AIM'LAINS' NATIONALITY IDENTIFIED IIY DESIGNS All the allies use a cocard of slml lar design to Identify their planes and prevent the airmen from mistaking friend from foe in battio. With th reproductlns; of tnauy photographs f.-oni the various fronts it Is hard for the roader to distinguishes the planea cf the nations fighting the Germans The accompanying Illustrations wUI give tho reader the photograph Ic values of these cocards, as near as It is possible to show them In black and white, and are reproduced frorj Motor Age. Tho planes of the ccn trul powers use tho black cross, the Maltese type having been Employed since tho start of the aerial warfare and are eary to distinguish. It lias i.een reported that In the future the central pow,Ys will use the square i,-ei:s Instead of tho Maltese, but only a few war pictures have shown the new design. One reason for this change Is said to be the similarity of tho Insignia of the Red Cross, which Is respected by the allied aviators In photographs of tho American l.lar.es that have been published the cocard of tho United States often shows a white star In th? center. This type of cocard has beea us?d for the Ira'nlng planes In this country, but was abandoned for fighting planes n-cause at a distance It could be con ft;Ecd with the Malteso cross. The photograph? of fighting planes from the front all bear the three concen Irl? circles, tho various allied nations using different color schemes i f olo-s have a very awkward way of looking quite different when pho tographed in black and white. Blue for Instance, Is almost white, while rcc' uppcars almost black and yellow very dark also.

STATE RANK OF ASHLAXP ,)le for anyone but an expert to dls- tinsulsh between photographs of 'the United States mark and that of France. Tho marks of France and ! Italy are even morealike, both having the red outer circle and white mid Hi -i,,,, V ', , .. ., , , . , Our planes can be distinguished In war photographs by watching for tho lark outer circle of black, this being red In the design, and the light cen ter of white, with the slightly dark er circle of blue between the center and the outer circle. While the outer circles of the United States and France are alike, there Is a slight difference ln the in ner two, the United States Having tne white spot and France the white In ner circle. Between France and Italy the dis tinction Is more difficult. The outer circles are Identical, but the Itallau center spot Is quite dark, while the French Is barely a spot at all. Eng land and Belgium are qulto distinct. England Is the only one having a very dark center and very light outer ilrcles, and Belgium is merely a dark si.ir.dge, with absolute black center, the yellow and red circles blending The3J cocards should not be con fused with the Individual squadron Inclgula rlaced under the lower vings, on top of the upper wlngi and on the side of the fuselage so i.hnt each fighting, plane may be quickly ldentifbd while In the air. The planes of the United States army also have the national colors painted on the vertical stabilizer and rudder to further aid In Identification. However, almost every fighting plane of which a closeup view Is ob tained shows some other design us ually placed on the side of the fuse lage. The Fi-ench started this sys cm of squadron Identification and have used almost every kind of anl-n-al. Four photographs of Spad fighters snow that at least four squadrons 1 tve used the stork by painting the bird In different positions. Dogs, eats, monkeys, geese and geisha girls have also been used by tho leuding squadrons. One squadron of the Per shing expeditionary forces has used Uncle Sem's hat, painted ln national colors in a ring of black. The German fighters distinguish their squadrons by painting the planes in guady colors. One of the Host prominent of these was the 'circus" or command of the late Von Klchthofen. Ills planes were paint ed In the gaudiest of colors, using rod more than any other. For this reason photographs of his planes when captured showed up almost solid black in the photo. Detroit News.

VMEIHCA STARVING, Itl'SSIANS ARE TOLD The lack af reliable Information in Finland nnd Sweedcn concerning internal affairs ln Russia amazed the American and Italian refugees who iir.ve Just arrived from Russia. They were likewise much surprised to find Finland and bweuen In such a nor mal condition. The Bolshevik and Gorman news papers and propagandists have the field all to themselves In supplying Russia with Information. Russia is iiivcn little foreign news except that which Indicates tho weakness on the part of the entente powers and tho strength of tho central jempl'res. The government now actually prints the few Journals still appear ing In Petrogard and Moscow. Tho Associated Press correspon dent at Moscow, who left Russia with the recently arrived party ii:id is fi'lng his dispatch, can testify that ho Americans remaining In Russia were treated to many announcec- monts that tho Indians were oppos- ne conscription over all Amerlr a and that the United States was again In the throe3 of on Indian war. The eople of the United States also were described of starving for the lack of Mich commodities as sugar nnd flour and general prediclons were mad hat the allied activities on the west ern and Italian fronts would fall be cause the United States and Canada ould not furnish the neccesary bread. Such stories were so redlculous that they gained no credence among the educated foreigners. Nelthed did tli'ey believe the wild reports of wholesale starvation In England, where persons were pictured as fall ins dead from hunger. Germany nnd Austria aro denounc ed as fiercely as the entente by" the Polshevlk press, whose aim Is to rr-ato the Impression that all the world Is starving and demanding a froletarlat government similar to that existing in Russia. Japan, China and Slam are represented as undergo- ng widespread revolution. Instead of there being a demand for a Bolshevik regime ln: Finland, as the Soviet papers represent, nine- tenths of the Finns hold up their nnds In horror when Bolshevism is mentioned. The Bolshevik Idea is equally for bidding to tho great majority of the Sv edes, who are paying no attention to the violent propaganda of the Bol shevik! agents in Stockholm. irand Officer Represents State George W.
