HE WANTS TO COME
HOME FROM GERMANY.

To the Editor of the Standard:
/ am a Butte boy with the army of
occupation in Germany and / have a
parody on "Silver Threads Among
the Gold" which / wish you would put
in your paper:
Darling / am coming back,
Silver threads among the black.
Now that peace in Europe nears,
I'll be home in seven years.
I'll drop in on you some night
With my whiskers long and white.
Yes the war is over, dear,
And we're coming home, | hear.
Home again with you once more
Say by nineteen twenty-four.
Once thought by now I'd be
Sailing back across the sea;
Back to where you sit and pine,
But I'm stuck here on the Rhine.
You can hear the gang all curse
''War is hell, but peace is worse" "
When. the next war comes around
In the front rank TIL be found.
I'll rush in again pell-mell,
Yes / will will like hell.
VIM. H. Judge.

BILLION is NEEDED
TO REBUILD RHEIMS

RHEIMS, France-The total cost
for the reconstruction of Rheims, ac-
cording to estimates just completed,
is placed at five billion francs, or
$1,000, 100000.
That is the figure of the indemnity
which the Germans imposed on
France at the end of the Franco
Prussian war and which they then
considered sufficiently large to ruin
France, commercially and industrial
ly for years to come.
In spite of this terrific cost, due in
part to the increased cost of building
materials resulting from the war,
Rheims is losing no time RISING from
it's ruins. Forthe reconstruction IF
the city 20 complete plans have been
submitted by leading artichtects Of
Paris, Rheims and other French cit
les. No one plan will be adopted but
the city will pick out OF each the
features that seem to most desirable,
and arrive at final plan which will
be approved by the city council.
Amongst the details already decid-
ed upon are big, broad streets for the
principal arteries; workingmen's
quarters, with gardens, and three
series of boulevards, like those of
Paris and Brussels, forming complete
circles, there being one inner circle
of boulevards, then a middle circle
and finally an outer circle
1t has also been decided that the
buildings encircling the cathedral,
nearly all of which are now in a COM
plete state of demolition, will be
cleared out entirely in order that the
cathedral may occupy vast open
square where all of it's beauty may be
seen from any point.

ANTI-AMERICAN CAMPAIGN IN
SIBERIA.

VladiyOStOk- Never since the land
ing of troops in August has there
been such widespread criticism of the
United States. Newspapers are full
Of TRADES and ingenious distortions
of facts calculated to SOW discord
among Americans, Russians and AM
erica's allies. 1t is unquestioned
there is an unquestioned campaign.
Some newspapers have been subsi-
died and are distinctly hostile to
the United States. The Russians have
been ready listeners and the legiti-
mate Russian press reprints and edi-
torializes on the fabrications that
have been put in circulation.
Americans are dubbed friends of
the Bolsheviki There is no effect
i've means of combating this propa-
ganda and the United States has few
champions.

GER ANSsT lucky THIS i. u
BATTLE WAS NOT FOUGHT

Paris -This. is The story of the
great battle that was never fought
1t adds support to the assertion
that the Germans collapsed through
a general military defeat. The al
lied offensive in Lorraine, which
would have forced the evacuation of
Metz, was scheduled for Nov. IA. Sew
en- American and 10 French divisions
had been summoned. Against this
formidable array the Germans had
only four divisions available, and two
of these were of poor grade The
story of the attack THAT was planned
is told in the Journal des Debats by
Henry Bidou, the military critic.
1T is no secret that the Franch
army had prepared last attack in
trusted to General Mangin between
Metz and Strasbourg, in the general
direction of Sarrebruck,'' he says.
This attack, by development north
ward would cut the lines of opera
ton Of the German armies and, sep
arating them from the Rhine, would
have driven them to a certain capitu-
lation.
Germans Had No Reserves.
"In this battle, perhaps the gravest
in history, what were the forces pres
ent? I am authorized to publish the
figures. On the allied side there were
% divisions, 10 French and 6 Ameri-
can; on the German side there were
four divisions, two of them landwehr.
When, steupefied by this inequality,
asked what at least were the re-
serves the German general staff had
at its command, | was told: Zero.
l asked what they could bring from
other fronts where they had been so
severely engaged; again l was told:
Zero.
There was the actual situation at
the beginning of November. The
German general staff was on the eve
of a nameless disaster. 1t had al
ready prepared the evacuation of
Metz But that was not enough. Sure
of being unable to resist, it put down
its arms and saved the debris of its
army by the armistice of Nov. II,
which was genuine military capitu
lation. Germany thus, on the eve of
the most inevitable and the most ir
reparable defeat, escaped from it by
giving up the fight, dropping its
sword and crying, 'Enough!' Was it
we'll done to grant this? That is not
up for discussion here. But for any,
one to come forward now with claim
that she was not whipped, that is
either the most prodigious ignorance
or the boldest imposture."
Thoroughly Thrashed Several Times.
According to Mr. Bidou, the people
of the Rhineland honestly believe
that the German army emerged un-
beaten from the war and that the
causes of the collapse were internal,
both political and economic. He
points out that, as a matter of fact,
the German army was soundly beat
en- on July Is, again on July 49,,
again on Aug. s, and thereafter suf-
fered a succession of disasters all
throughout August, September and
October.
From July to October the German
army lost the enormous total of AGO.
900 prisoners. 1t left on the field a
quarter of its total artillery, 5000
guns. Toward Oct 20 the last seven
teen divisions engaged had all been
led back to the fire after less than
three days rest. The tumble of units,
not only of divisions and regiments,
but of battalions, was unbelievable"
