AIR SERVICE OF
21,051 MEN IS
PEACE-TIME PLAN
WASHINGTON, April 14—Army re
organization plsns upon which the war
department is now working it is learn
ed, provide for an air service with
approximately 1,700 airplanes in ac
tual commission and a minimum avail-.
able reserve of 3,400 additional planes.'
Tllis is based upon the proposed mili- ;
tary establishment of 509,000 men, in
which the total air service personnel :
will be 1,923 officers and 21,853 men. |
The organization tables show that
the air forces on a peace basis will be 1
comprised of eighty-seven air service ■
squadrons, of which forty-two will be .
assigned to coast defense work in the >
United States and insular possessions; !
twenty will be pursuit squadrons and ,
twenty-five observation and bombing
squadrons. The typical army airplane
squadron includes eighteen planes in
service and their personnel.
Forty-Two Balloon Companies.
The tables also call for the mainet
nance of forty-two balloon companies,
divided into three wings of fourteen
companies each.
The general plan of the army re-or
ganization calls for twenty-one divis
ions, including one cavalry unit of nine
regiments, to be formed into five army
corps, each to be commanded by a
lieutenant general. To each corps /will
be attached five observation and bomb
ing squadrons of airplanes and four
pursuit squadrons, representing a
wing formation for each type of ma
chine
The effect of this will be to give the
air service definite recognition as the
fourth of the line, or combat, forces of
the army, the others being the old trio
or artillery, cavalry and infantry. All
other units are supplemental forces,
generally known as auxiliary arms or'
staff corps troops.
Carrying out the organization of this
new element of the line, the tactical
formation of the airplane branch of the
air service will be in squadrons, groups
and wings, and the balloon section in
companies, groups and wings.
Two Squadrons in Group.
The formation is elastic, however,
above the squadron, two or more
squadrons, as circumstances require,
forming a group and two or more
groups a wing. The same arrangment
prevails with infantry divisions, two
o/ more of which form a corps.
in sufficient number to
equip all of the air units planned Tor
are now being stored at the various
aviation fields that are being retained
by the government. Storage capacity
has been provided for approximately’
6,000 complete planes, not including
those in service, or in immediate re
serve, with the squadrons. In addi
tion, airplane motors by the thousand
have been stored, the up-keep of any
unit in service requiring three or four
extra motors per plane.
The production of planes has ex
ceeded, however, even the storage ca
pacity of the fields. The war de
partment is negotiating with alrplant
builders for the disposal or all train
ing and of a considerable number of
service machines, for which it has no
present or indicated future use or
place of storage.
The surplus machines are said to
form a separate problem. There is no
general market for the extra planes
and the only offers received have been
for relatively small numbers and at
prices that mean a tremendous loss to
the government on its investment.
There is no reason to expect, it is
said, that even a tenth of their cost
can be salvaked. Probably planes that
cost $15,000 or more will bring not
Imore than SI,OOO. The only offers thus
far received have been from the con
tractors who built the machines. There
is practically no commercial market
for airplanes. The offers received for
the government’s surplus represent
risks the builders are willing to take
in the hope of finding sales for the
planes later at much less than cost
price. To illustrate the situation from
a commercial viewpoint, attention was
called to a report that the recent air
plane show in New York City had re
sulted in only two sales.
Many government planes purchased
by the manufacturers, it is understood,
are to be converted into seaplanes.

Grand Opera Artist Will Sing on
Third Night of the Chautauqua
....'a
I'i
' '■
MME. AUGUSTA LENSKA.
Mme. Augusta Lenska, prima donna contralto, will appear in recital on
the third night of the coming Redpath Chautauqua. Mme. Lenska has scored
notable successes in this country and Europe, both as a grand opera prima
donna and as a concert and oratorio singer.
Mme. Lenska has a voice of beautiful, quality, rich in timbre and breadth
of range, together with ease and manner of diction.
This would permit their use for pleas
ure without having landing fields avail
able, since they could rise from and
return to the water.
So far as the Government is con
cerned it appears likely that the sur
plus will be disposed of eventually at
whatever loss, since to retain the ma
chaines would mean building new stor
age facilities and increased pesonnel
to keep them in shape, all without any
assurance they would ever be of any
vafue.
The training planes are already out
of date and expected development of
new types, soon will make even the
service machines obsolete. Whatever
the surplus machines may bring now,
it is argued, would’be a net saving
against an indicated total loss if they
are retained.

