The whole world admircs, ans sare,
as I do, the skill and executive ca
pacity with which you handled the
great and complex problem ee the
unified administration of the railways
under the stress Of war uses, and will
regret as | do to sec you leave that
post as the crest Of it's difficulty is

For the distinguished, disinterest-
cd, and altogether admirable service
you have rendered 1.-THE country in
both posts and especially for the way
in which you have guided the Treas
ury all through the perplexities and
problems of transitional financial con-
dtons and OF the financing of war
which has been without precedent
alike in kind and in scope, l thank
you with sense Of gratitude that
comes from the very bottom of my

"Gratefully and affectionately yours,
WOODROW WILSON"
1t is entirely probable that the Pres
idcnt may fill separately The Offices OF
secretary Of the treasury and director
general of railroads. There was moth
ing official tonight on which to base
a statement of who might be under
consideration for secretary of the
treasury. On previous occasions when
a successor to Mr.. McAdoo was dis
cusscd John SHELTON Williams, comp
troller Of the currency and w. p. G..
Harding, governor of the federal re-
serve board have most generally been
mentioned. Paul Warburg, formerly
member Of the reserve board, and a
prominent New York banker, and Rus
sell c. Liffingwcll, assistant secretary
Of the treasury are rcckOncd among
the possibilities.
President Wilson Is not required to
choose the now director general OF the
railroads from among cabinet mem
bcrs and it is possible that the place
may go TO some one associated with
tration. If the place should go to some
member of the cabinet, Secretary
Baker Of the war department, Post
master General Burcson and Sccrc-
tary Lane, Of the interior department
are likely TO be considered

weeks ago. This was a strategic sec
tor, because all Of the German lines
north hinged on it. The 93rd pushed
steadily forward in the face Of deadly
fire and ultimately with other divisions
forced the Germans out.
While the 93rd was putting up its
valiant fight the 30th was being
groomcd for the great attack on the
Hindcnburg line. and on Sept 25th,
with the 9th New York Division, be-
gan the attack which resulted, Oct. 9th,
in the breach of the German line at
Cambria.
Thus we see that South Carolina
troops. among them our own Laurens
boys. had part and big part, in the
three vital movements Of the cam
paign: the first counter offensive be-
tween Chateau-Thierry and Sossons,
the breaking Of the Huns grip on the
Meusc. and the breach of the German
line at Cambrai.
In recalling. rather informally.
these incidents of the war, The Ad
vcrtiscr is not rejecting upon the
magnificent records made by other
units Of South Carolina troops. The
Slst Division. also composed largely
Of South Carolina troops, has been
heavily engaged and lost many of it's
men, no doubt, but the censor has not
lifted his imperious hand enough for
us to get an adequate idea of what
they have been doing.
