LONDON, July 7 <tty mail). How a
British (lying squadron turned the ta
bles on Herman airmen w ho had been i
bombing their airdrome is related by
Lieutenant \V A. Barnes of the Royal
air force.
"We had been giving the Hun a
lively time," the officer says, "bomb
ing his dumps, his billets, communi-j
cations and towns nightly When, I
therefore, he bombed our aerdrotne’
two evenings in succession and com-!
pletely, upset all our arrangements,
it was generally tjgreed that he had
scored one over us. Much as his en
terprise was admired, however, it was
decided to try to check it.
The |ilan evolved was simple. The
next day the British machines were
flow it over to a neighboring aerdrotne,
j w here it was believed they would be
safe from raids Then they started
off just after dusk to tflake a reprisal
attack.
“We arrived at the enemy's lair,"
Lieutenant Barnes narrates, "at a
most opportune moment, for a second
relay of his machines were just 'taxv
ing' across the ground to ‘take off’ in
the flare path In our wildest dreams
we had not hoped for such luck as
this, and every possible advantage
was taken of it
“A few well-directed bombs, I
dropped right in among the machines '
that were awaiting their turn to takej
off, set fire to two and badly damaged j
others. Another machine was seen
to crash w hilst actually taking off in I
the flare path Some equally well-1
directed Incendiary bombs set fire to.
la large shed, and then the real fun j
i of the night began.
"By this time the first relay of I
enemy machines, sent, as we after
wards learned, to bomb our own aer
j odrome again, began to return. As j
! tfiey were on their own side of the
line, and In blissful ignorance of the
j fate of their aerodrome, they were
| dying with navigation lights full on.!
thereby giving their position away in [
the darkness.
"Relieved of our bombs, we were
able to give fight, and successfully
shot down one in flames, while an
other was distinctly seen to crash on
top of a wood.
"Having thus paid our debts in full,
we left the remainder to land on a
bomb-riddled aerodrome no enviable
task at night—while we went off home
! to celebrate a good night's work, with
the comforting assurance that the R.
A. K were at least 'one up’ on their
adversaries' game."

CAM I1 KEARNY. San Diego, Gal.,
Aug. 2. 'Tm fighting for liberty, anil]
if my brother hasn't got sense enough]
to be fighting with me, I guess I'd
have to kill him."
So said a native of Austria, a sol
dier in the Fortieth division, natural
ized at a special session of court here
recently. He was answering a hypo
thetical question put by A E Kld
redge, naturalization examiner, as to
what he would do if he met his
brother, an Austrian soldier, in battle.
When the Austrian and German
groups of alien soldiers came before
the court, searching questions, differ
ent from those put to other aliens,]
were asked them. A typical set, with |
the answers, follows:
"You were horn in Germany?"
"Yes.”
"Got any relatives in the German
army?”
"Three brothers.”
"If you were fighting in the Ameri
can army and met those brothers face
to face, what would you do?"
“I guess I'd have to kill them.”
One man, who said he had three;
brothers serving in the Austrian army, j
hesitated long at the last question, j
After a few moments Mr. Eidredge
said, “I guess we'll have to eliminate
this man."
The presiding Judge intervened "If
he really thinks he can do his duty In •
battle as an American citizen, even
If he meets those brothers, he can
be naturalized." he said.
"1 will do lt',‘ said the»inan. He]
was naturalized.

SALT LAKE CITY, Aug. L—M
Bailey, secretary of the federal fuel
administration in Utah, haR just de
clared that coal rationing in this city
will not be necessary during the com
ing winter. The statement is based
upon the fact that the Sale Lake citi
zens have heeded the warnings of the
fuel administration and prepared for
possible coal shortages by laying in
their supply during the summer, when
fuel is obtainable Other Utah com
inanities have followed the example
of Salt Lake, according to Mr. liaifey.
who says that in Utah practically 75
per cent of the homes have stored
sufficient coal to meet any winter
shortage
