There are three aspects to the
revolution, according to the speaker.
These uro the aoclul, political und
economic phases, which have been
undergoing a change for the past
few years, or that period following
the world war.
In taking up tho social aspect of
the revolution, Key. Hart pointed out
that there are three well defined
clasHCB. These are the arlstocrucy,
composed of the nobility, profes­
sional men, and the army and navy
officers who hnve made up the rul­
ing class; the middle cluss, composed
of the tradespeople, and tho labor­
ing class, made up of the workers of
the country, these constituting more
than a half of the total population of
the nation. The aristocracy has been
the ruling clans. The revolution is
one of the masses against this ele­
ment. There Is a feeling that
amounts almost to hatred between
the workers and the upper class.
Every improvement which has
come to the laboring classes, has
come only with the bitterest opposi­
tion from the ruling clnsxes. Dur­
ing the war In which England has
been engaged she has called upon
the lower classes for their support
until now the laboring element has
begun to realize Its own power, and
labor is ruling today. Tho labor
element Is composed of some 20.-

$1,999,009 damages against her stepson,
W. E. D. Stokes, Jr., son of W. E. D.

St. Louis, Sept. 21.—(A. IP.)—
The Barling bomber, superairplane
of the United States army, whose
initial flight at Wilbur Wright field,
Dayton, Ohio, attracted wide atten­
tion, will be on exhibition at the In­
ternational Air raees to be held here
October 1-3.
General Mason M. Patrick, chief
of the Army Air service, has prom­
ised that the plane, which is the
most powerful in the world, will fly
to St. Louis for the air meet and
aeronautical exposition. It is plan­
ned to have daily exhibition flights.
More than 200 airmen are expect­
ed to participate in the races. Italy,
France. Canada and Mexico will be
represented, and efforts have been
made to induce other foreign fliers
to enter. The cash prizes and troph­
ies. respectively $13,000 and eight
cups, will be awarded the evening of
October 3.
The third National Aero Congress
will be held in connection with the
races and secretaries Weeks, Denby
and Hoover, postmaster General
New and General Pershing are ex­
pected to deliver addresses.
In an effort to retrieve its laurels,
the navy has nominated only Its
speediest craft and most experienced
fliers, and will have two new pianos
entered which are expected to de­
velop a speed of 250 miles an hour,
it is asserted.
General Patrick has advised tho
committee that among the army en­
tries will be the two Curtiss racers
and the Vervllle Sperry, which were
in last year’s races at Detroit.
Mrs. Bertha Dnle Horchem of
Ransom, Kansas, who recently set a
new altitude record of 16,300 feet
for women, was one of the first for­
mally to announce her entry. Sbe
will compete in the "On-to-St. Louis
Race,” an event for civilians who
will fly their planes here from var­
ious parts of the country.
The principal event of the meet
will bo the Pulitzer Trophy race, In
which fliers will contest for $4,000
in cash prizes and a trophy, which is
the emblem of superiority in the air
so far as speed is concerned.
The
trophy now is held by Lieut. Russel
Maughan of the U. S, Army.
