TERRE HAUTE ROOKIES PLEASED WITH MEXICO

Glad They Went—None Bat the Mollyooddleg Complain of Work, They Say.

A letter from Albert Church, a member of Company B, on duty on the Mexican border, near Llano Grande, denies the stories of the hardships of the national guardsmen printed in some of the northern papers, and declares that he intends to remain in the army service for a full enlistment. The Terre Haute soldier declares that he has looked on every possible occasion for a rattlesnake without success and as for the heat, he says the temperature has never been greater than 90 degrees and with this there is always a cool breeze. The troops stationed at Llano Grand6 have slept under .blankets during the entire time they have been in camp and there have been no heat prostrations among any of the Indiana companies.

Private Church has been acting as company clerk most of the time and he expects to receive that office permanently about September 1. This will relieve him from all details as well as give him extra duty pay.

Church declares that every Terre Haute boy will profit by his experience and says that none but the "mollycoddles" Complain about the food or hard work. H© says they are all well fed and the work is What they expected.

he chose the plan of settlement based on the eight-hour day. W. L. Chambers of the federal mediators went to the men's hall at the request of the brotherhood officials to explain some features of the situation. He went into executive session, with the heads of the four brotherhoods on the subject of overtime.

In the men's meeting the leading objection to President Wilson^ plan was that If It were accepted without the extra pay for overtime the nien demanded the railroads would contend that the sole purpose of the men was to obtain more money and not to get the eight-hour day.
