When the whole story Of this war
shall have been written Il will be in-
complete without a chapter about how
the American boys behaved in France.
The historian should get the material
for that chapter from the provost mar
shal. He is the chief of police, so
far as the Americans are concerned.
l am at present living with a regi-
ment stationed In a little French vii
lage where from time to time we can
hear the booming of the guns on the
battle front. keeping the boys always
reminded Of the direction In which
they are headed, writes a correspond
ent Of the New York Times. There
are few French folk In the place;
they moved to where 1t is safer. And
SO the Americans are pretty much In
control of the town, and incidentally,
there are about ten times as many
American soldiers here as there ever
were civilian Frenchmen and French
women. They are quartered In every
available house, and In some that
would not be available were 1t not that
they had to be.

of the provost marshal. His room is
better than mine; 1t has a bed. He
didn't know 1t was a bed until the
owner of the house put In a charge for
billets. Under the army plan, a room
with a bed In it costs one franc a day,
but If there is no bed the charge is
only 80 centimes. And so the provost
marshal knows he has a. bed to sleep
on and not a box. 1t says so in the
official records of the war department
of the United States. We were in

shall the other day and noticed a part
of the wall at one end was corrugated
steel. We pushed it up, and 10, there

Threat TO Burn Bed.


When we convinced him that unless
we got wood quickly the provost mar
shal's bed was going to be sacrificed
he changed his mind about the diff
Guilty and said that perhaps for five
francs Ii might be that someone a
some wood TO sell. He got the five
francs and two hours later ~reappeared
with three bundles of fagots, explain
ing his delay by saying that on the
way he had stopped to milk three
cows. We got the fire started ana
quickly saw hat at the rate the fagots
burned we were soon going TO be cold
again. We explained to the man OF
the house that we must have big pieces
of wood. He +, Piled that only the
cure had such wood, and that 1T was
impossible to buy wood from the cure,
and besides ii was Sunday. The pro-
vost marshal gave him ten francs and
told him to bring the wood. And he
did. / was sorry I didn't go along to
see how he got the wood from the cure
on Sunday, but the main point was
that he got 1t. The provost marshal
has dominion only over the misbe-
havior of Americans, and so 1t was
none of our affair how the man got
the wood.
But when 1t comes to Americans
this provost marshal is a very differ
ent man. He is a young first lieuten-
ant, and his home is In New YORK
city. He has told me that after the
war he is going to get out OF the army.
He hasn't said what he is going to
do, but / think he is training TO be a
rival of n William ]. Burns. He has
TO do some very nice detective work.
The American soldiers behave gen
orally like a lot of college boys In
their moments of relaxation, but IL Is
not to be supposed that they don't
break loose a bit at times. And be-
cause they do the provost marshal has
his hands full, and sometimes the lock-
up. AS college boys do, the soldiers
make 1t as difficult as possible for the
provost guard to obtain material Tor
conviction of violators of army rules.
II was eight o'clock in the morn
ing. The provost marshal was sleep
ing soundly, having got to bed at one
o'clock after his last round of the VIII
lage streets, which he found de-
serted of the regiments comedians"
as the trouble makers are called. There
was a loud rapping at his door
and the "Y" man entered to say that
early In the morning the Y. M. Y. A.
hut had been entered and n box OF
cigars and one baseball taken, ana
that the damage was 80 francs. he
asked that II would not happen again.
The lieutenant thanked him for the
information and sent for a corporal OF
the military police, and put him on
the case.

AMERICA IN THE wORLD.wAR
tBy Alfred f. koenig)

For more than three years tho
war has been raging. a world-war in
the true sense Of the word. The
laws Of the world seem to be stand
ing on their head. Things that were
held in check and should always
have been held in check have broken
loose and are now the order Of the
day. Hatred. fear. cruelties, atroci-
ties. and destruction reign supreme.
Unity, love. consideration, and peace
on earth have disappeared. We too,
citizens of this Countrywide
long have been spared active war
service,--we too have finally been
drawn into the eddy: and Christmas
of the year 1917. the festival of
peace and good will toward men.
found us in the world-conhagration,
prepared and ready to help put an
end to the confagration.
We, the citizens of this country,
were greatly surprised when the
war broke out in 1914. The Euro
pean nations may have sensed the
approaching storm. they may have
known about it. but to us such a
raging outbreak seemed impossible.

