AMERICAN LINE
HOLDS UNDER TWO
GERMAN RAIDS
400 Picked Men Lost in Vain
Attempt to Raid U. S.
Trenches
With Hip American Army In
France, Saturday, April 13 (Delayed)
—After another niglit of terrific ar
tillery fire and a bombardment with
sas shells, the Germans continued to
oay their efforts to drive through to
the third line of the American posi
tions near Apremont forest, north
west of Toul. They made two at
tacks, both of which failed.
The enemy's casualties in the four
days' fighting are estimated at be
tween 300 and 400. Of this number,
more than 100 were killed. Although
the enemy wasted fully a half of his
specially trained shock troop battal
ion of 800 men, he was unable to
penetrate the American lines, which
remained unchanged.
Of the thirty-six prisoners taken
ay American troops in the lighting
on Friday northwest of Toul, during
■which two German attacks in force
were respulsed with heavy casualties
tn the enemy, twelve have since died
of their wounds. The American
troops captured two German
machine gi:ns, besides a quantity of
small arms, grenades and other war
material.
Ueimann Without Food
The prisoners taken belonged to
the Twenty-fifth and Sixty-fifth
Landwehr units, the Sixteenth Pio
neers and the Uhlans. The prisoners
said they had had no food for two
days, as the American artillery had
prevented their rations from being
brought up to their position. The
captive Germans quickly devoured
the food given them by our men.
The enemy front lines had been
destroyed by shell fire, and during
Friday's attack the Americans tem
porarily abandoned their own front
line, allowed the Germans to enter it
and then forced them to engage in
hand-to-hand fighting In the open, in
v hlch the American troops greatly
excelled.
This attack, which was the longest
iiiid largest scale operation conduct
ed against the American troops
since the entry of the United States
into the war, has developed many
deeds of individual bravery and hero
ism. A young lieutenant, whose
hemo is just outside of Boston, with
three enlisted men attacked nineteen
Germans who had penetrated into one
of the American trenches.
The lieutenant called on the Ger
mans to surrender. One of them
raised his pistol, as if to shoot, but
fhe lieutenant shot him through the
head, upon which the others lifted
tl eir hands high in the air and
yelled "kainerad." The lieutenant
marched the prisoners into the rear
of our line and then returned to thr
front and resumed the command of
his platoon.
Musician* Carry Wounded
Five other Americans penetrated
into a German dugout, where twelve
of the enemy were slightly wounded.
Thf.y resisted surrender, l.ut our
ir.cn threw grenades into the dugout,
killing four of the Germans. The
others quickly gave themselves up.
A small party of bandsmen vol
unteered for stretcher-bearing duty
in the first line and worked until
they were nearly exhausted. The
chief surgeo i ordered them to re
lirn for a rest, but they hid until
(he surgeon disappeared and then
resumed their lirst-aid duties.
A 19-year-old courier who carried
a message inore than two miles under
heavy shell fire fell exhausted after
delivering his message into the hands
of the commander of the unit. After
:i short rest ho begged to be al
lowed to continue his front-line cour
ier service.
Another lieutenant, commanding a
riachine gun unit, just missed being
struck by a shell which buried the
gun, but he ordered his men to dig
out the piece, and soon had it firing
again into the German positions.
Scores of officers and men who
l ad been assigned to rear-line duty
pleaded for an opportunity to go to
the front line. The artillerymen also
did courageous work and furnished
wonderful support for the American
infantry.
GERMANS TAKK AMERICAN

lirrlln, April 15.—German troops,

Prohibition Needs Votes
to Win, Says Minister
"Temperance has been held up, they
say, because of men in the church,"
reminded l>r. George Edward H'awes
yesterday in Market Square Church.
"If we had not talked so loud and had
voted more consistently the blessings
of a dry land would now be ours.
"Every thug, every saloonkeeper,
every bartender sees to it that he is
enrolled and votes. Now let us see
what we can do. Some '.n my audi
ence here before me belong to that
group, large in Pennsylvania and the
iTnited States which has been 'slack
ing' on this question. Now let us be
resolved to end this business."
This was the keynote of many ser
mons yesterday in churches within
the jurisdiction of the Carlisle Pres
bytery. A resolution for full enroll
ment at the primaries, and another
for "back-fire" against German propa
ganda wherever it exists, were read
in each church.
Labor Spurs Proletariat
to Demand Food Seizure
By Associated Press
Amsterdam, April 15.—The Tele
graaf says that the Extreme Labor
party is circulating a manifesto
among the proletariat, inciting them
to strike and demanding that the au
thorities seize all food stocks in
private hands and also the distribu
tion of the reserve.
The manifesto fixes the respon
sibility for the food disturbances on
"unscrupulous persons who have
bartered Holland's foodstuffs for
300,000,000 florins, German and Aus
trian bills," and denounces the prof
iteers who "are coining millions by
the starvation of Dutch children."

