"Let Us Have Peace"

And as this nation goes back to civil life, may it
never revert to civil strife. The day Of sectionalsm
has gone forever the compact sealed with the life
blood of our BEST first in the Spansh-Amercan War,
when such doughty Southern soldiers as General
"Joe" Wheeler led our united forces against
(then) foreign foe and again in this last Great World
War; when the boys above and below the Mason
and "Dxie" line stood shoulder to shoulder through
out the fray.
Let the day Of cIassism also pass. Reconstuc-
ton calls for cooperation. If there be such thing
as "cIass, let each "class" study with toeraton
both the needs and the aims Of the others, for "a
house divided against itself must a-and the future
of this country is UPWARD-not down.

SEES CHAOS IN GERMANY
UNLESS ALLIES GIVE AID
Writer Declares There Is Urgent
Need for. Financial and Com

by GORDON STILES.
Nv Cable to The Star and Chicago
Daily News. Copyright, 1919.
berlin, November 5.-The failure
of the allied powers to stabilize Ger
man financial and commercial affairs is
sweeping this country into chaos. The
coming winter bids fair to be only
shade less terrible than the last. and in
some respects it may be worse. The
shortage of coal will be acute and
new slump in the mark Is sending prices
skyward Sufficient food is not coming
in and railway travel is almost impos-
sible. 1t is not hard to believe what
the cutting off of all passenger trains
between November and Is will do to
business.
The government has chosen good
time to take such a step because in adj
dition to the facts that crops as have
been, must be moved, the period chosen
covers the anniversary Of the German
revolution. Lack of transportation will
hamper any undesirable demonstrations
which may be planned by disturbing ele-
ments.
There are signs Of growing unrest
among the poor, who face cold and
understanding on the part of England
and America is having an evil effect.
Americas attitude is especially HARM
full to Americans who are here to es-
tablish commercial relations. Talk Of
a new revolution on a largo scale, which
one hears constantly, should be dis
counted, but it Is not unlikely that the
next few months will bring forth some
disagreeable events.

LONDON. October 20 Correspond

Rightly or wrongly. it is argued
that the Presidents breakdown Is

BAKER
UPH0LDS BRAVERY
Of NEGRO TROOPS
Explains That Battalion of
368th Got Wrong Orders
From Runners"

According to Secretary Baker. the
failure of the Sd Battalion of the
36Sth United States Infantry to func-
ton properly under French command
in the Meuse-Argonne offensive in
September, 1918, was due mainly to
the fact that the battalion received
unauthorized orders from runners
to withdraw from the front.
The 36Sth Infantry was organized at
Camp Meade, Md. and it's member
ship included drafted men from the
District of Columbia and nearby
states. In the Meuse-Argonne cam
paign it was part Of a mixed brigade
commanded by a French officer. It's
field and staff officers were white and
its company officers and enlisted per-
sonnet were colored.

Secretary Bakers Comment.

Continuing on the report. Secretary
Baker said:
at is clear that the incidents arose
in the midst of the battle in which
the Sd Battalion was advancing un-
der most unusual conditions, and
where the judgment of officers un-
tried in battle, however well trained
might easily err; and as to the Two
Withdrawals. there is strongly sup
ported evidence that orders from
some quarter were carried forward
by runners directing the withdraw
ais, although orders had been given
after the noon withdrawal on the
28th that no withdrawal order not in
writing and signed by the battalion
commander should be obeyed. The
investigation showed that no such
written order had been issued.
The circumstances disclosed by a
justify many of the highly colored
accounts which have been given of
the behavior Of the troops in this
action. and they afford no basis at all
for any of the general assumptions
with regard to the action of colored
troops in this battle or elsewhere IL
France. On the contrary, it is to be
noted that many colored officers. and
particularly three in the very bat
talon here under discussion, were
decorated with distinguished service
crosses for extraordinary heroism
under fire.
81 authorize the publication of this
statement in order that justice may
be done to the officers. white and COL
ored. and to the men of this regi-
ment, and in the hope that a recital
Of the facts may make prejudice and
distorted discussion impossible in the
future"

tain In the Arabian army, has told
me picturesque story of a contract
she has concluded with the Emir
Feisul for relief work in Syria She
intends to establish a private orphan
age for 300 children in Damascus, and
if that proves successful. wants to
take over the municipal orphanage as
well. Both the organizations will be

five months in Damascus, from Janu-
airy to June this year, in charge of the

Armenian orphans driven into exile
by the Turks. During this time I built
up a modern American orphanage,
with the school and other rooms sup
piled with running water, plumbing
and similar things. 1t was the first
the Arabs had ever seen and they
were immensely interested in it. So
it happened that when the Red Cross
decided to cease it's labors in SYRIA
the Emir Feisul begged me to stay
and continue my work on behalf of
the Arab children. For some time l
hesitated. My plan had been to un-

Thorough Investigation.

The inspector general of the Army
made a thorough investigation of pub
lished criticisms against the regiment
for it's failure to hold it's position at
the German front.
Allegations were made that the
morale of the regiment had been
broken by race discrimination. that
the white officers fell short of their
duty and that the troops were not
properly equipped.
1.-THE ground over which the 36Sth In
fantry advanced" said the inspector
general. was extremely difficult.
Originally it was largely dense for
est. This forest had been blasted
away by four years Of fighting and
the underground which had grown up
made it in many places a dense
jungle. Throughout this jungle were
masses of wire entanglements of all
kinds and numerous trenches. All OF
this made advance and control OF
troops most difficult. The action in
which the regiment was engaged de-
veloped at times intense shell. ma
chine gun and rifle fire and subjected
these troops to a severe test The
regiment was not fully supplied with
wire cutters, maps and signaling de-
vices"
