sturdy group of General Organs s

home from the battlefelds of France
yesterday on the Holland America
liner Nieuw Amsterdam and landed
in a drizzle.
1t was q slow but comfortable pas
sage across the Atlantic and for this
the men were thankful. They had good
food, hot Dutch rolls and the best of
coffee.
They had heard about the Leviathan
and the sardine accomm odations be-
tween decks allotted to soldiers and
they were just as we'll pleased that
they had come home comfortably,
though belated, even if they did miss
the big noise accorded their leader
and their mates on Thursday.
"Say, my friend" said one of the
infantrymen Of the 10th TO war
worker, 1--WE just scratched off note
to friend of mine with the army of
occupation and I wish you'd post it as
soon as you go ashore. He'll come
back as a casual and think he'll have
a chance to pick his ship, and | want
to give him tip to play the Nleuw
Amsterdam as a winner. We've had
the best chow and sleeping space on
this packet that we had since we left
home nearly a year ago."
1900 Officers and Men Aboard

than 1900 officers and men, which in
cluded the 107th Infantry headquar-

25O,Oc0 Men Demobilized;
Arms Held by Government

Tbs extreme seriousness of the stu
alton which faced the Dutch govern
ment lay in the fact that the army.
which then numbered about $4,000
men, was so permeated with Bolshe-
vism as to be partly undependable-a
TACT which the Du:~. government rec
ognlzed when it demobilzed some 25O.-
Oo0 soldiers, or about two thirds of the
total force, the moment the crisis had
been passed. The demobillzed troops
were not allowed to retain their guns.
1t had been the Dutch practice to LET
soldiers retain their arms upon de-
mobilization, which accounts for the
tact that such large proportion of
the Bolshevik workers were armed
The facts concerning this dramatic
plot have been given to me for publica-
ton the first time outside of Holland
by man who, during the entire period
of apprehension, was an official Of tha
government, and who has just resigned
from a high office in the Dutch ma
tional administration. His position
was such as to place MIN in command
OF the exact facts. He had a great
deal to do with distribution Of the
food supplies that acted as one of the
means of defeating the plot.

LONDON, March 9.~Holland was
marked for capture by the Bolsheviki
three and one-half months ago in one
OF the most spectacular plots ever con-
celved by political rcvolutionists. LARGE
masses of the Dutch industrial popula-
ton were thoroughly organized and
we'll armed for all uprising, which was
to have been under the leadership of
David Wynkoop, head of the Com
munist party OF Holland, an organiza
ton which polls about $4,000 votes.
The plot was developed during the
carly days of the German revolution
and was to have been brought to a eli
max upon the success of the extremists
in Germany. Its failure was due to
these three counteractive measures:
First-The prompt discovery Of the
plot by the Dutch government, which
at once proceeded to organize and
arm the middle classes for defence.
Second-The failure of the extrem-
lists, or Spartacans, to capture the
Berlin government
Third-The timely arrival from

WASHINGTON, March 9.-The indi
rect charge that former Acting Judge
Advocate General Samuel r. Ansell
was prompted by selfish motives in his
criticism of military justice as prac-
tlsed by the army, and that he did not
until November, 1917 advance any
remedies for the present system when
opportunity existed year previous, is
made in a letter to Secretary Baker
by Major General Crowder, Judge Ad-
vocate General made public TO day.
In the letter General Ansell is vigor-
ousiy criticised for methods employed
IN bringing about the order directing
HIM to assume the functions of the
Judge Advocate General, and sharp is
sue is taken by General Crowder with
the views held by the former Acting
Judge Advocate on military justice.
General Crowder's letter was in re-
ply to one from the Secretary of War
who sought an answer to the mass of
criticism that has been directed to the
War Departments administration of
military justice.
Asserting his conviction that grounds
for complaint against the system of
military justice did not exist, and that
as organized by the statutes of Con-
gress and the Presidents regulations
the system was essentially sound, Sec
retary Baker wrote General Crowder
asking a statement of the attitude Of
the War Department toward the criti-
cism as a reinsurance to soldiers fam
lies.
The statement in reply by General
Crowder declares that efforts were
made by the War Department early in
1918 to have Congress pass a law Civ
ing the President authority to review
all court martial cases, but shat the pro-
posed legislation died in the same mill
tary committee. General Crowder points
out that the introduction in the army
of methods employed in civil tribunals
would be disastrous and would have the
effect Of entirely destroying discip-
line A strong defence Of the officers
charged with the administration of mill
tary justice is contained in the letter
The letter reads, in part:

added.
Wheat Situation Described
Mr.. Hoover was asked whether the
United States government would lose
the Sl,0oO000,000 appropriated to sup
port the guarantee for next years
wheat crop. He said:
THE question Of government loss, if
any, will rcvolvc around several differ
ent factors: First, whether we or the
world will have any surplus from the
1918 crop to carry over into next year;
second, what the supply and demand
will be for the 1919 crop, and third,
whether the government should delib-
erately decide to take loss in order
to lower the price of bread.
AS to the supply and demand for
the 1918 crop, changes III world de-
mand during the last month, shown by
investigation of the food needs of Eu-
rope, indicate there will be no sur
plus. The Indian famine has proved
SO serious that large part of the
