California Sergeants, Deco
rated by Congress, Are
Among 1904 of 363d
Infantry ION Kentuckian
All Sons of Golden West
Enright, Ex-Yankee Pitcher,
and Two Other League
Ball Stars Also Aboard

Two American soldiers, both of them
sergeants in the 363d Infantry, who
won Congressional honor medals for
conspicuous bravery in action, arrived
here yesterday on the transport Ken
tuckian, which had on board 1904 Off
GERS and men, the majority of whom
were native sons of the Golden West
These "prize fighters of the world" as
their commanding officer described
them, knew nothing of warfare when
the United States entered the Euro
pean conflict but they fought the Ger
mans to standstill, although their
casualties were 60 per cent.
81 don't know whether soldiers grow
differently in California than in other
parts of the United States," said Colo
mel Harry l.. Cavanaugh, commander
Of the 3G3d. ~ do know, however, that
California troops can fight better and
take more punishment than any other
organization recruited anywhere in the
world These boys were raw recruits
when they went overseas, but they
learned quickly and were the bravest
and most willing soldiers I ever COM
manded
Two Highest Honor Men
"You may get some idea how the
regiment went into action when I say
that in eight days actual fighting their
casualties were 300 officers and men
killed and 400 wounded. We have in
our organization two Californians who
received the Congressional medal of
honor. This is pretty good when you
consider that only four such medals
were awarded to the entire 91st Di-
vision"
The first man to get this honor was
Sergeant Charles West, of San Fran
cisco. The citation which accompanied
his medal said:
Gle is cited for conspicuous gal
lantry above and beyond the call of
duty in action with the enemy near
Bois de Chappy on September 26. While
making his way through thick fog
with his automatic rifle section his ad-
vance was halted by direct and unusual
machine gun fire from two sections.
"Without aid he dashed through the
fire and attacking the machine gun
nests killed two gunners, one of whom
was an officer. Through this effort his
company was enabled to advance with
out the loss Of a man"
Braved Guns Saving Comrade
Sergeant Philip C. Katz, of c Com
pany, the other winner OF the Congress
sional Medal, was cited as follows:
"On September 26, after his battal-
ion had withdrawn q distance of 200
yards on line with the rest of its
flank, Sergeant Katz with one Of his
comrades had been left wounded in an
exposed position. Crossing an area
swept by terrific machine gun fire, he
advanced to his wounded comrade and
carried him back to safety"

Men Are Registered Here

The "for rent" sign was hung on 1S9
stores and offices in New York City
yesterday when the draft boards went
out Of existence. Their official lives
ended on March /, but the personnel of
the boards, or part of it, remained to
pack the records for shipment.
From o'clock in the morning until 5
in the evening, Meet OF thirty seven
United States army motor trucks piled
between the local board headquarters
in the various parts Of the city and the
Pennsylvania Depot, mobilizing the
records for shipment.
The total weight Of the city's rec
ords. which contain the history of the
origin of the 77th Division and the
registration of ,4S3,000 men, is 275
tons. They are packed in regulation
filing cabinets and Grated for preserva-
ton during the transit. Thirty freight
cars we're required.
Most of the furniture and typewrit-
ers belonging to the boards have been
disposed of at public auction. The lit
tie paraphernalia remaining will be
distributed through the Federal offices

with the services of the remaining
clerks, but most of them resigned last
night.
The total cost Of the draft in New
York City has not been compiled, ac-
cording to David Asch, assistant to
Martin Conboy, director of the draft.
The appointment of Mr.. Conboy as a
member of the committee of the Amer
lean Bar Association to recommend re-
visions in the court martial law of the
country is believed to be one of the
recognitions of the .splendidly efficient
services performed by him.
The per capita cost of inductions was
$3.50 for each man, compared with
$2895, the cost Of enlisting man. The
classification cost for the first three
registrations was $1.69 man, while
Sill man was the cost on the last
draft. The expenditures in New York
City up to October l, 1918, were APP
proximately $1,013, 800

48-HOur Demobilization Or
der Makes Quick Action
Necessary for New York.
Famous Drafted Heroes
Men Want to Get Out
That Is Reason Given by
Gen. March for Possible
Cancellation of Reviews

The 77th Division, it is announced,
will have its welcome home review
within six days after its last unit
arrives in port, at the end of April
or during the first week of May. 1t
is planned to have the entire division
embark in q fleet of transports-or
possibly German ships on the way
here for food to arrive in New York
virtually at the same time.
This plan failing, there may be no
parade at all. 1t was learned yester-
day that if there are long waits be-
tween regiments, as in the case of the
27th, the recent War Department
forty eight-hour discharge order may
supervene.
The announcement relative to the
timing of the parade within the week
following the arrival of the troops was
made last night after conference be-
tween Major General David Shanks,
commander of the port of embarka-
tion, and Lieutenant Colonel Douglas
SaHlPDeli, CoIlhaHuiHS the advance
party of the 77th.
Feel Sure of Parade
None of the officers connected with
the advance party or with the port
of embarkation really believes that the
forty -eight-hour discharge order, which
was issued Saturday by General Pey-
ton G.. March, chief of the general

Parade Of 9th Cost
Nearly Million Dollars

THE parade of the 9th Division
cost the government almost a
million dollars. A computation Of
the cost, including the pay and sub
sistence Of the men for the period
they were held in the service in
order to take part in the Fifth Ave
nue. review, shows an expenditure
of about $927,O according to an
nouncement by the War Depart
ment yesterday.
The department, however. is said
to be not so much concerned over
the cost as over the fact that the
machinery of rehabilitation was
clogged and is still strained.
Another element is complaints
from men in Organs division not
residents of New York who were
held three weeks longer in service
because Of the review.

