All the allies use a cocard of slml

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

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 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

have used almost every kind of anl-n-al.

snow that at least four squadrons

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

Developments Made
At Gold Hill Mines
.)
Much progress Is being made on
the Improvement of the property of
the Gold Hill Mining association lo
cated on tho Rogue river, three miles
northeast of Gold Hill. A 10-stamp
mill Is under courso of erection at
the mine at a cost of over $0,000.
Thb prospects were so promising
about this mine that the association
feel Justified lu spending consider
able outlay on the plant.
It Is claimed that the mineral de
velopment of Jackson county, one of
the oldest placer locations on the Pa
citlc coast, lias Just begun.
Officers of the Gold Hill Mining
association are Judge W. E. Crews,
of idford, and J. G. Davles, of Sac
ramento, engineer and trustee.

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.
