Money For Germans; Little Tor
Americans

Fontanelle-An investigation has
been carried on here the past two
days by State Agent Roscoe Saun-
ders of Manila. assisted by l.. H.
Pine, of Atlantic, to determine the
substance of several charges of dis
loyalty lodged against residents of
Fontanelle and vicinity.
The investigation did not result
in finding sufficient grounds for the
prosecution of any person. How
ever it was found mat one of the
local church congregations had been
very backward in the support of the
several war funds. although the ag-
gregate wealth of the members of
the congregation is several million
dollars. Several thousands of dol
lars had been subscribed to a Ger
man fund similar 10 the American
Red Cross. but little or nothing had
been subscribed to the Red Cross
or the Y. M. c. A. funds.
Several specific chargCs of dis
loyalty were on investigation found
to be unfounded.
Mr.. Pine assisted State Agent
Saunders on request of state Off

severance OF the last German artery
to that sector Of the front. Summar-
izing the allied successes since the in
augurating of the forward movement.
he pointed out that the Germans have
been driven Ga miles further from
Paris and territory they occupy in
France has been reduced from 10000
square miles to less than $500. Il.
The American first army under
General ePrshing has advanced 80
miles in the last eight days.
General March characterized the
publishing of the erroneous announce.
mont of the armistice "as very bad
for the military program of the Unit
ed States"
For instance, he said; in New York,
the stevedores who were engaged IN
loading supplies for the expeditfonary
forces stopped work and did not re-
turn at all on that day or next day
and army shipments of food were thus
delayed.
In commenting on this incident. he
made the statement that the Ameri-
can army would be in France for
some time even when peace is de-
clared. s.
