LINER PATRICIA
Cowboys and Ranchmen
From Texas and Okla.
Also Back
SEVERAL WIN MEDALS

SEVERAL WIN MEDALS

Texas and Oklahoma troops of the
36th Division, with the divisional
commander, Maj.-Gen. William R..
Smith, arrived Wednesday by the
transport Patricia and were welcomed
by Texan and Oklahoma delegations
headed by Gov. ]. V. A. Robertson
of Oklahoma. The troop commander
aboard was Brig. Gen. Pegram Whit
worth of the Seventy-frst Infantry
Brigade.
Of the 1000 Indians in the division
$50 got back by the Patricia; also a
large number of cowpunchers and
.ranchmen. There were two Okla
homans who captured the Congress
sional Medal, both of Company F.,
142nd Infantry, Lieut.. Harold l.. Tur-
ner and Sergeant Samuel H. Sampler,
They were part of platoon that en-
tered st. Etienne last October and
tried to drive out machine gun nest.
The platoon lost all it's officers, and
Turner, then a corporal, and Sampler,
buck private, took command, reor-
ganizing the men and leading them
against the Germans. Turner, with
a squad, took so prisoners and Samp-
Ter 28.
Commander M. X. Metcalf, skipper
of the Patricia, was i'm charge of the
destroyer O'Brien in the war and ac-
counted for one submarine. He was
asked to tell how it happened and he
said:
"Well, it was just combination of
circumstances that worked in our ia
vor."
Asked to be more explicit Com
mander Metcalf explained thusN "You
see, our destroyer was the O'Brien
and we were operating in the Irish
Sea, and you can't beat combina-
tion like that"
The cruiser, st. Louis, which dock
ed in Brooklyn, brought home %
army ambulance sections of 32 Off
GERS and 1,226 men, under command
of Major Charles X. Berle of the
Army Medical Corps, who were with
the French army The man with
the most decorations in the outfit is
Private Albert Sidney Hartwell,
whose mother is French and father
American. He is 81 and wears the
Distinguished Service Cross, the
Medaille Militaire and the Croix de
Guerre with palms. He was twice
wounded and gassed. His father,
who is Al served in the American
forces as veterinary.
The st. Louis passed a school of
whales on Friday, and according to
the seventh mate they came so close
to the cruiser that one of the dough-
boys who was trying to pat the near
est whales back fell overheard, fore
ing the ST. Louis to put back and pick
him up after he had taken little ride
on the whale.

FOREST FIRE
Farm of the Waterbury Last Block
Company Has so Acres Burned
Over

WATERBURY, June Fifty
acres were burned over in what
threatened to become a serious forest
fire on the farm of the Waterbury
Last Block company, three miles from
the village.
State Forester w. G.. Hastings,
Fire Warden Philip Shonio, and some
so men were called to the scene, and
heroic work finally stopped the fire,
which at one time was within five
rods of the house.
Last year the timber was cut down
for pulp wood, and it was what is
known as "slash" that the man on the
place thought he would burn up to-
day, when the fire spread rapidly and
got beyond control. The manager,
j. B. Elderdge, was finally called, and
the fire warden, Mr.. Shonio, who was
in Montpelier, and finally the State
Forester. Trucks from the village
also went to aid in the work. Twenty
men are guarding the place.

FALSE ALARM
Alarm is Supposed to Have Been
Rung by Boys and Both Trucks
Went Out

A general alarm was rung in this
morning from the corner of Cliff and
Mt. Pleasant streets and Chief Mar
den turned out with the chemical
truck which was soon followed by the
hook and ladder truck, and the sup
posed scene of fire was soon reached,
but all was serene and peaceful with
no evidence of burning buildings or
fire trapped people.
No one seemed to know about ring
ing in an alarm and the appearance
of the fire trucks was the first init
nation to residents on these streets,
that that section of the village was
the supposed center of confagration.
1t is thought that the alarm was
rung in by some boys "just for the
fun of the thing. This, however, is
not funny, but serious matter, and
while Chief Marden good naturedly
viewed the call, repetition of such
an offence may result far differently.

