was bestowed upon her in recognition
of her patriotic work in recruiting
more than 5000 men for Uncle Sam 3

sands of dollars for the Red Cross
fund. She is the youngest officer in

to the importance of holding the
heights which formed the center Of
the attack and they struggled desper-
ately against the British wave.
Unlike previous offensive blows
struck recently, the British used. very
few tanks. The ground was not fav-
orabIe for their utilization. Also they
were not needed as the depth of the
British artillery fire was greater than
has hitherto been seen anywhere in
the war.
Airplanes Big Feature
The ground over which the advance
was made was muddy. Heavy showers
during the night made the going even
heavier. Throughout the morning the
clouds hung only six hundred feet
above the ground and a high wind whip
ped singing mist into the faces of the
fighters.
According to pre-arranged plans,
great numbers Of British airmen par
tieipated in the attack. They earned
the right to be called ''aerial caval-
ry" hereafter. At 500 feet altitude
and less during the thiekest of the in
fantrv fighting they swooped above
the German lines watching for open
bodies of troops and, finding them,
ducked down sometimes so low that
their wheels seemed almost to touch
the helmets of the TeutOns, their ma
chine guns scattering death.
It was the first battle in which the
airmen were formally assigned to the
task of machine cunning infantry.

a gunman, that he nabitually carried
concealed weapons, that Moore had
made assertions that he had killed other
men and that he showed sears of gun
fight wounds, that he was an expert
pistolman of the kind read of i'll "The
V~irginian" that his unerring aim was
known to Bradley, and that Bradley
fer some time was In fear of bodily
harm from Moore.
. The attorney declared the defense
would attemp5 to prove that as a result
of the trouble over the grocery bill run
up by Moore at Ransom g in Turner and
which Bradley stood good for until a
settlement was made and it was found
that Moore owed Bradley some $67,
that hot words were passed between the
men and that then Moore threatened
the life of Bradley. From then on he
said the defense would show that Moore
evineed a surely disposition against
Bradley.
What Killing Grew Out Of.
Moore at that time was living in a
house on the ground leased by Bradley
from L. II. Turner and the defense stat
ed it would show that Bradley told
Moore he wanted the house and that
Moore refused to go unless Bradley
bought his garden. Bradley is said to
have asked Moore what he wanted for
il and Moore replied 800, which Brad
lev said was too much. He proposed
to leave the matter for arbitration and
Bradley chose one man and Moore a
second, and both these chose a third.
After the arbitrators viewed the garden
they fixed SIS as a fair price, and this
was Indignantly refused by Moore. The
price, SO the attorney said the arbitra-
tors stated, was exhorbitant and was
made to get Moore off the place and
avoid trouble.
At the end of this affair, Attorney
Trindle said the defense would prove
that Moore rushed into his house and
came out with his hand in his pocket
as if he was armed.
The defense declared that a few days
later Bradley attempted to plow near a
potato patch that Moore had planted
and and that he probably had plowed
along several rows of potatoes when
Moore again threatened Bradley's life
by. saying eff he plowed that patch
again he would be hauled out.
Moore Is Suspected.
The attorney told the jury that the
defense expected to prove that one
evening Bradley saw lights i'll Moore, s
house later than usual, and that Brad
ley, who suspected Moore of carrying
away his oats, armed himself and went
to the field. There he discovered Moore
taking the oats. Then he sat down and
studied over what he should do, whether
to go after him or report him to the
authorities. While he was thinking the
matter over, Moore came back and sud
denly appeared from behind some
bushes before Bradley was aware he
was near.
Bradley then told Moore to ''throw
up your hands" and Moore said 81
will" but al the same time sided
around and grabbed for his pocket
where he usually kept his gun. Bradley
told him again TO throw up his hands
but Moore jerked for his gun and Brad
ley shot.

a telegram from Washington appoint
ing him official United States media
tor in the strike of ironworkers which
has tied up San Francisco bay ship
building.
Heretofore w. Y. Boyce, assistant
immigration inspector, has been serv-

will continue to work in conjunction
with McNabb.
Representatives of employers and
ironworkers are deadlocked.
Despite statements by federal agents
that a settlement, permanent or tenn
porary, would be reached before Mon
day, representatives of the ironworkers
reclared today that they see no imme-
date prospect of a settlement. Their
nerves strained to the utmost as the
result of the long hours Of conference
through which they had passed, spokes-
men of the employers and unions APP

admitted that no basis of adjustment
