Thaw Oregon Loggers Lafayette" Airman Writes of Im portance of Spruce Production. PORTLAND. Ore.. May 24 (By nited Press Staff Correspondent) mencan heros flying in the clouds ibove France, who have helped the "rench and British birdmen to wrest nasterv of the air away from the Hun, know that the logger and lum berman of the Northwest are the jackbone of the air service. Writintr as to personal friends . uddies Maior William Thaw, one oi America's most famous airmen, ad- iressed a letter to the patriotic log- oro nnrl lumViprmpn. His lnt.tflr. lfll- 'ne thrilling incidents of the fight ng life, and addressed to the members if the Loyal Legion of Loggers and jumbermen, was made public hero to lay by Colonel Disque, commanded of he Spruce Uivision ot tne u. to, Signal corps. It follows in full: "Headauarters 103rd Aero Pursuit Squadron (Lafayette Escadrille) Mar. 27th, 1918. "To members of the Loyal Legion if Loggers and Lumbermen, Portland. Oregon, U. S. A. , "Gentlemen: Having received an .ccount of the splendid work which is now being done by the Loyal Legion jf Loggers and Lumbermen to turtner he speedy completion or America s rreatest aerial program, it occured to ne that you might like' to have a word from an American air squadron ictuallv in service at the front, and it is for this reason that I am writ ing to you. "Our work here is so closely con ected with your own and so entirely dependent upon it for results that I 'eel it my duty to do the little I can, it this distance, to further the more intimate iclationship between our ranche of service and yours. "It is encouraging to us, and to all other American aviators, I am sure, o know that such an organization as your3 exists. Wo belong to one of America's first fighting squadrons re in a position to know from actual experience how essential tne pro duction oi airplane material is. "This is particularly true of spruce which you are cutting in the forests of the Northwest. You are far from the firing line. It would not bo strange if, at times, you were to lose ight ot the vital importance ot your labor. Let me urge you, gentlemen, everto fortret it for a moment. The vastage of aeroplanes at the front nd in training camps is enormous. This is necessarily so. Yesterday, for example, one of our planes was totally wrecked in a bad crash due o a defective motor. "Last week two pilots belonging to this combat group were killed in a collision at 12000 feet. A day or two before that four pilots were brought down in combat. And so it goes from day to day. "Unless we have new aeroplanes with which immediately to replace osses. we are very seriously handi capped in the work of fighting our enemies. Odd us it may seem the loss of a machine is as serious as the loss of a pilot, for men can be re placed more easily than planes. "I think it may truthfully bo said that we are doing our part in the work of making aviation more costly to the enemy than he makes it for us. We have destroyed a good many of his aircrafts and we hope to con tinue doing so. "But there is an important fact to remember. As conditions are now the Germans are making tremendous efforts to mako good their wastage in aeroplanes and the battle for aerial supremacy thus far is almost a draw one. It is nip and tuck and will be until American's aero squadrons, trained and fully equipped, are ready lo-take the field in force. "It appears almost certain now that victory in this war will be decided in the air. "I wish that some of your repre sentatives, the men who actually cut the spruce which we use in our aero Planes, could visit inn western iiorn.. i wlcti tVint thnv mipbt visit us here at our barracks and see the actual j "onditions unuer wnicn we are worn- ing. ' . , "If ever any of you do come, you will be sure of a right royal welcome, and you will go back to your worl in America with a convinction that your job is as fully important as our own. We have long realized this, therefore, wo wish your organization all success. 1 and we hope that every logger and lurhberman in America may be urged to join it if he has not already done so. "Very truly yours I (Signed) W. Thaw, Major A. S. S. C. U.S. R. "Commanding Officer 103rd Aero Pursuit Squadron, S. C."
