General Hodges Letter

innocent letters from home. The sol
der receives such a letter, gets home
sick or blue" and decides to leave,
with or without permission. After he
arrives at his home, he begins to re.
alize what his action means and he
decides to stay. Desertion III time of
war is punishable by the death pen
atty. Deserters from this Division
are sentenced to confinement in the
federal peniteftiary for long terms,
ranging from ten to twenty-five years.
If mothers. wives and sweethearts
could be made to understand what
misery and disgrace they may bring
upon their loved ones by writing
such letters, | am sure they would
send messages Of good cheer in
stead Of those which will make the
son, husband or sweetheart down
cast and homesick.
If the people of Arkansas. Louist-
ana and Mississippi would realize
IE
that every letter written a soldier
making him feel that things were not
alright at home was the worst thing
for his welfare, | believe they would
stop sending such messages. / know
this section Of the country and feel
that in no other part is patriotism
greater and pride nor pronounced.
History shows that the enlisted men
OF this division come from fighting
stock, for they are the descendants
of those efficient and daring sol
diers who followed Beauregard, Dick
Taylor, Barksdale, Pat Claiborne,
Pike, Marmaduke, Van Dorm, Charles
Clark and other famous leaders dur
ing the stirring days of the sixties.
These facts show me there is nj in
tention on the part of the folks at
home to deter the progress of the
army. On the other hand, I realize
that the fondness held for the men
caose their relatives and friends at
home to desire to see them. To com
ply with this desire the men take i'm
possible chances and as a result get
into serious trouble. | believe that
when these conditions are realized,
these messages of gloom will cease
to be sent.
Records of the camp courts demon
Istrate the havoc that is being played
by these appeals of parents, wives,
sisters and sweethearts. They show
that six out of seven of the men
found guilty of being absent with
out leave and sentenced to strenu-
Gus, degrading and eve punish
ment testified in their trials that they
were prompted to leaae their com
mands by pitiful appeals from their
homes. Had such letters not been
written, these boys. instead of being
prisoners guarded by armed men at
their heels, would be happy soldiers
of the Division going diligently about
their work.
/ appeal to the governors OF Louis
lana. Arkansas and Mississippi to
see that this matter is brought to the
attention of their people.
Thanking you in advance for your
consideration. Of this matter, and
with sentiments Of highest personal
esteem, / am,
Very sincerely,

Ernie" was one of the most will
ing. quiet and unassuming studs
at Tech and his sudden death came
as a shock to his classmates and
chums who mourn his loss. The
student body as we'll as the Tech
faculty regarded him as a depend
able student, whom they could tely
upon.
During the past football season
he was on the Island daily, working
for a berth on the eleven. He was a
hard worker and earned the position
Of first substitute. In one of the
Tech second teams hardest contests
he requested the Maroon quarter
back to send every play through his
tackle position. Opening up holes
for the Tech backs, a dozen sue
cessive plays put the ball within the
shadow of Lewistown High schools
goal posts in the second half. Ernie
earned his ''T' as a member of the
Tech teams war canoe team that
won the Kipona race two years ago.
This afternoon members of the
junior class held a special meeting
at which committees were appoint
ed TO take action on his death. Ar
rangements for the funeral services

against the forces of brutality and a
cry of conscience against the greed

of the churches is to keep the ma
tion up to the level of its high pur-
pose when entering the war. No
nation has ever entered war with
more holy purpose. The churches
must keep the war to the end holy

the memory of the heroic dead"
Instead of having hunger at one
end and surfeit at the other, said the
Premier, there was a fair distribu-
ton among all classes and ranks. He
added:
