SEICHEPREY FIGHT
REVEAL VALOR
OF S.SOLDlERS
Americans Engaged in Their
Hardest Fight Of the War
Displayed Great Goodness
and Heroism.
(By the Associated Press)

With American Army in France,
April 23.-The shell-torn village of
seicheprey, around which centered
the hardest fighting in connection
with the recent heavy German attack
on American positions, appears to be
destined to hold proud place in the
story of American participation in the
world war. AS further details Of the
engagement become known there are
disclosed deeds which are fully in ac-
cord with the highest American ira
ditions.
The correspondent is now permit
ted to tell of a few cases of individual
heroism, which will convey an idea
as to the mettle of the men. One Of
them, David Griggs, of East Hamp-
ton, Conn, passed through the enemy
barrage at least seven times to carry
ammunition to his hard-pressed COM
rades. Twice he was partly buried
by earth upturned by shells falling all
around him, but he kept at his task.
Griggs, who is 19 years old, was SO
modest that he would not tell his
story. but insisted on speaking of the
bravery of others. Finally, one of his
comrades pointed him out and said:
"That is the bravest man in the
regiment"
Raymond "A. Ferris of Medford,
Mass, courier, was blown off the
road twice by the conclusion of
shells. Although stunned and nearly
crazed by the intensity of the gun
fire when he reached a point in the
rear of the lines to which he was sent
for ammunition, he carried out his or
ders. Then he asked for a revolver,
saying he wanted to go out and fight
the Germans. but he tainted from ex-
haustion. When he regained con-
sciousness, his first words we're an
inquiry as to whether his message had
been delivered.
Charles Singler, Philadelphia
lawyer, who is now with the Red
Cross and was in the thick of the
fighting, told the correspondent today
of two Americans who, armed only
with automatic pistols, charged an
enemy machine gun, killed eight Ger
mans and captured the gun. 1t is
also related that one American sharp
shooter killed fifteen Germans.

of the U. S. Railroad administration,
says:
Please give very wide publicity to

closed, and emphasize the fact that
the Act of Congress, approved March
21st, provides that no process, mesne
or final; should be levied against pro-
perty under such federal control.
This means that judgments can
only be paid when payment is pro-
vided for by the director general. If
persons insist on suing in spite of
this order, no provision will be made
for. the payment of judgments unless
the suits are brought in conformity
with the order"
