ANKLES HIDDEN BY FENCE
TO KEEP JURY UNBIASED

NEW YORK, March 13-Becanse
Mrs. Bette Inch was too generous in
the display of her ankles to jurymen
who failed a month ago to agree on a
verdict in her trial on a charge of cx-
t~ortion, she found the witness stand
surrounded by a 4-foot board fence
when she appeared Wednesday in the
Supreme Court for the second hearing
of her Ease. Though the court and
prosecutor professed ignorance for the
reason for the erection of the barrier,
the court attendants recalled a state
ment of the latter when the first jury
disagreed that "Mrs. Inch must not
show her ankles to the jurors at the
next trial." else he would task the
court to make her lower her dress"
"What is it, a spite fence?" the
comely Mrs. Inch inquired when she
entered the courtroom.
The partition concealed all but her
head and shoulders when she took the
stand. She is being tried on a charge
of extorting S215 from Eugene P. Her
man, president of the Herman Motor
Truck Company.

Private Ray Gregory one of the
Audrain County boys in the service
is located in kyelburg, Germany. In
a letter to Al Tredway he says the
thing he wants to do most now is to
come home. The letter follows:
Pal All
K~yelburg, Germany, March End,
1919.-A line or so tonight to say hello
to you and the rest of the boys. Am
feeling fine but somewhat a little an
Xious to get back home for | under
stand quite a few of the boys are back
already. | received your letter the
other day and must say l enjoyed it
very much. Am always glad to hear
from friends and about our little old
village that we'd rather see now than
the largest city in all the world.
Well we received a bulletin the other
day from G. II. O., and on this sheet
of paper gave our future announce
ment as to the different Divisions
when they woult said so the Middle
West being the 89th, is slated to sail
for America the first week in June.
We have been in this town now since
Dec. Sth and l have about got acquain-
ted with everyone that ! are to so am
anxious to move on or do something.
Will leave Tuesday A. NJ, for a
three day pass to Coblenze, Germany,
which is on the famous river called
the Rhine, but we boys got the Bacon
so all that is left is the Rhine. Well
on this trip the Y. NJ. C. A, the
"Fighting Scamps" take us down the
Rhine in one of the Dutch boats for
sight seeing and this trip lasts 6 hours
so l will aim to keep awake so l can
tell you what l saw. But the best is
yet to come, | go to Paris March 14th
or 10th on a 3 day stay in this city and
of course l will aim ito see all. Gee
l am anxious to go for I have heard
lots about this place and am planning
on a swell trip. Kindly remember me
to all of my friends and here's hoping
to see you all soon. Best wishes.

CONGRESSMAN AYRES,
DEMOCRAT, OF KANSAS
AGAINST CHAMP CLARK

WASHINGTON, April 8.-Con.
gresham William A. Ayers, the only
Democratic member of Congress from
Kansas who survived the Republican
{ landslide at the last election, recently
Joined the anti Champ Clark organi.
zation which is working to prevent
the nomination of former Speaker
Clark to be Democratic floor leader ir
the coming session.
In a statement issued recently
Ayers declares he has no personal
grievance against the former party
leader, but "more than a plenty" from
8 party standpoint. He says:
81 am informed that never before in
the history of the American Congress
has a party failed to holda caucus dur
ing the entire session, yet this is the
history of the Democratic leadership
in the Sixty-ffth Congress. At no
time did those who had been selected
for these important positions defend
either the president or his administra-
ton against the vicious assaults made
by the opposing on the the floor of the
House. Every Democrat who served
in the Sixty-ffth Congress will re-
member how our leaders," when the
Republicans were attacking legislation
and the policies of the administration,
would sit with a satisfied countenance
which would seem to say "hit them
Mexico weekly ledger., 1919-04-10

again" Really it was so sickening to
many of the new members that they
would return to their offices and try
to obtain consolation by an 'alibi to
their constituents.
Il have NO grievance from a personal
standpoints, but more than a plenty
from a party standpoint. / feel that
if the present candidate for minority
leader is elected, the Democrats in
the House, who are loyal supporters
of the administration, will again be
Inundated by being forced to witness
Republican onslaughts with no de-
Tense from those who will be charged
with this responsibility. =
Wants -Four Square Leader.
81 am in favor of electing a leader
who has stood four square in rep
%resenting the ideals of the Democratic
party in the past. Such a man, when
necessary, would go after Republican
onslaughts with a corkscrew or a
meat AK. Last fall the Democrats ev-
erywhere met the statement it is nee
essary to elect a Republican Congress
to uphold the president and the ad-
| ministration in conducting the war;
"The people knew the record of our
leaders and believed this siren song,
when the Congressional Record shows
a much larger per cent of the Demo-
cratic congressman were loyal to the
| administration than Republicans, but
on account of the attitude of certain
leaders the party suffered as a whole.
We must avoid a condition of this kind
in the future. If an enemy of the adj
ministration, is, through SYMPATHY or
fear, elected minority leader in the
Sixty-sixth Congress, there won't be
very much incentive for a person to
remain a Democrat in the future.
What is wrong with selecting a
steering committee, representing ev-
cry section CT the nation, and then let
this committee select a man for its
leader who has no sore spots to nurse,
and who will do his duty whenever
the occasion demands. I am for a pro-
gram of this kind and believe the
Democratic caucus will approve the
| same when presented"

