T0 SELECT SITE FOR AIR SCHOOL

Plans to Establish ‘One Of Finest in Country’ at City Airport.

Col. Roscoe C. Turner, quitting closed-course flying after winning the Thompson Trophy three times in National Air Races, came to Indianapolis today to establish “the finest air school in the country.” Landing at Municipal Airport which will be the site of the venture, backed in part by local capital, Col. Turner said that the school will be subsidized by the Federal Government, will train some Army fliers, and will be set up along Army lines. He was accompanied by Col. L. B. Lent, attaciied to the Army Air Corps in New York, and they flew in a Firestone Tire & Rubber Co. plane piloted by E. J. Quigley from Cleveland. Choose Site Today

‘U-Boat Captain Helps Save, Freighter Crew Before Firing Torpedo.

By UNITED PRESS Ships lost in five days of war increased to 10 today when the Belgian steamer Jean Jadot notified the Radiomarine Corp., New York, that it had rescued 44 members of (the crew of the British freighter [Regent Tiger, sunk by a submarine. |One German submarine was reported destroyed with its crew. The Jean Jadot did not indicate [where the Regent Tiger went down, for if any other crew members were |lost or missing.

OTTAWA STILL HOLDING BACK

i|Canada ‘Apprehends’ War, But Delays Declaring Hostilities.

OTTAWA, Ontario, Sept. 8 (U. P.).—~Canada’s position in the European war was the same today as it was Sept. l—two days before Britain declared war on Germany. The Dominion still was the only one in the British Empire that had not declared war on the Reich. Parliament was in emergency ses sion to consider what GovernorGeneral Lord Tweedsmuir termed ‘effective action” in “the state of war which now exists.” This will include an appropriation to meet the expenditures necessitated by the war. The Dominion’s position presently is one of “apprehended’”—not “real” —war, in accordance with a proelamation under the War Measures Act of 1914, Prime Minister W. L. MacKenzie King said. The proclamation, dated Sept. 1-— two days before Britain declared war on Germany-said that a state of “apprehended” war had existed since Aug. 25. “A formal statement defining the position of Canada will be issued

He will head a staff that will train fliers to army methods to increase the reserve of fliers for war purposes. Several factors led to selection of Indianapolis, Col. Turner said. Among them was the fact that the airport here is one of the largest in the country and that he had been informed that the City is willing to lease ground for his school.
