Escaped Unscathed
War Diary Is Full of Tales
of Heroism, and All Are
Accompanied by Affda-
Wits; Every Man Cited

Special Correspondence
CAMP MERRITT, n. j., March IL
When final action is taken on recon-
mendations for D. S. C.s and citations
every man of the original complement
of c Company, 1O7th Infantry, will
be officially honored for valor. The
war diary of the company is full of
tales of heroism, each accompanied by
atfidavits of at least two witnesses.
OF the 164 men who went against
the Hindenburg line on September %,
15l have been mentioned in the
casualty lists, almost 92 per cent. On
that fateful day thirty-four c Com
pany men were killed. Only twenty
answered the roll that night. A cor
poral was the highest non-commis-
stoned officer fit for service.
Six of the company's members have
received D. S. C.s. Seventeen more
have been recommended, with sixty
one recommendation for citations. Of
$50 men from the old 7th Regiment,
but thirty-seven are now with the
company, while of ninety seven men
from c Company, 1st Regiment, Ma
tional Guard, only twenty-five remain.
Eleven men of the entire company came
through unscathed.
Their Bravery Candidate
The men of c Company are putting
forward as their candidate for the
bravest man brought out by the war
Sergeant Joseph Cassidy, of the old 7th.
Some one who knew the lay of No
Mans Land was wanted to lead and
direct the twenty-one tanks on the
morning of the Goth. 1t was one of the
most hazardous details that could be
undertaken.
Dawn disclosed to view of Germans
and Americans the stalwart figure of
ronchalant youth strolling twenty-five
yards in front of the fire splitting
tanks. He bore his helmet aloft on a
cane to guide the iron monsters From
time to time he would wave his free
hand like traffic COP at busy cor
ner. He was closest to the Germans
Of all the Yanks in that sector. He
seemed to bear charmed life. Ser
geant Cassidy was cited for the D. S.
c. for this exploit.

COBLENZ, March II 1.-Hymen,
~ god of marriage, went before
an American army firing squad
to-day.
General Dickman, commanding
in the area of occupation, issued
an order to chaplains not to tie
nuptial knots for any soldiers, Y.
NJ. c. A. girls or Red Cross
nurses. All marriages are barred.
Chaplain Esterbrook brought
up the matter. A Y. NJ. C. A. girl
desired to marry. At first it was
decided that weddings might be
permitted, but that they would
come under the German law. Then
the prospect of a mad scramble
among 100000 young American
soldiers for the few American
girls within their reach appalled,
the commanders, and so marriage
was prohibited
The wise men at headquarters
decided that courtship was a bad
thing for the army, and the order
to the chaplains places much en-
phasis on that point.

masse early in April there was an i'm

France, England and Italy. Now that
they are assured Of an carly start, men
and officers OF the division are eager
to see az much as possible Of Europe
before they take the boats down the
Rhine toward home.
The present plan is to send the Rain
bow home via Rotterdam, but that NAV

at Antwerp instead.
The regulation medical examinations
have begun. Temporary BUILDINGS IN

been erected to destroy the last lnger-

time name, has been dropped through
out the entire American Expcditionarv
Force. Officially and otherwise the
vermin are now designated plainly ax
lice. This is psychological expert

During the war it was no disgrace to
have coolies, but now in the peaceful
cleanliness is easily achieved, the men
are informed by their officers that
cootie il lousc, and TO have lice il II

Want Only
900 Parade Seats

THERE are $4,000 seats on the
n grandstand from which the
families and friends Of men in
the 9th are to watch the $1,000
march past. OF these all-too-few
seats the Board of Aldermen
want only 6,700.
Alderman Haubert introduced a
resolution to the effect that each
alderman be granted one hundred
seats on the stand, yesterday.
The board referred it to the spe-
cial committee on the parade.
Each of the men of the 9th
has received two tickets, which
does away with $4,000 seats.
Mothers and wives and children
of those in the hospitals and those
who lie dead in Flanders must
also be seated. A large delega
ton of South Carolinians, includ
ing the Governor, must be cared
for. In addition host of upstate
officials must be furnished with
seats.
Still, each alderman wants only
one hundred.

Peace Basis Ordered
For L. S. Air Service.
Effective March 81

WASHINGTON, March 11.-Coinci-
dent with the replacing of Major Gen
eral William l.. Keniy as director of
military aeronautics of the army by
Brigadier General William Mitchell. it
was learned to-day that orders have
been issued for the cessation of aviation
training at all fields in the United
States except two, to be designated by
Major General Charles T. Menoher, di-
rector of the air service. These in
structions take effect March Is, and
thereafter other fields than the two to
be selected will have to do only with
the storage and maintenance of equip
ment.
All the aviation personnel that can
be spared will be discharged by March
81, and the fiers retained at the two
training fields to be kept in operation
will be, so far as practicable, those who
desire to remain in the permanent
military establishment
Policy Of Reduction
These orders represent q new effort
to keep rehabilitation up to a sched-
ule and get the total of discharges up
to the 1000 600 mark by the end of the
present month. The cancellng of
General Kenly's wartime rank and his
assignment to his own branch of the
service, the field artillery, in his per
manent rank Of colonel was said to be
in line with the policy of reduction all
along the line.
The orders also were interprcted as
signalling the new status Of the air
service which is developing and the
fact that General Menoher has actu-
ally taken hold of the entire service,
both production and operation, after
devoting nearly two months to study
ing the situation, during which time
he did not interfere with the methods
he found on his return from France,
whore he commanded the AID (Rain-
bow Division.
For Peace Purposes
The appointment of General Menoher
after the resignation of John ID. Ryan,
formerly civilian director and assistant
secretary in charge Of aviation mat
ters, meant, it was said that the air
service was to be combined for peace
purposes under single head, since the
bulk of production problems ceased
with the termination of hostilities IT
also meant that two major generals
we're assigned to this consolidated ser
vice, and ACCOUNTS, in the opinion Of
officers, for General Kenly's return to
his regular army rank. General Mitch
ell was an aviator before the war when
the service was under the Signal Corps,
and virtually all Of his duty in the
army has been in the aviation branch.
