Priisilan Tunkerism Has Fostered

Anti-Semitism for Hundred Years.

By Emil Huenekep,

i NEW YORK, Jun« 8.—Over onefourth of an American regiment which recently left this port to flght for world freedom was composed of young

Jews. They should make good soldiers if they carry In their hearts the memory of outrages and ostracism which the Prussian junirors nave Inflicted on their ancestors. |k One meets German Jews occasionally

Who still have sympathies with modern Germany. If there is any class of 4 people who ought to wish with all their hearts for the defeat of Germany, it

Is the Jews.' For the humiliation of Germany's ruling class would be of Inestimable advantage to the Jewish race.

The Prussians were the real Inventors of anti-Semitism as a political movement. When at the beginning of n the nineteenth century Stein and Har€enberg endeavored to reform the antiquated and oorruft Prussian state, they, of course, met with the strongest opposition from the Prussian junkers 'who were enjoying the fruits of the existing regime.

With this anti-Semitic watchword i Prussian junkers duped the masses whom they ootxld otherwise nave •oaroely won over fbt the defense ol funker privilege.

Binoe that time anti-Semitism has been part and parcel of the junker polloy. A e a n l- 9 e o a i e s I n e toaoy. who have seen the light of day from time to time, were spawned by 'tha conservative junker party from \m, whloh they differed chiefly In that they

The ttascot has a special aversion to airplanes. They frighten him find he and bis heels are kept at a respectful distance from the hangars for the protection of the latter. Some airplanes incidentally are now appearing with a crude likeness of the kicking jackass painted on their sides.

I watched the first stages of •'sacred unity", for the war. I as» eisted at early campaigns of par* tial triumphs or defeat for Russia, I saw the tsardom overthrown and the beginning of con» fusion.

Then I had five months of Bol« tehevikism. As a result I seem to have lived a century. To come out of Russia Into England to* day is to emerge at a bound from tjie Middle Ages to modern times.

People talk of the French revo* s. lution and compare it with the Russian. But Russia is not (as France was) a highly civilized state, traversed by doctrinaire notions of human betterment and the rights of men. It is a huge form- i less massi which was held together only by authority, and the symbols of authority, in church and state. The symbols have gone. The mass relapses into chaos.

CAMP SHELBY, Hattlesburg, Miss., June 8.—The fourth officers' training school, now open, has 374 enlisted men enrolled as-students, several of whom are Terre Haute boys. Recent Additions to the school are Sergeant Raymond Werncke, who leaves the headquarters company to try for a commission, and Sergeants Harold "Walker and Louis KruzOn, of Co. H. Terre Haute companies are also recognized by the acceptance of the following students: Company B: Sergeants Arthur W. Reynolds, Raymond A. Smith, Elza B. Schott. Company H, 151st Infantry: Sergeants jack K. Joslln, Harry Lamson, Vernon L. Scomp, Corporal Joseph B. Haring.

Night hikes have been ordered in several of the regiments of Camp Shelby. The first two regiments to carry out the innovation were the 151st Infantry, including Co. H, of Terre Haute, and the 152nd Infantry, Including Co. B, of Terre Haute, both these commands taking a night hike early yesterday morning.

At four o'clock in the morning ine men were routed out of their tents and formed in marching order and poceefied to hike seveal miles out of camp and returned in time for Breakfast. It is said several of the other regiments will adopt the same course. The new order has been brought about because of the continued warm weather. Tho officers of the regiments deeming it better to have the usual hikes to keep the men in condition during the cool of the night and early morning hours, rather than to risk heat prostrations under a hot sun in the middle of the day.

As a rule the men seemed to like the new order of things and appeared to be pleased that they can do their hiking during the cool hours,, and rest during the heated portion of the day.

The Echo de Paris writes: *lFor the first time on botn banks Of the Ourcq, the United States troops underwent decisive test Witnesses are agreed that they triumphed."

The Petit Parisian sayst

"The United States help proves Just vhat we expected from brave soldiers full of enthusiasm and keen for the fight. We can expect everything from them."

French and British soldiers here unite in saying that this physical excellence of the Unitel States troops will be a vital factor in the battle. It is pointed out that more and more each day victory depends on the bayonet, the hand grenade and hand-to-hand combat. As the war develops into a war of movement the United States troops will prove even more valuable, it is said, and the movement of troops on the allied side will be an everincreasirg necessity. :i

So Keep Your Letters Cheerful and Cut Down His Store of Troubles.

