BONUS CAMP WILL RISE IN WILDERNESS ‘Army’ Vanguard at Lonely Maryland Site Is Led by Woman. BV HARRY FERGUSON I nilfd I’rest .Staff Correnond*nt (Convritrht. 1932. bv United Pr<*ssi WATERBURY. Md.. Aug. 2. Campfires winked in the darkness along the Maryland ridges Monday night as the vanguard of the bonus expeditionary forces— led by a wom-an-settled down to hack a camp out of the wilderness. Mrs. Joseph G. Bullion, a pretty brunet dressed in white duck trousers an da man's shirt, stood beside a cotton wood sapling from which fluttered a small American flag. It had come unscarred through the flame and gas that drove the veterans out of Washington last week. Around her clustered a. pathetic, mud-plastered group of men—seventeen in all—and listened as she rallied them to face the rigors of another night in the open. "We’ll not be here by ourselves very long." she said. "The boys are coming from Johnstown to join us. Just stick it out a little longer, and we will have plenty of food for everybody. Stay Till We Get Bonus "We're going to stay here until we get the bonus and don't you forget it. We’ve got to stay here; there isn’t any other place to go." It is a far cry from the comparative comforts of Anacostia— W'ith its regular food supply, circus barkers and effleientiy-equipppd kitchens—to this little clearing amid the elms and cottonwoods, where life settles grimly ’down to the simple and elemental question of whether this woman and these men will be able to wrest a living out of the wilderness. They are fighting a pioneer baftle against rain, wind, heat and the stubborn soil. Th.-y are here because Mrs. Mauri Edgell offered the tract as a campsite, feeling "that the boys got a dirty deal in Washington." Mrs. Bullion, who accompaned her husband when he left their home in Egg Harbor. N. J„ weeks ago to march on Washington, feels confident reinforcements are on the way, and she has the word of Commander Walter W. Waters that, 4.000 men will be moving toward Waterbur.v within a week. No Sign of Civilization Four houses, huddled together at a railroad crossing, make up the town of Waterbur.v. A dirt road twists down through the shoulderhigh corn fields, and a mile and a half from the town the road dwindles away into the fields. A cowpath meanders on up to a ridge, through trees that have not known the biting edge of an ax since pioneer days. There is no sign of civilization—no roads, no houses, no tractors—until the visitor comes abruptly into the clearing. At the side of the path stands E. W. Lambert of Detroit, technically in charge of the camp. But the real commander—Mrs. Bullion—is beside a tarpaulin tent, grasping a broken shovel with which she has been digging post holes. Around her are four other smaller tents. Although there are only seventeen persons in this outpost of the B. E. F., the camp embraces, geographically, all of the United States. From the east there is Frank Shaw of New York; from the west, E. O'Neal of San Francisco; from the south, B. A Fox of Dallas; from the north, E. W. Lambert of Detroit.

BOY CADETS OF PARAGUAY OFF TO WAR Drums Call Youths From Classes After General Mobilizing Call. By Vnitrrt T'rr** ASUNCION, Paraguay. Aug. 2. Youthful cadets of the national military academy marched to the drums that called them to a war against Bolivia today, after congress authorized general mobilization. Women wept, men cheered wildly, and boys in their teens joined veterans in the rush to recruiting stations after the cadets marched through the capital streets for the last time before starting for the Gran Chaco region. The crowds shouted "Paraguay, Paraguay,” as the cadets marched briskly to the residence of President Guggaria, who bid them farewell. * Classes Suspended for War A bulletin at the military academy notified the cadets that classes were suspended in order to form an infantry battalion for service in the Chaco. "The cadets will parade in the streets for the last time and bid farewelj to the president of the republic before the young soldiers take up their fighting positions." the bulletin said. "Tomorrow' to barracks; later to the Chaco, w'ith firm resolve.” The foreign office made a final bid for abritration of the dispute with Bolivia in a cablegram to the president of the League of Nations council.
