No CONFIRMATION
THAT Pioneers
MET With LOSSES
Report That Delaware Regi-

Thought to be Unfounded
were BACK OF Lines
WHEN LAST HEARD FROM

During the past week there have been
persistent reports circulated in this city
that the 59th (Delaware) Pioneer Regi-
ment had met with severe losses in
the advance against the Huns around
Sedan in the fighting just previous TO
the signing Of the armistice. The re-
ports have stated that the Delaware
boys were cut to pieces in the fighting
and that the losses were unusually
heavy.
The Evening Journal has been ap-
pealed TO by many relatives Of the Del
aware boys in this regiment for definite
news as 20 the rumOrs and as far as
this paper has been able TO learn the
reports are unfounded. Adjutant Cen
eral /. Pusey Wickersham IS also OF
the opinion that the rumors are un-
founded, although he has received no
direct word from the regiment since
the armistlce was signed.
The seth Pioneer Regiment, which
left Camp Dix for the trip overseas
early in September. is attached TO the
27th Division in France. The regiment

BIG VICTORY FOR WALLACE

The supreme court ruled in an opin.
ion handed down Saturday evening
that the state can collect approx
mate'y $4,000 in back taxes on in.
tangible assets aggregating $35O,O00
which the state tax commission had
contended represented the difference
between the capital stock of the
Cream Of Wheat Co. and it's assess.
able property and which the tax com
mission contended was assessable in
this state under the laws Of North Da.
kota -
A 4.5 mill tax on this amount of
property would yield the state year
ly revenue of $1,575, which the tax
commission claim together with back
taxes, interest and penalty taxes,
dating over a long period of
years, during which the Cream of
Wheat Co. maintained its home Of
flee in Grand Forks but conducted all
of it's operations in another state.
The tax commission got an unfavor-
able decision in the Grand Forks dis
trict court, and the supreme court re-
versed this decision Saturday.
The decision is regarded a person
al victory for Chairman George e.
Wallace, who argued the case through
both courts.

YANK ARMIES
OCCUPY
OF GERMANY
No Demonstration When Sol
diers Cross Into Rhine
Territory
CHILDREN ARE SCHOOLED
(By Associated Press.)

American Army of Occupation,
Sunday, Dec. mo demonstrations
either friendly or hostile marked the
entry of Major Dickman's army into
Germany today. The frontier was
crossed early in the day and by night
fall the Americans had moved for
ward IL miles reaching Radgen. on
the. left, and Saarholzback, on the
right. The line extended along the
Saar river, and through Saarburg and
Treves.
The reception given the Americans
differed from that encountered in
Luxembourg and rarts of Belgium and
France. There they were welcomed
as deliverers by almost all the popu.
lation. The attitude of Rhennish
Prussia was different. Not a single
act of open antagonism was apparent,
but it was evident even the children
had been schooled carefully in the
role they must play.
No Demonstration.
On the Luxembourg side of the Mo-
selle river the streets of the villages
were filled with sightseers but across
the Moselle the strets WI almost de-
serted. Perhaps IS per cent of the
population remained within their
homes, and in a majority of cases the
blinds were drawn. Here and there
q German stood in the doorway to
watch the troops pass.
d Large crowds were encountered in
Treves, the largest place occupied
later in the day, but even there most
of the people kept moving maintain
ing always a steadied air OF indlffer'
ence.
