RICHMOND LOOKED Bet TER THAN PARIS
TO LOCAL SOLDIER after YEAR ACROSS

"I'd rather come to Richmond than
go to Paris" said Peter Lichtenfels,
who returned to his home in this city
after being in France and Germany
for II months. Lchtenfels was very
reluctant about giving an interview
because he said he felt as though he
had done nothing compared with the
other men in his outfit and other
outfits, many Of whom, he said, were
wearing three and four gold service
stripes, and wound chevrons
He enlisted in the army and two
months afterward was on his way to
Europe. He arrived in France with
the Saith division in September, 1918.
In October he was transferred to the
first division, regular army. He was
in France until after the armistice
was signed, and then went into Ger
many.
During the war he took part In the
Meuse-Argonne conflicts. Lichtenfels
says he considers himself lucky in
getting out without any wounds. 1t
was during this time that his family
did not hear from him. He said none

The first division was the first to
go to Europe, and the first in battle

able record for itself. 1t is one OF
the two divisions that had the largest
number of casualties, with over 30,
900. Lichtenfels said there had been
ITO per cent of requirements.
In February song composer OF
note, member of the first division
wrote a musical operetta in three
acts, and 10 men belonging to the
first division, the majority of whom
were professional theatrical men
were picked to form a company and
tour Germany.
Lichtenfels, who was formerly in
vaudeville, was a member of the com
pany Many of the men dressed as
chorus girls. The show was one OF
the big hits Of the A. E. F. and was
called the A. w. o. L. show. Lichten
fels said that almost every man in
the show had three gold stripes anC

stance, he said the man who took the
| part Of an Englishman in the show
| was suffering from shell shock at the
| time he went on, and suffered, but
this was not noticeable in his role
The show played all over Germany

country for production. One of the
songs has already been sold to Schu

bert for next winter. "It was lots
of fun putting it on" said Lichtenfels.
When he came back to France for
sailing orders the show was just
ready to 60 to Paris and then down
to Monte Carlo. He was asked to
take the extra two weeks and go
along but, he said, Richmond looked
better to him than Paris. Upon ar
irving in New York he was approach
ed by a theatrical manager who want
ed to talk business. but nothing do
ing" He was coming home, he said.
American Girls Best.
Germany is much cleaner than
France, according to Lichtenfels, but
the girls haven't as much style or
looks as the French girls.
THE American girls have got 1t
all over them all. You have no idea
what a grand and glorious feeling 1t
is to talk to an American girl after
wading about in French verbs and
nouns"
Lichtenfels has no plans for the
future. but says he thinks now he
will not go back to the footlights. He
danced and he says that trampine
about in woods hasn't improved his
feet. Just at present Richmond looks
good enough to him.

SAFEGUARDING
ON PROHIBITION
OCCUPIES HOUSE
Debate on Dry Law Enforce
ment Ranges From Tech
nical Argument to Stump
Speeches.

WASHINGTON, D. c., July 12,-In
the course of a five-hour debate in
the house Friday on the prohibition
bill the liquor traffic was likened to
a convicted criminal appealing for a
reprieve, while some of the more dra-
matte provisions of the measure were
denounced as an invasion Of the lib
erty, hospitality and habits Of the
home
1t probably was the last great day
of prohibition oratory in the house.
Not all of the twelve hours set aside
for general debate had been used at
the close Of an all-day discussion
which ranged from a technical argu-
ment on constitutional questions to
straight stump speech for prohi-
bition and it's enforcement.
Time Of Speeches Limited.
Chairman Volstead, Of the Judic-
larry committee, in charge of the bill,
and Representative Igoe, Democrat, OF
Mississippi, leader of the minority,
were unable to allot all Of the time
desired by members anxious to be
heard.
There were more demands than
there was time to give, with every
body seeking to speak. Time and
again there was the droning call of
THE gentleman asks permission to
extend and revise his remarks
The speechmaking continued today,
but the house will not begin actual
work on the bill, section by section,
until Monday.

HOLD RIGHT OF
MANUFACTURERS

Trade Commission Says Law

WASHINGTON, July 12-Renewed
recommendation that manufacturers

by disinterested agency, was made
by the federal trade commission today
in a special report to Congress. Elk
listing laws which have been interpret
ed by the supreme court in the case

commission believes, with view to

efficiency of manufacturing and COM

interests of the consuming public.
Under the commissions recommen-

congress last December manufacture

Price Cutting Danger.
The commissions recommendations
the report said were based on the fol-
lowing conclusions: What producers
Of identified goods-identified by
trade mark or trade practice should
be protected in their intangible prop
erty right or good will created
through years of fair dealing and OF
sustained quality of merchandise:
That the unlimited power both to
fix and to enforce and maintain re-
sale prices may not be made lawful
with safety; and
That unrestrained price cutting is
not in the public interest and tends
eventually to impair, if not to destroy
the production and distribution of ar
ticles desirable to the public.
