Washlnptoc.—General Pert bin* advised the War Department Lost early to August a complete squadron of eighteen De HavUand four airplane*, built in tbe United States and equipped with Liberty motor*. * access fully carried owl the first reconnaissance flight of Amcrlcan-bnilt mi- ‘ chine* behind tbe German line*. They returned without loss In makin; tbla announcement Secretary Baker said that Brigadier Genera) Fouloia. c* the American Air Service, led tb- ixpedltlon. This was tbe first report from General PenUinp on the performance of American-built De HavilanJ* to be made pob.lc. ; Secretary Baker said bis advices j contained no other information r>r.srdinp the flight, except that LUu:«nant Blair Thaw also was on the - trip. The time and place of the flight. Mr. Baker considered It advisable to

withhold.

The announcement was considered by officers as selling at re*t rumor* that the De Hnvlland machine, were not a success, and alro as showing that the Liberty motor* have now proven themselves In actual war conditlon*. Whether the squadron wa* attacked was not stated. It would , have been well able to take care of ! Itself, however, a* toe maculae*, curb , carrying a pilot and observer, are equipped with four machln* puns on r-commendation of General Per*hJrg made month* ago. Tbe flight undoubtedly wa* a scouting trip, and probably many photographs of tbe enemy** work* were brought back, tbe American photographic equipment for this service, devised *lnce tbe war began, also coniine In for a final test. No recent figures on the produri tion of the De Haviland fours ate ! available, and Stcretary Baker would 1 not sanction discussion of this phase of toe matf r It 1* rwcaliel. bo» ever, that the production of th* enr thousandth machlsi at the plant of the Hayton-Wright f'otnpaay was re Icently celebrated, and aitc* then an other great plant has gome Into qusi. tity prodnrtlon.
