PUSHED DOUGHBOYs TOO FAR

It may have been plain ignorance that led the Japanese enlisted men in Vladivostok to gaze inscrutably at American officers whom they passed without altering their bent-kneed, drag-footed shuttle in the least. It may have been their desire to show their knowledge that Japanese gen. eral was the ranking general of the allies, and that there were seven times as many Japanese soldiers in Siberia as there were Americans. It may have been desire to impress on their allies that they were as good as any one if not trifie better. Whatever it was, the deliberateness of Japanese non- -saluting was very noticeable.
 It may as well be admitted frankly that the Americans did not get along we'll with the Japanese in Siberia. Nor did the British get along we'll with them. There was constant fric- tion between the Japanese and Ameri- cans-not official friction; for officially the Japanese are as polite and as ceremonious and as obliging as it would be possible for anybody to be. The friction was almost entirely of an unofficial nature but it was con- stant friction.
 It may be that when the Japanese ipnoculate their soldiers against ty- phoid they seize the opportunity to inject into them something which changes their disposition toward the people of other nations. Individually of course, the soldiers still remain affable, obliging and polite.
 The American soldier is essentially peaceable. He gives other people most of the sidewalk without second thought ;and when the occasion seems to require it he lets other people have it all. Our doughboys were carefully instructed in the consideration due to our allies; so when three or four Japanese soldiers came up the street abreast and pushed doughboy into the gutter he didn't resent it. At first he didn't Eventually a change occurred. A doughboy can be crowded just so far, but no farther. There came day when three Japa- nese soldiers essayed to push little doughboy into the gutter. Then there was slight disturbance, a confused noise and cloud of dust. When the dust cleared away three little brown men were sitting in the middle of the road, wondering whether they mad been hit by a motor car or a street car, and the doughboy was proceed ing calmly along the sidewalk, occu- pying his customary modest portion of it. After that the crowding be- came less noticeable.

impossible to remember all the occa-

impossible to remember all the occa' | sions.
 The most brutal act Smith and his aides were guilty of, though, was the beating up of four men who had es- capped and had been taken into cus- today by the M. P.s and returned to the farm.
 They had been thrown into solitary confinement cells and Smith and Ma son and the sergeants in turn beat | those poor devils with their fists and blackjacks until they were nearly un- conscious, and their groanings could be heard all over the prison build ing and they were left there on bread and water, or "white wine and angel food" as Smith called it, for ten days When they say that most of those men were A. w. o. L. and desert CTS, they don't know what they are talking about. Men do not go A. w. o. L. with full pack, and fully half the men that came in each night were carrying full equipment-men who had missed their trains or whose trains had pulled out without warning that they were moving; and any one who has ridden in those "4O hommes or 8 chevaux" cars will bear me out that men were being left behind con tinually, and no ones fault but the train crews.
 Nearly half platoon of engineers were brought in one night, all with full packs, who had missed their train but had been picked up by the M. P.s and charged with being A. w. O. L.
 1 often wondered who was in charge of Vaers-Torsi, and who classified and sent the men to the farm. I used to wonder also why men with unhealed wounds and no signs of a bandage were sent to Farm No. 2 instead of to hospital, and were forced to march that long distance, often with out a rest.
 was at the trial of those officers and sergeants at Tours, and it may sound strange, but the fact remains, that those men were convicted not so much on the evidence of the prison CTS, as by the testimony of the men of Smiths own command, who hated him for the brutal acts he had been guilty of, and the treatment they themselves had received at his hands You may print this if you like, and anything I have said will be vouched for by any of the men of the detach, ment.
 Very respectfully, ORION M. FINK, Sergeant, Co. A, 158th Infantry.

FORMER GUARD AT PRISON
 FARM TELLS OF CRUELTIES

Charging that Lieut.. Wright and Col. Gmnstead were not aware of the brutal maltreatment of prisoners at Farm No. ?, near Chelles, France, because they never took the trouble to interview the prisoners, Sergeant Orion M. Zink, of Ray, formerly of Company A, 158th Infantry, and 9 guard at the farm. has contributed further material to the prison camp controversy.
 "Men were beaten so often and for such trivial offenses that it would be impossible to remember all the occa- sions," says Sergeant Zink, who states that he was at the trial in Tours of officers and sergeants, who are now serving sentences, and that their convictions were due more to the tes- timony of men in their own detach- ments than to statements of pris- oners.
 Sergeant zink also denies the truth of Col. Grinstead's statement that most of the men who came through the prison farms were A. w. o. l.. and deserters.
 "When they say that most of those men were A. w. O. L. and deserters they don't know what they are talking about" the sergeant states. "Men do not go A. w. o. L. with full pack, and fully half the men that came in each night were carrying full equip ment-men who had missed their trains or whose trains had pulled out without warning"
 Sergeant Zink makes many other sensational statements in a written statement made and signed in Ray

PERSHTNG'S BATTLE
 MAP ON EXHIBITION

There is now on exhibition in the United States National Museum at Washington what is probably the most interesting and valuable single record of Americas part in the great war-General Pershing's own secret battle map. It shows actual military results obtained by the armies. For instance, at the hour the armistice was signed, the United States forces were holding 145 kilometers of front, of which 134 kilometess were active. The map also shows the location of all divisions, both the enemy and al lied, on the western front; the correct battle line; commanding generals, To- cation of headquarters and boundaries down to include armies, and various other information concerning divisions -as, for example, whether they were fresh or tired.

