YANks TURNED TIDE OF BATTLE.
Pays Tribute To First And Third
Corps For Part In Glorious Victory.

CoTpS = OF EdIt III 0iOilouo ViSloiy.
American Army in France.-General
John J. Pershing, commander-in-chief
of the American Army In France, has
issued the following order:
1T fills me with pride to record In
general orders tribute to the service
achievements Of the First and Third
Corps, comprising the 1st, I'd, Sd, 4th,
26th, 2Sth, 32d and AID divisions Of
the American Expeditionary Forces.
"You came to the battlefield at a
crucial hour for the Allied cause. For
almost four years the most formid-
able army the world has yet seen had
pressed It's invasion of France and
stood threatening its capital. At no
time has that army been more pow
erful and menacing than when, on
July Is, it struck again to destroy In
one great battle the brave men OPP
posed to it and to enforce its brutal
will upon the world and civilization.
"Three days later, in conjunction
with our Allies, you counter-attacked.
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 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 f1t 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.
1--WE have paid for our success with
the lives Of many of our brave COM
rades. We shall cherish their men,
ory always and claim for our history
and literature their bravery, achieve
ment and sacrifice.
This order will be read to all or
ganizations at the first assembly for
nations following it's receipt.

Gcrnan-AmeYican War

Under cover Of darkness the Ameri-
cans dug in on the railway embark
ment south of the VeSle, between
Courlandon and Magneux. They con-
solidated and held their positions
despite heavy enemy fire.
German patrols reconnoitered the
American positions, but hail OF
American machine gun bullets drove
them back to their line of defense,
which is now north of the Vesle.
Arthur Guy Empey was granted per-
mission by the var department to en-
list In the Tank Corps.
The war department has taken un-
usual measures to be prepared to no.
tify the 100000 nen between eight
cen and forty-fve who will be required
to register on September 5.
The Americans north Of Fismes
have reached the SOissons-Rhelms
highroad. Signs are multiplying that
the Germans are preparing for the
evacuation of the ground between the
AiSne and the VeSle.
A Canadian officer tells how Amerl-
can machine gunners refused to obey
commanders order to remain in the
rear, but forced their way to the bat
tie front in the recent offensive OF the
British front. The commander said
they were insuiliciently trained to take
part in the operations, but their work
proved he lad misjudged them.
British ard French officers concede
that 10000 American marines, ilanked
by four regiments of American reGu-
lars saved Paris by refusing to retire
ut Belleau Wood before dozen or
fifteen PrusSian regiments.

London, Feb. 2O-Germany has
produced $50 different war medals
to commemorate various alleged vic

about half of them have been obtained
by the ictoriaV and Albert Museum
in London and are now on exhibition
there.
Before April, 1916, the German
government had issued more than a
hundred popular-priced "victorv med

inscriptions recording such exploits
as Zeppelin attacks on London, the
bombardment of British coast town7

PRIZES WILL Be
GIVEN FOR COPY
advertising Material for the Third
Liberty Loan Wanted by the Pub
liCity Committee at San Francisco
General Ideas for the Copy Are
Outlined Herewith.
(By Associated Press)

San Francisco, Feb, 20.-Prizes for
advertising copy to be used in con-
nection with the advertising of the
Third Liberty Loan have been an
nounced by the Liberty Loan General
Publicity Committee. Eight full page
advertisements for newspapers are
wanted and $25 will be given the

cepted.
The contest is limited to the seven
states Of the Twelfth Federal Re
serve District.
Al copy must be sent to the jury
of awards, Liberty Loan Committee,
430 California street, before March
4th.
The generic ideas laid down by the
committee, and to which each advcr-
tsement should conform, follow:
l. German NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. in
symbolic or specific aspect, and the
need Of wiping it out for ali time.
Without the money to do it, we might
as we'll accept German barbarity and
as the new and permanent standard
of existence.
2. A Liberty Loan Subscription is
one of the real tests to show the pa
triotism of foreign born Americans
citizens-particularly the German
American. A citizen is either a pa
triot or a traitor He must subscribe
to prove his status.
3, Germany LevyinE Tribute-Hero
you may assume the Kaiser satanj-
cally triumphant making us pay his
war costs-the United States at the
mercy of the destructive and male
ficient German ideas Of conquest and
subjugation. 1t is needless to say
that this must not be- Not Il cert
for tribute-billion for the EXTERN =
nation of Kaiserism with its shadow
over American liberty.
a. Money for Munitions, Food an
Equipment-Om men and our allies
must have equipment and food to sua-
tain them and munitions to fight witt.
The Liberty Loan is a premium pail
for dency and patriotism by gov-
ernment that allows its citizens the
most secure of Investments.
5. Money for Ships-What boots It
if we raise a million men, produce
millions of tons Of ammunition and
millions of tons of food, if we haven't
the ships to transport them to the
seat of war? Before we can get our

