Cruisers Survivors Reach
New York; Best Traditions
of Navy Were Maintained

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, July 2o.-AI the sur
vivors Of the cruiser San Diego. said
to number more than eleven hundred.
have arrived in New York. They
were brought In during the night on
rescuing ships from the scene of the
destruction of the cruiser.
Some Of the survivors were report
ed to have debarked at Hoboken and
transferred to tugs. which took them
to the navy yard in Brooklyn. Others
were transferred to tugs down the
harbor and also brought to the navy
yard. 1t was said
omcal information at the navy
fused, and no civilians were allowed
access to the survivors. Many in
Quiries received at newspaper ofdces
from relatives and friends Of those
supposed to be on board the cruiser
could not be answered
This cruiser sank rapidly and disap-
peared fifteen minutes after the flrst
explosion. 1t went down SO rapidly.
according to survivors. that hun
dreds of the crew did not have time
to get to boats and were forced to
where they clung to improvised RATS
until picked up by lifeboats.
Magnificent Discipline.
All agreed that the discipline on
board the warship was magnificent
and worthy Of the best traditions of
the Navy. The quartermaster. ac-
cording to survivors. remained at his
post until 1t was too late to save
himself or be saved and calmly sa-
luted. hundreds of his comrades as
he went down with the ship. A jackie
climbed the mast and rescued the
preserved, was brought ashore in one
Of the small boats at Point O'Woods.
Immediately after the accident great
naval activity was observable. which
seemed to strengthen the report that
the San Diego had been the victim OF
patrol boats and airplanes were sre-
ported to be taking part in what
| seenfed to be a search for undersea
craft. Sounds Of heavy firing at sea
were heard by residents of various
points on Long Island last night. Re-
ports were in circulation that other
spins had been attacked. but there
has been no verification of these
Fire Island, where the San DIEGO
was sunk, is about ten miles OF the
south shore Of Long Island and about
ffty miles east Of the entrance Of
New York harbor. A lighthouse on

That another visit from submarines
Off this coast had been expected by
NAVY officials became known when it
was learned that during the past few
jdays masters Of coastwise vessels have
received orders to take a course that
would keep them AZ close to shore as
safety would permit.

These went back and forth steadily
Other trucks went from place to

Village Is Destroyed.

Missy-Aux-Bois was deserted by
the French peasants before the Ger
mans came, the village having been
torn from end to end by ehellflre in,
previous fighting. Not one wall or
any stone buildings are standing. The
only living things in the village,
which is now within the ailied lines,
on the fragments Of the steepie Of
the village church during the roar Of
the battle. They few around in
circles in bewilderment. returned to
their roosting place and then dew
around again.
Aux-Bois are two other deserted vii
lagos, in one Of which every building
is in ruins. The fields in this section
are covered with grain ready for the
harvest. Many rusty tools and inn
plements are standing Just whore they
were left when the alarm came.
Maintain Their Advance.
When darkness settled over the bat-
tlefield the Americans still maintained
their advance. The guns in the rear
were pounding away. guarding them
through the night.
No resistance was encountered at
vierzy or in the neighborhood villages
taken.
At two villages on the southern por-
ton Of the line the hands Of the
clocks had been stopped by she'll IRE
at 4:45 o'clock. indicating the time the
allies had started their bombardment
ON Thursday morning.
One of the greatest surprises tor
the Americans in the opening Of the
ofrensive was the flight Of the Ger
mans before the attack. The Ameri-
cans, many Of whom were going over
the top for the frst tffne. were fully
prepared for . stiff light, and a. the
hours went on without . German
counter blow they began to wonder
whom the enemy would retaliate.
Among the slightly wounded men In
the American dressing station was
one lad. who left Chicago school
to Join the Army. This youth had
been wounded In the leg soon after
the start Of the attack and his chief
worry seemed to be that his COM
srades who had gone on would fear he
should be killed.
The advance was one Of the best or.
ranixed the allies ever attempted. the
system working wonderfully well
from one end Of the limo to the other.
Tho machine gun defense OF the Ger-
mans was feeble and was quickly o..
ienced, the Germans falling hack upon

A still larger number are loyalty,

says.

the provost marshal general says
plainly. there remain enormous num-
bers. represented in every local board
area. who are neither willing nor in

proper degree.
Moreover, the family surroundings
often tend to emphasize this condi-
tion; family sentiments affect the
drafted man, and may make him less
ready to go. All this is especially
true In the cities where foreign-born
populations abound
Further, camp surgeons report that
the mans mental attitude affects his
physical condition. Any one of a score
Of small ailments may develop into a
wrong mental attitude, or may become
negligible IL the man has the will and
