ENGLAND HONORS
HEROES OF 1
LONDON', June 20.—Six new
names were written today on Eng
land's new honor list—the aerial
gallantry roll. As the result, six
medals' of the Distinguished Service
Order of the Military Cross have
been awarded to members of the
Royal Flying Corps for a type of
gallantry unknown before the pres
ent war.
One of the birdmen newly honored
is Lieutenant Malcolm Henderson.
Seaforth Highlanders, who lost a leg
*y shell fire at an altitude of 7,000
feet. Despite his injury he succeed
ed in maneuvering his machine from
above the enemy's lines to a place of
safety behind the British lines, thus
saving his aeroplane, his life and the
life of his observer.
Lieutenant Frank Hudson, 18, was
severely wounded in the head while
on reconnaissance duty flying over
the German lines. He clung to con
sciousness until he had piloted his
aeroplane to a place of safety and
then fainted. On previous occasions
he had brought down two enemy ma
chines.
“For conspicuous gallantry and
skill” is the officially worded an
nouncement of honor for Captain J.
E. Tennant, Scotch Guards, who ef
fected a night bombing of an enemy
aviation shed. He shut off his en
gine, descended to within thirty feet
of the objective and dropped his
bombs. Atlhough the explosion dam
aged his machine, he restarted the
engine and escaped only to request
another machine on his return with
which to repeat the operation.
Lieutenants Thomas Howe and
Edward Legget, in the same ma
chine, merited decorations for
downing two enemy machines during
a single flight. After dispatching
the first they winged to a higher al
titude and engaged the second. Beth
enemies were downed by machine
gun fire.
A number of conspicuous feats are
attached to the record of Lieutenant
Henry Yates, the last named on the
official honor roll. His outstanding
accomplishment was the destruction
of an enemy waterworks under ter
rific fire.
With anti-aircraft guns roaring
and a company of infantry firing on
him he brought his machine down
to within 800 feet and launched his
bomb. It dropped in the center of
the waterworks, destroying it. He
then intrepidly attacked the in
fantry with his machine gun and
routed it.
STEEL MILLS BOOKED WITH
ORDERS FOR MONTHS TO COME
The head of a large independent
steel company says: “Steel prices
are entirely too high, and the fact
that concessions in certain classes of
the products are being made is not
surprising. The prices may go lower,
but the fact must not be lost sight of
that the mills have sufficient busi
ness on their books to keep their
plants in operation for the remain
der of the year. I believe the ca
pacity of the steel mills of the coun
try is now sufficient to take care of
all the domestic and foreign con
sumption. I do not approve of rec
ord-breaking outlays for the new
construction when the men are need
ed in the mills.”

First Woman District
Attorney Makes Good
SAN FRANCISCO, June 20.—Mrs.
Annette Adams, whose appointment
as assistant United States attorney
caused excitement in officialdom in
Washington and San Francisco, has
made good.
While here on a visit Federal
Judge Bledsoe, of Los Angeles, went
out of his way to pay hie respects to
the federal prosecutor and tell her
he was sorry he had opposed her ap
pointment. ‘ I’ve got to take off my
hat to you,” said Judge Bledsoe.
“You have made good., and never
again will I refuse to endorse a
woman in any capacity.”
During the bomb plot sensation in
San Francisco Mrs. Adams worked
all night and prevented an important
indictment from being quashed on
account of technical errors.
Mrs. Adams is distinctively femi
nine, not only in her personal man
nerisms and attributes, but in her
methods of procedure in the court
room. Her personality gives the
austere chambers a “homey” atmos
phere. She presents her arguments
quietly, but with great fidelity to the
essentials.
During the absence of District At
torney Preston Mrs. Adams directed
the affairs of the office without a
hitch. Her handling of the U. S.
neutrality cases especially won ad
miration.
Philip Abrahams, secretary ot the
Skagway Commercial Club, has an
nounced himself as a candidate for
treasurer of that town.

The New Remington
Is The Great Time Saver
ONE feature alone saves enough time in ordi
nary correspondence to pay for this new
Remington. That is the Improved Column Selector.
Surprising Speed
Your typist averages a dozen
“starting points” on each letter
with envelope. If he writes 40
letters a day the new Column
Selector saves from 20 to 30
minutes time. This time was
formerly wasted in slow tap-tap
taps to reach starting points on
the letter sheet and envelope.
With this new feature your
typist slips your letterhead in
the paper roll. He presses a
Column Selector key: Instant
ly the carriage runs and toes
the mark where the date should
be typed.
Acts Going and Coming
He writes the name. Then
he presses another Column Se
lector key and the carriage
comes to exact position for the
“street and number. ” An
other key starts the “city and
state.”
Down the page it goes—in
stantly starting paragraphs,
“Yours truly" lines, names
and addresses on envelopes—
as precisely as though measured
by scale.
The new Column Selector Insure# a neat
uniformity in all letter# that leave your
office. It gives your typist more minute#
to type. He doesn’t waste time doing
thing# hit machine ihmld do for him.
It will pay you to step in and see the
#ix time-saving improvements on this new
Remington.
