000 feet elevation. These are the machines that are doing most of the fighting at present." Letters Found on Dead Man Te8l of Plot Against Wilson Trenton, N. J., April 30.-Coroner Bray, of Mercer County, declared today that letters bad been found in the pockets of Charles C. Mueller. of Indianapolis, Ind., who dropped deed here, indicating that plots egisted against the Uivee of a an- ber of prominent statesmen.

The appeal of military members of the French mission in the United States re- sulted late yesterday in the army gen- eral staff receiving orders to work out plans for the immediate sending of an American army to the west front. The plans, which are only tentative, must be passed upon by President Wil- son before they are put into operation. This was learned from high officials of the War Department. That an American force, whose size is as yet undetermined, will be on the fight- ing line within thirty days, seemed as- sured last night.

Alarmed at the sensational jump in the prices of various staple commodities, in- fluenced chiefly. It is believed, by war conditions, Secretary Houston .nd his aides last night mapped out a program for a fight to jam through Congress at the earliest possible moment, legislation which the President has sanctioned, to clothe the government with absolute power to control and fix prices of food- stuffs. Leaders at both sides of the Capitol previously gave the President and mem- bers of his Cabinet assurance that the authorization desired would be given, but parliamentary maneuvering has thrown obstacles in the way of this part of the war program. Secretary Houston and the experts associated with him will go to the Capitol today and insist upon im- mediate action. With the prospect that manipulators of food supplies and prices will have some of their excess profits curtailed, a lobby of food magnates has sprung up almost overnight, in an attempt to thwart the food program. To one group of such men, represent- Ing the big butter, egg and poultry in- terests of the West and Middle West, Secretary Houston made his position plain. As the spokesmen of these Interests, they called up the secretary to gain some measure of reassurance as to the effect the proposed legislation would have upon their lines of business. The only assurance they got was the statement that the administration views with deep suspicion the activities on some of the leading exchanges of the countrv. the dairy and poultry product exchanges included, and that the government would use every power the Congress may vest in it to throttle speculation in any form incompatible with the nation's interest during the war. GET WRONG PRINCESS; THIS ONE STRAIGHT Ellis Isla 4 Officials Thought They Were aking Ex-Convict. New York, April 30.-There is more than one Princess Radziwill, and immigration officials here admitted today that they probably had arrested the wrong one. Mrs. Catherine Kolb, formerly the wife of Prince Radziwill. was released from Ellis Island and will be permitted to lec- ture in this country for the benefit of Russian prisonersof war. The erstwhile princess obtained her freedom by convincing the immigration officials that she never had been in South Africa. A woman known as Princess Radziwiil once served a prison term in Capetown for forgery of Cecil Rhodes' name to a note. GEEEX IIG KAY QUIT. Rome.

While no definite arrangement hap vet been perfected, it is expected that Belgium will receive a loan of at least $150.000000. The French and Italian diplomats showed 'Mir. McAdoo what the needs of their nations are and impressed upon him the necessity for haste in coming to the relief of these nations. The Federal Reserve Board yesterday laid before Secretary McAdo a plan pro- viding for the issuance of a series of short-term Treasury certificates of in- debtedness, one block of from 3150.000.000 to $°00.000,000 every two weeks until the proceeds of the war bond issue are in hand sbout July 1. Secretary McAdoo is understood to re- gard this plan favorably, as it will pro- vide ready money and also will place In the hands of bankers securities with which they can pay for the war bonds when they are ready for issuance.

British Mission 10 Days More WILSON SEEKS SHIP CONTROL Administration Will Push Its Plans to Provide Tonnage for Carrying Supplies. American cargo ships must be made one of the greatest factors in winning the war. President Wilson and his advisers last night had reached this conclusion after preliminary conferences with naval ex- perts of the British and French missions. Administration leaders received word from the White House that Congress must act and act quickly to give the President absolute control of American shipping. in order to provide tonnage sorely needed to carry supplies of all kinds. Yesterday's conferences on the shir ping difficulties, developed problems of far more serious moment than those which hitherto have confronted governici heads.