TO REOPEN HUGO's HOUSE

When Victor Hugo moved, in 1883, into No. 6 Place des Vosges, Paris, the handsome facades of the twenty eight houses in the square were still exactly as Henri IV's builders had left them, time and the Paris climate having dealt kindly with their stone and brick work. They were no longer occupied, however, by court officials or cardinals, and the royal palace of the Tournelles had long since disap- peared. The district was no longer aristocratic, but it was dignified and quiet.
 Hugo's house is in an angle of the square, facing north. From his win. dows he looked across the garden to the Pavilion de la Reine, the central house on the north side, facing the Pavilion du Roi on the south. The light, graceful balconies, the elegant outline and decoration of the windows are all untouched, though the noble buildings are being brought by de. grees into commercial occupation.
 The poets house now belongs to tho City of Paris and is kept as a mu scum of souvenirs. It was closed early in the war, and is now waiting for whitewash and clean hangings, but an order to view can be easily ob tained from the Hotel de Vile, De partment des Beaux Arts. Hugo'i bedroom is exactly as it was when tht poet lived in the house, and rooms ano staircase are full of objects connect ed with his book. Many of his latel books were written here between 1S3; and 1848, in the pleasant, simply fur nished study that you will see.

A Dogs Tale
BY Snookums

Why is road? Now that's a
question l never could answer. Being
dog, l have been able to get about
wherever I want to go without roads.
Of course 1 can see why fellow
who has to drive a wagon, and come
to town with load, and take load
back home, might want road, but l
never could see what use a. man has
for a wagon, and they say they did
not have any wagons in this country
until Columbus came over.
The Indians did not have any wag-
ons and the Indians got along all
right. l may be prejudiced against
roads, because whenever / go out on
what they call roads around here,
some fellow in a Ford car tries to
run over me.
The boss says we have no roads to
speak of, and yet there is a lot of
talk about roads. l have talked to
the horses and mules hitched around
the square and they all agree with
the boss that we have no roads, so |
have come to the conclusion that we
have only talk about roads, and that
is harmless. 1t amt even catchin'
so far as a dog is concerned.

ELECTRIC RAILWAYS
INU. S. FACE CRISIS

Electric railways of the country
have reached a crisis. They cannot
continue operations unless relief in
the shape of additional revenues is
given them, according to statements
OF street railway representatives laid
before the Federal Electric Railway
Commission here today.
Prevalent antagonism" was de-
nounced as the greatest wrecker Of
service by John H. Pardee, president
Of the American Electric Railway As
ISOLATION. He declared that unless
better understanding is effected be-
tween the companies and the public
further deterioration of service is
certain
Pardee asserted the Government
had taken everything and given
nothing to the electric railways"
The Government took control Of
our labor" he said, raising wages
as much as 100 per cent; il took COM
mand of our fuel supply. fixing the
price we must pay, and it prescribed
the service we must give. But it
gave US nothing in the way Of tn
creased prices for the product we
have to SELL
Pardee said he was aware that the
commission was without power for
peremptory action or to go further
than to offer recommendations. But
after hearing the case of the street
railways" it was argued that the
commission should attempt determi-
nation of q national policy in so far
as a governmental attitude toward
the roads is concerned.
The commission, which was appoint
ed by the President at the sugges-
tions Of the Secretaries of Commerce,
Labor and Interior, expects to make
detailed study Of the transporta-
tion problems Of many cities, accord
ing to E. F. Sweet, vice chairman and

The Red Cross

The World War has immortalized the Red Cross
and has made loved and idolized by the whole world
as it locally because of Florence Nightingale of
the Crimean War humanitarian service, and in the
Franco Prussian War.
The creation of the Red Cross came at Geneva Con-
vention August p, 1864, when different govern
ments agreed to cooperate in the establishment of
permanent committee, for international work. Each
nation pledged itself to work with the other nations
in caring for the sick and wounded of all countries
alike and never to fire on doctor, nurse, or ambu
lance that bore the sign of the Red Cross In 1873,
after the Franco-Prussan War; because of the demon
straton of its miraculous efficiency in that Clara
Barton returned from France and led to the intro
duction of the Red Cross in the United States.
The Red Cross has as definite mission in peace in
war; although it's deeds of mercy not spectacu-
lar and appealing 1t is, however, of even more inn
portance that in times of peace the public notably the
younger and girls should be thrillingy inspired
