From United States to Ital-
ian Front.
tBy Associated Press,


WASHINGTON, June 29.-The first
American troops landed in Italy yes
terday. General March. chief of staff,
announced today. These are not the
forces sent by General Pershing, but
consisted of units shipped from this
country. The troops consit largely of
sanitary units, but include other spe-
cial organizations, General March ex-
planned. On the whole, however, it is
made up mostly of noncombatant
units. The combantant troops will be
sent by General Pershing, as previous
ly announced.
General March had no announce
ment to make today as to the total
number of troops shipped from this
country to France. Formal announce
ment he said would be made later.
Surveying the entire battle front,
General March said the situation
could be said to be extremely favor
able to the allies. He would make no
comment upon the indications of an
impending German attack
The first national army division has
taken up sector at the front General
March also announced. 1t is the 77th,
raised in New York, trained at Camp
Upton, and originally commanded by
Major General J. Franklin Bell
Five American divisions which had
been brigaded with the British for
training have been returned to General
Pershing's command with training
comnleted. One of these is the 35th
division composed of Kansas and Mis-
souri, troops.
General March disclosed that the
official report from the Italian front
placed the number of Austrians cap,
tured at $4,000 and large amount of
war material. The line of the Piave
has been entirely restored by the Ital-
ians and in some places has been
slightly advanced

PANAMA., June 29-Upon orders
from Washington. American troops
began policing Panama and Colon at

action was taken under the treaty of
1904 authorizing the United States to
assume this police duty whenever it
was necessary to maintain order. The

Washington, against the measure
President Urriola has prepared a
manifesto to the country and yester-
day afternoon sent the following
cablegram to President Wilson:
To-day at IL o'clock l was inform
ed by the charge d'affaires of the Unit
ed States in this capital that at 2
o'clock in the Afternoon the cities of
Panama and Colon would be occupied
by the military forces of the canal
zone, on the pretext of maintaining
public order. l protest against this
interference, which violates the SOW

THRIFT QUOTA
OF COUNTY IS
100000 over
Aggregate Sales of $685.
900 Reported, and Pledges
Are Still Coming in.

With aggregate sales of more than
$1,057,000, up to noon, Saturday,
Wayne county has attained its quota
in the War Savings campaign and has
an excess of more than 100000.
Saturday noon the committee was
still being swamped with pledge cards
that were delivered through the mails
and for this reason the committee
what the final total will be.
Under instructions from the State
committee pledge cards may be mail
ed in up to Monday night and the
sums received from this source will be
counted in the final totals. 1t is
reasonable to expect, however, that
the county's quota of $945,000 will be
oversubscribed by at least $150,00O.
Wayne county is the first county Of
equal size in Indiana to go over the
top and in the matter of percentage
stood first last night.
Joseph H. Mills, county chairman,
Friday night received a telegram from
the state director of sales, congratu-
lating him and Wayne county on the
success of the campaign.
Patriotic Spirit Shown
Chairman Mills modestly declined to
accept any credit for the success at
tanned, declaring that the quota Of
county was reached because of the
patriotic spirit shown by the citizens
generally and also as a result of the
unselish and untiring efforts of the
solicitors in all townships and the city
of Richmond
''It has been a real pleasure to work
with such an enthusiastic lot of men, "
said Chairman Mills. when things
looked a little blue and some rather
hard tasks were laid out by me for the
ward and township chairmen. there
was no rebellion. They simply went
to it and the solicitors never shirked.
The pledge cards sent through the
mails have been returned in large
numbers and this one phase of the
campaign was responsible for the big
gain during the last week.
LAS we are required to account for
cards sent out, we will of course re-
ceive many Saturday and Monday that
as yet have not been returned. Our
grand total may show that Wayne
county, which has never had a war
failure, will be at the very top in In
diana in the matter of percentage"

(By Associated PreSs.)


WASHINGTON, June 29-Rejection
tension of the draft ages to 20 and 40
years paved the way for passage by
the senate today of the $12,000,000,-
900 army appropriation bill.
The long discussion over the ex-
tension of the draft ages, which was
considered unnecessary by Secretary
Baker and General March, chief of
staff, in statements made before the
senate military committee, was ended
by an adverse vote of 49 to, %. The
debate on the Fall amendment as
well as on similar amendments offer
ed by Senator Hardwick of Georgia,
and by Senator Weeks, of Massachu-
setts, indicated that the majority of
members prefer to postpone all eff
forts to extend the draft ages until
the new army program. promised by
Secretary Baker, is submitted.
The appropriation bill, as it stood
for passage today contains several
important senate amendments. The

FLAG IN INDIANA

More than 100 members of the Pal
ladium staff, including the carrier
boys. will march in the Fourth of July
parade next Thursday, carrying the
largest American flag in the state Of

feet.
The flag will stretch across Main
street in the line of march, and will
follow an exhibit for the French war

the patriotic and liberal spirit dis
played by Richmond people, who have
adopted more than 100 French war or
phans and are providing for their
care,
People along the line of march will
be asked to drop their spare nickels,
dimes and quarters in the flag, and
this money will be used for the

LARGEST BUDGET IN

(By Associated Press

WASHINGTON, June 29-The army
appropriation bill carrying S12,0S9.-
600, ,000-the largest single budget in
world history-was passed today by
the senate without a roll call, Much
important legislation was added by
the senate but no change was made

In disposing of amendments prep

rejected As to 10 an amendment pro-
posing to specifically direct the
president to raise an army of 5 mil

transportation could be provided.
Many senators declared, however,
that the vote did not really represent
opposition in congress to any army of
such size and that sentiment for
great expansion as soon as war de-

Deny That Kaiser's Flag
Will Appear in Parade

Emphatic denial was given Satur-
day to a report that the German flag
would be carried in the Fourth of
July parade by American citizens of
German extraction.
Henry Bode. member of the COM
mittee, said only the American flag
and the colors of the Allies were to
be used, and that the rumor was
groundless. No suggestion of carry
ing the Kaiser's banner ever had been
made in the committee meetings, he
said
No one knows where the report was
started or for what purpose the rumor
was circulated. The presence of men
of German descent in the pa rade is
in complete harmony with the pro-
clamation Of President Wilson calling
on citizens of foreign extraction to
unite on July Fourth in a demonstra-
ton showing that the descendants of
the immigrants are backing the gov
ernment