The greatest cause of low spirits in the army "over there" Is a failure to get letters from over here, according to all reports from army officers of high and low degree. Homesickness is a factor in war these days, and army authorities beg that relatives and friends write often and write Cheerfully. Don't write at all unless you know how to keep back unpleasant things, or even a suggestion that something unpleasant |s poorly hidden in assumed pleasantry. Perhaps several thousand soldiers have had to be disciplined "over there" and in camps in the United States because they had no word or distressing word from home. Army authorities say that many a boy has been driven either to desertion or to distraction by letters asking him about the delays in his allotments for home use. Don't tell him about allotments or any other unhappy condition.

A soldier "over there'' has sent to his family In Terre Haute a poem which he says "is true to the letter." He adds: "It is worthy of the eye of all Americans who have soldier sons, brothers or friends over here. Show it to everybody who has such and say that it is true to the letter. Letter writing by those at home is little to ask compared with what the boys have to go through over here."

THE CALL FOR MAIL.

Wfiat is the call, the bugle call, the call that has no betters? That longed for call, that beats 'em all, that musical call for letters. You can take a stiver trumpet and sound the dread alarm, The Yank will spring to action with his rifle 'neath his arm But if you want to see him jump and beat a streak of hail. Just take the same old bugle and sound the call of mall. No one who has not been there can tell

Just what it means To have a live epistle from your home tucked in your jeans. Perhaps the maiden's name is Madge, or Jane or Marguerite, But a scented word of love makes a week's dull toll seem sweet, And any mother's soldier son who hears that bugle cry Just stops his heart and holds his breath for fear he'll be passed by. His hands are all a-trembl# .#nd his eyes stick out like pegs. And he goes all of a-quiver with the ague In his legs, But if his name's not on the list, lie wilts, a frozen bud. Until another mail call brings. him trudging through the mud. He is no correspondent and his answers are but few His chances are so slim to write his love a "billet doux

YANKEES IN FRANCE PUT FRENCH FLAVOR IN SLANG

They Will Come Back Home With a Queer Collection of Patter.

By Frank J. Taylor.

"WITH THE AMERICAN fiXpfcDTTIONARY FORCES AT THE FRONT, May 20.—Sergeant Soandso, somewhere in France, is a disgusted man. Not that the sergeant does not think we will wih the war, of is disgruntled about the army. He came ovor as a buck private, and he has risen to be a top sergeant. Yet the sergeant is disgusted with himself. Let him tell the story: "Here I've been In France eight months," he said, "and I've been trying to learn French. But no luck. Why, 1 just saw an old woman driving a cow down the main street of the village, talking French as fast as she could and the cow understood every word. I understood nothing/ Even tho chickens and dogs can fctop this French lingo better than I can."

Most of the dougrhboys in France are having better success with French than the sergeant, and when they come back to America, good old American will be much Frenchified, according to indications. American slang will be modelled along French lines in th& future even more than hats and women's clothes were in the past.

Out in tho trenches, where the Yankees are placed with the Frenchmen, students of French are prevalent. The men in the rear find help with their French among the natives. Already most every doughboy in France can go into a restaurant and order a meal with a fairly clear idea of what he is going to get, which is more than most people can do back home from those French menu cards.

The French are reciprocating, and many of them are picking up English quickly. It is a common thing to hear French people of all ages singing the erstwhile popular songs of America with the tune correct but a decidedly French accent to the words.

White People and Black People Putting Money In Banks From Crop.

ATLANTA, -Ga., June t*—Southern cotton growers have just passed through one of the most prosperous periods in history.

The historic uprising of the market has put thousands of dollars into tne pockets of cotton producers, whose offerings have been readily absorbeQ at the highest price since the civil war—thirty-live cents, a pound,

Fortunes were made in a dayii The negro and white man shared alike in the golden harvest. With the advent of unheard-of prices, they rushed the staple to market. Hundreds of Dales were tymed into money by their holders.

At the Atlanta exchange the sale of 2,125 bales was recorded at the record mark. The cotton brought an unheanlof price of more than $370,000, or exactly $175 a bale. But tnis was only for liut. Those fortunate in having seed received just a,bout $215 for the two combined.

