GREAT AERIAL FIGHT
IN WESTERN ARENA
Extraordinary Activity Taken
&s Prelude to General Ad
vance of Allied Armies in
France and Belgium.
American Army Should Be Sent to
Russia, Says General Yassukovich
(AuofUtfd Ttf War SumnuuT.)
Whatever military development may
be impending on the Belgian front,
the artillery battle there has not yet
resulted in infantry movements of im
portance. Today's British official
statement is colorless, contrasting
strongly with the recent German offi
cial reports of unprecedented gunfire
in this area.
Color is lent the assumption that
operations on a notable scale are in
prospect here, however, by the offi
cial accounts from London of the
intensive aerial work in progress, in
which photographic observations on a
large scale have been carried out.
The destruction of aircraft yester
day was heavy on both sides, thirty
German machines' being downed and
thirteen British machines being re
ported missing.
The French front likewise was de
void last .night of infantry activity
aside from raiding excursions.
: Germans Advance in East.
Berlin, July 30. (Via London.)
German ttoops are advancing through
the Suchawa valley in the Austrian
province of Bukowina towards the
town of Seletyn, it was announced
officially today by the German gen
eral staff. The Germans also have
pushed forward to the east of the up
per Moldova valley.' r "
The statement says the Russians
are holding, the heights to the east
of the 2brocz river on the Russian
frontier,-which has been crossed by
the Teutons- at several points.
The par4lyiing defensive of the
German?, "says, the office statement
issued today by the Germany depart
ment had an influence on the entente
artillery in Flanders, which yesterday
did not attain the strength main
tained on previous days.
Allies Official Reports.
London, July 30. Except for small
encounters between British and Ger
man patrols near' Bullecourt and
Acheville, last night there was noth
ing to report on the British front in
France, the war office announced
today. . " ,' ' ' ,
Paris, July '30. Last night, there
were violent artilliry duels in the
Aisne and Verdun regions of the
French front while German surprise
attacks at various points were re
pulsed, the war office announced to
day. . -
Rome,-July 30. "Minor fighting re
united in our , favor on the Trentino
front and wo took some prisoners.
On the Julian front, there was con
siderable aerial activity. An enemy
machine was, brought down," the war
department announced today.

San Francisco. Cal.. July 30. The
presence of American troops on the
eastern front would be fatal to Ger
many, according to General Michael
Yassukovich, chief of the Russian
military commission, who was here
today.
, "If America will send 100,000 men
to Russia it will furnish an army that

mentators as best left tor refutation

News Roasts Carson's Break.
The Daily News, however, main
tains that although the chancellors
statements are valueless as evidence,
they cannot be left unanswered and
insists that a statement of war aims
to be formulated at the coming con
irrmcf of allies must constitute an
explicit disavowal of all thought of

paper denounces the "ignorance or
the folly of Sir Edward Carson's
threat to drive Germany behind the
Rhine," which, it says, has given Herr
Michaelis a weapon which he was
swift to use.
"It is in the power of the allies to
render the weapon innocuous, even
turninsr it against itself, but the repu
diation of its charge must come quick-
v and in a form Ieavmgno loophole

German Soil tor oermans.
The Chronicle proclaims its belief
that it would be unwise for the allies
to deprive Germany of genuine Ger
man soil. It points out tnat wnne tne
chancellor talks of yast territorial
modifications he mentions only the
Saar valley, and it suggests that
ranee mav be aiming to restore the
old German frontier of Lorraine,
which would Involve a little strip on
the German side of from five to fif
teen miles."
If France desired this for strategic
reasons, the Chronicle would not say
it tieenssarilv had the right, but "it
would be an exceedingly small affair
not comparable for an instant to Ger
many s seizure ot two large prov
inces in 1871. It must be remem
bered, too, that after losing some
millions in killed and wounded in a
war forced upon it and wherein it

has the right to make exceptional
claims for its future . security such

mendously by dispatching this expedi
tionary army to Russia at the earliest
moment. If America decides 4o do
this it will render far greater aid to
the allies in general, and Russia in
particular, than by sending a similar
army to the front in France or
Flanders."
General Yassukovich relieved Gen
eral Baldwin as head of the military
mission. The latter has returned to
Petrograd. Germany is spending
money with a lavish hand in Russia
to bribe agitators, said General Yassu
kovich. German mone alone, he
said, is responsible for the recent dis
astrous retreat of the Galician arm
ies, and for the opposition to the pro
visional government. Most of the

