General Pershing's rank and full pay will go from him. He now receives $13,500 in pay and $8,000 in allowances-$21,500 in all. After his retirement he will receive $10,125 in pay and no allowances.

Lieut. Locatelli, Italian airman, reached Greenland, repaired his plane, called on Lieut. Lowell H. Smith, to whom he presented a letter from the American Air Attaché of the Embassy in Rome. This missive, 20 days old, was full of cordial greetings, hearty wishes; it brought smiles to the windburnt Icarians. Locatelli stated that he would fly to the U. S. with the homing planes of Lieuts. Nelson and Smith...
