RICHTHOFEN'S END.

A BRITISH VIEW. "Credit FiftyFifty."

LONDON, Jan. 13.— The correspon-dence concerning who brought down Baron Richthofen, the German war ace, continues.

The "Daily Telegraph," says that Don-ald Jenkins, who was serving as an ar-tillery observer on the high ground overlooking Vaux-sur-Somme agrees with the Australian view that Richthofen was shot from the ground. He wrote in his log book at tne time that a British biplane followed by a hostile triplane crossed at a height of 200 feet. He heard a machine gun fire in the air, followed by the same from the ground. He remembered at the time he disagreed with the British communique and agreed with the Ger-man one, the latter pointing out that Richthofen could not have been shot from the air, because immediately before crash-ing he was pursuing a British machine. "But'' he concluded, "the Australians must not overlook that the Canadian pi-lot decoyed or forced Richthofen to 200 feet over the high ground on the Bray-Corbie-road, where he was brought down by the Australians. I think the Aus-tralians' and Canadians' proportion of the credit should be fifty-fifty.
