CAN'T HOLD MARINES
FORGET About "Kamerad" When
They Chase Huns.
Pennsylvania Boy Gives Interesting
Account Of Thrilling Work
at Front.

New Castle, Pa.-Byrn Williams, q
New Castle boy with the medical corps
in France, writes home of the hap
penings on the front controlled by the
United States marines prior to June
%. He says the marines forgot all
about the word "kamerad" when they
chased the Germans. He writes:
IT must say this is a much hotter
spot than the other front, for here
it is open warfare and you can mag
inc what is going on here when they
put Americans in such place. About
three weeks ago. when the marines
first started to advance, they got the
fever of going after the square heads,
and their officers had hard time hold
ing them back. That kind of business
has been going on so long that last
night the marines wanted to go over
and get some machine gun nests that
were planted Oh rocky ledge in a
large woods.
"About five o'clock they high-balled
and so did everybody else. At eight
o'clock they had taken all the machine
gun nests and, Of course, they want
ed to chase the Huns out of the woods
and away they went, the square
heads yelling 'kamerad,' but the ma
rines could not understand the word.

Wheeler arrived in the dining room
late for dinner and, having an en-
gagement Immediately after, decided
to have dinner as quickly as possible.
= II will have no soup and you can cut
out the fish," he told an attentive
Swiss.
The waiter withdrew silently. Pres
emily he was observed In earnest con-
sultation with the head waiter. The
latter dignitary called another waiter
into conference. After few minutes
deliberation, heads close, the waiter
slipped away and came back with
knife.
He picked up the platter and, going
to Wheeler's place, very carefully ex-
tracted the fish bones.
That, the editors understand, is

Letter From Helsingfors, Sent to

Hope That America Send Grain
for Humanitarian Reasons"

Stockholm, Thursday, March %
The American consul at HelsingforS
-Thornwell Haines, has advised
American legation here that he is
leaving the Finnish capital Friday
with about 20 American refugees.
Some three hundred refugees of
different nationalitieS, including
many Americans, are at Abo and
Bjorneborg, and Minister Morris
has asked the Swedish government
to send an ice breaker to bring
them across the government of
Bothnia to Gctle.
A Stockholm resident has received
letter from a friend in Helsingfors
dated February %, in which it is
said that instead of a regular ration
of grain flour and a half ration of
potato -four that was to have been
issued that week, only fish was dis
tributed. The letter, which was
sent by courier, expressed the hope
that the United States for humani-
tartan motives would send grain to
be kepC at Naravaka or Haparanda,
and rationed out only on condition
that the Films stop fighting among
themselves.

KAISER VICTORY OVER SLAY He SAYS
"SAME FORCES WILL ALSO BRING US PEACE IN THE

BY DISPOSITION OF GOD, HE WRITES
IN LETTER TO FRIEND.

Amsterdam, March Sin reply to
congratulations from Philip Heine-
ken, director of the North German
Lloyd steamship line, Emperor Will
liam has sent the following tele-
gram:
The German sword is our best
protection. With Gods help it will
SO bring us peace in the west and,
indeed, the peace which after much
distress and many troubles, the Ger
man people need for happy fu-
ture.'
The emperor detailed his graft
rude at greater length in a message
to the vice-president of the reich
stag, saying: The complete VIC
tory fills me with gratitude. 1t per
mits us to live again one of those
great moments in which we can rev.
erently admire Gods hand in his
tory. What turns events have taken
is by the disposition of God.
Heroic deeds of our troops, the
successes of our great generals and
the wonderful achievements OF
those at home have their roots in
moral forces, and in the determine
ton which has been inculcated in
our people in a hard school. They
will also carry us through in a de-
cisive and final battle to victory.
"In the great tasks upon which
the conclusion of peace, reconstruc-
ton and the healing of the wounds
of war will set us, desire my peo-
pie to rely on the historical eXpe-
rience that unity means strength
May our people face the new time
and its tasks with a strong sense OF
the realities, with unbending faith
in itself and its mission, and with
strong, patriotic and proud JOY in
the fatherland bound to me and my
house by old and proved bonds OF
mutual trust.

this time"

tribute to President Wilson was

he made here yesterday.
Asserting that he doubted wheth-

try in the prosecution of war for
liberty "and higher moral eleva-
tion of humanity" Earl Reading de-
clared of the presidents
No human being has the faculty
of stating in better language those
pure ideals than your president. We
in Europe have learned to look to
those words of his and to cherish
them as representing to us the un-
alterable determination of America,
once it has begun to war in vindi-
cation OF right, never to sheath the
sword until it has conquered. We
know that the words spoken by
your president are words upon
which we can build. They are mes
sages Of hope and comfort to us

RUMANIA is INUNDATED
Kaiser Forces Hard Terms on the
Little Kingdom.

Amsterdam, March S.-Explana-
ton of the preliminary peace treaty
with Rumania is made in a state
ment issued to the Austrian press
at Vienna. 1t say, that Dobrudja
was transferred to the central pow
erS as a whole in order to make the
decision easier for Rumania
The frontier adjustments in
Pennsylvania, in general mean the
protection of the iron gates and the
Petrozeni Mountains, as we'll as pre-
caution against fresh surprise at
tacks. The new frontier however,
will not go deeply into Rumania.
The economic demands relate par
ticularly to imports of petroleum
and agricultural products; and the
evacuation of Austria Hungary by
Rumanian troops affects a strip OF
Bukowina still occupied by the Ru-
manians.
Finally, the statement says, the
stipulation that Rumania must give
transport facilities for troops and
transports Of the central powers to
Odessa appeared necessary in or
der to safeguard the shipment OF
large grain supplies from Odessa by
way of the Volga, Dnieper and Dan
ube rivers to the central empires.

REVISE STANDARD
FOR j. S. WHEAT
TENTATIVE RULES ARE AN
NOUNCED BY HOUSTON.
ARE LESS EXACTING.

Washington, March 8,-Tenta-
tive revised standards for wheat un-
der the grain standards act were an
nounced today by the secretary of
agriculture. The standards are less
exacting, especially with reference
to moisture, mixtures OF wheat OF
different classes, in separable for
eign material and rye mixtures than
are the present standards.
Before final action is taken upon
the standards five public hearings
will be held to afford the grain trade
opportunity to discuss the proposed
standards.
Change in the former standards
is largely due to war conditions
which have brought about fixed
prices for wheat and substantial
elimination OF competition in its
marketing. Milling and baking in.
dustries have been put upon a new
basis. Under present abnorma
conditions, mixtures of different
classes of wheat, and mixtures o.
rye and other factors do not play sc
important 4 part in the marketing
OF wheat as under pre-war condi
tionS.
