March From the Battery,
Where Americans and
III.
French Greeted Them

New York, that had held out its
hand and beloved mighty words of
greeting to all of its allies in Europe
yesterday welcomed as brothers in
arms 435 fighting men from the under
side Of the world--Anzac troops en-
route for Europe who halted here to
aid the French chasseurs in giving
fresh impetus to the Liberty Loan.
The men of Australia and New Zea
land, mates of the splendid fighters
trenches at Gallipoli and are now driv
ing the Turk north from Jerusalem,
landed at the Battery yesterday morn
ing-tall, long limbed, deep chested
fellows, their faces burned brick red
by the Southern sun, under their
cooked campaign hats, and their walk,
a long easy stride.
New York Cheers New Flag
They brought with them q flag that
has never before futtered through New
York streets, grown accustomed during
SAC AoSt yS0A w CeAohSV OuAHOACS SCS
the crowds that filled the sidewalks and
windows as they marched up Broadway
to City Hall shouted as loudly as
though the five stars of the Southern
Cross, emblazoned on the red ground,
were an old and much loved emblem.
The men of the Australian New Zea-
land Army Corps, from which the title
"Anzac" is derived, also brought to the
city something else that New York had
never heard before, though the Turks
and the Prussians dread it-with rea-
son.
This was the strange battle cry-the
old-time hail of the settler on the
plains of a-"Coo-o-o-eel,'
1t sounded first at the Battery. There,
as the big lean men tramped ashore,
three battalions of coast artillery and
the platoon of "Blue Devils" were
drawn up to greet them.
Greet by Roar of Cheers
For several minutes the "vive" Of
the French warriors, the strange, hoot-
ing shout of the strangers, and the
"ya-a-a-ay" of American civilians and
soldiers rose in a mighty roar.
The first spontaneous outburst over,
the Americans cheered the Anzacs, the
Anzacs responded and added an extra
burst from the sturdy line Of blue clad

tillery.

Anzacs tramped into City Hail Park
and were greeted by Mayor Hylan, who
surrendered to them the keys Of the
city.
Replying to the welcome, Colonel
Fethers spoke briefly, expressing deep
feeling at the greeting which he and
his men had received and hailing

Broadway. Always a roar of greeting
preceded and followed them, and now
and again the weird Australian cry
pierced through the racket. No one
would have believed that there were so
many from the island continent in the
city. Mainly the call came from wom-
en-, most of whom wore black as an evil
dence of what they had done for their
faraway home.
GallipOli Veterans in Column
At Fourteenth Street the brown col
umn swung into the Avenue. From
there north the thoroughfare gave posi-
tive proof of the fact that it had now
worn itself out with the noisy greet
ings it had bestowed on Pershing's and
Petain's men earlier in the week.
Four times the line halted, while loan
workers pointed to the brawny men who
had travelled half way round the world
to do their bit, and asked the crowd
what they intended to do in the face of
such sacrifice.
In the column, here and there, could
be seen man with the letter "a" on
his sleeve. They were members of the
original Anzac Corps, invalided home
and now returning to France to sec it
through. All three captains of the
battalion. F. Mccall. r. LIE Scout and
A. M. Douglas, saw service at Gallipoll.
At Forty-eighth Street the men
turned west again to Broadway and
tramped to Columbus Circle, where
they lunched at Reisenweber's, while
Harvard Club. They then marched
downtown again to the Hippodrome,
where Miss Annette Kellermann, her.
self an Australian, made the address of
welcome.
Campaign Hat Brings $4,000.
In the Liberty Loan drive that fol-
lowed her speech, campaign hat, be-
longing to W. A. Bill, who was wounded
three times in Gallipoli and France,
was auctioned off. 1t was purchased by
l.. M. Picabia, who bid $4,000 in Liberty
bonds for it. Mr.. Picabia returned the
hat to Miss Kellermann afterward with
the request that she auction it at the
evening performance.
Several Of the men in the contingent
have grown old in the service. Cor
poral Joe Baxter has fought in the
Egyptian campaign of 1882, was in
Soudan with Kitchener, and the South
African war. He won the Distinguished
Service Medal in the last named con-
flict.
Sergeant Frank Leaver has forty
six out of forty-seven male relatives
in the service. The forty-seventh is
an invalid. He himself fought in
Beluchistan and spent eight years in
the British navy.
To-day the Anzacs will spend their
time in sightseeing and in campaigning
for the loan. Through the Guaranty

Broadway Stars Aid Loan

1t was a Liberty Loan night al.
Reisenweber's restaurant last night.
Broadway's mimic stars were there, Al
Jolson, Helen Ware, Nat c. Goodwin,
Bessie Mccoy Davis, Joan Sawyer,
Fannie Brice, Harry Fox. Irene and
Constance Farber. Alice King, Helen

Liam Lorraine, Ann Pennington and
many others.
The entire receipts of the evening
were given over by the management to
the purchase of Liberty bonds. and
this, together with the sale of bonds
inspired by the stars, amounted to al
most 100000.

out any formality. An automobile from
the institution followed the men until
they reached the Hippodrome, giving
them an exchange considerably above
the current rate. In all, the Anzacs
had about $4,000 American money.

Secretary Baker brings back from
France a new explanation Of the term
Sammy, generally applied to our
troops aboard.
When the American first landed on
on the other side, he says, they were
met everywhere with shouts of viva

and mos Amis" (our friends). The
first Of these greetings was Ineligible
enough to any of the newcomers,
however ignorant OF French. But the
second was puzzler. Pronounced mo
Fanny, with emphasis on the "zam-
my, it sounded more like Sammy"
than anything else. Our boys took it
for that, and thus the name came into
general use
Most Americans have assumed that
the name was adapted from Uncle

any event, by the fact that it suggest

WHEN WILL 1T END?