LABOR MENACING
FRENCH CABINET
THREATEN CRISIS
To Halt Spread of Strikes
Quick Concessions are
Planned
WILL EXCITE MASSES
Will Yield by Granting
to Political Criminals
Amnesty
WILL EXCITE MASSES

PARIS, June THE present cha
otic condition of the French labor
world appears to have had a roper
cussion in the Government, creating
a veritable interior crisis the conse-
quences whereof are fraught with Sc
rious possibilities. 1t is difficult to
say at this time whether this ag-
gravation of an already serious Cab
met crisis will cause a shakeup in the
ClemenGeau Government, since it is
realized on all sides that to recognize
the Cabinet at this stage would in
evitably lead to a reopening of fact
ors that might lessen the benefits
France already has obtained.
The French Bolshevists, however,
like their Russian brethren, never
stop to calculate the effect of their
actions on the country at large, and
they may continue to excite the mass
es to a point where serious difficulties
will be met.
Quick action following consulta-
ton of the Cabinet may hinder the
lightning-like spread of strikes. 1t
has been decided to make immediate
conversions to organized labor. The
Government is well aware that the
present movement is political rather
than economic.
One of the first demands on which
the Government will yield will be that
of granting a general amesty for po-
litical criminals. Another will be
the adoption of liberal labor legisla-
ton, especially in matters concerning
The Government is deal
ing with the masses this time through
the press and not through labor lead
ers, as formerly. This is part of the
Governments plan to separate the
Bolshevist ringleaders from the mass
es, which, spurred on by number of
follow wherever they
are led.

Revenue of Big Lines Far
Under Government
Guarantee
MAY INCREASE RATES
Director General Believes There Will
Be Heavy Volume of Traffic
This Year

WASHINGTON, June THE net
operating revenues of the railroads of
the United States under Government
control for the month of April fell
far behind the Government guarantee
of returns to these roads, according
to figures being complied by the In
terstate Commerce Commission.
These figures, which will be made
public in a day or two, show de-
felt for April of $41, ,145,000 below
the standard return, OF the rental
guaranteed by the Government.
The April deficit, added to that for
January, February and March, makes
a total of $174,413,000 which the Rail
road Administration is behind on the
four months of the present year. On
this basis the loss to the Government
for the year would be more than a
billion dollars.
Many railroad men, some members
of the |. C. c., and other officials are
confident taht a further increase in
lttCCo 10 IlCCIOoetI w IilSCC CilC
tion and place the roads on the basis
of their pre-war earnings before they
are returned to private control.
There are many indications that Di-
rector-General Hines is coming to this
conclusion, though he is not yet pre-
pared to recommend any action in
this direction. The Director-G General
believes that there will be such q,
heavy volume of traffic in the coun-
try when the bumper crops begin to
move that the roads will be able to
make at least the standard return.
Even on this basis it would appear
from speech he made in ST. Louis
that the deficit for the year will run
to $300,000,000. He indicated that il
might become necessary to raise rates
to increase revenues to that extent.

The Council of Four is Seriously Considering
Modification in the German
Treaty Terms
CHIEF OF GERMAN TREATY DELEGATION
GOES TO BERLIN FOR CONSULTATION
France Believes the Germans Will Not Sign the Treaty
and That The Delays are FavOring
The Huns

PARIS, June From reports it
seems that there is a growing senti-
ment in Council of Four that altera-
tions must be made in the treaty, but
in what particulars it hasn't been in
dicated. Won Brockdorf-Rantzau,
head Of German peace mission, left
Versailles last night for Germany. He
is expected to return Sunday. French
official circles are said to expect Ger
mans to refuse to sign terms, and it
is pointed out that as delay would
favor the Germans, there is necessity
for haste in bringing exchanges to
close. More hopeful sentiment is said
to be apparent in Berlin. Italian
claims to Eastern Adriatic territory
also are causing some uneasiness in
conference circles. Italian parlia-
ment will meet June 18 and Premier
Orlando is demanding that settlement
be reached by then.
There is every evidence that leading
figures of the peace conference in
Paris are endeavoring to hasten de-
livery of allied reply to Germany's
counter-proposals. According to ad-
vices positive instructions have been
given by the Council Of Four 70 all
commissions working on reply to
complete their report by Monday. If
this order is carried out, it IS prob
able reply will be framed early in
week and will be Immediately present
ed to enemy delegates.

Home of Nymphs.

Near the cape Of Shima. in Japan,
there is a village the name of which in
Japanese means "The settlement of
Nymphs." Woman in this village is
the predominant partner. The chief
industry is pearl fishing and the
women are the fishers. The men stay
at home and do the work.