WORK ON THE FARMS
(By Associated Pressl

London, Feb. 2O-Only one in every
twenty Of the able-bodied German
prisoners in this country have been
utilized for work on farms, accol ding
to the Agricultural Gazette.
The journal says there must be
well over 100000 able-bodied prison

number could do wonders in the way
of food production, if organized.
Within the last two or three weeks
the number actually working ON the
farms was les sthan 5000, the paper

PASSED AWAY THIS MORNING
James Was the Popular Idol of Kentucky, Besides
Being the Most Picturesque and Forceful
Figu e in the Halls of Congress

cratic primaries by an overwhelming
vote.
After the United States entered the
war in 1917 Senator James became
one of the most aggressive senate
spokesmcn of the administration and
champion of the army and navy prep
arauons. HIS last appearance at tnc
capitol was on February IA last to de-
liver fiery speech in answer to an
attack upon the war department by
Senator chamberlain, chairman of the
military committees. He appealed to
all Americans not to heckle, badger
or handicap the president, and declar-
ed, eve are going to make the kaiser
hand over his sword"
Three days later he was taken i'll at
dinner. Several weeks afterwarG
he insisted on returning to the senate,
but was too weak to take any part
and soon went to Johns Hopkins hos
pital in Baltimore. He was operated
on in an effort to stay the ravages OF
a chronic case of Bright's disease.
Mrs. James, and a brother, Edgar
James, United States marshal for the
western district of Kentucky, were
with the senator at the hospital dur
ing his long fight for life. Many
members of both houses of congress
went over to Baltimore frequently to
pay cheering visits.
Senator James was prophet of
democratic success in every political
contest and an outspoken partisan on
all occasions. He made the keynote
speech on democratic achievements at
the St. Louis democratic national con-
vention in 1916 and, drew from that
gathering of 10000 persons cries of
Give it to US again, Ollie" when
epitomizing President Wilson's poll
cies. He made the speech notifying
President Wilson of his election to the
presidency in 1916.
Senator James was AZ years old. He
began life .os page in the Kentucky
Legislature. He seconded Bryan's NOM
ination for president in 1908, headed
the Kentucky delegation to democrat
ic national conventions in 1904 and
1908, served in the house in the 58th
to 62nd congresses and has been in
the senate since 1918, when he sue
ceeded Thomas H. Paynter.

Jailing of Leaders Under Spy Act
Forces Them From Brooklyn.

1t became known yesterday that the
Russellites have sold their tabernacle
at Nos. 1917 Hicks street and are
preparing to leave Brooklyn, where
they have had headquarters since
1909. The conviction of Joseph F.
Rutherford, their leader, and seven of
the officers for violating the espion-
age act, for which the Russellites
were sentenced to twenty years each
in Atlanta prison last June, has dis
counted Russellism to such an extent
in Brooklyn, that the heads deemed
it advisable, it is said, to go elsewhere.
DR.. William Spill, acting head of
the Russellites, admitted that the Rus
sellites are seeking a new home. He
declared no definite place has been Sc
lected.
The Russellites, DR.. Spill said, have
not yet sold the Bethel home at Nos.
122-124 Columbia Heights, the old
Henry Ward Beecher residence, where
they have their executive headquar-
ter. The Hicks street church was

ranked high in leadership in ho+

Also About the Red Cross and,
Going Across

Mr.. L. L. Lucas,
Tarpon Springs, Fla.
Friend Lucas:
| am writing to thank you for The
Leader. | get it every day and en-
joy reading the news from home very
much. / also wish to thank the Red
Cross workers for the sweater and
Red Cross kit they sent me, as the
boys in the service find the Red Cross
kits very useful.
l am glad to learn through The
Leader of the safe arrival of so many
of Tarpon Springs boys across, and
hope that they viii be able to keep
doing the good work over there until.
more of US are there to help them car
ry the fight until we have won. I
think that every fellow in the service
wants to go across; that is what one
hears every day here in camp-all the
boys wishing they would be shipped
across at once, and some are going
every day.
We have very good camp here, but
the town of Key West is not up to
much. AS there are about $4,000 peo-
pie here it ought to be good town,
but Tarpon Springs is far ahead Of il
in any way.
Thanking you again for The Leader
and wishing you and all the good peo-
pie OF Tarpon Springs the best Of
health, ! beg to remain.
Your friend,
CLARENCE ROLLINS.
