GERMAN PRISONERS NOT TO
BE RELEASED CLEMEN-
CEAU SAYS
Murderers and Plotters Cannot be
Repatriated With Peace
Signing.

Paris, May 23-German plotters
and criminals who have been reached
during the war by the strong arm OF
the law OF any of the allied associat-
ed powers, and who are now in
prisons or internment camps cannot
be released and repatriated either
now or when peace is signed. but
must serve out their sentences, re-
gardless of their German citizenship.
This. in substance, is the allied re-
ply to note from the German peace
delegation requesting the repatria-
tion OF such prisoners at the earliest
possible moment.
Premier Clemenceau. who, as head
of the peace conference, answers
Count Won Brockdorff- -Rantzau' S
notes.-the latter by the way habit
ually signs himself merely Brock
dorff Rantzau u-points as an ex-
ample to the case OF German pris-
oner who killed lin cold blood a
farmer and his wife on whose farm
he was put to work. This prisoner
was sentenced to death by court
martial. Execution was suspended
till the signing of peace, in accord
ance with the Berne convention.
But this murderer must die for his
deed, peace or no peace, the French
premier explains in his reply, for to
reprieve him upon the conclusion of
peace would be contrary to the due
and necessary course Of justice.

Bates County Boy Wins War Cross.

While every soldier that went
from Bates county did his whole duty
in the war, only one of them was so
fortunate as to win the coveted
French Croix de Guerre, and that
one was Roy Burch; of Pleasant Gap.
Mr.. Burch wears his honors very
modestly and like all Americans who
have the courage and the opportunity
to win distinction on the field of
battle he has very little to say about
it. It seems that the German bar
rage had severed some very import
ant telephone wires in front of the
American lines and Mr.. Burch, under
heavy German artillery and machine
gun fire went out in No Mans land
and tied them together. He says
that that was about all that there was
to it. 1t would be interesting to
hear the story from some of the Of
ficers or men who saw the deed.

Mrs. Thomas B. Hall. formerly Of
Archie, where he met his bride when
she was teaching school at that place.

IT WAS A BIG DAY
Bates county's Returned Soldiers
Royalty Entertained by the
People of Butler.

Thursday, May 22, is date that
will be long remembered in Bates
county, for it was on that day that
Butler opened her doors to the re-
turned soldiers and told them that
the town was theirs. They may have
been larger crowds here on some for
mer occasions, and many doubt that.
but it is certain that never before
were there so many happy, carefree,
people in the city at one time. The
soldiers were happy because they had
gotten back to the old home and the
wives, mothers, fathers, sweethearts
and friends were happy that the
loved ones had been spared to re-
turn.
Preparations had been under way
for week and when the boys and
their friends commenced arriving in
town Thursday morning everything
was ready for them. During the
night the streets around the square
had been washed clean and ropes
out the vehicles. Lieutenant Mont
gomery in his big Curtis biplane had
arrived the evening before and about
nine o'clock he commenced making
flights over the city. He was kept
busy all day taking up passengers
who wanted to experience the sensa-
ton of flying through the air hun
dreds of feet above the earth. At
three o'clock in the afternoon he
went up by himself and treated the
big crowd to all sorts OF thrills by
giving an exhibition of stunt fly.
ing. He circled around over the
business part of the town, climbing
higher and higher until he had
reached an altitude that suited him,
then he commenced his show. He
looped the loop, did the side slip,
nose dive, flew upside down and gen
orally defied all the laws of gravita-
ton, finally landing safely in the
grounds of the golf club southwest
of town. This part of the day S ell
tertainment was appreciated more by
the stay-at-homes than by the SOL
diers, as airplanes were nothing new
to the man who had seen them by
the hundreds in the training camps
and in the more serious work in bat
tie in France.
During the afternoon there was a
fine picture show going on at Fisk's
Opera House and it was free to ev-
efynooy..;as-s '!.sa- $-sy .-s-

AIR GOAL IS WON
First to Fly Acros the Atlantic Are
Read and His Crew of the
NC.A-

Washington, May 27.-Blazing the
way of the first air trail from the
Western to the Eastern hemisphere,
the United States navy seaplane,
NC-4, under Lieut.. Com. Albert
Gushing Read, swept into the harbor
at Lisbon. Portugal, today. the first
airship of any kind to have crossed
the Atlantic ocean under its own
power and through its natural ele-
ment.
Taking the air at Ponta Delgada.
Azores, at 6:IS a. H.. Washington
time, on the last leg o; the trans
oceanic portion OF the voyage. from
Rockaway Beach, Long Island. to
Plymouth, England, the NC-4 COW
cred the eight hundred miles in 9
hours and 43 minutes. maintaining
an average speed of better than 50
knots an hour. The total elapsed
flying time from Newfoundland to
Lisbon was 26 hours and~4I minutes.
At the first opportunity the big
plane will continue to Plymouth, US
nautical miles to the north; possibly
Commander Read can start tomor-
row. To the Navy Department,
however, it makes little difference
when he completes the journey.
The great object OF all the effort
lavished on the undertaking-naviga-
tion of seaplane across the At
lantic through the air-has been ac-
complished, Twentieth Century
transportation has reached new PIN
nacle and the United States Navy
has led the way.
Naval officials emphasized that the
long delay at the Azores was due
to the weather and to no weakness
OF the machine or its daring crew,
nor to any failure OF the carefully
laid plans for the department to
guide the fliers to their destination.
The fourteen destroyers. strung from
Ponta Delgada to Lisbon reported
with machine-like precision today as
the flight progressed. The plane
was never off its course and there
was no moment when officials in
Washington did not know to within
a few miles where it was in the air.
To maintain adequate communica-
ton for this stage OF the journey.
the destroyers stuck to their posts
after the flying boat had passed, re-
laying back to Ponta Delgada re-
ports from ships farther eastward.
The chain was not broken until af-
ter the plane was safely moored for
the night near the cruiser Rochester
at Lisbon.

In the evening mess call was
sounded and every soldier, each with
lady guest was invited to go 10 the
Guyton Cafe, in the Opera House
block, where big feed had been pre-
pared for them. There was chicken,
lots OF it, creamed potatoes, dress
ing slaw, ice cream and many other
good things that made the boys re-
alize that they were home again and
eating Mothers cooking" There
was an abundance of everything and
considerable left over. =,
After supper dancing was in order
and it made no difference what kind
Of dancing you liked best, it was
there. On the east side OF the
square meal was scattered over the
pavement making a fair dancing
floor. An orchestra was stationed on
raised platform and a grand march,
led by Lieutenant and Mrs. w. B..
Catterlin started things to going.
From that time until midnight the
street was filled with whirling dane
ers, many of them dancing for the
first time in many years, but on an
occasion like that old age and stiff
fening limbs were forgotten, and it
seemed that Everybody was doin'
it In the headquarters, the old
Meyers store building Immediately
south of the Farmers Bank, those
who preferred the old fashioned
square dances were enjoying them
selves The floor was in good con-
dition and the room large enough to
accommodate five sets at one time.
At the Elks Club another dance was
in progress and they were all free.
Those who did not care for dancing
were being entertained at the Opera
House by the Butler High School
pupils with an old time minstrel
show.
Yes. it was big time and Butler
showed the boys that they were
proud Of them and glad to get them
back again.