Shipbuilders already have assured na- tional defense chiefs that they will adopt the most heroic methods to meet the, government's contracts. Following the informal meetings he- tween the shippinc authorities of the 1-nited States. Great Britain and France. it was practically certain that every ounce of strength that the shirring in- dustry of the nation ran muster will he used to develop the merchant marine program. $26,000,000 RAISE GRANTED MINERS 45,000 in Central Pennsylvania Dis- trict Will Benefit.

German AviatoSays Maj. Re<

Teutons on the Defensive inthe Air as Well as on Land,Head of the Royal FlyingCorps Avers.

(ry the ItermatIimI News !esles).,Ahe "eyes et the German army" htaybean closed. Teutonio aviators can no

longer act as range finders for their ar-

tillery. The Germans are on the defensein the air as well as on land. Victoryfor the entente allies on the west frontIs certain.Major W. H. B. Rees, of the British

Royal Flying Corps., one of the greatestaviation heroes of the war, thus an-moed up yesterday the aerial situation inFrance. To a group of Washington news-papermen, Major Rees stated that theGermans have acknowledged their in-abillit) to regain the offensive.'Then there are the Zeppelins: they are

failures." he continued. "Zeppelins areno longer of any military use whatso-ever except In entirely unprotected re-gions-of which there are mighty few inGreat Britain and France."Zeppelins are good only for attacks

against the clvil population, he said.Encouragement of the plans of the

Council of National Defense to send sev-eral units of American aviators toFrance immediately was given by MajorRees.

Would Be Weleemed."American aviators would be wel-

comed." he said. "I hardly think themachine, now in use In the UnitedStates would be of service, because theyare not fitted for our kind of warfare.However, the aviators may soon beeiuipped with the French or Britishtype of machines, as we have offeredthis government the privilege of usingall our latest patents. These patents arethe result of the most skillful work ofthe leading aviation specialists of theworld."The German aviators no longer a t-

tempt to take the offensive in France.They are outnumbered, and their ma-chines were not so efficient as ours."The Germans. having admitted their

inferiority In the air. have adopted light,swift machines for defensive work only.They never attempt to reconnoiter overour lines or to fIrd ranges for their ar-tillery. That lessens the efficiency oftheir army.

Almost as Swift."Our machines are almost as swift

as those of the Germans, and in ourswe carry two guns, one to be operatedby the observer and one by the pilot.Also, we drop bombs over the enemylines, which the Germans do not attemptany more. They don't dare to cross ourlines."Futhermore. the German pilots are

classed as chauffeurs, and not as officers.In case of a life battle they will runaway nearly every time."The most fighting at present is done

at 20,000 feet altitude.''"We have three different planes of

selevation for aviators. The larger ma-chInes, carrying two guns and a num--ber of bombs, stay about 6,000 feet up.These machihes are actually pert of theartillery forces."Then, the lighter machines, although

they are heavy fighters, travel at about10.000 feet. The still lighter machines,which are used as a' sort of aerialpatrol and carry only one gun each,customa.rily fly at 20,000 feet elevation.These are the machines that are doingmost of the fighting at present."

conditions, Secretary Houston .nd hisaides last night mapped out a programfor a fight to jam through Congress atthe earliest possible moment, legislationwhich the President has sanctioned, toclothe the government with absolutepower to control and fix prices of food-stuffs.Leaders at both sides of the Capitol

Secretary Houston andthe experts associated with him will goto the Capitol today and insist upon im-mediate action.With the prospect that manipulators

of food supplies and prices will havesome of their excess profits curtailed, alobby of food magnates has sprung upalmost overnight, in an attempt to thwartthe food program.To one group of such men, represent-

they called up the secretary to gain somemeasure of reassurance as to the effectthe proposed legislation would have upontheir lines of business.The only assurance they got was the

statement that the administration viewswith deep suspicion the activities on someof the leading exchanges of the countrv.the dairy and poultry product exchangesincluded, and that the government woulduse every power the Congress may vestin it to throttle speculation in any formincompatible with the nation's interestduring the war.
