SALVATION ARMY
MAN TELLS STORY
Relates Story OF Good Work Being
Done For Men On The
Firing Line

Torn by shrapnel and bullets, COW
cred with wounds and a victim of
''gassing" Sergeant James Stanley of
the famous Princess Pats regiment
of Canada, has just returned to
America after four years and two days
of participation in every thing the
deadly fight against the Huns has to
offer. Discharged because of his dis
abilities, Sergeant Stanley intends to
devote the remainder of the war to
awakening the country and Canada to
the tremendous work being done by
the Salvation Army, and the other big
war work organizations on the battle
fields. He comes to America in the in
terest of the United war work Cam
paign for S170, 500, 900.
Sergeant Stanley fairly brims over
when he talks of the great work the
Salvationists, Y. NJ. C. A., knights of
Columbus and others are doing on the
battle front. He says, IT can't make
a speech, but | can tell story, and
that is what am going to do"
And here is part of his story:
When | went to France in August,
1914, with the Princess Pats, found
the British Salvationist workers right
up in the front lines with rifles in their
hands.
Christmas Eve of 1914 / will never
forget, for up into the firing line to us
they came with Loxes of things to eat
and little presents to cheer US. But it
was that way everywhere. You
couldn't turn around but that one was
waiting to serve you-serve in a quiet,
unobtrusive way, always seeking to
help
only the men wokers came up into
the firing lines on the British front,
but they were right in the front line
trenches. Back little ways were the
lassies, who met the men going up
and the tired and sick and wounded,
some coming back. and served hot cof-
fee and food and passed cheering
word. But it is different now, for the
American lassies and other welfare
workers are right up in the first line
trenches with the men, The Salvation
lists take pay for food and drink when
the boys have it, but when a boy
doesn't have enough money he gets
just as much as the boy who has. He
can pay back when he gets his pay, if
he is inclined, but he never wants.
Danger means nothing to the work
ers with the boys They have been
killed, and wounded, shot at and gass-
ed. They are prepared to meet death
and the savage Hun has no terrors for
them. They work like trained SOL
diers. cool and collected at all times.
and they have saved hundreds of boys
lives They have huts and ambulances.
They constantly are studying the sit
uation TO see how they can improve
their labors and they do it without
fanfare. They have certainly wor
the hearts of every soldier in France.
have never heard them criticized and
it means the hospital" for. anyone
here to say anything derogatory to a
returned soldier about them If Ameri-
ca only knew the real story of what
these self-sacrifcing people do "over
there" their forces nj France would be
four-fold what they are now through

First Of A Series OF Educational
Propaganda For Peace
With Victory
MUST WIPE OUT
DEADLIEST MENACE
Must Reduce Huns To State Of
Humiliation AS Foe Of
Needed Discipline

The first shot in a nationwide ed
peace suggestion of the Teutonic pow
ers was fred today by the National
Security League in the form of per-
sonal utterances on the subject from
some of the best known writer's of
the country. The Security League
makes public thdse expressions of
opinion as part of propaganda for
education of the people in the neces-
sity for a conclusive victory over
Germany which will be continued in
definitely by means of material sup
piled by the leading writer's Vi the
United States who are members of
the Leagues volunteer editorial corr S.
Commend President
The Executive Committee of the
Ma ional Security League prefaced
its anti-peace announcement today
with a resolution commencing Presi-
dent Wilson for his prompt rejection
of the Austrian ''feeler."
In anticipation of the Teutonic peace
effort, the Security League had s.art-
ed the compilation of the contribu-
tions on the subject from the promi-
nent writer's of the country some days
ago. A few excerpts. from those al
ready received by the League read:
Gertrude Atherton-"It is only those
incapable of grasping this great war
in its entirety that hope and pray for
an immediate peace by negotiation, a
peace that would leave the German
Empire in the position of man who
had severe illness but only needs
time and care and recuperative rest
something she now yearns for-to be
stronger than ever. If this war fin
ishes with the Hohenzollerns and
Prussian power and an undismem-
bered Austria-Hungary to support
her, it will be because of a break
down of morale on the part of the
Allied powers, which has let them
drift supinely into negotiable peace.
And if Prussia remains in the saddle
and the Southern Slavs have not been
permitted to form strong buffer
state we will not only be plunged into
another war ten years hence, but into
a hopeless war"

PHONE MESSAGE SAYS
U-BOAT WAS SUNK
Gun Fight at Long Range with CAM
ouflaged Enemy Described by
American Captain

