BY FRED 5. EERGusoN

UNITED Press Staff Correspondent
PARIS, March 10. (By Mail. .)-Judging
from reports drifting back to Europe,
America is now getting all the thrills
Of the old "blood-curdling" stories that
have been drifting around France
for mOnths-and some Of them for
years-through returning soldiers. They
are the product Of one OF the greatest
rumor factories the world ever saw
the Allied armies.
The stories Of the horrible" condl-
tions at Brest, and Of many men dying
there, are probably traceable 10 this
curious feature OF army life. Most Of
the stories which were so elibly spun
TO New York reporters probably ori-
ginated on the boats en- route to Amer
lea. One man heard another tell some
one Of what someone else had told him.
and by the time the beat docked every
one on board was probably convinced
that men were dying like flies" at
Brest
The record Of the Brest camp. as
described by a United Press Core
spondent recently, after visiting Brest,
disproved some Of the stories. But
'horror" stories will continue to resch
America. The best off-hand explanation
IS probably found in the lack OF COM
munication for individuals IN The army.
As an example, imagine what would
happen In your town II there were no
. newspapers: II conditions OF threaten
ing death constantly prevailed: if there
was a big fire, or an explosion every
night; II you had no responsibility
other than that Of doing some par
ticular job assigned TO you. while
someone else saw that you were fed
and had a place to sleep. There being
no newspapers. the only way you
would have Of learning what happened
at these fires and explosions would be
through what someone told you.
By reason Of the conditions under
which the private soldier lives and
fights. he IS the most unreliable au-
thority to be found when it comes to
learning what happened. Rumors fly so
thick and so fast that a majority Of
the enlisted men apparently soon be-
come confused in what they saw and
did. OF the hundreds Of soldiers I have
talked with, very few have had any
thing TO say Of what they saw or DID.
II was always what someone else did
Another unusual thing in this con-
nection is how quickly a soldier picks
up old time-worn fiction phrases when
he gets in the zone Of action at the

front. For the past four years America
has been fed on the greatest line OF
bunk and hog-wash in the way Of war
fiction that the world has ever seen.
It may then be assumed. that under the
strained conditions under which The
new soldier found himself living, his
mind turned 10 the fiction phases he
had learned as a civilian. There are
thousands Of exceptions 10 this, Of
course, but in talking with soldiers you

He himself had expected to sail in two

court he didn't trouble to tell me), and
he could neithei take Claire with him

DIAMOND CUT DIAMOND
By JANE BUNKER.

Our new serial is an unusual myS-
terry story that defies picking 70 pieces;
it has q time-lock on it which can be
opened by simply dipping into the
story here and there and waiting for
the last chapter. The combination
goes from chapter n to finis, and
you're kept on tiptoe with excitement
all the way; that is, when you're not
doubled MP by the fun OF 1t all.
