A BOY SOLDIER.
Hanau Premier Adopts Had Who is
Fighting iu The Ranks.
Headquarters Italian Army. May 2<?
(Correspondence cf The Associated
Press)?Premier Orlando and Gener?
al Sani were passing along the front
of the famous Arditi, or Italian storm
trooi>?, the other day, when the Pre?
mier aignled out in the ranks a small
boy carrying a rille. The Premier
stopped and asked who this boy sol?
dier OOUld be. and General Sani relat?
ed this story:
During the retreat last October, the
twenty-first battalion of Arditi passed
Westward through the village of Os
pitale in the province of Heal lu no. It
waa a stirring event for the village,
and all the children were in the street
to see the soldiers go by, Including a
pale-faced boy of fifteen, David Mar
cello, a farm bei per for his father. At
the sight of the marching men the lad
simply threw away his farm tools and
joined in the wake of the Hops, doing
odd jobs for them and being received
as a little brother.
Rut David had other ideas, he did
not intend to be a privileged little
brother but wanted to get In the
ranks and be a combatant. He took
part in several assaults and develop*
cd remarkably expert ability In throw?
ing hand grenades. As a specialis! Io?
was in the very forefront of these fa?
mous lighters.
"I Hied to give him a regular status
in the ranks as a soldier," said Gen?
eral Sani. "but there has been dif?
ficulty In accomplishing it thus far."
"There will be no more difficulty,"
Said the Premier, touched by the story
of the boys courage and ability. "I
ask yotl to retain him in the twenty
fust Assault battalion, as from this
moment 1 adopt the boy as one of
my sons."
Ami the long line of seasoned vet?
erans saw the Prime Minister of Italy
step forward and put his hand on the
shoulder of the pale-faced boy.
"David," said the Premier, "you
are now as one of my sons. 1 expect
a letter from von every month. Your

Iteport on Opportunity for shoe Ex?
ports to 'South America.
Washington, May 24.?For the as?
sistance of American shoe manufac?
turers in enlarging their South Amer?
ican trade, the Bureau of Foreign and
Domestic Commerce has imported
more than 1&0 samples of the kinds of
footwear most generally used in Lat
ln-America and will publish soon a
series of special reports on the South
American shoe trade by Herman G.
Brock, of Brockton. Mass., who re?
cently returned to this country after
a long tour as a special agent for the
Bureau.
The best opportunities for the sale
of American shoes were found by Mr.
Brock to be on the west coast of South
America. High grade shoes are scarce
there, while the countries are very
prosperous from the sales of unusual
quantities of nitrates, other minerals
and foodstuffs at war prices. On the
east coast there is an over-production
of tine shoes by the numerous and up
to-date factories in Argentina, Uru?
guay and Brazil. Argentina recently
doubled the duty on imported shoes
for the protection of home industry
and tariffs in the other two countries
also ate high.
Peculiarities of the Latin-American
foot must be considered in making
goods for sale in those countries. It
was with this in mind, particularly,
that the Bureau collected representa
tise styles of shoes to illustrate the
very high instep, broad ankle, short
vamp and high heel, which the South
American demands.
In styles, the South American fac?
tories generally copy American types,
adapted to local conditions. The
modes are varied frequently to main?
tain the advantage of domestic over
Imported shoes. Niceties of finish are
required, rather than long-wearing
qualities, and objection frequently has
been made to high-grade American
made boots for women because there
was some roughness of detail or be?
cause they were to heavy. The South
American buyer wants a "piano
finish" even on the bottom.? of the
soles, which must be flexible and
light, and any loose threads are like?
ly to prevent a sale.
Another demand made is that shoe
uppers should come together over
the instep .which is directly contrary
to ideas of a perfect fit in this coun?
try.
Except in the very large cities,
there is no such thing as a fixed price
for an article. Every purchase is
the occasion of much bargaining, so
that the American custom of stamp?
ing prices on the soles of shoes is not
in favor.
American machinery is used almost
exclusively in the South American
factories. Buenos Aires alone has
more than 200 factories some of
which have a daily capacity of 8,000
pairs.
Before the war, England led In the
sale of men's shoes to South Ameri?
ca. Austria. France and Switzerland
sold the bulk of women's and chil?
dren's shoes, but all of the Austrian
product was cleared through Ham?
burg commission houses and the trade
statistics gave Germany the credit for
the sales. American firms have an
excellent reputation, for fair dealing,
the quality of their goods and man?
ner in which the goods are packed,
which probably accounts for the in?
crease in business in recent years.
