SPRINGFIELD, Mo., July 30. The cases of seven persons charsed with kidnaping conspiracies and brought here from St. l.oui and Stockton, Missouri, have been set for trial on the second Monday in September in the Webster county court at Marnh flald. Missouri. Tho prisoners were brought here for request for a change of venue which was granted. Congress lias appropriated $040,000,000 for an airship program, and America will shortly lead the world in air shijis. Many thousands of young aviators are in training at the various aii'shijt bases. We have successfully floated a two billion dollar pojm lar loan and have advanced our allies $1.37.j,IXXJ,UO0 -for sujijilies lmught in America. We have raised $100,000,000 fur lfed ( 'loss work. We have established an embargo nj'oii shijimrnts to neutrals and hope soon to have under way the building of an immense fleet of merchantmen. For a peaeedoving and peaeeable nation, we have made a good start, an augury of what this country is capable of d'ling when it shakes off its lethargy and uses its full strength and power in the jirosecution of the war when it filially makes war its main business. We are an impa tient people and seek to have things done in a hurry and would succe'ed were it not for the kaiser's friends in the senate, fighting successfully for delay.

The editor of the Polish Review, published in Lon don, has received from A. R. D. Let- infky, chairman of the committee ap pointed by thte Russian provisional government to settle affair in Poland, a telegram saying that the govern ment has granted amnesty to Polish prisoners of war who are Russian sub jects and who fought against Russia in thte Polish legions and that they will not be treated as rebels. All Polish civilian prisoners. In cluding Prussian and Austrian sub jects, will he treated as subjects of foreign states which are not at war with Russia and they will recover personal and property rights. The telegram also gives details of various privileges granted Polish war pris oners. Camp Kelly, South San Antonio, Tens, tJd Areo Squadron V. S. Army. To the Kditor: Having lived in Medford for about six years. I wish to write you a few lints about the aviation camp here. We have the largest aviation camp In the world here, consisting of 45 squadrons of 10 4 men in each squad ron, i They have been sendine men away. About eight squadrons left for across the water and others for Dayton and Detroit. You first reach Camp Kelly by car line from San Antonio and then by auto. Reaching the field you see l.0 machines all in a square in hangars, some of them the latest Curtis models. Also a French war plane. They have a French captain here instructing men. You see eight or ten men in the air all doing loop the loop and tail slide and all the fancy flying. Mr. Stentson, a civilian, one of the coun try's greatest fliers, was an instructor but has left for somewhere, we do not know where. Tomorrow they are going to take the war plane for the first time. People ought to be here at mesl time and see the way they feed 6000 men. It would be someth'ag they won't see in a lifetime. Imagine 6500 men here, and the way they take care of them. Three doctors for the crowd. Few men have the mumps and measles and they send them to quarantine and others have the tonsilitis and they send them to the hospitals. July 4 they had the worst storm they ever had, wind blowing fifty miles an hourand rain coming down in buckets full. Men running around yelling and laughing and swimming around. They have some storms In Texas. When boys write home and tell of all their experiences of putting ma chines together, yon ought to see the other side. Here they are learning to be America's greatest aviators and ex pect to go to France. But they are called fp the morning and each has a pick and shovel and is put to digging ditches and sewers. A sight you'd give a million to see. Some men who never had a pick or IENINE MISSI I'K.THonii.U). Jtilv 2fi.
