EMPEY ASKS FOR TOBACCO FUND [Continued from First Page.] | raked No Man's Land in the Kal | ser's trenches. "Hardshells," reiterated the fa j mous author of "Over the Top," ' who gave two years of his life and | was wounded three times facing the | vandal in France, of those who do I no't have such mistaken notions but I who neglect to send in their con tributions to the soldiers' fund. Sergeant Empey spent the night in Harrisburg after being snow bound here while on his way from New York to Altoona. Because of 1 the nature of the address, the patri otic one he gave here several weeks, the fuel administrator waived the ruling that keeps theaters closed to day and Empey will be permitted to give his lecture at Altoona this even ing. Incidentally, while here the ser geant's first thought was to do some thing for the tobacco fund being raised by the Harrisburg Telegraph. It was the sergeant who bid in his own book in the Chestnut Street Auditorium for the benefit of the tobacco fund when bidding of Har risburfeers grew lax. This book was afterward purchas ed by a syndicate of Harrisburgers who contributed about S4OO which was sent to Sergeant Empley for the fund. "What right have these hard shells," he exclaimed, "to say what the men in the trenches ought, to have? What do they know about it? The fellows who stay at home; the fellows who have no idea of ever going across! "A good idea would be to let such fellows go across and try the work," he added. "That would let the men who need tobacco now and need it badly come home." The sergeant added that he wished every man and woman in Harris burg would contribute something to the Harrisburg Telegraph's fund for smokes. Each quarter contrib uted will send tobacco worth forty five cents to some American soldier in France, along with a card carry ing the contributor's name, which may be mailed back giving the lucky man's thanks. • Elks to Look After Members Who Are Injured in Service Elks of Pennsylvania are to take care of those of their brothers who have answered their country's 'call, In the event they meet with injury or misfortune while in the nation's service.

TROOPS , IN 1918, SAYS BAKER [Continued from First l'age.] eral Pershing, the thirty-two divi sions of troops now In cantonments and camps in the United States and j leady to move, Secretary Baker said, j and of the next Increments to bo | drawn and trained this spring under the selective service law. Secretary Baker said: Elemental equipment of the men I from the United States is assured I and the artillery necessary to their j support will come from the Brit j ish and French governments, which ; have such an /excess of ordnance j that they have on their own Initia tive offered to supply the guns and ; save ships which would be used for I their transport. Chairman Chamberlain asked the Secretary why he could not take the public into his confidence in the mat ter. Secretary Baker replied he hesi tated to do that. He referred to a statement by General Von Hinden- I burg to the effect America was j'd vertising her intentions. "But isn't it a fact that Germany has known all about this?" persisted Senator Chamberlain. Germany Mystified "No," replied Secretary Baker. "The German government is still mystified regarding the number of men now in France. They know what is doing at the front, but Ger many fs still mystified regarding the number of men now In France." His statement, Mr. Baker added, was made on the basis of the relia ble confidential reports received by the War Department. The Secretary went on to explain that all warring countries try to keep such things entirely confiden tial. • . , "Why, I don't believe I even could get the number of men Great Britain has now In France or at home, or even could get the information from Frapce,™ he said. "That may be unnecessary, but it is precaution that is followed by all military men." If the whole Regular Army had been sent into battle at once, Sec retary Baker said, like England's, it would been destroyed. In eloquent words, Secretary Ba ker, described how France welcom ed the first American soldiers, peas ants kissing, he said, the hems of I their coats. Going in Unbroken Stream "Of course, they welcomed the British, but then their need was not so great, nor were the ties to Eng- ] land so close," he said. "So an in- ] stant response came from France, and our soldiers have continued toj go over in an unbroken stream. "At this hour we have a fighting army in Franc'e, seasoned andCtralu ed to warfare. Joffre said it might , take some time for us to get a train ! Ed army over there, but that we were a great Industrial country and could send artisans immediately. "Although not coneemplated at | the outset, we have organized regi | ments of railroad men who are be building railroads behind the British i i'.nd French lines as they advance.

Almost before we were In the war Red Cross nurses, doctors nnd ambulance drivers in great num bers were sent over. Our early loss es were of these. "But that was not enough. It was suggested further that mechan ics were needed. Special .studies were made. Wo found that rail roads and other facilities of France had been kept in excellent condi ticn, far better than we had thought." Maintaining Own Army But despite the conditions of France's railroads, he said, it, was found necessary to provide trans portation facilities for the American Army in France because of the great demands upon those already there. "In other words," he said! "France was a white sheet of pa per. As far .as we were concerned we not only had to write an army on that sheet, but we also had to provide maintenance. "We have been building facili ties and agencies in France, just as much as in this country, of the same character. We have built clocks, terminals, sent over dock machin ery, cranes, even piles, warehouses at ports or disembarkation for the shortage of vast supplies needed be fore distribution. We are taking over and are in process of rebuild ing a railroad 600 miles long from our ports of embarkation to our base of operations."
