GENERAL MAKES SHORT AD-

IN WASHINGTON.
ALL DID THEIR SHARE

WAS EARNED BY vALoR
OF MEN.
Western Newspaper union New. Service

Western Newspaper Union News Service
Washington, Sept. 19.-Addressing
joint session of Congress, in ac-
acknowledgement of the formal vote OF
thanks rendered him, General Per
shing said in part:
IL am deeply sensible of the privi-
lege of appearing before you as rep
resentative of the American eXpedi-
tionary forces and am filled with emo
tion at the sentiments that have been
expressed This honor affords me pro-
found gratitude as a recognition OF
the achievements of our splendid
army. In receiving at your hands an
expression of the approval of our peo-
pie am richly rewarded.
THE burdens that befell to the lot
of our soldiers have been heavy and
the way beset by many obstacles, but
faith in the righteousness of our cause
and trust in Almighty God have given
us courage and inspiration.
"The trials of battle demanded
Spartan endurance and utmost self
sacrifice. Never have men faced IL
hardship and never have troops shown
finer spirit of willingness or more
resolute purpose.
"The might of America lay not only
in her numbers and her wealth, but
also in the spirit of her people. While
every man who went To France cour-
ageously did his part, behind him were
to, fn11 al
supported by loyal people who de-
prived themselves TO maintain our
armies and succor our allies.
ITO you, gentlemen of the Congress,
we owe the existence and maintenance
of our armies in the field. With
clear conception of the magnitude of
the struggle, you adopted the draft as
the surest means of utilizing our man
power; you promptly enacted wise
laws to develop and apply our re-
sources to the best effect. You appro-
priated the fabulous sums required for
military purposes. You 1naue pos
sible the organization and the opera
ton by which victory was achieved
"Throughout the war the President
reposed in me his full confidence and
his unfailing support simDified my
task. The secretary of war made re-
peated visits to the front, and | am
deeply grateful for his wise counsel.
Under him the various staffs, bureaus
and departments, with all their per-
sonnel, are deserving of especial ac-
acknowledgement for the ability with
which their problems We're met. The
officers and soldiers who served at
home are entitled to their full share
in the victory.
"Our navy performed brilliant
part in transporting troops and sup
plies and in maintaining our sea COM
munications. In this arduous service
the generous assistance of the seamen
of Great Britain deserves our lasting
appreciation.
"A special tribute is due to those
benevolent men and women who min
istered to our soldiers at home and
abroad The welfare societies, main
tained by a generous public, gave us
invaluable aid. In our hospitals the
surgeons and nurses served with
skill and fidelity"
He concluded with n eulogy of the
allies and a declaration that the rec
ord of America in the war would be
n treasured heritage for posterity.

HOLTON AIR EXTRA
State Journals by Airplane This
Evening.
Third Kansas Town Favored
Three Planes Here.

Airplane extras of the State Journal
go to Holton this evening in care of
Lieut.. Frank C. Stanford. of Independ-
ence. Kan. Five hundred papers will
be carried the twenty-six miles in the
cockpit of Stanfords big Curtiss
"Canuck" plane. Delivery of the
papers will be within thirty minutes
from the time the edition is off the
presses
Lieutenant Stanford flew into To-
peka Thursday evening for the. pur-
pose of having his plane repaired The
big motor which pulls the plane thru
the air was carboned and Stanford
came to Topeka to have it removed.
He had read in the papers that To-
peka was in a fair way to become an
airplane center and that the capital
city of Kansas was maintaining an
up-to-date landing field. Lieutenant
Stanford accompanied by Homer
Adam, his mechanic, landed at Wash
burn field late Thursday afternoon.
Holton is the third town in Kansas
to receive its State Journals via the
air. Eskridge and Baldwin have been
visited already and the citizens there
have received their special souvenir
editions. Delivery of newspapers by
airplane is a novelty anywhere. The
State Journal is the first newspaper in
Kansas to be delivered by plane. and
il is thought % be only a matter of
time until regular editions of the big
dailies will be delivered to subscribers
in nearby towns via the sky route.
Shows What Can Be Done.
The airplane deliveries of today are
but the feelers of the most progressive
newspapers searching for the latest
and fastest and most reliable method
of getting the latest news to the sub
scribers in the shortest possible time.
At present airplane delivery of news
papers is in its infancy and the State
Journal is bearing its share of the bur-
den of experiment. The deliveries of
today are made just to show what may
be done within the next few years.
Three Birds at Washburn.
At Washburn field Thursday night
three of the giant man-made birds
rested with wings outstretched. One
of these planes is the one of Lieuten-
ant Stanford and is distinguished by
the big number 1852" painted on the
underside of the wings This number
is the number of the lieutenant's pilot
license.
The other two planes belong in To-
peka. One of them is the Lieutenant
Weber plane. the one which made
the first two deliveries of the State
Journal in Kansas. The word ITO
peka" is to be painted on the wings
of this plane today.
The third plane of the trio is the
one of the Topeka Aerial Transporta-
ton company. 1t is the same model
plane as the one of Lieutenant STAN
ford and is already labelled with the
name of Topeka" The pilots of this
plane are Harry Buff and Merle