the real circumstances and condi-
tions existing that we not only had
fully worked out the outcome Of the
war, but we also thought ourselves
able to understand the causes and
reasons for the same so well, that
any other course or any other re-
port would have appeared to us vn-
just and untrue. Indeed, We no
longer felt ourselves Americana
each individual felt himself first of
all. by virtue Of his blood or extrac-
ton. related to the one or the other
European nation. This feeling had
been so strongly developed by q
nearly three-year period Of neutrali-
ty. that We were all liable to forget:
I'VE are neutral and no longer
Europeans: WE ARE AMERI-
CANs!" When We finally entered
upon this war We had to learn anew
the serious truth. I'VE ARE AMER
ICANS."
Those citizens who felt them
selves in sympathy with the Allies
found it easy to be good American
citizens. In their zeal. some forgot
what the term good American"
really implies. But those citizens
who by blood and extraction felt
themselves drawn to the Central
Powers. they could and would not
comprehend that America had de-
cided 70 enter the war against Ger
many. and 1t was not so easy for
them TO show loyalty to this coun-
try. for they could not understand
Americas point of view.
Ii We picture to ourselves a large
ball. and If We imagine this ball to
be painted red on one side and green
on the other. then we can see from
the one side only the green, and
from the other side only the red

from the German angle and from
the German point of view, the earth

Millions of citizens Of this country

side or that. according to their
European birth or extraction. The
whole war appeared to be at first
nothing more than a European con-
troversy. and as nation we were
not in position to support official
ly the one side or the other. But
soon We were confronted by pro-
found opinions on the subject. opin-
ions held by many Americans. In
q very short time We. the people Of
the New World, we're threatened
with internal conflict. We were on
the way to divide ourselves into hos
tile parties and camps because Of
opposite convictions and opinions
relating to the war. It is. Of course.
clear to us, that such q division Of
tho people Of this country not only
made harder for each individual his
duties and obligations toward this
country. but also that such divisions
began to shake the very foundations
Of this nation. Under such condi-
tions It was difficult to uphold the
spirit of neutrality. however honest
and sincere the attempts may have
been. Certain plans and actions on
the part of Germany seemed inex-
plainable to the rest Of the world
and aroused their temper. Public
opinion turned more and more in
favor Of the Allies. Germany's mo-
tives; plans, actions. explanations
and final submarine-warfare policy
could not be interpreted except as
just cause for war: and thus war
was declared between America and
Germany in the early part of April.

WOMEN IN NEW YORK
 FOUGHT FOR SUGAR
(NeW York HeraId)

An increasing spirit of unrest and sporadic attacks on the wholesale and retail grocery stores throughout the lower East Side have been recent de- velopments in the sugar famine in Manhattan. Numerous dealers through out the city had placed signs in their windows declaring they had no sugar, and the police were called to many points to disperse gatherings of women.
 With babies in their arms thousands of Jewish women stormed the retail and wholesale grocery stores. The proprietors of many of the besieged stores were forced to bolt their doors to keep the women out and telephone calls were sent to the nearby police stations.
 One sugar dealer received a ship ment of the commodity and disregard Ing his standing orders. sold it in , ana 10-pound packages at nine cents a pound This news quickly spread. and within a short time several hum dred women were clamoring at the doors of his store The crowd became so large that the police formed the women in line more than a block in length. Several retailers who sought large quantities were driven away and told that -Women with children would be served first.

FINANCES AND MARKETS
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

NEW YORK, March 1S.-A new and more complicated phase of the in ternational situation was injected into today's heavy stock market. Ru- mors of a protest by Holland at the proposed communicating of Dutch ships by this government formed the basis of heavy selling. Important rails and industrials reacted 1 to 3 points and some specialties consider ably more, the selling assuming wide dimensions in the final hour.
 Many stocks ordinarily classed among the leaders were scarcely quoted until well toward the close Canadian Pacific was heavy to weak throughout, extending last weeks severe reversal by points. Other transcontinentals also grain carriers and coalers were down 1 to 212 points with shares of eastern roads. -
 Among specialties, American Suma- tra Tobacco, which may be adversely affected by the Dutch situation, broke A. points. Sugar and oils were swept into the receding tide of the last hour, yielding to points.
 Bonds, both rails and industrials, were sympathetically depressed and Liberty issues also reacted. Total sales, par value, aggregated $2.775,000. United States bonds old issues, were unchanged on call.