Mr. Brock pointed out that, the
small population of Cuba buys more
American shoes than the &0.000,000
inhabitants of South America. He
said that in spite of export restric?
tions necessary for a -suecesful prose?
cution of the war and notwithtsand
ing the difficulties of doing business
abroad at present, American manu?
facturers who are seriously interested
in building up a permanent export
trade, cannot be too strongly urged
to acquaint themselves now with
South American needs.
PLOTS IN IRELAND.
Exposure of Gorman Efforts to Start
Devolution.
London, May 2fi.?Germany's un?
tiring efforts to foment rebellion in
Ireland with the aid of the Sinn Feln
era was laid bare in a statement of
the official press bureau, reviewing
this phase of the Irish political sit?
uation Since the beginning of the
war. After the abortive revolt of
Kaster in 1916, plans were made to
revolt the next year, but these mis?
carried because of America's entrance
into the war, and Germany's inability
to send troops to Ireland. An upris?
ing was planned for this year, after
Germany's offensive in the west had
been successful. Fnder the circum?
stances, it Is added, no other course
Is open to the government, "Is use?
less bloodshed Is to be avoided, and
its duties to the Allies fulfilled, hut
to Intern the authors and abettors of
this criminal intrigue."

STAR FIGHTERS.
How Airmen aw Picked on! and
Trained for Fighters.
London. May 2.0 t P?y Associated,
Press) How does the British Air
Service pick out from its thousands
of airmen, the particular men who
are destined to become the HM "fight?
ers" at the front? This question was
put to an official of the Air Ministry
here by The Associated Press corre?
spondent in an interview. Here is his
answer:
"The pilot who is destine 1 to fly
the single-seater machines of the Air
Force is 'discovered' almost as soon
as he has been baptized in the air.
"To begin with, he must have pass?
ed certain physical tests with a hun?
dred percent result. Many wise men,
doctors and organizers, sit in con?
clave over these tests. They wefine
certain factors that go to make up a
'perfect' airman?perfect sight, age
24 or its equivalent in physical make?
up, a total abstainer, good hands,
quick brain, keenness, confidence. It
is odd how much emphasis is placed
on a man's hands by the examiners,
who argue that there is as much dif?
ference between flying a scout and an
ordinary machine as there is between
riding a thoioughbred and a cart?
horse.
"Some men show their destiny from
the flrst moment of training. Men
like Ball and Bishop proriise well
right from start; they revel in find?
ing new stunts and tricks of their
own, long before their heavier-hand?
ed brethren begin to attempt the
things that are safe on all modern
machines.
"Other men begin slowly, and find
themselves through sheer p uck and
hard work. Having gone over the
Channel to pilot a placid artillery ob?
servation or photographic machine,
they give a good account of them?
selves in the first scrap they get mix?
ed up in, and thereafter they look for,
and seem to enjoy, fights. An observ?
er in bis official report casually re?
marks that Pilot So-and so l.i 'always
wanting to tackle the Huns Instead of
talting photographs or ranging guns,'
and straightway his commar. ding of?
ficer sends the trouble-hunter off to
headquarters with a recommendation
which lands him in special post-grad?
uate school or aerial gunr.ery for
training in what the airmen call 'fire
eating.'
"Here he meets the men?acea they
call them in France?who have tuen
lighting in single-seaters, and who
are resting or have been sent back
for use as instructors. The public
knows little about these post-gradu?
ate schools for young eagles; the. work
is intensive and thorough; the science
of air-fighting is taught by stages up
to a degree of perfection almost un?
believable.
"To the airman who fights, such
things as tactics and deflection,
ranges and sights, must come by in?
stinct. The good fighting man, it la
generally believed, is born, not made.
He must have the quick brain that
will direct the hands with the Judg
ment of experience. He must have
keenness, and also luck. He must love
'the game,' although it if not neces?
sary that he should have been a
sportsman, or a yachtsman or a rac?
ing motorist in his pre-war days.
"It is the general opinion among
pilots that a scout fighter who has
completed a month on the western
front has passed through his proba?
tion and will be good for a long time
unless bad luck or the laws of chance
bring him down."
YORK'S PATRIOTIC MEN.
