SAILOR WANTS COURT WHERE
 KAISER LIVES
Bridgeport Boy Over There Has American Spirit and
 Wants to Fight On.

Among those who approve of the League of Nations is A. A. WyllieS a Bridgeport boy, in the service of the American Navy, now stationed in France.
 He says. 'srhe days of Potsdam are nearly over, and instead of a pal ace at Berlin we want an interna- tional court of nations, where all peo- ples and all countries will be repre- sented."
 Wyllie has the true sailor spirit of up and at them
 A A. wy1lie is former employe of the Bridgeport Hydraulic. company now in service at the American Naval Base abroad, and the answer can be summed up in three wprds---"On to Berlin"
 In a letter to Gerrie Treadwen of the Hydraulic company, Seaman Wyl- lie gives his opinions on the great Hun peace offensive.
 Wylhe Is a veteran in point of ser vice for the United States, having been with the American marines at Vera Cruz, and having served with the American patrol fleet in foreign waters during the present conflict. He was aboard J. P. Morgan's con- verted yacht, Corsair.
 The letter follows:
 October IA, 1918. "Friend Gerrie:
 "A few lines to let you know that haven't forgotten you, and that I am stilT alive and enjoying good health. I sincerely hope that this will find you and your family enjoying good health have been quite busy of late, in fact for the past three weeks, and I have let letter writing go. Well, Gerr1e. I see the Hun is beginning to squea1, and his squeal is heard from many quarters but we over here, hope that the Allies wifi not hear his cry for peace until our ar mics are in Berlin, and then let FHoch do the dictating.
 While the Boche's army stays unit ed this world is an unfit and unsafe place for people. so we ever here are unanimous in our demands for con- tinuation of war until we have brought home to the Kaiser what he s brought to Belgium, France and Rus sia and also Serbia and Runania. And then also, we must awenge our brave soldiers who have given their lives for the great cause. We realize what a great 'temptat1on is before the people and we hepe the people at home w1n show g stronger and firner determ1nation for a continuance of the war.
 Disaster and ruin is at the very door of Germany, and now the great war lord Is trying to escape 1t through a clever trick, That 1s what we make of their peace proposals. The days of Potsdam are nearly over, and instead of a palace at Berlin we want an in ternatlonal court of nations, where l all peoples and countries will be rep r resented,
 ,. S|'Anyone can see that Germany is not sincere in her request as the pill laging and destruction of French towns continues the sinking of ships carrying women and children goes on, so we say on with the war;
 Since July 21 the Boches have known that they were beaten. We have been looking for move like the present. one ever since, and we have waited for chance to say no, so a chance Is here and we must re sist the temptation that is before us Nothing will be gained at this time If we give the Kaiser a chance to ge his wits and breath collected, so W, must push on to Berlin. Anyone wht has witnessed what the Germans have done to France and Belgium woulc not want to quit now. They send threae with their proposal---that if tn, Allies won't accept they will resort tt the worst kind of warfare. Let then 1.-two can play at that game, ant what could they do that would be an, worse than what they have alreadI done? No, Geuie, this is no time fo peace talk. The time hasn't arrivet just yet.
 Well old friend, the news iron Bridgeport in regard to the Iabo troubles Is much better than 1t was and sincerely hope that 1t soon wi be all over as such news Is very ba for the boys in the trenches, It hurt their eyes, also their hearts, and
 hope we will receive no more like 1t,
 Well, l must close as it Is nea lunch hour, and besides I have writ ten quite a lot this time I hope thi finds everyone at the office in BOO health. Remember me to all I wi