Italy on Way Home
332d Infantry, From Ohio
and Pennsylvania, to Land
About April Is

American troops who fought side by
side with the Italian armies against the
Austrians in the closing months of the
war are on their way home, according
to a message received in this city yes
terday by the Italian Consul General.
The men are members OF the 332d In
fantry, composed of troops from OHIO
and Western Pennsylvania.
The consul said an official dispatch
from Rome informed him that most of
the units Of the regiment were aboard
the liners Canopic and Duca d'Aosta
and were to land in New York on April
il and IS. 1t is probable that third
detachment Of the 332d will be aboard
the Dante Alighcri. The regiment was
a part of the Third Depot Division and
suffered many casualties in its fight
ing.
WASHINGTON, April 1.-Departure
from Marseilles on March 20 of the

ters company, supply company, ma
chine gun company and medical units,

thirty-iive officers and 1,248 men. Camp
Sherman is the destination of all of
these except four officers and one man
who go to Camp Upton and one enlist
ed man who will be sent to Camp
Devcns.
The Canopic also is bringing a de-
tachment of base hospital number 102

Chamberlain Never Flew
In His Unit, Says Miles

LONDON, April /. About July 90, 1918,
an American aviator named G. c. Whit
ing, who had previously been attached
to the 43d Squadron of the Royal Air
Force, visited his former comrades at
Touquin, France, and brought with him
an officer of the United States Marine
Corps. Whether this officer was Ed
mund G. Chamberlain, the squadron
commander, Major C. c. Miles, was un-
able to say in his testimony to-day at
the court-martial of Captain Chamber
lain in connection with his reported air
exploits on the British front last July.
Major Miles said the visitors stayed
for tea and returned the same after
noon by automobile to Paris. The
major said that Chamberlain never flew
with his squadron to his knowledge,
and that no machine was borrowed or
stolen during July.

staff, will interfere with the plans for
the review of New York's metropolitan
division. 1t is pointed out here that
the 77th will not be sent from the ships
direct to the demobilization camp at
YaphaAk. The units will be quartered
first at debarkation camps, probably
Merritt and Mills.
Then will come the review. Immedi-
ately afterward the men will be trans
ferred to the demobilization camp.
The 48-hour rehabilitation order
was issued, it has been reported, be-
cause nearly three weeks elapsed be-
tween the arrival Of the first units Of
the 9th and the last, and some of the
men protested.
General March was quoted yesterday
as stating that the 49-hour discharge
order was in the interests of the men,
who objected to being held in service
for weeks merely to afford civilians a
military spectacle.
The East Side is going ahead with
plans to have at least part Of the
division parade in that section. Vari-
Gus Jewish organizations met last
night in the offices Of the Hebrew Shell
tering and Immigrant Aid Society to
form a permanent committee of 500 to
welcome home not only the $4,000
young Jews who are members of the
77th, but also those in other divisions.
This committee also is planning to
erect monument to the hcroism dis
played by Jewish soldiers. Joseph
Marcus opened tho fund with contri-
button of 1000.
Brooklyn also is expecting to have a
parade Of me 77th. The Victory Com
mittee of that borough announced
plans for d special welcome and at the
same time said that the grand
stands erected for the review Of the
Brooklyn units of the 9th Division
would be left standing for the 77th.
Draft Workers to March
Members of the New York City draft
boards, every one of which sent men
into the 77th, likewise are planning
for the reception Of the metropolitan
division and they expect to participate
in the parade. They will hold a meet
ing next Monday.
Since the advance party arrived from
Europe last week it has had many in
quiries regarding exactly what the
77th Division did in the war. The
answer was made categorically that
was the only division of the thirty
Pershing sent actually into comba
that went through the Argonne Forest

WEST COAST SALMON
 RUN IS ONLY FLASH
 IN PAN; QUICKLY OVER

Word comes from Ketcnikan that the salmon run on the west coast of Prince of Wales Island and quickly grabbed by the canneries, and. thai it has now ceased. The information is that the canneres in that section, like those of Chatham and Icy Straits and elsewhere in southeastern Alaa- ka have got up about 5G per cent pack, and they do not expect to do much better than that
 A letter received by The Empire, dated at Ketchikan Wednesday, says the "cannerIes of this section are again idle. the salmon run has proved disappointing and the pack will be about 90 per cent of normal. There was a squirt on the west coast, but if was grabbed so quick that it did not last long"
