II have never seen human beings in
such state Of raggedness, hunger
and misery. When the camp at For.

broken up, the prisoners, most Of
whom were captured during the
March offensive, were told to clear
out and seek help from their allies.

This disgrace is open and fragrant

that Berlin deliberately approves Of

Senator Gilbert NJ. Hitchcock of Nebraska remarked at a social gather ing that when one was doing his best 1t was all that could te expected of him, and contributed the following story as m illustration:
 One afternoon little Jimmy was in- vited to take tea with n chum, and when he returned home he found his mother anxiously waiting for him.

Berlin Report
Claims Capture
OF II Americans
American Casualties North
of Toul Heavy; Asser-
ton Doubted

LONDON, March 2.--rwelve Amer
cans were captured in the raid on the
American line northwest of Toul yes
terday, Berlin announced officially to-
day. The statement also asserted that
the American casualties were heavy.
Doubts on the correctness of the
enemy claim of prisoners were ex.
pressed here in view of a dispatch from
correspondent with the American
army, which said at the most the Ger
mans might have taken two or three
men from a listening post, and it was
thought no men had been captured.
The part Of the German official state
ment dealing with the operations on
the American front was AS follows:
Between the Meuse and the Moselle
infantry, accompanied by pioneers,
penetrated the enemy trenches north
east of Seicheprey. Americans who
were manning the trenches suffered
heavy casualties and lost twelve pris-
oners."
The French official statement of last
night said that at two points Germans
specially trained for raids had come in
contact with American infantry, in
both cases the enemy suffering heavy
loss, the Americans taking prisoners
and maintaining their lines intact
These two points referred to may be
the Toul sector and the Chemin -des-
Danes sector (whcre two columns of
Germans were elected from the trenches
after ten Americans and a few French
had been captured), or the statement
may mean there was a double attack on
the all-American lines in Lorraine not
otherwise reported.

Philips, former Columbia University
student and foe of warfare, was TODAY
rejected by the mastering officer and
dismissed from camp. If Phillips had
intended repeating his consistent dec
laration that he would not join the
army or even work for it. he did not
nave the opportunity, for when he was
called, with other men of Local Board

official from division headquarters

Barred From the Service
"Phillips," said the officer, "you are
a felon, and the United States army
does not want you as.one of its mem
bers. Your record shows that on July
~ last you were sentenced to one days
Imprisonment and to pay fine Of $500
because you violated Section 81 of the
Federal criminal code by seeking to
avoid the draft. This precludes the
possibility of your induction into the
service: You will be given railroad
ticket for New York City, and you will
leave the cantonment at once"

kept his eyes glued to the floor of

motioned him to depart. lie left camp

Americans Drop Gas
Masks TO Fight Freely
lDy The Associated Pressl


WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN
FRANCE, March 2.-The three recent
raids, one in the Toul sector and two
along the Chemin- Des- Danes, have
demonstrated that the American SOL
dicr, despite his previous inexperience
is now perfectV y at home in gas mask
and able to fight just as we'll with as
without it. In so quickly reaching this
stage, the Americans have shown their
usual adaptabilty. Gas was used in
all three attacks in just sufficient GUAM
titles to make masks necessary. as the
Germans, in their later attacks, did not
desire to encounter quantities Of their
own gas.
When the engagement at Toul began.
virtually all the Americans were
masked. Some few Of the men. how
eves. arc reported to have taken q
chance when the German infantry at
tackled, pulling off their masks for freer
action. One officer risked his life to
give commands to his men during the
roar Of explosions. He was unable
through his mask to make his men
hear. so he pulled it off and yelled his
orders. As it happened. there was no
gas in this particular section, bu. he
did not know it.
