YANKEES MAY BE FIRST IN GERMANY (Ry Associated Press) WASHINGTON. Nov. 23. The Am erican army of occupation may be the first of the major military forces moving toward the Rhine to set foot on German soil. General Pershing re ported to the war department that his advance had reached a line just across the Mozelle from Rhennish Prussia. Tonight or tomorrow they will be moving toward Coblentz, the Rhine bridgehead assigne dto tho United States to hold over German territory. French forces reached the Rrine near the Swiss border some days ago. It may be that patrol detachments of : this army already have penetrated t through the forty kilometer zone j which will be held a sneutral terri tory until the peace treaty fixes new boundaries, but it is regardes as probable that the American third army will lead the real advance into Germany. Investigation has shown that more linemen are injured than any other class of men employed in tha electriI cal industry, but that only a small I percentage of accidents are due to j electric shock.

POWER IDEA OF NATIONS TO GO SAYS NOVELIST League of Nations in Accord With Human Nature and Nationality, Britain Believes (By Associated Press) ' LONDON, Nov. 23 "The Great Power Idea" as represented by foreign offices, must be done away with if the proposed league of nations is to be a fuccess. H. G. Wells, the novelist and publicist, told a large audienec at the American Officers' club. A League of Nations, he said, was in accord with human nature and the spirit of nationality; and it was not opposed even to what Americans would call the "king business." But the Great Power idea would have to be exercised if mankind was not to go down in bloodshed and ruin. The Great Power idea, he explained, was that each state was in conflict with all other states, and it absolutely opposed the idea of the common welfare of man. "It was only a little more active in Berlin," he asserted, "than in the other capitals of Europe. Every foreign office, war office and admiralty has been organized to carry out the Great Power dreams. ' "Foreign , offices are too secretive and advantage-seeking instruments, and too antiquated for the difficult task of dealing fairly with all other nations under a League of Nations. "The United States is in a different position. It is a republic, with a president capable of speaking plainly to the peoples of the earth in a manner which is enough to produce an epidemic of epilepsy in European foreign offices." A League of Nations would have to substitute, he said, some sort of central control in which diplomacy would

'have to be pooled and represent the whole of mankind. If this was left to the present foreign offices to arrange, he contended, it would be asking them to arrange for their own extinction. he added, "of complete victory. But I something more than Germany is the maiier wun Europe ai me present time. Unless the Great Power system embodied in present-day foreign offices, pursuing secret policies, is destroyed, this war will not have been worth while.

Need of Small Rental Houses Problem in City s Growth

A shortage 5 of small modern rental houses is an existing impediment to the development of Richmond, according to the statements of leading real estate dealers who have observed recently a marked influx of families who wish to make the city their homes. It was said today by a city official in position to make observation in this regard, that with ' the close of the war and the closing down of a great many munition plants, instances are increasing daily where former residents of the city who have been temporarily employed elsewhere, are desirous of returning to the city; but houses of the type in demand among factory people are unavailable. One trucking concern reported today that they had removed the effect3 of four families from Dayton to Richmond within the past few days, and that they have orders on hand for the removal of seven more, as soon as homes are available. It is pointed out that the manufacturing .plants of this city are of a character that will bo affected favorably by the close of the war and return to normal peace conditions, and in consequence much additional help will be required. Those who have noted conditions state that unless some effort is made by individuals, or by some civic prganization, to overcome existing conditions and to provide homes for these people, not Cambridge City, Ind. Daniel Gray, of Salt Lake City, and John E. Gray, of New York City, were called here on account of the serious illness of their father, John E. Gray. . ..Miss Hezel Steifle is home ill....

Chrysanthemums Are Most Popular Flower for Thanksgiving The overwhelming popularity of chrysanthemum blossoms this year Is almost without precedent, according to Richmond florists.

Thanksgiving sales are expected to start within the next few days, and all Richmond florists are looking forward to a rush

General Biddle is in command of the American, only with the growth of the city's population be impeded; but the efficiency of her industries will be handicapped for lack of required help. It is practically impossible today, say the dealers, to , find desirable small rental property in the city of Richmond, and before the winte is half over, conditions will become much more strenuous than at the present time. The time was never more auspicious than at the present hour to add materially to the city's population from these sources, and it is being agitated that an active building program be inaugurated by individuals and local commercial organizations. Resigns From Cabinet While I am here upon the sea, And fighting for Uncle Sam, The papers seldom mention me, For I'm only a sailor man. But we are proud to do our duty, Though never a praise we get; We've put soldiers across without a loss. But we havn't any credit yet. When I read in the papers from the home-land, In flaring headlines I see. How the soldiers are facing the danger Not a word from the man on the sea. They raise funds for tobacco for soldiers, Have banquets and meetings at camp, And talk of the harships they suffer, When they to the trenches tramp. The sailor, he has to stand watches, In the top where the cold wind blows, While the ship pitches he has to take hitches, And to danger he's always exposed. But we're willing to fight for our country, And as long as we're afloat, And we'll never give up the ship For the Hun and hi3 dirty U-boat. We never know what to expect from them, And we're always ready at sea. We'll do our best to protect it The flag of Liberty! Now we don't want credit not due us. We know the soldiers fame; But should a torpedo pierce thru us. We'll stick to our ship just the same. And if we go down to Davy Jones' Locker, And the waters go over our heads, Then they'll have a line In the papers, But what's the use then? we'll all "" be dead. RAY WILLIAMS. U. S. S.

AMERICAN TROOPS HAKE ENTRANCE INTO LUXEMBURG Pershing and Grand Dutches Watch Progress of Troops Through Capital. LUXEMBURG, Nov. 23.

tlad German soldiers depart for their own country after the occupation of her duchy for more than four years. The American, army of occupation, under General Dickman, tonight controls every road, city and village in Luxemburg. The Belgians were more demonstrative in some cases upon the arrival of allied forces, but it was impossible to doubt the sincerity of the welcome given by the residents of Luxemburg. The grand duchess and the members of her cabinet expressed gratification that Americans had come to take the place of those whom they had been forced to tolerate for so many years. Popular approval "was expressed in a great demonstration when the people sighted General Pershing, and again when the dusty column of American soldiers moved through the streets. Proclamation Issued. Prior to the entry of the troops, Gen. Pershing, in a proclamation, assured the public that the American army would remain only as long as was necessary, and while it was in Luxemburg, would conduct itself In conformity with the civil law. The proclamation was distributed among the troop as well as among the population. The grand duchess had taken up her temporary residence in the grand ducal palace in Luxemburg, in ordor to be present when her capital was occupied by friendly forces. It was their that Brig. Gen. Frank J. Parker was received when he called to assure her of the attitude of the advancing forces.
