Proud; Believes War Viii End in 1920, but Is Told

Washington, Aug. 2S.-Back from
the war-torn fields of France, with
an overwhelming admiration for the
American soldier in general and for
the Pennsylvania soldier In particu-
lar, and filled with a supreme conf
dence in the justice of the cause and
its eventual victory, Representative
M. Clyde Kelly, of Pittsburgh, re-
turned to Washington to-day. Sail
ing from the United States on July 4,
he spent the better part of two
months visiting the battlefields and
getting a closeup view of the war.
For hours he was under fire in the
Marne offensive; equipped with gas
mask and helmet he visited the dug
cuts of the officers and men of the
old Eighteenth Pennsylvania Regi-
ment. now the One Hundred Elev-
enth Regiment of the Twenty
eighth Division in the first-line
trenches. And he has come home
with an abiding confidence that in
1920 the world will see an end of
this war and a permanent peace
established.

The Germans will fight to the end
and so we shall have to go on until
they are conquered decisively. Not
a man with whom l talked during
my visit abroad wants the war to
end until it ends right, with the de-
feat of the Hun and the riddance to
the world of that disturbing influ-
ence which has caused all this suf-
fering.
Upon landing in France I started
at once on a search for the One
Hundred Eleventh Regiment, the old
Eighteenth. And every time 1 made

ward the front. 1 kept moving for

up on the front line, occupying the
point furthest north of any COM
mand, right in the thick of the fight

of Pennsylvania soldiers in every
war this country has engaged in.
In the Dugouts
The, Pennsylvania boys had just
captured a German prisoner and had
him in their dugout, where they eX-
hibited him with great pride. He
had been shot through the leg, but
was not badly wounded. He spoke
broken English and told the boys he
was tired of war, having been in the
service two years. He volunteered
to help the Americans in any way
he could, ands he was put at first
aid dressing.
The One Hundred Eleventh Reg

July and 6 and were in the front
line of the attack fully thirty days.
Without any rest or respite to speak
of, and many of them being unable
even to remove their clothes in all
that time, they fought uncomplain-
ingly and with marvellous effect.
Then they were given four days in
the rest billets and after that back

After a long elimination the contest
finally settled down to two bands,
the Blue Jacket band of Newport
News, composed entirely of sailors
enlisted in the Navy, and the local
organization. The judges had great
difficulty in determining the better
band. They were required to play
some selections three or four times.
Being unable to judge it was decided
TO give each band some selection it
had never seem The Harrisburg band
played these with great credit and
after a long parley the judges de-
cided to call the contest a draw and

Mother Refuses to
Shelter a Deserter

COnnellsyille, Pa, Aug. 2S.-
Refused shelter by his patriotic
mother, Arthur Lankey, of Acme,
in the mountains near here, a de-
serter from Camp Lee, hid in the
woods near his home for more
than month before he was ar
rested by Federal agents yester-
day. Lankey trembled with fear
when arrested in a barn. When
arraigned for a preliminary hear
ing, Lankey said he had deserted
because he was afraid of death.
He said he went to the home of
his mother after leaving Camp
Lee, but she refused to give him
shelter when he told her he had
deserted. He is six feet tall and
weighs IT'S pounds.

HUNS OPENLY
JEER OFFICERS
By Associated Press

With the British Army in
France, Aug. 2S.-One small
British formation alone captured
two complete n German field
batteries since yesterday. The
capture of these light batteries
is very significant. The Germans
ran for their lives when the Brit
ish suddenly appeared close to
them. and did not even make an
effort to save their guns.
The enemy machine gunners
have shown a similar spirit, their
principal idea apparently now be-
ing to save themselves, If that is
possible.
German soldiers also have be-
gun to exhibit the greatest con-
tempt for their own officers and
are carrying their feelings right
into the prisoners cages. In a
number of cages into which thou
sands are pouring, the German
soldiers have gone out of their
way to be extremely insolent to
their officers. jeering at them and
loudly proclaiming their views in
no uncertain manner.

and stood threatening it's capital. At
no TING has that army been more
powerful and menacing than when,
on July 10. it struck again to destroy
in one great battle the brave men
opposed to it and to enforce it's bru-
tai will upon the world and civiliza-
ton.
Three days later, in conjunction
with our allies, you counterattacked.
The allied armies gained a brilliant
victory that marks the turning point
of the war. You did more than to
give the allies the support to which
as a nation, our faith was pledged.
You proved that our altruism,, our
pacific spirit and our sense of justice
have not blunted our virility or our
courage.
You have shown that American
initiative and energy are as fit for
the tasks of war as for the pursuits
of peace. You have justly won un-
stinted praise from our allies and the
eternal gratitude of our countrymen.
I'VE have paid for our success with
the lives of many of our brave COM
rades. We shall cherish their MEM
ory always and claim for our
history and literature their bravery,
achievement and sacrifice.
