Only Dog Awarded Croix De Guerre for
Air Service in France Visits in Omaha
With Belgian Police Her
itage 'Billy' Thwarts
German Plane
Attack.
"Billy" is just a dog, with , a
friendly bark and a tail that wags
unceasingly. (
Yet "Billy" has been in more air
fighting on the western battle' front
in Europe than any other dog in
the world, and has bcn awarded a
Croix de Guerre for defeating,
through his watchfulness, an entire
German air squadron.
""Billy" and his master, Mai. F. S.
Judson, of St. Paul, Minn., former
ly commander of the 86th squadron,
Canadian Flying circus, arrived in
Omaha yesterday on their way to
Los Angeles.
"Billy" immediately made friends
with everyone in the lobby of Hotel
Fontenelle, where his master is
stopping, for the fact that his father
is a full blooded Belgian police dog,
valued at more than $10,000 has not
made "Billy" snobbish.
Billy's First Flight.
Major Judson bought "Billy." from
a wealthy Belgian at Ytrea "while he
was still a puppy, paying the Bel
gian $500.
He fed "Billy" milk from a bot
tle until he had grown strong
enpugh to fly at high altitudes.
"Billy's" first air flight took place
when he was but 4 weeks old. He
was strapped to, the cockpjt,!of his
master's machine .: '; ., "f
Thefact that " "on-w this first' flight'
the machine was ...fiddled,.; with ma
chine gun "bullets from an enemy
airplane did not terrify "Billy."
In fact he rather seemed to like
flying, according to his master, who
frofn that time never left the ground
without "Billy."
Every Dog Has His Pay.
But like every other dog, "Billy"
had his one great day.
This day was on July 12, 1918,
the first day which "Billy's" master
permitted him to fly without being
strapped in the cockpit of the air
plane. ' " ,
The sun shone brightly over the
battlefield as "Billy" and his master
soared through the crisp, invigorat
ing air.'
"Billy" stood with his head well
over the edge of the cockpit; his
master was intent on the driving of
his plane.
Suddenly "Billy's" bright eyes
saw four specks looming up behind
his master's plane.
After more than 90 hours of fly
ing "Billy" had come to realize
these four specks meant danger.
Joggles Master's Arm.
He barked sharply, but the roar
of the engine drowned out all other
sound. The specks were growing
larger.
"Billy" hesitated a moment, then
gave his master's arm a light tug.
The plane veered slightly and
Major Judson saw the impending
danger. He nose-dived and escaped
the onrush of Hun planes.
The record of the battle which
ensued is one of the bright spots in
the annals of the 86th squadron.
Four Hun planes were downed by
the single British, plane, but as the
last Hun plane crashed to earth the
British plane also fell.
Kissed By General.
Major Judson was knocked un
conscious, but "Billy" was unhurt.

to his master.
This was "Billy's" great day, the
day for which he received the Croix
de Guerre, and was kissed by a
French general.
For his service on this day and
throughout the war "Billy's" mas
ter has received five decorations,

M' Adoo Answers Labor
Questionnaire; Says
He Is Not a Candidate
Washington, March 31. William
G. McAdoo, iormer secretary of the
treasury, replying today to the ques
tionnaire of "Labor," the railroad
brotherhoods' publication, says he is
not a candidate for the democratic
nomination for president and that
his "campaign is not financed be
cause there is no campaign for me."
Mr. McAdoo says he is willing to
join in an appeal to congress to im-
mediately enact legislation com
pelling candidates for the presi
dency to make sworn returns show
ing all moneys expended.
"I think," he wrote, "the corrupt
use of money to nominate and elect
candidates to office is one of the
most sinister and serious menaces to
democratic institutions." '
