Man Cited by Pershing AS Greatest of All World Heroes
Also Cited by His Wife AS Being the
Best of Life Partners.

Cincinnati, Nov. 19,-When re
porters hurried to the house at 167
Alexandria pike. Ft. Thomas. to find
out what sort of a fellow is Sergeant
Samuel Woodfil, who has just been
proclaimed as outstanding among the
very. greatest of war heroes by General
John J. Pershing. They were met by
Mrs. Woodfil. And the first thing
Mrs. Woodfil did was to cite him for
most distinguished conduct as a hus-
band.
He helps with the dishes. she said.
When she was i'll recently he helped
his mother-in-law with all the house

While his wife was thus honoring
him. Samuel Woodfn was in Wash

General Pershing gave him a page
in history by declaring him an out
standing hero among heroes, he hav-

he answered. Il wish I could retire

And that's his one trouble-his
extreme modesty," said his wife. This
greatest hero of the war positively is
frightened when he gets into crowds
that want to honor him"
When friends urged Woodfil to seek
promotion to a captaincy-the rank in
which he fought in the war-he re-
fused. A bill was introduced in con-
gress to raise him to a captaihcy. He
declined to interest himself in it

AMAZING AND INCREDIBLE.

Senator Watson of Georgia has made charges
against the military administration of our affairs in
France which if they can be proven ought to send a
number of people either to the penitentiary or to
the gallows. He charges that on many occasions
American soldiers were executed by hanging with
out either court martial or any other form of trial.
He says that on one particular occasion, 81 men
were hanged at one time under these conditions,
and that this was a rather common occurrence. He
tells of several gallows which have been erected and
used for this purpose and in this manner, and<he has
q photograph which is p%urported to be a picture of
one OF, these structures which had been SO used.
1t is needless to say that the charges made by
MIR. Watson who occupies a position which ought to
be a warrant against the making of unfounded
charges, must be. thoroughly investigated. The
presumption is that Mr.. Watson would not have
made these statements unless he had what he be-
Heved to be satisfactory proof of their correctness
If he has that proof he must produce it. Legally he
may decline to do so, as a member of either branch
of congress is privileged on the floor of his house to
make any statement which he desires to make with
out thereafter being called in question concerning
it. That is a legal protection which gives the mem
Ter of congress greater freedom of expression than
lie would otherwise possess; but no man, either in
or out of congress can make charges of this nature
and decline to substantiate them properly without
everlastingly condemning himself.
1t would be a shock to the American public to
learn that charges of this nature are true. The pre-
sumption is that they are not true because they are
too general and relate to too many incidents which
must have been familiar to a very large number of
people to make possible their truth, and at the same
time admit of the facts having been kept secret. The
arnistice was signed now three years ago. The re-
turn of American soldiers to this country began inn
mediately. Within a few months that return was
practically completed. There are in the United
States several million men who saw service in
France. Among that number there must be thou
sands who are personally familiar with some of the
facts alleged by Mr.. Watson, if those things really
ere facts, but it is incredible, and one would suppose
it to be impossible that such knowledge could be
possessed for a period of two years by thousands Of
without the whole nation having been made &C
1uainted with the facts. Therefore, while the in
vestigation is necessarily called for, it is fair at this
time to predict that the. whole set of charges will
be found mythical.
