ever seen was that which Ezekiel saw
as he was led through the valley in
the spirit of Jehovah. This wonder
ful vision and its message to us of

the Christian church. In the evening

SOME COURT INFIRMITY

1t makes ones blood run cold to
read and see so much about the ev-
eryday American Stacker. Writers in
the past have always pictured this
country as being inhabited by brave,
G~od-fearing people, who would rise as
man to defend our right and honor
but during the last few months have
shown this is not true. 1t does not
come from foreign born citizens who
have adopted this country as their own
but some of our native-born fellows
are showing the yellow streak. 1t

The United States had better exert
its utmost energy to defeat Germany
now, while France, England, Italy,
and Russia and others are helping, be-
cause if Germany cleans them up, and
it is not impossible, she will come owe
here, with the captured British and
French fleets added to hers, and we
would have a swell chance to lick her,
or even to escape subjugation at her
hands. OF course if our people would
unite as one man against any nation
there would be little chance to whip
us on our home grounds, but there are
always a few wouldbe citizens who
think it wrong to fight for their
try who leave nothing undone to help
the opposition.

Especial Dispatch to The JournalD
BIRMINGHAM, Ala, Nov. 5.-The
North Alabama conference of the Meth =
odist Episcopal church, South, in ses-
sion here has voted overwhelmingly in
favor of the recent proposal to CONSOLE
date the religious departments of the
Southern University of the Alabama con-
ference and the Birmingham college of
the North Alabama conference. The
proposal was based upon the recent re-
port of the conference board of educa-
ton.
Dr. J. S. Chadwick, assistant editor
of the Nashville Christian Advocate, who
is a visitor to the conference, spoke In
favor of the proposal, declaring that
unless the two colleges were united
both would face the future without
hope because of financial embarrass-
ment. With the proposal adopted, one
large male college will be established
at Owenton, Birmingham, where Biz
mingham college is now located.

AMERICAN SHELLS
FELL ON SOIL OF
PRUSSIAN EMPIRE
Unusual WaStage of Ammuni-
ton in Banage Fire for
Raiders Probably Caused by
PiqUe of German Officials

NEW YORK, Nov. 5.-The German
war office location of the first raid on
American trenches as along the Rhine
Marine canal, indicates that American
artillery is now firing its shells di-
rectly on German territory
The western battle front crosses the
Hhine-Marne canal within easy artillery
range of the Germany boundary of
Lorraine. BY revealing the spot where
Teutonic raiders found the American
trenches, the kaiser has been compelled
to permit the German people to know
that Americas first bombardment on
the European battlefield have caused
demolition of positions upon the Ger
man empires own soils
The first announcement that American
artillery had been engaged in action in
France was made on October 81, while
the date of the German raid on Amer
lean trenches was November 8. For
at least a week, therefore, before the
Germans sent patrol to investigate the
sudden activity opposite the Lorraine
border, American guns must have had
German ground under actual or poten-
tial bombardment.
This is doubtless the reason why the
Germans took such unusual measures
to raid the American trench sector by
providing a barrage artillery fire and
cutting off the American victims from
all possible help during the period Of
the raid. Artillery ammunition is too
precious to Germany TO be thrown away
In this costly manner often. The dam
age, however, that American shells had
probably been doing on German soil for
at beast a week, makes applicable the
appoeently reckless expenditur of bar
rags fire to assist a party of raiders.
The Germans must be fearful OF
sending raiding parties against the
American trenches without artillery
protection because of the extreme thin
ness of the Lorraine front. In Elan
ders, where the greatest fighting in
tensity Is occurring, the Germans have
four men per yard. Along the Lor-
raine border II has recently been semi
officially stated that they have one
for every two yards. German raiding
parties, therefore, can depend little on
infantry support in returning from the
American trenches. and the raiders must
have artillery help as If they were min
iature offensives.

u. S. SOLDIERS IN
HOSPITAL GETTING
FINE TREATMENT
Wounded Men Are Allowed Exr
ira Visitors, One of Whom
Is Mrs, August Belmont, Of
New York

AMERICAN FIELD HEADQUAR-
TIERS IN FRANCE, Nov. 4.-(Delayed)
A few wounded American soldiers are in
a certain big base hospital today. They
are getting the very best treatment
American nurses and American surgeons
can give them-and extra visitors.
One OF these visitors today was Mrs
August Belmont, of New York, who made
detailed inspection of two base hos
pitfalls. The wounded Sammies. with
some of the sick soldiers, were at one
of these.
(Note-This is the first mention IN
direct front dispatches of wounded
American soldiers" 1t is evident these
men were wounded in the German raid
reported by the war department today
to have resulted in the first actual casu-
alties to American troops. A staff
correspondent evidently was not
permitted by the censorship to de-
tail the circumstances. Only one wound
ed American has heretofore been reported
in Pegler's dispatches-a signal corps
lieutenant whose leg was injured by shell
fragments early last week..
Mrs. Belmont had a good visit with
the American soldiers, chatting with
them at their cots, and then departed
for (deleted) to visit Red Cross Sec
ton there which is at present engaged
in civilian relief work. IN this city she
saw the terrible effects of air bombs re-
Gently dropped by German raiders in
what was described by survivors as
veritable rain of explosives, which tore
great holes in the buildings and streets
Of the residential section.
Mrs Belmont declared she hoped to
have an opportunity to visit Rheims,
but was dubious whether the French
authorities would permit so dangerous
trip.
The delegation of American congress-
men is expected to arrive in the Ameri-
can training area Monday. A special pro-
gram showing the American troops go
ing their war PAGES has been planned
for their edifcaton.
Next week five additional American
major generals will visit the American
camp-making a total of ten major gen
erals of the United States army who
have been here in two weeks.

counting the votes of thousands of SOL
diers and sailors. in the opinion of many
political observers. 1t is estimated there
are 20, 900 New Workers now under arms
in the army and navy. Registration at
the various camps indicate, it is said.
that about $4,000 of these are entitled
to vote. In addition, many New York
soldiers and sailors now with the Ameri-
can forces overseas are eligible to vote.
Under the ruling made at Albany
with respect to the vote cast at Camp
Wadsworth, Spartanburg, s. c., the ball
lots from the various camps will be
sent to Albany. and then will be for
warded to the individual election dis
tricts for consolidation with the returns
from these districts. A long delay is
thus considered inevitable.
with the campaign virtually over, the
managers for the four candidates for
mayor today professed to see victory
tomorrow.
