SAMUEL WooDFILE,
First Lieutenant, Company M, Goth
Infantry.

Three acts of conspicuous daring In
one day near Cunel, France, October
II, 1913, won the Distinguished Serv-
Ice Cross for Lieut.. Woodfll. While
he was leading his company against
the enemy his line came under heavy
machine gun fire, which threatened to
hold up the advance. Followed by
two soldiers at twenty-five yards, this
officer went out ahead of his first line
toward machine gun nest and
worked his way around its flank, leav-
Ing the two soldiers in front. When
he got within ten yards Of the gun
1t ceased firing and four Of the enemy
appeared, three of whom were shot
by Lieut.. Woodfill. The fourth, an
officer, rushed at Lieut.. Woodfill, who
attempted to club the officer with his
rifle. After q hand-to-hand struggle,
Lieut.. Woodfill killed the officer with
his pistol. His company thereupon
continued to advance until shortly
afterward another machine gun nest
was encountered. Calling his men to
follow. Lieut.. Woodfill rushed ahead
of his line in the face of heavy fire
from the nest, and when several OF
the enemy appeared above the nest
he shot them, capturing three other
members of the crew and silencing the
gun. A few minutes later this officer,
for the third time, demonstrated con-
spicuous daring by charging another
machine gun position, killing five men
in one machine gun pit with his rifle.
He then drew his revolver and started
to jump into the pit when two other
gunners only few yards away turned
their gun on him. Failing to kill them
with his revolver, he grabbed a pick
lying near by and killed both Of them.
Inspired by the exceptional courage
displayed by this officer, his men
pressed on to their objective under
severe shell and machine gun fire.
Lieut.. Woodfill is married and lives
at 1877 Alexandria Pike, Fort Thomas,
KY.

Set Limit on Fortunes.

Budapest.-It has been insisted chat
the communism in Hungary is aimed
only at the aristocrats and capitalism
and not at the middle classes, as in
Russia. Hungary has put doctors,
bank directors and skilled laborers in
first class of citizens who are entitled
to first consideration. They wish to
fix the limit of individual fortunes at
$4,000 and would deal with the en-
tente rather than with the Russian Le-
nine. They are undecided about the
public debt.
