SLAVS TAKE HEART
FROM AMERICAN AID
Announcement of Secretary Lans.
ing Causes Rejoicing Among
Race in the United States.

The announcement made Friday by
Secretary Lansing. in which he stated
that the United States desires that
siav races be liberated from German
and Austrian rule. has caused gen
eral rejoicing among the Czecho-S Slovaks
nnd Jugo-Slavs Of this country.
The decided stand taken by the gov
arnment has eliminated all misap-
pfehension concerning the interpreta-
the State Department on May 20.
when 1t said that 1t was interested
in the movement for freedom sought
by the oppressed races of Austria
Hungary and that "the nationalistic
aspirations Of the Czecho-Slovaks and
Jugo-Slav for freedom have the earn
ct sympathy of this government"
When the announcement of May 20
was made Austrian and German
propa gandists in this country and
abroad declared that the United
States was not friendly to the Slav
races. and all that it could offer in
the fight of those races for freedom
aganda is said to have had its effect
after a fashion on the races involved
and to have created a feeling of de-
preston among large numbers of
Czecho-Slovaks and Jugo-Slavs
However, the announcement of last
week, in which the United States
made clearer it's position in the mat
ter. has removed the idea and has
caused to be cemented more closely
together the Slav races and the
United States

Says Hun Plays "Dirty Game"

You can't realize what a dirty
game the Hun plays until you get in
the front line trenches" Smith went
on. But they depend on their gas,
which they can shoot over at US and
trust to luck and the wind. However,
they don't get as many as they think
they do, and in return we get more
Of them with our gas"
Smith enlisted in the National Guard
in 1915, and served on the Mexican
border. He was in the advertising
business before going to France.
Evening star., 1918-06-30

Private Paul F. Smith, former mem-
Der of the District National Guard.
who went to France with the Rain
bow Division, was "gassed" by the
Germans In a recent attack on the
western front and is now in hos
pital somewhere behind the lines.
In letter to his mother. Mrs. Cath
crime A. Smith. "a street northwest,
the young soldier tells strange
story of having dreamed of the gas
attack the night before it occurred.
81 woke up the morning of the day
we were gassed." wrote Smith, land
l told the fellows in the dugout with
me what dream I had had. and /
swear if the dream didn't come true
that night to T. and all the fellows
are here in the hospital with me and
they cannot get over how true my
dream came
Praises Red Cross Nurses.
1t is apparent from the date on the
letter that Smith was gassed about
the middle of May. 81 don't know
how long I will be in the hospital"
the letter continued. but 1 will never
forget the great care and attention Of
the officers and dear Red Cross nurses.
They do not let you want for any
thing and there is nothing they won't
do for you. and the work they are
doing is great. Our battles in the
trenches are hard, but 1 don't think
they are any worse or more tiresome
than the battles they put up to save
our lives and to help us when we are
brought in back of the lines"
Smith commented upon the opera
tions of German U-boats of the
American coast by saying that "it is
a Dutch joke" for Germany to mag
inc that America can be frightened
by such ventures.
