WEDNESDAY EVENING,
Halil Pasha, Former
Turk Marine Commander,
Flees to Asia Minor
liy Associated Press.
Constantinople, Aug. 13. Halil
I Pasha, former Minister of Marine,
| and uncle to Enver Pasha, former
j Minister of War, has escaped to
J Asia Minor with Kritchclk Talaat,
| another leader of the committee of
Union and Progress. It is believed
he will join Mustapha Kiami! Pasha
in Erzcrum.
Halil Pasha was made Minister
of tile Turkish Navy in 1913, and
held offiocj during most of the period
of the great war. A Constantinople
dispatch announced that he had died
hut this news was never confirmed.
Mustapha Kiamil Pasha, former
Grand Vizier, Foreign Minister and
President of the G6uneil of State,
was in command of Turkish troops
in the Lake Van region in 1916, and
was defeated by the Russians, re
treating to Erzerum. He was later
arrested, being' charged with re
sponsibility for massacres of Greeks
in Asia Minor. Early this year his
forces at Erzerum were reported to
lie concentrating for an attack on
the Allies.
A Paris dispatch on July 7 stated
that Mustapha Kiamil Pasha and
Essad Pasha might attempt the
formation of a separate Turkish
government. On August 4 advices
from Constantinople reported that
the Turkish cabinet has ordered the
arrest of Mustapha Kiamil Pasha
and Reuf Bey, on the eharge of con
voking a separate congress and or
ganizing armed hands in the Smvrna
and Erzerum districts.

in the rural districts, all but six of

lower end of the county have been

Air Mission Believes
Victory in Any Future
War Depends on Planes
By Associated Press.
Washington, Aug. 13.—Belief that
future war will open with great aerial
activity and that victory will incline
to that belligerent able first to achieve
and maintain its supremacy in the
air was expressed by the special
American aviation mission which has
just submitted its report recommend
ing concentration of air activities in
this country, civilian, naval and mil
itary, under the direction of a new
department whose head will hold a
place in the President's Cabinet. The
mission, headed by Assistant Secre
tary of War Croweil and composed of
some of the nation's leading aircraft
development experts, has been study
ing the subject in Europe in conjunc
tion with the experts of the principal
powers there, and its views were
based on information secured in
months of study.
Secretary Baker late yesterday
made public and at the same time an
nounced he had disapproved the rec
ommendation for the creation of a
department of aviation. He expressed
the opinion the mission had "gone too
far in suggesting a single centralized
air service."

WOULD PREPARE
FOR WAR DESPITE
NATION'S LEAGUE
JcJlicoc Indicates His Policy
While Visiting In
Australia
Sydney, Australia, Xug. 13. Ad
miral Viscount Jellicoe preached a
policy of preparation for war in some
of the speeches he has delivered here
while visiting: Australia to inform
the Australian government concern
ing matters of naval policy.
"When discussions taKe place on
such subjects as the league of Na
tions or the question of limitation of
armaments, 1 trust it will never be
forgotten that the existence of the
British Umpire depends absolutely
upon the safety of its sea communi
cations," said Viscount Jellicoe at
Sydney, where he addressed the Navy
League. Before the war, he said.
Great Britain suffered from a lack
of sufficient ships to guard the long
lines of communication between Lon
don and Australia and, he added, "it
is up to the British Empire to see
that we are never in want of suffi
cient policemen afloat in the future."
Speaking of the "deadly risks run
in the last five years." the Admiral
said, "one can only hope that in the
future sufficient provisions will be
made both by the mother country and
by the oversea dominions to insure
the impossibility of defeat of the
British navy."
After giving some information to
show how long it took Great Brit
ain to prepare for Germany's sub
. arine campaign, Viscount Jellicoe
said: "The lesson I am trying to
preach is preparation for war. 1
would like to say very seriously that
it seems to me the conclusion is forc
ed upon us that the British Empire
depends now more than ever upon
naval supremacy."
Leaving Sydney early in July, the
Admiral started on a month's tour to
northern Australian ports and of .he
coast of New Guinea and adjacent
islands.

FOR PROBE OF
LIVING PRICES
Additional Funds Arc Neces
sary" For Continuation of
High Cost Investigation
By Associated Press.
Washington, Aug. 13.—Additional
funds to continue the investigation
into the high cost of living are nec
essary if the work is to continue

living costs, set forth in his letter
that the commission proposed to
conduOt further investigations as to
the production, storage and distri
bution of foodstuffs with the aim of
arriving at figures on the real cos'.,
wholesalo and sctail prices.
So far as known, the President
has not directed any additional in
vestigations but bills now are pend
ing in the House for inquiries into
the sugar and shoe industries.

Trade Commission chairman reach
ed the House at the close of a day
during which both branches of Con
gress gave much atention to the cost

$175,000 was asked for the secret
service by Secretary Glass who asked
that in authorizing the appropriation
a clause be inserted to permit the
use of the service operatives in run
ning down food hoarders and profit
eers.
Hoarding and profiteering were

ed in the House. A bill by Repre

years' imprisonment for hoarding,
profiteering or monopolizing the pro
duction of foodstuffs, fuel or cloth
ing.
Representative Kel'er, Independ
ent Republican, introduced a bill to
authorize creation of a national
beard of conservation headed by the
Pi esident.

Ohio, discussing the high cost of
living in the House, declared that
government wastefulness during the
war and at present in continuing
many war-created agencies largely
was responsible for the existing sit
uation.
