Allies

Will

Raids To Capita,

Of Germany Soon

NEW YORK. July 23. Although the alnes have the ascendency of the a.r, the possibilities rf aerial warfare ar et far from realization and an aerial offensive on a srrand scale carried to cities of Germany remote from the battle line, including Herhn. is in the realm of certainty in the not distant future, provided the allies, organize and coordinate their resources. This is: th? conviction of Maj. Hen. W. S. Hrancker, controller general of the Biitih air ministry, who has been in this country for several weeks in cor.f ultation with government officials in charge of aviation. Ma;. Gen. Brancker in a statement tonight to the Associated Press on this subject, laid strong emphasis on the necessity for organization of the ;. ir forces on a ha :. quite independent of the land and sea forces. This was forced upon the British Government, culminating last January in the creation of an air ministry which now has Iord Weir at its head. Will 'erd Air Sfx-rvtary Gen. Ilrancker said that eventually the United States would be obliged by the pressure of military necessity to create a secretary of air forces, or the equialent. under whom air fisrhtfng. airplane production, equipment and peronnel will function" ns a separate branch of combat jufrt as the army and navy. For the success of the allied cause, he feels strongly, that the quicker air independence is established in this country, the better. Another vital step to be accom pli3hed, he believes, is the co-ordination of the operation of all the allied air forces beyond those lequired for the respective armies and navie as an independent offensive force under the supreme war council ju?t as the allie. armies and navies are coordinated now. "We simply had to come to an air ministry in England,"' said Gen. lira ncker. "Tlie Zeppelin and the Gothas, coupled with the experience gained when aviation was controlled by the arm- and navy, forced it upon us. Public sentiment demanded it. You have had no Hun raids in this country to arouse you. but it is my hope that lackine this stimulus, you will profit by our experience and beKin at once on an even basis with us in this matter, instead of waitine for public sentiment to push up keep the fort for training purposes, but Gen. March finally yielded to the demand for a-great reconstruction camp. It follows, therefore, that with the departure of the Thirty-six infantry Fort knelling and its training camp will be no more. Gen. March is baid to have indicated the infantry rooiment would leave for Camp Custer in about ten days. It is planned to have the camp ready for the arrival in the United States of the tirst northwest wounded men. It is expected aecommondatiouf! will be provided for many thousands should the war continue for Tnore than another year. Each i e construction camp. according to preliminary plans made Uy-the war department, is to have provisions for recreation, for study and for the carrying out of vocational training. To Teach Many Things. The latter department of the camp N expected to be one of its greatest assets in rehttin the wounded soldiers to take up active life. Nearly every trade and profession that can be carried on by a partially disabled man will be tausrht. "1 pot just what I came after." Congressman Van Dyke i reported as sayinK in Washington today. "Fort Snellinfc will be used to rebuild the wounded boys brousht hack from France. They will be in their own climate and amon their own folks."

from th bottom a? in our case. Adnntacj of Control. "Are not the advantages of independent control obvious? Here ou have one branch of aviation under the administration of the .-ecretary of war, another under the secretary of the navy. These ministers hae many affairs to attend to in addition to aviation. They cannot deote themselves exclusively to it. Thev hav subordinates in charge and there j an aircraft production boari. but it is obvious that certain general problems must come before the .ecretary for decision which they would be much better able to pass upon if aviation were the exclusive function of their office. "In Great Britain.- we h-ave Lord Wier. the air ministe, as head of a council of seven a vice professor of the council correspondent to your assistant secretary of war or navy, a chief of air staff, equivalent to the first sea lord of the chief o the imperial general staff, a master general of personnel, equivalent to your adjutant general; a director general of equipment, the same as the quartermaster peneral. and mäste'" senera! of ordnance or the third and fourth sea lords; a director general of an craft production and an administrator of works and buildings. "Thi" council controls everything pertaining- to aviation both for land and sea. combat. It supplies th"1 army and Meet with airplanes and pilots, and in addition maintains an independent force. This independent air force really has the same status as the expeditions force or the grand fleet." .S. Yankee Victims of Huns are Revered by French Who Love America. , PARIS. July 10. (Correspondence.) Four, five and in many cases, six thousand miles from their maternal hearth, the American dead, heroes of the second battle of the Marne who have succumbed from grievous wounds in Paris hospitals, are mourned daily by French mothers, sisters and fathers who feel the emotions of these heroes' kindred at home. Dally the funerals leave the city hospitals for the little Suresnes cemetery dedicated to Americans by the city of Suresnes, located on a hill on the west of Paris, overlooking the French metropolis. Daily the republican guard in their picturesque and historic military attire, march forth to the funeral to bestow France's regard upon these American heroes: and though no volley is rired because it is forbidden by the French authorities, the American bugler sounds "taps" with impressive toninsr. A service is first held in the little chapel in the hospital. Protestant chaplains officiate over the dead of their faith and Catholic over theirs. Th" hospital organization organization such as can be spared, including nurses, orderlies, clerks and doctors, attends the service. Guard Tornas Ksoort. The bodies are borne from the chapel to waiting ponderous army motor trucks. The republican guard and the marines form an escort. As each body is brought to the conveyance, these military units execute "present arms." When all the dead have been placed upon their military bier, the procession to the cemetery starts. At the head are the chaplains in motor cars. Thn follow the motor trucks and last the guard of honor. The coffins are draped w ith American Flacs. Fach one bears two wreaths, one given by the republic of France and another by th city of Fans. Tricolor ribbons bind the wreaths. In letters of gold, the ribbons aie marked '"Aux befenseurs de la Patna." The little procession winds its way along th" boulevards. The French know it significance. Without exception a:: it passes. every pedestrian stops, uncovers and bow? i;. homage to the American heroes. Burial on summit. Keachins the summit of the hill of Suresnes, the burial of the bodi? bgin. A crowd of French mothers and listers gathers at the grave.:. Thev reverently listen to the chap!'n pronounce the last words, and heavy of heart, they feel the experinr' of those thousands of miles a w ay The American bugler takes hi place and lowly and feelingly sounds "taps."

The mothers and s.ters return to their home feeling the heaviness of the committal of the American heroes to t'le crave Their thoughts are carried to the mothers and sifters back hoire. . - The Suresnes cemetery is ?he gift of the suresnes municipality to the American army.
