.SAMMIES IN FRANCE
 REFUTE STORIES OF IMMORAL CONDUCT
Article in "Stars and Stripes" Pleads for the Con- fdence of the Folks Back Home Against
 PrO-German Tales.

ent of an internationally known daily newspaper, whose business it is to get facts and to report them accurately, adds this:
 T was in the only town of any size in the whole area occupied by the troops referred to on the night when they were first paid off in France The majority of these men received from two to three months pay, totaling in many cases $10O or more The streets were crowded with soldiers buying up everything in sight, from candy and chocolate to clothing, butts the ab- solute truth did not see a single drunken soldier; while the provost guard records show the smallest num- Der of arrests. Since then I have seen good deal of the troops referred to as Northeastern as a result of which can unhesitatingly state that if the troops training in the United States conduct themselves as well, they're doing nobly."
 Officer Praises Men. Finally, the commanding officer of this same body of men-and our com manding officers are our severest crit ics and also our only really competent ones-volunteers this, by the way of clinching the argument:
 '1 never knew any army garrison in the United States before the war to have anything like so good record i AS to conditions in general, both allied and neutral military observers ] have expressed themselves as aston ished at the remarkably good behav-
 for of this army of yours. The world | does move. Armies no longer live by | forage, loot and pillage, but even al that, this pay-as-you-go, behave-as- you-go American army has been a revelation to our European allies. | Take it all in alI these American
 expeditionary forces constitute ar
 army which is in every way a worthy
 successor to the first army of liberty
 whose commandant was George Wash
 ington. It is proud of it's heritage
 proud of you people at home who are supporting it and who are backing ii
 with your labor, your money, you1
 hopes, and your prayers, proud of the 1 government that sped it on it's way
 overseas, proud of the cause for which l 1t is fighting-the greatest cause which any army was ever called upon tC l champion. It would rather rot under the soil of France than to do anything
 which would cast discredit on the
 homes it left, which would impugn ir
 any way the good name of the great | people from whom it was recruited. ] Bear all this in mind, good people
 back in Gods country, if you hear any
 more stories about us made up out | of the same whole cloth. If by any
 chance any of you should hesitate to believe us, write to our commanders
 our chaplains, our doctors-anybody
 in authority. They will back us to the
 limit-and we, for our part. will guar
 antee to come home to you clean in
 body, exalted in mind and heart, and
 with the record behind us of a mans
 size job manfully dQne-Kansas City Post.

THE MEDICATION OF DANIELS

CN ECRETARY DANIELS would be filled with pride as he 0 reads the report of the Congressional committee that investigated his department he not too busy for any paiOn except that of making the navy efficient tool in the hands of the American people,
 year he the most abused man in the United States
 Men that should have known better who spoke with out first hand knowledge and without evidence sandered es platforms newspapers and magazines and by the bit ter vuperation of private speech.
 Daniels ridicued called incompetent was describ- ed the laughing stock of the world, and object tempt to the and officers of the navy.
 The achievements of Daniels his simple worth his splen- did performance slenced sande hushed
 Now the report of the committee exhibits accomplishments in way that makes them plain.
 All the great appropriations made to his department been expended with caution and economy the navy the problems of submarine warfare with genius and success most without friction the ships and personnel of the navy been multiplied many fold Enough of everything provided except of hydropanes and these by that Daniels responsible for The hydropanes will be forthcoming in due

 In letter to the Danbury News Herr Emil Schock, for several wears modern languages instructor at ind sanford School and now with Min neapohs school, gently and at thd same time caustically ridicules thd Idea entertained by some Redding people according to his information that he is a German spy. It is al charge or rather a suspicion impos4 slble to disprove because it rests on no known facts to support it and anyone can exercise the liberty oA entertaining suspicious no matter how Enthusiastically improbable or baseless they may be. So that Herr Shoch, While plainly hurt and re- sentful through being pictured in so od1ous a light in a community where he was a prime favorite, contents himself with reminding folks that be IS not Prussian, but Swiss, that he fas taken out papers for United States citizenship, that he built and still owns a little home in Redding and that during his stay here his record as to propriety of conduct and use- fulness was such as to strongly noi1i- tate against the spy theory. What | then, he asks, does it rest unon Wholly, as far as he can learn. on his having occasionally been up late o' nights. Despite all this, those who cherish the suspicious so obnoxious to their subject will probably keep on cherlshtng them while admitting the absence of any real supporting evi- | dence.
 Granted. they will say, that Herr Schoch is talented and accomplishe ed -an artist, a musician, poet, play. wright, actor, possesses charmins manners and fairly exudes the milk Of human kindness-so much tbe more is likely to be a German SD, because the more brilliant and engag. ] Ing mans personality the greatel his capacity for success in the spy's detestable role. Of course there is nc reasoning against that kind of talk,
