GERMANS PLANNED TO
ATTACK ALLIES ON
ELBE, SAYS WRITER

Berlin, Thursday. June 26.-The
German government. headed by Phil
ipp Scheidemann, had planned to re-
to sign the peace treaty and to
permit the Allied troops to march into
Germany as far al the Elbe. where it
would be attacked by strong German
forces, the DanziEr correspondent of
the TaEeblatt declares in a dispatch
to create q, separate state in North
eastern Germany.
The plan failed because Of jealous
les and differences of opinion be-
tween the government and the army
leaders. the correspondent says.
"a report from Geneva Thursday
night said Herr Scheidemann had ar
rived in Switzerland after crossing the
frontier on foot).

CRYSTAL TO HAVE
ELECTRIC LIGHTS

Crystal. N. D., June 2S.-During
the spring the gas plant which has
been in use here for a number Of
years failed to function and city
light has been a serious proposition
during the summer.
At a recent meeting of the citizens
it was decided that a bonus should
be put up to private parties to build
a suitable electric lighting plant here.
The committee appointed met with
good success, and, a. plant will be
built during the next few months.
The only question still to be decided is
the number of hours Of service want
ed. 1t Is thought that a 24-hour serv-
ice will not prove practical.

We expected criticism. and we

is at all hard for us to answer is that
of the personality of some ofsthe Sec

where a breakdown meant death and
destruction than to entrust that car
to a mollycoddle who never used even
a little cuss-word, but who wasn't
there when it came down to a scratch.
There has been come criticism Of
these rough necks' by supercilious
geneltmen who came over with the
idea that our principal duty in the
wasn't what we were there for. We
were there to render service. and we
did it on a big scale, and successfully.
No Religious Propaganda.
ut would have beer a grave mis-
tempted to engage in religious propa-
ganda. We have been told that the
word Christian should be dropped
from the name of our association. I
don't believe it. There are many
way of rendering a Christian service,
and we adopted a concrete, substan-
tial way We left religious work to
the chaplains who were there for that
purpose. There were religious serv-
ices in our huts every Sunday con-
Quoted by the chaplains, and they
would be a mass by a Catholic priest:
then there would be a service by some
Protestant minister. The outstanding
feature of our work in the war was
its unity. There was no question of
Catholicism or Professionalism; there
was no distinction between Jew and
Gentle. ,
