The air vice marshal of Brit ain says future wars will be fought, in the upper limits of the earth's atmosphere, with a ferocity that would wipe out all the fi.'htiiis ships that Britain has now, in the first few en liasiemeiits. It would be impossible, says Britain's air marshal, to pre vent enemy raiders from pene trat.ina Britain's defenses. He suggests "we should be ready to give our opponents a larger dose out of the same bottle," inclining that Britain should be ready with fleets to destroy the cities of any nation sending air ships against the British.

CHICAGO, May 9. (P False friends, not open foes, were desig nated' turiiiy hi a new polico theory aH the executioners of the three .Sicilian gangsters, Scalisi, AiiHelml and O uinta at Hammond.. Ind., yesterday. On wha theory .was based officers were secretive. It ap peared, however, that they might he. in possession of definite infor mation, because the reconstruction of the crime was in detail, even to the number of persons who took part in the triple slaying. The slaying of John Scalisi, Al bert Anselml and Joseph G uinta, according to the new conjecture, followed a friendly gathering of the trio with four friends at a roadhouse In Indiana near the Illinois line. The seven had pa (h- cred to seek a peaceful settlement , ,)e contemplatinir fillnK suit in of difficulties arising out of tho fo(lel.aI court aitaekins the county fiKlit for the control of booze arid i i,u,jgef vice profits. 1 The timhermcn appeared before There was a table laden with j the board of equalization Inst fall food when the seven met by pre-, llnd !, f,. 2S )el. cent reduc arrangement. J'hey kissed each tlon )n tax0H. They indicated they other and appeared to be on most wou(1 rofUSQ to pay their taxes friendly terms.

'The bodies of Clulnta and An selml were loaded into a coupe narked outside. Scalsl's body was taken In the larger car of the killers. By carting the Doilies to the little used road In Hammond, and abandoning them there, tho executioners were able to protect the keeper of the roadhouse where the killings occurred, nnd also were the better able to cover their own trail. There were several factors, po lice said, lending weight to mo theory. They pointed out that tho I killing of Scalisi and Anselml, the j Damon and l'ythlas among Chl-j cngo gunmen, would have been virtually Impossible except for per sons having their confidence. These two, as well as Gulnta, were constantly alert to the danger of assassination and took elaborate precautions against it. It seemed to police to be most unlikely that ihe three could have been lured into Indiana tinder any pretext by nnynne having connections with. a hostile gang. If this theory lie accepted, the previous belief that the killings were to avenge tnc massueiu seven uanpstcrs herein February would have to be abandoned. 1 Baseball Scores National. nttshurB New York R. 11. 11 K. .... 4 .... 3 7 0 and llnr Fltzsimmons, Batteries: Grimes (treaves, Hemsley; Mays and lloRan.
