Special Cable Dispatch to The Sunday

BY ARTHUR s. DRAPER.
LONDON, October 19-In view of
the reports from Berlin as to the pos
sible modification of the U-boat cam
paign, an article which George Bern
hard Contributed to the voss Iche
Zeitung assumes new interest.
Herr Bernhard declared in the. ar

the beginning of last year at mo-

dent Wilson to mediate, when he had
communication of both German and
British peace conditions had been re-

kept in the dark. o.

view Of the overwhelming balance of
fare to which he was opposed; did not
dare to confess that he had put in

President Saw, Huns Insincerity.
President Wilson. in Bernhard's
view. must at that time had been con-
vinced of Germany'S inSincerity or of
the existence Of a double government
in Berlin. 1t should not appear Won
derful to him or to any one who reads
his article in Germany that the Presi-
dent and the allied peoples are not
easy to convince of Germany's sin
gle mindedness at the present juno
ture.
The orders to the army commanders,
Bernhard says. are a step in that di-
rection, and If a stop is put to the
U-boat barbarism it would be another.
Warning Sets London on Ear.
While Berlin is busy over the u-boat
question Lord Miners interview warn

the kaiser and the possible triumph Of
the bolsheyih has set London on its

the Washington Star correspondent to-

There is an old Scotch proverb that

Turn German Positions.

= The history of the Champagne bat
tie, which freed Rheims, shows the
sensational part played by the Amer
leans. While the French were held
up by strong German defensive posi-
tions the American I'd Division at
tackled on a two-nile front west of
Somme Ply, broke through the enemy
positions and rapidly advanced a dis
tance Of five and one-half miles, cap
turing the formidable heights Of
Blanc Mont and Medeah farm. This
rapid advance turned the German po-
sitions in the mountain region east
of Rheims and forced them to make
a rapid retreat.
The attack of the I'd Division was
preceded by the preliminary clearing
up of the German first and sec
ond lines, which were protected by
wires This operation was accom-
plisked in a few hours. A general at
tack was launched on the morning of
October 3. The Americans swept
away all resistance and pushed ahead
speedily. They found that on the left
flank the German line known as the
Essen trench was pouring in an en-
filading fire from machine guns; al
though this trench lay in the sector
to the left, the Americans sent over
detachments and soon conquered it.

Above Six Billions.
DISPLAY OF PATRIOTISM
UNEQUALED IN HISTORY
Twenty Million Individual Pledges
Indicate Americans Eager to
Enlist Their Dollars.

With reports from all parts OF
the country indicating a flood OF
iast-minute pledges, Treasury De-
partment officials were confident
last night that the fourth liberty
loan went past its goal OF So,OOO,OO0,-
600.
Official reports were lacking, but
all messages reaching Washington
indicated that once more the Amer
ican people gave their government
not only what it asked, but more, in
order that the war against Germany
NAV be carried to a successful end.
How far the total will run above the
observation-disclosures goal officials would not
attempt to estimate last night. IT all
depends, they said, on whether big imam
t.ial interests at the last moment nle
the big lump sum subscriptions expect
ed of them and whether the number OF
smaller subscriptions by INDIVIDUALS is
found to meet expectations.
The latest indications were that ~
600 600 individual Americans ENLISTED
their dollars to fight. This is believed
TO break all records for distribution Oh
war bonds by this or any other country.

10000 Persons Bought Bonds.

Not only did Washington pass its
allotted goal, but it boasted last night
of nearly 10000 Individual subscrib-
ers-showing clearly that the rank
and file as well as the men OF wealth
enlisted their dollars to fight =
One of the liveliest spots in, town
last night was the corner of -11th
street and Pennsylvania avenue,
where scores of persons who stopped
to study The Stars war map bought
oonds. The woman's liberty loan
committee held a rally in front of
the map, and with the aid Of a Sec
ton of the Marine Band gathered in
a total of $4,000 in last-minute sub
scriptions.
one of the touching incidents Of the
entire campaign was enacted at this
Star office rally just before the loan
drive closed. A British army officer.
who had been listening to the women

