One year ago today the Thirtieth
division went into action on the Of
fensive for the first time.
1t was an attack in the Ypres sec
tor and was carried out in coniunc-
ton with the Fourteenth (British)
and Twenty seventh New York; di-
visions. Previous to this time little
was known of the lighting qualities
of the American troops on the Brit
ish front. and the seasoned British
troops hesitated about going into &C
ton with green men who had not
received their baptism of fire.
The sector in which the ThirtietE
went into action marked the spo
where the German offensive was
broken. and every inch of the grount
before the Tennesseans and Carolin
ians had been taken by the advanc
ing tide of gray clad troops afte
hard fighting, and they had no In
tentions of giving it up. They wer
ordered to hold at any cost,
The attack was launched after
brigade of Australian artillery hai
thrown over heavy barrage.

Gen. Whitaker Doesn't Believe
Senator Big Enough to
Cope With Matter.

A reporter for The News called on
Gen. M. N. Whitaker for a further
statement about Senator Shields po-
sition on the league of nations and
the treaty of peace. and he said:
II have nothing further to say for
the present except thisa II Senator
Shields position voices the views OF
the democrats of Tennessee, then
there is nothing to be done; but II
his views are contrary to our vH"|,.
then we had better get busy or be
content to be misrepresented about
the most important matter in the his
tory of the world
Gen. whitaker was then asked II
Senator Shields had replied to his let
ter, and he said: mo; no further
than that his secretary has acknowl-
edged receipt of it, just as he would
acknowledge receipt of an unimpor-
tant letter by his steuographer."
Further than this the general re-
fused to be interviewed but it was
plain to the reporter that the ger
eral felt that Senator Shields was not
quite big enough to pass up such an
important matter through his secre-
! tor

Jim VANSANT
dies In FRANCE
While Not Officially Confirmed
There Seems Little Doubt rs
To His Fate

DR.. J. A. Vansant yesterday re-
ceived notice Of the death in Ro-
maigney France, Of his son, Lieut..
James Vansant. The news came in
the form of letter Of coincidence to
DR.. and Mrs. Vansant from the
hostess at a Y. M. G. A. home, the
writer taking for granted that Lieut..
Vansants parents had been mott
fled of his death. No particulars
we're given. kilograms to the War
Department and a cablegram to Gen.
Henry 7. Allen in France, we're sent
yesterday in an effort to learn fur
Their particulars. Lieut. Vansant is
about twenty-five years old and is
the younger son Of DIR. and Mrs.
Vansant. He, received his commits
sion at the First Officers Training
School, and was stationed for some
time at Camp Dodge, later being
transferred to Camp Funston. At the
close Of the war young Vansant re-
enlisted in the regular army, going
overseas in July of this year and
since that time serving with the
Army of Occupation in France. In a
letter to his mother written on No
vember first, Lieut.. Vansant stated
that he was in charge Of a detach-
ment doing reconstruction work. The
letter from the Y. M. C. A. hostess
was written on November 10, and it
is certain that young Vansant met
his death between those two dates.
The news of this young mans
death spread quickly and a groom
was cast over the entire city. He was
a splendid young gentleman, with a
brilliant future before him, and was
one of the favorites among his old
associates here at home. Jim Van
SAINT was big-hearted, whole-souled
boy, possessed with many splendid
traits of character and loved and adj
mired by all who knew him. Our
hearts bleed and cry aloud i'm sym
patty for the bereaved.
