FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 25. FINE 11 OF GERMAN AIRMEN ' IN PILOTING ARMIES TO FRANCE Corporal Fritz Werner, Erstwhile Berlin Gentleman of Leis ure, Signalled Artillery in Stubborn British Retreat at Mons. Berlin—German aeroplanes accomplish ed great work in piloting the onrushing armies through Belgium into France, French and English reports to tlie con trary. This; is the contention of Cor poral Fritz Werner, of the German Aero Corps, who should know’, for it was he vs ho flew over Paris, dropping bombs and bulletins of German victories, and escaped after a thrilling battle in mid air with a British and a French bird man. Fritz Weiner , society favorite and ?rack tennis player was one of the nota bles who disappeared w’hen the order for mnhilization was issued and who has returned to Berlin—not in his old role of podshed gentleman of leisure, but to re place the flying machine he used so suc cssfully in the invasion of France.

Werner’s criticisms of German and French aeroplanes are interesting from the point of view of an actual expert. Werner propose to secure biplane machine he thinks best adapted for war purposes. The French machines, Werner de declared. are too lightly built for war purposes and smash too easily. This accounted, he thought, for failuVe of the French aeroplane corps to accomplish what had been expected of It. It was in describing his fight over Paris that the aviator brought out the fact that both the English and French flying machines can soar above the German type. It was because neither of his foes carried bombs that WerneA' ascribed his escape. Werner made light of the reported uni- •—« —— Whatever price we put on a shoe, it is al ways our object to give the best shoe at the price that money can buy anywhere.

Casual ties among the ah- scouts, he said, had been remarkably light considering the risks. Uittle danger was experienced from hostile firing. Corporal Werner's estimate of the fighting qualities of the Allies’ tallies with that of officers of the general staff who have returned from the front. "Ex cept at first." said the aviator, "espe cially at Eiege, the Belgians ran way. The practice of the French artillery Is excellent. But the British were the best soldiers we met. Before their morale became shaken by repeated defeats and heavy losses they stuck to their trenches doggedly. Our heavy artillery and the way our men kept coming regardless of losses finally got them and they' ran too. At Laying Traps. He said he heard the Britisti also were gVeat at minor tactics, suclt as laying traps for advance guards in villages and harrying outposts, but that their feats in this line were absolutely without ef fect in altering the final outcome. According to Werner the four factors largely responsible for the Germans’ successes in the first month's operations were the heavy field artillery, the tra veling field kitchens, the soldiers' sturdy legs and the aviation corps. The inclu sion of his own branch of tile services, 'boastful thougu it may seem, is con firmed by the opinion of other offices. In regard to the field guns, the French artillery has proved a worthy opponent —German officers cheerfully admit that -hut thus far the FVeneh have had noth ing to oppose the iteavy German artil lery which, by its indirect, plunging fire, has rendered trenches and gun positions untenable and has pounded retiring troops from orderly retreat into full flight. One of Few. W r erner is one of the few who lias viewed a great part of the modern line of battle much as Napoleon trt- Frederick the Great looked over the opposing forces from some high point of vantage. His was a graphic description of the stubborn retreat of the British army from Mons, for he had hovered over the rert-eatlng troops, signalled to tlie Ger man artillery the location of their en trenchments and watched the final rear ward march under the plunging fire of the monster mortars. He saw the Ger man cavalry block the Bvitons’ flight near St. Quentin and bring Sir John French’s force again to bay to be over whelmed by the German Infantry attack and the nail of shrapnel, and to melt away In the direction of Compiegne.
