ENTER GHOST CHAMBER TURNED TIDE OF BATTLE
Representative Carlin in Address De-
livered in Washington Declared Vic
tory Brought to Allies BY Ger.
Bundy Who Refused to Retreat

"An American general who dis
obeyed orders turned the tide of battle
in favor of the allies" declared Rep
resentative Charles c. Carlin Of Viz
ginia speaking before the Wilson Nor
man Community Center last night.
Gen. Bundy refused to retreat even
after the Huns had broken through.
Instead he ordered a charge and the
Americans carried the Huns back aal
they continued to go back ever after.
The real reason for the surrender
of the Germans was tie fact that Ger.
Pershing either would have anrihilat-
ed them or captured al their supplies
in three more weeks and they knew it.
And let ME say now that PerShinc
was responsible for the appointment
Of F'och as universal leader of the al
lied armies. Some day the American
soldiers are going to let the world
know what they think of Pcrshing."
MIR. Carlin scoffed at the idea that
any one power won the war, saying
that sit took Us ALL
he said that the morale Of the Ger
man army was broken at Chateau
Th:erry when the Huns were so de-
ci<ively stopped. He said Germans
captured in this battle were better
equipped than the Americans. "Thc
Americans freely exchanged cloth
ing with the Germans" he said
Mr.. Carlin paid high tribute to the
Red Cross, saying that the Amer
can soldiers never would cease 10
praise them.
! IN regard to the charge that tnc
American soldiers were no5 properly
fed, Representative Carlin said that
the American army was the best fed
lin Europe and that they were given
better food than could be procure*
i'm any Paris hotel.
M-. Carlin said that one Of the
greatest inventions during the war
with submarines a,
sea-was that of an American. Hc said
this invention was big factor in ti'a
war against The Hun U-boats. II this
connection he said that there were
never more than twenty-four subma-
rines II the Ocean at one time.

ments to Germany's counter propos-
ais to the peace treaty and a revised
cony Of the peace treaty tonight are
in the hands of Count Won Brock
dorff -Rantzau, who is on his way to
Weimar, there to present to The
German National Assembly tho ANAL

Few changes have been made in
the revised peace treaty. Tho original
contentious Of the allied and associat-
ed powers have been virtually main
tanned intact.
Five days was the allotted period
originally fixed for the Germans to
answer yea or nay to the demands Of
the allies. But two days additional
have been granted because Of the in
sistence Of the German delegation
that net sufficient time had been al
lowed for proper consideration Of the
revised terms. This will extend the
time limitation to Monday, June 70.
If Germany's reply Is acquies-
cence the treaty will be immedia tely
, signed: if Germany declines to ac-
cede to the demands, the armistice
will be automatically terminated and
the allied armed forcecs will take
whatever steps they deem requisite
to occasion.

of the world for being responsible for
war which was 1.-The greatest
crime against humanity and the
freedom of the peoples that any ma.
ton calling itself civilized. has ever
consciously committed"
Without ostentation. Paul Dutasta,
general-secretary Of the Peace con-
ference. at SAC o'clock this evening