II may be rash to attempt any ans
wer to the great question uppermost
in mems minds for nearly four years,
oWhen will the war end?" So many
guesses have proved wrong. But the
decisive factors are now fewer in num-
Der, and better known; and the chanc-
es of figuring right, or guessing right,
are better than ever before.
A British war correspondent, W.
Beach Thomas, now in this country
gives an answer which is rather con-
vincing. lie doesn't expect any great
change in the position of the battle
front, from now on until the end. There
will be oscillations, he says, victories
and defeats at this and that spot it
will be a battle that really means
something, "a symptomatic defeat and
victory from which any observer,
whether he is seer or no, will he
able to deduce with some certainty
the progressive decline Of one side or
the other"
On that significant day, who will be
the victor, and who the vanquished?
It is inconceivable to the mind of any
leaders among the Allies, he says, that
the progressive decline" indicated by
such a defeat can come to them while
America, with her 100,O00,00O people
and resources that defy arithmetic, is
heart and soul in the cause Neither
is il conceivable to any Of us.
That symtomatic defeat will come
to the Cenral Powers. And it will
make it unnecessary for us to fight on
and drive the Germans out of Belgium
and France and beyond the Rhine
Germany will not wait neither her
population nor her army authorities
will permit it till she tumbles back in
failures upon her own from
tiers, and the targets for the growing
hOrdes Of airmen come nearer and
nearer and the boom Of the Liberty
Engine at last plays foreign music
over German cities" Germany will
recognize defeat, and make quickly
the best terms she can.
And when will that be? Next year,
replies Mr. Thomas. The decisive
battle may be expected in the spring
or summer, and4 thA CentraL4 peweEs>

JUDGE BAR1!NE TO
RUN FOR CONGRESS
CHAIRMAN OF STATE RAILROAD
COMMISSION ANNOUNCES
CANDIDACY

Judge Fl. F. Bartine of Carson
has announced his candidacy for
the nomination for member of con-
gress on the democratic ticket.
Judge Bartine is one of the best
known democrats in this state, and
has probably been as much before
the public, and handled as many
public affairs as any man in his
party. His announcement places
two democrats in the field. C. r.
Evans of Esmeralda county being
the other candidate heard from.
At the present Judge Bartine is
acting chairman of the state rail-
way commission. His fight for the
adjustment of the short and long
haul on railroads has been a factor
in the conduct of the commission.
The fact that he has formerly
served Nevada in the house of rep
resentatives his friends in his party
figure will give him precedence.
The judge has announced that he
will make an active campaign for
the nomination.-Carson News.

Great Soda Plant Burned

Fire a few days ago completely
destroyed the 100000 plant at
Keller of the Natural Soda Pro-
ducts company. The blaze was dis
covered at noon, but it had gain
ed such Roadway in the warehouse
where it originated that the $50
employees of the company could not
check it and the entire plant was
burned to the ground in three
hours, with the exception of the
high-concentrate and kiln plant.
The factory was at Keller, on the
eastern shore of Owens lake, and
had recently been doubled in capa-
city and was turning out large war
orders for the government. The
loss was entirely covered by insur-
ance and reconstruction will start
at once.

SUBSTITUTES FOR
SPRUCE ARE
SOUGHT
OTHER LIGHT WOODS BEING
USED IN AIRPLANE
BUILDING

WASHINGTON, d. c., July G.
A policy now effective in American
airplane production is that of sup
plementing spruce wood supply by
using selected timber of other more
widely distributed varieties. 1t is
said hat exhaustive tests made by
the forest service, followed by ex-
periments in construction, have
proved that requisite qualifications
of strength and lightness for air
plane building are possessed in
varying degree by other woods,
notably white pine, and that under
orders of John d. Ryan, head of
the Aircraft Board, use of them was
Immediately decided upon.
1t is not intended, the technical
men say, to displace the invaluable
but somewhat inaccessible spruce
with the other woods except in
making the fuselage, finishing the
body, and building up sections of
the structure like the landing struts,
where the strains and stresses of
progress against air resistance do
not center. Spruce will still consti-
tute the material for wing spars,
struts, between planes and similar
sections where these stresses dc
center.
Airplane specifications have been
thoroughly overhauled in recent
weeks, it is also said, in al effort
to eliminate requirements of ex-
t%raordinary structural strength and
fineness of material in non-strain
bearing sections, whether made OF
wood or of metal, which has ham
pered production and raised pro-
blems of raw material supply which
have been more or less unsolvable
in view of the quantity of machines
desired.
Much of this has only been pos
sible because of the building during
the past year, which has furnished
an experience upon which to de-
velop innovations. A policy of Off
cial secrecy concerning all details
to the airplane program is still in
effect.

PHILADELPHIA, July 5. = The
king of the barnyard, the rooster,
has been consigned to the dinner
pot by the fOod administration
here. He is a nuisance in the
summer and interferes with the
work of the egg factory, says the
food administration. Fertile eggs
are more likely to spoil in the sum-
mer. One-quarter of all the eggs
produced during hot weather are
spoiled; 40 per cen lose much of
their food value.
"A doubtful egg is a bad egg,"
said Senator Ingalls, long ago, and
SC the food administration is on
the trail of the doubtful" eggs. 1t
is hoped that spoilage can be re-
duced this summer with a onse-
Quent saving to consumer and in
creased profits to dealers by killing
ROSTERS, better Gambling and better
handling.

Floods Kill Fish

The state fish and game warden
has received a letter from the
deputy warden of Humboldt coun-
ty saying that recent floods and
slides in that county killed thou
sands of fish. Huge boulders roll
ed down hillsides into the small
mountain streams and the fish were
crushed and washed onto the banks.
The deputy asked for fish to re-
stock the streams.