were getting pretty tired by this
time and so came back to New Lon
don that night and arrived here at
three o'clock in the morning SO by
the time we got to the Base it was too
late to go to bed so I didn't get any
sleep Thursday night but made up
for it last night. I sure had one nice
time and only regret that I didn't
have longer to stay. Philadelphia and
Washington are sure fine cities but
I don't think so much of New
York. One thing that l liked
about Philadelphia is it has
such pretty women, that is one
thing that it is noted for. wanted to
visit Washington's home at Mount
Vernon, Va, but didn't have time
enough as it is about twenty miles
down the Potomic river. While | was
up in Washington's monument I could
look across the banks Of the Patomic
and see General Lees old home and
could get a good view of Virginia, and
it sure is one pretty country. I think
that I have told you about everything
that happened while on my trip so
today | am back at work.
I have several letters to write as
1 haven't written any for the last two
weeks. l suppose that you are hav-
ing nice weather there these days and
the men folks are sowing oats, sure
would like to be there to help them
and | might get out sometime next
summer. How is Craig making it
these days and how does he like his
new place? Tell Russell that l will
write to him some of these days and
tell Ewing to write as he owes me a
letter. We are having nice weather
now and ! am feeling fine and hope
you are the same. l will close write
soon.

Lee Roe, an Audrain County soldier,
who is located at Nuremberg, Ger
many, writes his father, G. A. Roe, the
following interesting letter:
Dear Parants:-
Aspect, Gutenberg, March ,, 1919.
i will drop you a few lines to let
you know that | am well.
I will now tell you some OF my ex-
~pcrienccs in France. have had a nice
time considering everything. My first
trip to the trenches was in the Vosgcs
Mountains July 18th in the St. Die
sector. There were four Of US fellows
together, Harvey Webster from Grand
Junction, Colo; Edward Zastrow from
Hermann. No; Lacy Taylor from Van
dalia, Mo-. and myself. l met Lacy
Taylor on the train on my way to Fl.
Riley and we have been together ever
since and | guess we will come home
together. | met Webster and East
row after l arrived at the Camp.
Our first time at the front we stay
ed three weeks and had quite q time,
we were out several times in No Mans
Land on night patrol, m night We
went all the way over to the German
trenches to sc what we could find but
when we got over there We couldn't
even find any Germans. On cur way
back we ran into a German patrol of
about twenty men and after a few
shots they disappeared ard we did
likewise. No one was hurt however.
There was not much action on this
front. After spending three weeks
here we were relieved for ten days.
The next time we went to a small
town called Clare Voucher, also near
the front line. On the morning of
August 18th our Infantry 9Th and 18th
Went over the top and captured the
town of Trapellc, the Germans left
rather rapidly as there were only
twenty five prisoners captured. That
night we went into dugout to sleep.
1t being August it was pretty hot
sleeping in dugouts SO Zastrow decid-
ed he would go outside where it was
cooler. He found an old table and
climbed on to sleep. He had not
been on it very long until Fritz sent
over a shell which tore the legs from
under the table, He was not hurt but

pretty badly scared, he came scramb-
ling back into the dugout glad to sleep
there regardless of the heat.
We were relieved again in a few
days and left for Eloyes- After a
week VIC left for the big drive at st.
Mihiel. We hiked six nights on this
trip and l think it rained every night.
1 might explain we did all of our hik-
ing at nights now staying in the clear
during the day, this was to keep some
German observer from seeing US. At
ter finishing our hike we landed at a
small town called st. Jean. After
resting here one night we left for
Neville to a dressing station. The big
st. MihieI drive was now in full swing.
During this drive we all had a number
of close calls, never knowing from N
minute to the next but what there
would be a new face in Heaven or
He'll. We got separated for a couple
of days. Webster served az a dis
patch rider which is rather a danger
Gus job. One night he vas sent with
an order to the commander Of the In
fantry, he got lost and wandered
around through the woods all night
under heavy shell fire and gas. He
started on this trip with a horse but
came in next morning walking as he
said the horse was too high and rough
riding.
Lacy Taylor was sent over to work
in a dressing station further up the
line, it being a hospital that was cap
turcd from the Germans the day be-
fore. He served here as a stretcher
bearer having to go to the front line
and bring back the wounded and was
also under heavy shell fire day and
night, during his stay there.
During this drive the Americans
captured 10000 German prisoners.
The first German helmet I sent home
was a souvenir of st. Mihiel drive.
We were not in action very long On
this front, being relieved we went back
to a rest camp for a couple of weeks.
The next time we went into action
was on the Argonne front which IS
north of Verdun, I will not take time
to tell of our experiences of this drive.
We were relieved on the 21st of Oct
ober for five day sand then went into
action again on the same front. On
Nov. LIST our boys went over the top
and crossed the Mouse River on Nov.
9Th and kept on going until the end,
Nov. 18th. At that time we were at
q town called Louppy. We established
a dressing station in this town the
same day. The Germans were just
across a river about a hundred yards.
We stayed here until Nov. 18th being
relieved m that day we hiked back to
a town called Milly. 1t was here that
| took the mumps and was separated
from my bunch until Dec. 10th. l re-
joined the company on that day at
Longuy, France, and we have been to-
gether since. We are now located in
Aspect, LuXcmberg.