night by American army intelligence
officers in connection with an alleged
plot to defraud the government of mill

tition at auctions of army supplies.

where salvaged army material was
sold. On some days. the auction sales
amounted to fifteen and twenty mil
lion marks. most of the material going
to men alleged to belong to the organ
ization in question. American soldiers
in plain clothes sent into the crowds at
auction sales, according to the officers,
repeatedly were offered large sums of
money if they would not bid against
members of the organization. At

ton of the treaty for several years
because OF this clause and some time
ago the amount of the damages to be
paid was reduced to $1,000, 900 but in
consideration OF the elimination of the
regret clause. the original sum of $685.

Attorney Lucking quoted Mr.. Ford
as advocating a world view point
rather than the national view point.

FLY To BALTIMORE
Forty Homer Pigeons VIII Be
Released Here Tomorrow.
They VIII "Take Or From the
State House.

Forty homing pigeons will be re-
leased on the state house grounds to-
morrow morning at Z o'clock for a
flight to Baltimore. Md They were
shipped by the Monumental City Con-
course association to E. E. Brayman,
manager of the American Railway Ex-
press company here, with the request
that he release them. Local pigeon
experts declare that these are evident-
ly the cream of the country's birds, as
no pigeon owner would send birds on
a 1,200-mile flight unless he had the
utmost confidence in them
The letter requesting Brayman to
release the birds was signed by l. r.
Schmitt, race secretary of the asso-
citation 1t is believed that probably
twenty persons have entered birds in
the big race. They were received in a
huge wicker cage built especially for
the purpose and appear to be in the
best of health. Unless there is a
strong north or northeast wind blow
ing, the pigeons will be released on
the state house grounds just south OF
the building. Many local pigeon fan
ciers are expected to be on hand to
witness the start of one of the longest
flights ever attemDted

PEPPERS OR ROBBERS?
At Any Rate, Fred Wilson Proves
That ProwIer Is Sprinter.

Fred Wilson. who lives at 1859 Fill
more street, is in doubt as 20 whether
a midnight prowler in his neighbor-
hood is a peeper or a burglar. but he
has no doubts as to his ability to hop
and run like a Kansas jackrabbit.
The other night Mr.. and Mrs.
Charles L. Mitchell, who live next
door south to the Wilson's, were en-
tertaining. The house was afire with
lights and alive with music and dane

porch trying to fight the intense heat
to slumber when he heard footsteps
on the Mitchell cinder driveway.
Glancing down toward the ouse Will
son saw a man in a dark shirt and a
cap silhouetted against the bright light
of a window.
He watched the figure for mo-
ment and noticed that the man was
crowd indoors, Then the figure moved
to another window and maintained his
watch
Wilson arose. took his 20 revolver
from a dresser drawer and spotted
the man from a bedroom window.
Finally he reached to unfasten the
screen in hopes that he would have a
better view and aim in case of neces-
sity. The screen lurched forward and
the buEglar-peeper below jumped back
in a shadow.
Whats the big idea ?" Wilson
yelled.
The man gave a jump, alighted run
ming, and started toward the NJ tchell
back yard. Wilson turned loose with
his "22," just to frighten him. 1t was
enough. The fleeing figure leaped
into the air. dove into the trees and
disappeared. Clothes lines. shrubbery,
fences and garage failed to stop him.
He tore thru them all.