The Navy Department has received
by telephone the following summary
of statement made by the captain OF
the IT, S. S. Frank H. Buck:
ION September 8. at S:25 a. m, an
enemy submarine was sighted on the
starboard beam at $4,000 yards. The
submarine opened fire with two 6-inch
guns. We answered FIRE with forward
gun. We saw the shot fall about 400
Yards short and Immediately swung
stern forward TO submarine, using
after gun. Our shots were very close
20 the submarine and the submarines
shrapnel was bursting very near TO
us. some of the pieces falling upon
our deck amidships. We changed the
course frequently, which seemed to
upset the submarines aim and range.
AS soon as the submarine saw our
range wa SEXUAL to ners, she hauled
away from us. Up to that time she
had been closing in on US.
Hit Apparently Registered
Before the submarine could get
out of range our twenty-eight shot
from the after gun apparently hit
her stern The twenty-ninth shot hit
her just forward of the coming tower.
near and under the water line. The
bow Immediately shot up into the air
very suddenly, then settled and went
down out of sight, the stern making
half turn toward us and then it
disappeared
Upon shot striking the submarine
we saw very closely terrific explo
sion and black smoke, which envelop-
ed the submarine ! am positive that
we destroyed her, as she sank almost
instantly after the shot struck her.
THE engagement lasted 20 minutes.
Some of the fragments of the subma-
rine fell on our deck and were picked
up by the quarsemaster and chief
gunner's mate.
Flew No Flag
THE submarine was about 300 feet
long. of the early type of German sub
marines with high bows, and had two
6-inch guns close to the coming tow
err, fore and aft. She fired in salvos,
using about so shots altogether. She
was camoufiaged and flew no flag"
The captain of the Frank H. Buck
highly commends the efficiency and
conduct of Chief Gunner's Mate, Jo-
seph Steffens, United Sattes Navy, and
the whole gun crew under his COM
mand.
The captains official report has not
yet been received by the Navy Depart
ment.

aGround in the Dust.

John A. Sleicher-"G Germany with
peace brides is more to be feared
than Germany lighting. Adroit, insid-
ious and lying Teutonic propaganda
put Russia out of the war, and al
most had the same effect in Italy.
This is a greater menace to the flu
ture peace and security of the world
than the German armies in France.
Germany is now in process of being
defeated. If we stop before that pro-
cess is complete, Germany will in eff
feet come out victorious and the Al
lies will have lost all the fruits of
their struggle for democracy. The
supreme duty upon the Allies and
America is to ground Germany in the
dust"
Cosmo Hamilton-"A premature
peace will mean, on the part of all
the Allies who have remained in the
security of their homes weakening
of mental. moral and physical siam
ina which will be an act of treachery
on their behalf, the supreme sacrifice
at the front, bun to their children and
their children's children, never to be
forgiven
@Needs HumiIiati0ns
Rev Dr. Charles H. Parkhurst-
I'VE must reduce the Huns to such
condition of mind as will insure their
doing what we insist upon and yield
ing all that we demand. When a
wise and just father chastises his in
corrigible boy he continues his dis
cipline till the boy gives up. stops re-
sisting, and quits parleying. There
is nothing Germany needs so much
even for her own shake, as humilia-
tion.r
Walter Camp-"It is hardly neces-
sary to elaborate upon the fact thai
if Germany energies from this wal
without such conditions as viii pre-
vent a building up again of militar-
ism. all the blood that has been shed
by the Allies and by America viii
have been wasted
Albert Payson Terhune-"If, By
greed or by fatigue or by ignorance
we should be fooled into the granting
of such a peace, then our brothers
would have died in vain. Germany
virtually, would have won the war
The menace to our children would re

conquered territory. seems at first Of less
brutal and revolving character, as injury
to property is always less serious than
murder and enslavement Of people. But
when the treatment of conquered territory
is studied carefully it is clear that the sys-
TEN shows itself here in an even more
brutal form, because the more systematic
exploitation and wanton destruction would
inevitably lead to starvation Of the popu-
lation, especially of the aged, feeble. and
the children, and to the enforced enslave-
ment of the able bodied workers. Fur
thermore. the results of these evils will
not end with the war. but will be perpetu-
ated. The conquered lands. even after
they regain their freedom. will suffer long
and previously from the enfeeblement Of
the population caused by the misery dur
ing the occupation Of the country by the
Germans.

he said, ARE those who fear that they
may have to come home while before
the job is done"
The Secretary declined any comment
upon the present drive or upon further
plans for sending American troops, sup

Later in the day he was to 90 to the
White House to lay before President Viii
son detailed information about both the
military and political situation he gath

trip to the newspaper men by saying he
had got the information he went abroad
to get; had realized more fully the prob
