in Transporting Its Army
From America to France

Paris, June 30.-Not man was
lost during the transfer of the
American forces to France and there
was not even a case of serious ill
ness, said Major General Pershing,
the American commander on his re-
turn to his headquarters to-day after
a quick trip to the port of debarl<a-
ton.
THE landing of the first Ameri-
can troops has been a complete sue
cess he said. I'm this remarkable
transfer of a large force across the
ocean-one of the largest operations
we have ever undertaken-not a man
or an animal was lost or injured and
there was not a single case of serious
sickness-nothing but few unim-
portant cases of mumps. The men
landed in splendid morale, with keen,
confident and eager spirit.
The physical appearance of our
men is truly inspiring. They are all
fine. husky young fellows, with the
glow of energy, good health and
physical vigor which will make them
credit along side any troops. They
are exceptionally we'll camped and
cared for, with substantial wooden
barracks, good beds. good food and
the best sanitary arrangements.
They are located on high ground. For
all of this weare deeply indebted to

sanguine that he would be able to
abolish excessive profits in food
stuffs and to reduce prices.
Referring to the American food