WITH THE AMERICAN FORCES
NORTH OF RHEIMS, Wednesday,
Gus page of American military his
tory in this war has just been con-
cluded in the Champagne battle, in
which two divisions of United States
troops-the I'd and the 36th-have
done their inadequately heralded part
facing the famous city Of Rheims.
The work of the Americans was
more notable because one of the
American divisions-the 36th-entered
the terrific battle at an important
point. Although new to fighting and
without ever having heard shell-fire
before. the division withstood the
most bitter German counter attacks
without finching.
Praised by French General.
The efforts Of the two units were
so noteworthy that they were praised
publicly in an order issued by Gen.
Naul, in command of the 21st French
Army Corps, with which the Americans
were brigaded. The general said:
ION October the I'd American Divi-
sion, having arrived during the night
in the sector of the 21st Army Corps,
attacked the fortified crest Of Blanc
Mont and captured 1t in few hours
despite the desperate fesa1tance Of
the enemy. In the following days 1t

'sThe 36th Division. recent forma-
tion and as yet incompletely organ
ized, was ordered into the line on the
night of October 81 to relieve under
conditions particularly delicate the
I'd Division and to dislodge the enemy
from the crests north of st. Etienne
and throw him back to the Aisne.
Although being under fire for the first
time, the young soldiers of Gen.
Smith, rivaling in their combative
spirit and tenacity the old and valiant
regiments of Gen. Lejeune, accomplish
ed all the tasks set for them.
ITO all the general commanding the
army corps is happy to address the
most cordial expression of his recog-
milton and his best wishes for future
service. but the past is proof of the

we have twelve grades and our

State Department of Education.
In 1916, we received liz
points from the Department,
this year we will receive 10
points. An effort was made
this year by the Superinten-
dent, to get the school recog-
nized by the state as teach
ers normal, so that person
graduating from the school
would be given a statewide
teachers license. If the pa
irons of the school had been
interested enough to back him
up, he would have succeeded.
This is only few of the
important things about our
school. Become a booster and
help to add many others to the
ever increasing list.
Boost and the world boosts
with you,
Knock and you're on the shelf.
For the world gets sick
Of the one who'll kick,
And wishes he'd kick himself.
Boost when the sun is shining,
Boost when it starts to rain.
II you happen to fall,
Don't lie there and bawl,
But get up and boost again.
Boost if your cause is lively,
Boost if it's dead as sin;
No battle is Won
By the one who'll run,
So stick to your job and win!

Boost for the things sublime;
For the chap that's found -

Bald Knob. Feb. 27.-Fol-
lowing many complaints from
residents of Bald Knob, that
the federal food regulations
were being disregarded by w.
A. Hodges who conducts re-
tail and jobbing business at
Bald Knob, and after Mr.. Hold
ges had been warned, his store
was ordered closed yesterday
by Hamp Williams, federal
food administrator for Arkan-
sas. Government authorities
who had investigated said that
they were convinced that Mr..
Hodges violated the regulations
to comply with the restrictions
on the sale of flour and sugar.
This is the first instance
where Mr.. Williams has been
compelled to resort to drastic
means to enforce the law gov
orning the distribution of food.
Mr.. Hodges was given his
choice of closing his store for
such period as the government
may see fit, or having criminal
charges referred against him.
He chose the former and sign
ed an agreement to close his
place and, when allowed to
resume business to conform to
all rules and regulations of
federal and state food admins
traitors. He was permitted to
sell two cars of fertilizer he
had ordered for farmers.
The penalty for violating the
federal regulations may be a
fine of $4,000, or a prison term
of two years or both.

Governor BrOug1 is Silent on
the Special Session Question

general, Monday filed a motion
for a rehearing in the A. P.
Rivard case in the Supreme
Court. The case was the one,
in which the court held, in re-
versing the decision of the Gar
land Circuit Court that it was
not in violation of the law to
bring liquor into the state.
Should the court refuse to
reopen the case, it is believed
the governor will call a special
session. A modified decision
prohibiting the introduction of
liquor into the State would OBJ
yiate the necessity of a special
session.