HARRISON G. OTIS
DIES ATLOS ANGLES
Ajed Publisher of Times Dies
of Heart Disease; Long
Career in Newspaper
Business.
s
Los Angeles, Cal., July 30. General
Harrison Gray Otis, president and
general manager of the Los Angeles
Times; died today at the home here
of his son-in-law, Harry Chandler, .,
Heart failure was said to have been
the cause. Although he had suffered
occasional attacks of illness recently,
General Otis, who was more than 80
years old, had keen at the Times of
fice nearly every day within the last
few weeks.
About a year ago he suffered an at
tack of pneumonia, but recovered
after a long illness.
General Otis was being served his
breakfast in his bedroom and appar
ently felt the attack coming as a maid
entered the room.
"Take away the tray; I am gone,"
he said, and he died before either Mr.
or Mrs. Chandler, who were in an
other part of the house, could reach
his side.
The, quick, quiet death, it was said
by friends, was as the general had
wished it to be.
In addition to his son-in-law, who
is assistant general manager and
treasurer of the Times, General Otis
is survived by two daughters, Mrs.
Chandler and Mrs. Franklin Booth of
Los Angeles, and thirteen , grand
children.
General Otis was a member of a
number of military patriotic and civic
societies in Los Angeles, among them
the American Academy of Sciences.
Last Christmas he gave his home
In Los Angeles for an art gallery for
the public to be maintained under
supervision of the county.
His first venture as a newspaper
publisher was in Marietta, Ohio,
where he acquired a small plant in
1865. Later he came to California
where he became editor and publisher
of the Santa Barbara-Press in 1876.
He acquired a fourth interest in the
Los Angeles Times in 1882 and four
years later organized the Times-Mir-rpr
company, of which he became
president and general manager. He
was a member of The Associated
Press. .

TALK OF BRITISH
LUSTOFCONQUEST
(Continued From re One.)
the only peace possible would be one
of abject surrender.
"George J. Wardle, chairman ot tne
r.itish abor party, refers to
Asquith, but talks like Bonar Law.
He demands of the German people
that it should force its government
to accept a peace dictated by a foe
who is animated by lust of conquest.
Such force, however, the German na
tion must leave to the entente armies
and it will continue to oppose it, as
has been done before.
"If Chairman Wardle is of the opin
ion that he is not noticing among the
German majority socialists a spirit of
repentance we would reply that the
German workingman would only ex
perience repentance if he left his
country in the lurch in the face of a
tenfold foe.- The workiogmen haven't
done so and do not propose to do so."
Ante-War Exchanges.
The Vossische Zeitung says:
"The fact that Germany desired to
arrive at an understanding with Eng
land regarding Belgian neutrality be
fore outbreak of the war and that
England made such an understanding
impossible would seem to be unknown
to Chancellor, Bonar Law and Mr.
Asquith, who was a war premier and
at times seems to have forgotten this
circumstance.
"The English government now dis
putes the power and authority of the
German Reichstag and its ability to
give the nation's politics official direc
tion. Only one answer is possible
in the face of such an attempt: The
representatives of the German people
must demonstrate that they are in
possession of this disputed authority
and are able to exercise it. ' If the
German people succeed in convincing
continental Europe of this fact, then
the chief English war aim will have
been disposed of."
Will Hold Belgium.
Copenhagen, July 29. The Berlin
Lokal Anzeiger, commenting on the
recent proceedings in the British
House of Commons, says:
"Mr. Asquith's inquiry as to
whether we were ready . to restore
Belgium's full freedom can only be
meant as a rhetorical question, for
Mr. Asquith must know that, aside
from a handful of dreamers, nobody
thinks of handing Belgium again to
England and France."
The Catholic organ, the Cologne
Volks Zeitung, attempts to prove
that the retention of Belgium and the
annexation of regions in the east are
indispensable to that protection of
the German frontiers which Chancel
lor Michaelis speified.
The Tages Zeitung adopts this
contention enthusiastically. Some of
the radical newspapers, on the other
hand, seek to give the impression
that the government is 60 bound by
the Reichstag'resolution that the en
tente allies have only to propose
peace without annexations or indem
nities to obtain it.
