In a quiet way, the International 4 through its European Committée, agencies, is doing a great deal ameliorate the condition of Yankee The work, of course, is subject to drastic restrictions by the German Govern- ment and is not nearly so extensive prisoners of war in Germany. as the committee would like to make it. Still some‘concessions have been secured from the central powers. Since: the United States entered the war, Americans have not been exactly popular in Germany. There was a big Yankee Y. M. C.

Most of them came out with Am- bassador James W.

By HAROLD EDWIN BECHT! HTOL (European Manager of Newspaper Enterprise Associati London, Sept. 20.—Up in Belgium and northern France, the German air- men can’t be coaxed west of their own ‘ lines in daytime. They simply WON'T COME OVER, on the allies’ side! Day after day, as surely as the sune rises, the allied airmen miles and miles into Germany in broad daylight | to see what the Germans are doing! and to bomb military objectives. But the only times the HUN tries to “egme back” is at night, and he's growing more timid about those night raids each week. Aside from the score of machines; shot down, which is constantly sliding | more and more in the allies’ favor; these facts show how the war in the/| air is going. 4 British and American aviators who have come recently from the northern } end of the. line tell the same story. One of them, Lieutenant W. J. Arm- strong of Philadelphia, gave this as an illustration: } “I was one of seven American fliers scouting over Lille just a few days ago. Germans ‘Flee From Seven “We ran into a bunch’ of 30 Ger=/ man planes. And we didn’t get a chance to put in a single good shot!
