British Foresee aircraft
Supreme in Future Wars
LONDON, May 6.—Airplanes to
transport troops long distances in
great numbers are foreshadowed in
a book, "The Royal Air Force as a
Career,” issued recently by the Brit
ish Air Ministry. Development of
aircraft, it is set forth, points to the
coming of machines much larger
than those now in use to be driven
by two or more high powered en
gines and which will be capable of
performing very long flights.
In these machines, it is stated, it
will be feasible to transport soldiers,
fighting equipment or bombs great
distances at speeds considerably
greater than 100 miles per hour.
Large flying boats, designed to re
main at sea several days at a time,
and other machines for use in coop
eration with the navy, are among the
interesting developments predicted.
Other craft mentioned are gun
spotting planes for the wireless di
rection of fleet gunfire, torpedo car
riers and new fighting scouts, all of
which are planned to be able to fly
off and alight upon decks of ships
of which they are units.

COMMERCIAL AGENT
IN GERMANY HELPS
AMERICAN BUSINESS
BERLIN, May 6.—The United
States department of commerce is tak
ing an active part in promoting sales
of American products in German.
Much of the energy of the Ameri
can commercial attache and of his
staff of five American trade com
missioners is devoted to helping to
handle the important commodities
which American exporters now are
sending to the German market.
The commercial attache is especial
ly helpful in obtaining import licen
ses for American dealers. For ex
ample, in the last few months li
censes have been issued through his
office for $40,000 worth of machin
ery, manufactured by one American
company. Through the efforts of
his office, the annual quota of safe
ty razor blades, allowed to be brot
into Germany by a certain Ameri
can firm, was raised from 60,000 to
100,000 dozen. Other articles, on
which the attache was instrumental
recently in obtaining the import li
cense, include several pairs of rub
ber shoes, 1,200 gross of steel pens,
several laundry printing machines,
50 binders, a large number of trac
tors, some 75 adding and calculat
ing machines, and a large number of
automobiles.
The commercial attache’s office also
aims to help firms which desire to
establish branch offices in Germany,
either for warehousing, manufactur
ing, assembling, or wholesaling their
products. In some cases, on the ba
sis of information on hand in the at
tache’s office, such firms have been
advised to postpone their operation;
in others, they have been encouraged
and assisted in carrying out their
plans.
In the past year, a large number
of agents have been secured to repre
sent American firms. Hundreds of
such connections are being arranged
all the time through the services of
the American commercial attache.
Complete American Home
to Be Shipped to France
(By Associated Press)
NEW YORK, May 6.—A model
American home of ten rooms and
three baths, built and completly fur
nished in New York, will be ship
ped to France and set up in the
Grand Palais at Paris as a part of
the American section of the interna
tional exhibition of household and
labor saving devices, October 22 to
November 15, it was announced here
recently by Arthur Williams, vice
president of The New York Edison
company, who has been chosen pres
ident of the American Section of the
Exhibition. The house will be an
American gift to the French depart
ment of public instruction under
whose auspices the exhibition will be
held.
The decision to send a model Am
erican home to Paris was made as a
result of the report of Albert Broi
sat, general commissioner of the Na
tional Office of Industrial Research
and Inventions, that French women
have heard so much of the comforts
of American homes, particularly of
the modern American kitchen and
laundry, they are beginning to de
mand American house furnishings,
household appliances, and labor sav
ing devices. The constant compari
son of the heating, plumbing, and
lighting facilities of French homes
and hotels with those of America on
the part of tourists and American
residents in France, Mr. Broisat said,
also has induced a strong demand
for American household equipment
among the hotel proprietors and
apartment owners of France who
hope to induce American visitors
to stay long and perhaps become
permanent residents of France.

GERMAN WHO SHOT
WOUNDER MAN OUT
OF Pin, ACQUITTED
POSEN, May 6.—Heintz Muehl
nickel, a German aviator, recently
was acquitted in criminal court of a
charge of murder which grew out of
the fact that he killed a wounded
Russian out of pity. After the World
war Muehlnickel enlisted in the Pol
ish army, and during the Polish-Rus
sian conflict of 1920 a defective mo
tor compelled him to land midway
between the opposing lines.
Muehlnickel came' upon a mortally
wounded Russian, one of whose legs
had been torn away. There was an
other ghastly wound in his side. The
man, an agent of the Communists
stationed with the Red army, im
plored the aviator to shoot him and
put him out of his misery.
At first Muehlnickel refused, but
finally unable to bear the sight of
the suffering man and fearful that
his yells wrould reveal his own
whereabouts to the enemy, he shot
him. The next day he buried the
man and reported the occurence to
his superior officers.
Stove, oven, refrigerator and cook
ing utensils are included in a com
pact all-metal outfit which may be
carried on the running board of an
automobile.