For Skin Tortures
Don’t worry about eczema or other
skin troubles. You can have a clear,
healthy skin by using Zemo, obtained
at any drug store for 35c, or extra large
bottle at SI.OO.
Zemo generally removes pimples,
blackheads, blotches, eczema and ring
worm and makes the skin clear and
healthy. Zemo is a clean, penetrating,
antiseptic liquid, neither sticky nor
greasy and stains nothing. It is easily
applied and-costs a mere trifle for each
application. It is always dependable.

Manganese Deposits
of State in Bulletin
The most recent publication of the
State Geological Survey is a report
on the manganese deposits of Georgia.
This is a bulletin of 295 pages, illus
trated with 21 halftones, 26 sketches,
and 2 maps, one of which shows in
colors the geologic distribution of the
ore-bearing formations in the Carter
sville district. Chemical analyses of
more than 130 ores are tabulated.
The first 23 pages are of an intro
ductory nature, including a classifica
tion of the ores and the uses of manga
ii’.ese, data on imports and production,
and a review of the theories regarding
I the origin of manganese deposits.
About 50 pages are given to the de
' scription of the geography and geolo-
Igy of the Cartersville districtj the
most important mining camp in the
State. The largest part of the book
is a description of individual deposits.
One of the chief features is a 50 page
discussion of mining and milling
methods.
This report is a record of part of
the activity of the State Survey in the
stimulation of the production of war
minerals. Although the signing of
the armistice in the great war brought
an end to much of the domestic man
ganese mining, and although it is es
timated that the steel industry-has on
hand a supply of ore sufficient to last
a year, it should be borne in mind that
the pricipal deposits of Georgia are
remarkably well located near rail
transportation and water so that the
readjustment to normal conditions
may b’e favorably effected.
The report is Bulletin No. 35 of the
State Geoligical Survey, entitled “A
Report on the Manganese Deposits of
Georgia,” by J. P. D. Hill, Assistant
State Geologist, Laurence LaForge of
the U. S. Geologocal Survey, and W. R.
Crane of the U. S. Bureau of Mines.
Copies will be mailed by Prof. S. W.
McGallie, State Geologist, to any citi
zen of the State upon receipt of 12
cents postage.

Make This Test For
Acid-Stomach
There are millions of people who
suffer almost daily from the horrors
of an acid-stomach—indigestion; sour,
gassy, stomach; distressing heart
burn; sickening food-repeating; pain
ful bloat and that miserable, puffed
up, lumpy feeling after eating. Many
of these people have tried treatment
after treatment; medicine after medi
cine; others have gone to doctors
and stomach specialists and some to
hospitals but in spite of all of their
efforts they have obtained no lasting
relief or a permanent cure.
These symptoms simply mean acid
stomach. If allowed to run on, they
are very likely to cause a lot of ser
ious trouble. Dyspepsia, rheumatism,
gout, lumbago, sciatica, splitting
headache, dizzy spells, nervousness,
sleeplessness, mental depression, mel
ancholia, a feeling of listlessness and
all-goneness—these are just a few of
the disorders which can be traced to
acid-stomach. As a matter of fact,
acid-stomach is often the direct cause
of those almost incurable conditions
known as catarrh of the stomach, in
testinal ulcer, and cancer of the stom
ach. The lives of those who suffer
from these serious troubles are nothing
short of daily agony. Surely, then,
you must see how important it is to
go at once to the seat of the trouble
