VOICES CONTEMPT
FOR FOE FIGHTERS
REPORTS OF FRATERNlziNo BY
AMERICAN AND FOE TROOPS
DENIED BY RED TRIANGLE
WORKER.

Chicago.-Reports of fraternizing OF
allied and foe troops following the
signing of the armistice on the western
front are denied In a letter from b. B.
Stecher, Racine, Wis.,, received at the
offices of the national war work coun-
: Gil, Y. NJ. G. A, here.
Stecher was q Y. M. @. A. worker
attached to the Ninety-first division.
He served for more than six months on
three fighting fronts-at st. Mihiel,
in Flanders and the Argonne. Twice
he was cited for bravery and awarded
the d. S. c.
Before going to France to serve as
"Y" worker Stecher was associated
with the Hamilton Beach Manufacture
Ing company at Racine. Formerly he
was member of the California Ma
tional Guard when he was living In
Los Angeles, Cal. His parents, Mr..
and Mrs. NJ. D. Stecher, live In Chi
cago.
Referring to reports of fraternizing
Of the troops Stecher says: Certain
~ there was no attempt or desire on
the part Of the men of our division to
fraternize with our much-despised op-
ponents. and had there been, the off,
GERS would not have permitted It As
a matter Of fact the guns were going
right up to the time the armistice went
into effect. You see, our boys have
had mighty good chance to size up
the caliber of the other side, and had
the Germans shown any Indications of
good craftsmanship In the fighting no
doubt we would feel some little re-
spect for them. Having been q dough-
boy myself In the past, and-now hav-
ing gone through all the fighting with
my division, believe my viewpoint Is
the same as that Of the majority OF
our division. and, personally, have
the utmost contempt for the German
soldier, his methods and his ideals"

THE NORTHWEST TEXAS CON-
FERENCE AND CENTENARY

have delayed reporting the results
of the Centenary campaign in the
Northwest Texas Conference for the
reason that correct reports have been
hard to obtain, and so much confusion
has arisen over credits that even now
we do not know just whore we stand
in that regard and will not until we
meet at conference in November.
However, the interesting feature IS
the new money reported. Our quota,
including credits. was S4s5,000. We
have raised in subscriptions, without
credits, S5O1 ,46s, and this does not
include Sunday Schools in many Of
