THURSDAY, AUG. 30. 1917 TRAVEL 11Y AIR The feat of Captain Laureami, an Italian aviator, in flying from Turin to Naples and return, a distance of 020 miles without stopping, soon wili be a common occurrence, though lo date this is a new world's record. "Already European countries, in eluding Great Britain and Germany, are preparing for air transportation immediately after the close of the war and both countries have ltmer aries market out. Owing to nu meroua naval bases, England will be able to provide landings on her own territory from Liverpool to Calcutta, and the trip may be made in less than three days of actual flying. Mails certainly will bo carried by airplane. In time passengers will be carried across the Atlantic and it is csti mated that the trip can be made in 16 hours. Those airplanes which now carry bombs will carry more gasoline after the war. Experts seo no difficulty ahead so far as negotia ting great distances is concerned, but there will have to be an international agreement over the control of air routes. Hickory people will read in a few years of air flights from one end of the earth to the other. , One of the most sensible articles on the anti-draft meeting at Lincoln ton "was a communication in the Times of that city by Mr. L. B. West more, who made the point that the people were not to be blamed so much for their action. Foolish men, posing as leaders, but in reality the worst foes of the people, are responsible for disloyal gatherings. Some of these fellows are in a class with Wiilhelm Stein, Kerr Hardwick, Ilerr Vardaman, Ilerr Ilohenzollern and others except that these gents have more sense. THE PRESIDENT STANDS FIRM Columbia State. In his Tpnlv to the overtures lor r,aart hv Pone Benedict XV. Presi dent Wilson draws again and with a stronger line the distinction De tween the German people and the Im perial German government. Germany can have peace with the American people when the Germans are reaay to treat with them but the American people will not now negotiate with William II and the official ana mili tary group around him, because thei Amprirnn neonle hold them to be cheat, perpurers, unworthy of be lief, confessedly unmoral and not re sponsible to the German people. A contract with the German govern ment as it is now constituted would be valueless because it could be an nulled at its own will, without the consent of the Germans or of the United tSates, at any time when "military necessity" seemed to re quire it. A pact between the IIo henzollems and the United States would have even less binding force than had the "scrap of paper" that pledged the" security of Belgium. The president has made the reply to his holiness that in purport might have been expected and while seem ingly it does not bring the day of peace nearer, it may serve that pur pose by drilling into the minds of the people of Germany that peace is in their hands when they shall stretch them forth and grasp it. It puts Germany and the rest of the world on notice that the United States, having entered the war de liberately, will not be deflected from the purposes by which it was moved or deterred from pressing them by appeals which, however worthy, are sentimental rather than practical. The president reminds the German people through the pope that the United States seeks no reprisals, that it is willing to forget its in juries, indeed, to forgive them, when ever the Germans shall be prepared to pledge themselves against .acts of injustice and atrocity in future. If the German people shall consent to perpetual abdication of their rights as men in favor of the Hohen zollerns, they have no warrant in coveting a peace which the Hohen zollerns are incompetent to guaran tee. SOFT PEDAL ON BAD NEWS Columbia State. The semi-official Cologne Gazette is beginning to prepare its readers to receive the news that the American army in France is not a boast but the beginning of a bitter reality. Hereto fore the official tone toward Ameri ca has been a sneering pretense of ut ter disregard. Now the leading pa per of the Rhine country tells its readers that it is true, that not only have American troops been acclaimed in London and Paris but that the Un ited States, is busy raising a large ar my and preparing for vast fleets for uso on the water and in the air. II explains that America is actuated by three motives: desire to reap a commercial harvest in England and France after the war, fear lest it lose its money loaned the allies, and am bition for military glory. This lat ter ambition the Cologne Gazette pretends is not aimed at Germany, for though it must acknowledge that the new army is a reality and the preparations genuine, it adds to com fort its readers that the arifies will never reach Europe, indeed will nev er be really got into shape for em barkation, for the entente, it says, will have to cave in before the year is out. The next move is to an nounce that a large army is in France but can not fight. It seems a poor sort of tactics, but the German gov ernment eidently believes you can fool most of the people all the time.

Representative Parker, of New Jersey, cast the only vote against reporting the measure. He was op posed to the optional insurance fea ture, expressing the view, advanced by the private insurance companies that it would cost a tremendous sum of money and could not be adminis tered fairly. The principal change made in trio bill by the committee was the re duction of the maximum amount of optional insurance a man may take from $10,000 to $5,000. Another amendment adopted provides that the allowance of a widow shall au tomatically cease upon remarriag. Originally the allowance would have continued for two years after the death of the husband. Chairman Adamson said last night the bill would be reported today. He is confident of passage in the house but anticipates strenuous oppn sition from the insurance compan ies and from the pension committees of both houses. The bill would provide allowances for dependents of men in the service compensation for death and disabil ity; optional insujrance for officers and enlister men, and educational and vocational training for honor ably discharged men. Administra tion costs for the first and second year of the war are estimated at $176,000,000 and $380,000,00o respectively. AUSTRIANS DESERT STRONG POSITIONS TO ITALY Copenhagen, Aug. 30. According to the Cologne Gazette's correspon dent on the Isonzo front, Monte San Gabriele has been partly taken by the Italians. The Austrians, adds the correspondent, are deserting this strong point.: GUESTS ARE INVITED TO LEAVE RESORT By the Associated Press. Stockholm, Aug. 30. The spec tacle, probably unique, of a popular and much freauented summer rtsnrt. and bathing town inviting its sum mer guests to leave and not return has just been presented bv Sodertalip. The city authorities took action after a meeting at which the scarcity of fowl was discussed, which in their op inion, made it undesirable that in roads should be made by summer vis itors on the stocks available. Some 13,000 visitors are effected by the in- vuauon to leave. Hickory is putting across quite a bit of street work just now, and indications are that it will be as good as the best. The allies could not want for a better spokesman than President Wilson, who now speaks for all fiee men. iGumahoe Bill Stone admitted thtt it was a strong note, but he and the kaiser expected it. The closer one studies the prosi dent's answer to the pope, the more is found in it. The best company in North Caro lina will be in Greenville this af ternoon. Those who have been to the Greenville camp say it is ideal in every respect.
