French and American aviators bombed the main highroad south of Flames and blocked all traffic for eleven hours. The Ccrmans, after their retirement north of the Mai ne, clung to the north riank, between J.iuIkoiiho and oeuilly, for some time, their artillery and ma chine gunfire preventing the allies from crossing. Gradually the French and Americans established bridge heads on the north bank until the Ger mans dominated the river crossings only from the Vincelles (a mile east of Verneulll to Ouotlly.

Walter Avery of Columbus, in his first air battle, brought down the noted German ace, Captain Mendkopf, north of Chateau Thierry yesterday. The rival aviators came together while patrolling alone. For twenty minutes Mendkopf made futile efforts to gain an advantage by tricky maneuvering. Then Avery got on the German's tail and damaged the plane so that it was forced to land within the American lines. When Mendkopf learned this was Avery's Initial flight, he was enraged.

He sulked and refused to talk. SIXTKKN VICTIMS. Mendkopf Is credited with sixteen victims, including an American. He Is one of only six German aviators who wear the cross of merit. Another airman, after hearing of Avery's exploit, went out hunting on his own hook this morning.

He tackled a Boche and forced him down and landed to complete the cap ture. But he discovered that he was behind the German lines and he him self was made prisoner.

Tax payers of the United States must expect to provide something like "a couple of bil lion dollars in revenue annually" when peace comes. Based on the present estimated cost of the war the treasury department officials today declared after-the-war expenses would be more than double pre-war expenditures. But the apparently gigantic task of raising $2,000,000,001) each year besides the interests on loans made to our associates In the war Is not regarded as Insurmountable, When compared to the great financial problem faced by Germnny. this government's expense after the war will sink Into significance. The German public debt does not exceed $::0.000,000.000.

With Impaired earning power the Teutonic peoples must pay approximately $5,000,000,000 in taxes each year after the war. The German government had drained its people of gold, Jewels and heirlooms and with all of that the imperial hank carried less than $500,000,000 In gold stocks in Its vaults. May 31, It has heen ascertained. This nation has made no es pecial effort to get gold, yet It has now more than $3,600,000,000 In gold coin and bullion. TEAMS OFjALL-STARS.

Behind British Lines In 1 One of the most exciting tasks to which airmen are assigned Is what Is known as "desultory bombing" over one spot for an hour or more. Tho object Is to distract the attention of the anti-aircraft defenders of a given dtHtrlct, and a machine carrying a dor.en or more bombs Is employed for the work. At (list the airmen, pilot and an observer, approach their target cautiously.

With engines throttled down, the rrnft Klldeg nearer and nearer. Below nil Is quiet. No German searchlights are sweeping the sky. Whan the attackers are almost over their objective a rocket rises toward mem and bursts Inlo a cluster of red stars. The machine has been discovered.

At once six or seven searchlights throw their beams aloft. The pilot looks at hla watch; It Is time to begin his desultory bombing. He flies steadily on, although a barrage of bursting shells lies now In front of him. The observer looks through the wires of his bomb-sight to the ground below. At the proper Instant he thrusts his lever forward and release two homhs.

A few seconds later he gees the flash of their explosions, and above the crackling barrage, he can hear two dull roara. He signal to the pilot and the machine turns and sweeps uway from the fiery ring of shells and searchlights. A few miles away the airplane file to and fro at top speed. The puzzled searchlights vainly feel the sky In all directions and then, one by one, are switched off. Then Ihe pilot quickly moves again toward the target.

Another bomb is dropped As It explodes the searchlights reap pear and tho barrage la renewed while through the thickly grouped shell bursts are threaded the chains of green flaming globes, so much used by the Oermnns. Again the machine files awny and this time, to bewilder still more the soldiers below, the observer fires a white verery light which slowly drifts below and fades out. All the searchlights follow It until It dies. Bepeatedly the airmen return to tho attack. Bombs are dropped at Intervals until the end of the hour when the machine doparts, flickering fires and clouds of smoke telling of the havoc wrought by the bomb.