During \he second rise, 3. C.' Collier, of Barnesvill^, completed one of the largest cotton sales ever transacted in Georgia. He sold 725 bales at a round figure of thirty-five cents a pound to an Atlanta "house. iThe sale totaled $140,000.

All sales records were shattered at Montgomery, Ala., when the Sellers & Orum company sold 700 bales for $195,000. It was the largest sale of a considerable quantity ever trail acted in Alabama. The fiait rate was U»lrtyfive cents a pound.

M. M. Hobbs, a farmer, of near Dublin, Ga., sold five bales of the siapie grown on three acres of land for $9y2.50. The seed brought him

Despite the high prices offered, the outlook for the future in the cotton growing belt is not encouraging. Although the demand has increased many time, the acreage will only be about normal. No perceptible increase Jfi predicted.

Southern farmers and planters have responded to the plea of the administration to raise more foodstufts. As a result cotton production will suifer.

The cotton belt" is also embarassed by the shortage of labor, the lack of fertilizer, and the jaoll weevil./is in-, creasing in volume. All these tilings combined, some cotton experts predict, will cause a reduction in acreage of at least 2 per cent during the present year.

Machine Gun Red Hot,

A graphic story was told today by an American officer commanding a mnchine gun platoon of a Kentucky corporal, who, though dying, worked his machine gun until It was red-hot. when he finalv toppled over. He was immediately replaced by two shell feeders, who continued firing until the piece finally melted.

The officer who toM the story Iwd been gassed in the fighting at Cantigny, on the Picardy front, and was brought here for treatment.

The corporal was mortally wounded and knew he could not live long, but begged to be allowed to remain at his post. He continued to crank his gun until he fell dead. Then the feeders, refusing to save themselves, covered the dead body and continued firing until the breech melted and they were nnable to force in any more cartridges. The fighting platoon did not knew they had b*en gassed untH their eyes closed. Then they were carried back to safety.

Praises Dispatch Riders.

A lieutenant from Massachusetts, who was gassed also, praised the wonderful work of the infantry dispatch bearers. One was blown completely off the highway by a high explosive shell. He limped up and delivered his message.

A c&ptain from New York, who had been gassed, lay for six hours In the open under a continuous bombardment of gas shells and high explosives. He declared that the German were unable to approach the American lines.

The stench of the hundreds of German dead in No Man's land was appalling, it was said.

The Germans whom the Americans whipped at Cantigny called themselves the "Black Snake division," because they seldom slept and were kept crawling on their stomachs trying to approach the American lines while emitting clouds of poison gas. But it seems that they are scotched now.

Allied World Looks to America To Paralyze the Hand of the Hun

By Captain Pat Clarke.

WASHINGTON, D. C., June 8 —The official statement issued by the supreme war council expresses what seems to be the general ^opinion as to the outlook in France. It does not attempt to deny that the German army is, on the whole, superior in numbers to the forces arrayed against it., it maintains that there is no sucn 'superiority, however, as would justify want of faith in the ultimate triumph of the forces now defending free government. Confidence is expressed in the belief that the line will hold and that the United States, which is even now offsetting German gains, will eventually turn the balance.

There is good reason for thinking that the German people have been kept In ignorance as to the extent to which the United States is already taking part in the war.

ever, and one of the effects of American participation in the war that will be felt soon and powerful in Germany will be German discouragement due to growing knowledge as to what America is doing.

The complete accord between ^the president and the allied leaders, referred to in the statement, will be bad news for Germans. The facts as to the arrivals of American troops and the success of American shipbuilding Will teach them that the U-boat is a greater failure than even their worst pessimists admit.

The front held by American troops is already considerable, and it is growing at a rate which shows that the supreme war council is not utterng an mpty boast when it predicts that the American army will make up for the gain of the Germans in their Russian success.

the heart of New York, which

is the island of Manhattan, is literally cut out for the eye to gaze upon, by the Hudson and East rivers, and the harbor itself. Imagine seaplane launched fifty miles out at sea and manned by a former officer of a German trans-atlantlc liner, a man who knows the city and its surroundings as well as he does his own pocket. He reaches lower Manhattan. He flies low to escape the fire of any guns we may have mounted to beat oft aircraft. Skimming fifty feet above the docks that line the shores of the Hudson and East rivers, he releases his bombs—• incendiary bombs which would set the entire water-side aflame.
