18th the 3Oth took over the entire Sec
tor occupied by the 33rd British divi-
sion
The line held by the 3Oth was
known as the Canal Sector extending
from the southern outskirts of Ypres
to the vicinity of Voormezeels, dis
lance Of 1900 metres. On Aug. 3lst
and Sept. LIST the divisions engaged
in its offensive in conjunction with the
14th British division on its left and
the 9th American division on its
right. In this offensive the Goth
captured all detectives and advanced
distance of 1900 yards, captured
Is prisoners, two machine guns and
a quantity of small arms. Sept. 18th
with the 9th American division on
their left and the 46th British divi-
sion on their right they launched
their first offensive against the fam
GUS Hindenburg Line. AT this point
the Hindenburg Line curves in front
of the tunnel of st. Quentin and was
considered impregnable by the Ger
mans but they had not taken the
famous Yankee dash and pep into
their calculations. The linden
burg line curving west Of this tun-
mel consisted Of three main trench
systems protected by vast fields OF
heavy bard wire entanglements skill
fully placed. This wire was very
heavy and had suffered very little
damage by artillery fire. Holding the
dominating ground the Germans were
prepared to turn a devasting mach
inc gun fire on all approaches. The
line had been strengthened with cor
crete machine gun emplacements and
contained at this point large num-
Der of dugouts lined with mining tim

In many cases these rooms were

last Weeks Letter.

Mrs. Ted Batten received a paper
from her husband which is printed IN
LIE Mars, France, which has a very
interesting account OF what the
both or wild Cat" Division as 1t is
known by have done while In ser
vice. Mr.. Battin is one of co. G,
117th Infantry, Of the both Division,
while no doubt there are many others
from this vicinity who are with the
same division and this article will be
of interest to their friends. Here
are some Of the most interesting parts
of the article. 1t starts with the 3Oth
Division now in forwarding camps;
Sammies who successfully bucked the
Hindenburg Line are enroute home.
The red and black emblems OF the
Wild Cat division is great deal in
evidence these days at the Forward
ing Camp where they are making
brief stop in preparation to entrain-
ing for a port of embarkation. This
division commanded by Major Gen.
eral E. NJ. Lewis is typical of the
may we'll be proud of the fact that
95 per cent of the parents OF the boys
composing this division are Ameri-
can born. This division landed IN
Calais, May gath. 1918.
The 30th division was the first
American division to enter Belgium
at Walton on July 4th, where the
division was held in close support
of the 3Srd and 49th British Division
and completed the construction OF the
East and West Poperinghe Defense
Systems in the rear Of these two
British divisions where, in case OF al
offensive by the Germans and thu
forced withdrawal of the British thu
line of defenses they had finished
would be occupied by the wild Cat
division. Here they received the1l
front line training with the 33rd ant
49th British divisions, first as indi
yiduals, then by platoons and finall!

1892 rifles were captured in addition
to great mass of material. In many
cases field guns captured were turned
over to the artillery and used upon
the fleeing Germans. The total num-
Der OF prisoners captured from Sept
20 to Oct 20 was 90 officers and $3.50
men while the losses of the 30th were
small in comparison to those suffered
ed by the Boche.
The boys of the 3Oth division have
done their part and done it well as
American troops have the habit of do
ing and now that it is all over their
thoughts are homeward turned. The
breaking of the Hindenburg line, the
most famous defense system of his
tory will be something to tell Poster
ity.

To Blame for War
CONTINUED from page one)

IU olditt lOI WdI
"We are to blame for the war for
many reasons Harden continued.
"I've consistently said that, not only
about the beginning of the war, but
about our conduct of it throughout.
Germany S navy was a direct danger
to England at time when we were
getting rich by her free trade policy.
The English colonies had as many made
in Germany goods as those made in
England. Germany started the war, as
/ pointed out in November in the
Zukunft. We fought in guilty way
and by means Of propaganda made our
people believe they were justified in
the defense of their fatherland- The
German people were honest in their
belief. The militarists claimed steadily
that we were right and would win. |
pointed out we were wrong-the fact
that four fifths of the world Was
against us was a sure sign we we're
wrong--and that we would be defeat
ed But the government stupidly re-
fused to see the light. 1t is still refus-
ing to see the light.
Too Harsh At First
"when Wilson IS fourteen points
were first announced everyone said we
couldn't accept them because they
were too Harsh. Now they arc trying
to twist the fourteen points to meet
German views. There is no DOUBT in
my mind that under the fourteen
points AltaceL Lorraine goes to France.
But the government demands plebe-
scite. 1t would be the same even if a
p1ebescite were held, as it would go
overwhelmingly in favor of France.
Then Germany would claim the plebe-
scite was unfair because the french
were occupying that territory.
"There will always be something to
agitate about until we break entirely
away from the old and start brand
new policy. The German people think
abnormally now, if they think at all.
The war and hardships have made
them crazy They are gambling, dane
ing, seeking every pleasure possible
and spending money like water, figur-
ing that either the bolshevists or
Schiller (the minister of finanee) will
get it anyhow if they don t spend it..
The people are ready to do anything
in their fanaticism. If the emperor
wore nrt 50 cnwardlv and would re-
turn and call his 10000 officers about
him, everybody would harrah and say
the old times were better than the
present and demand him back.
Liberal Movement Coming
"But a genuinely liberal movement
is coming. Machine guns cannot wipe
out radical ideas. Give the people food
and work and bolshevism will be avoid
ed until a solid and reformed state is
established
Harden anticipates close and impor-
