T call this real fighting. There are no trenches here. You get be- hind a stone or tree and blaze away at the enemy, or charge with a bayonet. We pity the poor devils. They are fools enough 10 fight ma chine guns, tanks and airplanes. They believe in transmgration of souls. They never die, but reap pear after years Of rest. They fight to die. l would not like 10 be a tanker, crushing them. After the battle of Sucida, we found no dead. We shot them, saw them fall and charged but found no bodies. They take their dead away and keep them unburied so their souls will ascend to heaven We take no prisoners. they don't either"

 Washington. June [ P-Amcr;- can Consul <eeley. at Damascus. has been instructed to use his gooG offices in an cndeavor to secure de- fenso counsel for Bonnet J. Doty of Memphis. Tenn, charged with de- sertion from the French Foreign Legion.
 A ray of hope that he escape tho death sentence is seen by Washing ton government officials in French military regulations which require approval by President Doumorsue before execu fen can take place.
 Through this regulation it is eX- pccted that time will be allowed for state department officials 10 inter ccde in Doty's behalf.
 The department received today 3 telegram from Paul Knabenshuc, consul at Beirut, reporting the ar- rest and adding that the prisoner, known also as "Gilbert Clare,' vas about to betricd by court martial at Damascus.
 Knabcnshue said he instructed Consul Keeley 10 endearor to secure the services Of a French officer 10 conduct Doty's defense.
 Should Doty be condemned to death," the report from Beirut said, the sentence must be approved by tho president of France before exc cution.'