May 4
MONDAY EVENING,
"Outwitting the Hun"
By Lieutenant Pat O'Brien
(Copyright, 1918, by Pat Alva O'Brien.)
rl . The next two days
passed without in
i ; j ident and 1 was
. lien taken i" the
ntelllgence Depart
j ment of the German
. apm / 1 Flying Corps, which
.< . was located about
I njPw an hour from the
i hospital. There I
jt-, was kept two days,
during which time
they put a thousand
and one questions
to me. While I was there 1 turned
over to them the message I had
written in the hospital and asked
them to have one of their fliers drop
it on our side of the line.
The Enemy's Efficiency
They asked me where I would like
to have it dropped, thinking per
haps I would give my aerodrome
away, but when I smiled and shook
my head they did not insist upon an
answer.
"I'll drop it over" declared
one of them, naming my aerodrome
which revealed to me that their fly
ing corps is as efficient as other
branches of the service in the mat
ter of obtaining valuable informa
tion.
And right here I want to say that
the more I came to know of the
enemy, the more keenly I realized
what .a difficult task we're going to
have to lick him. In all my subse
quent experiences, the fact that there
is a heap of light left in the Huns
still was thoroughly brought home
to" me. We shall win the war even
tually, if we don't slow up too soon,
in the mistaken idea that the Huns
are ready to lie down.
The flying officers who questioned
me were extremely anxious to find
out all they could about the part
America is going to play in the war,
but they evidently came to the con
clusion that America hadn't taken
me very deeply into her confidence,
judging from the information they
got, or failed to get, from me.
At any rate, they gave me up as
a bad job, and I was ordered to the
officers' prison at Coutrai, Belgium.
CHAPTER V
The Prison Cninp at Coutrai
From the Intelligence Department
I was conveyed to the officers' prison
camp at Courtrai in an automobile.
It was about an hour's ride. My es
cort was one of the most famous
flyers in the world, barring none. He
van later killed in action, but I was
told by an English .airman who wit
nessed his last combat, that he
fought a game battle and died a
hero's death.
The prison, which had evidently
been a civil prison of some kind be
fore the war, was located right in
the heart of Courtrai. The first
building we approached was large
and in front of the archway, which
formed the main entrance, was a
sentry box. Here we were chal
lenged by the sentry, who knocked
on the door; the guard turned the
key in the lock and I was admit
ted.
We passed through the archway
and directly into a courtyard, on
which faced all of the prison build
ings, the windows of course being
heavily barred. After I had given i
CZERNIN QUITS
UNDER PEACE FIRE
[Continued from First Page.]
the satisfaction of Germany and the
German emperor, probably were the
most potent influence in bringing
about the resignation of Count
Czernin.
Active For Peace
Since he was appointed foreign |
minister on December 23, 1916, in:
succession to Baron Burian, Count
Czernin has been very active in at
tempting to bring about peace and i
the moderate tone of his speeches
has been in sharp contrast with that
of the German chancellors and for
eign secretaries. However, his par
ticipation in the forced peace upon
Russia as well as that upon Ku
mania did not show that his actions
kept step with his words.
In the "peace offensive" of the
present year. Count Czernin, in the
Austrian Reichsrath on January 25,
suggested an exchange of views be
tween Austria Hungary and the
United States. He announced also
that Austria based her negotiations
with Russia on the policy of no an
nexations or indemnities but there
always was some doubt whether his
pacilist maneuvers were honest or
were inspired by Berlin in an effort
to bring about a split among the
entente allies.
French Premier Denies
Count Czernin, on April 4, in an
address at Vienna, declared Premier
Clemenceau has sought peace nego
tiations with Austria. The French
premier replied that Count Czernin
lied. The French and Austrian for
eign offices <nen issued statements'
explaining fnt unofficial negotia
tions in Switzerland.
Early last week the French gov
ernment declared Emperor Charles
and Count Czernin both had said the
claim of France to Alsace Lorraine
was just. This brought a denial
from Emperor Chsrles in the form
of a teegram to Emperor William
to whom he reiterated his loyalty
to the German cause and denied he
had said France was justified in
wanting Alsace Loraine returned.
This immediately brought from the
French government the publication
of a letter from Emperor Charles to
his brother-in-law. Prince Slxtus of
Bourbon, which was autographed
and which the emperor asked be
given to President Poincare. In the
letter the emperor said France
should have Alsace Loraine and that
Belgium and Serbia should be re
stored. He also asked that London
and Paris be felt out as to probable
peace terms.
Teuton Newspapers Attack Cliarlcs
German newspapers have attacked
both Emperor Charles and his for
eign secretary because of this letter
and attempts have been made to
show it was not written by the em
peror. It has been reported in
Vienna that there was no attempt to
hide its authenticity but that the
French verslan was garbled. It also
has been reported that the letter was
written by the emperor's mother-in
law.
Count Czernin was in Rumania
when the letter was published by
the French government and he was
summoned to Vienna Friday.
Count Ottokar Czernin Von Cha
denitz, a wealthy Bohemian land
owner, was minister to Rumania
when that country entered the war.
Within six weeks after the death of
Emperor Francis Joseph, Count
Czernin was appointed foreign min
ister by Emperor Charles. Count
Czernin is a very close friend of
Count Berchtold, foreign minister at
the outbreak of the war and who has
been reported as the political men
tor of the young emperor. Count
my pedigree—my name, age, ad
dress, etc —I was shown to a cell
with bars on the windows overlook
ing this courtyard.- I was promptly
told that at night we were to oc
cupy these rooms, but I had already
surveyed the surroundings, taken
account of the number of guards
and the locked door outside, and
concluded that my chances of get
ting away froth some other place
could be no worse than in that par
ticular cell.
Aroused Curiosity
As I had no hat, my helmet being
the only thing I had worn over the
lines. I was compelled either to go
bareheaded or wear the red cap of
the Bavarian whom I had shot down
on that memorable day. It can be
imagined how I looked attired in a
British uniform and a bright red
cap. Wherever X was taken my out
fit aroused considerable curiosity
among the Belgians and German
soldiers.
When I arrived at prison that day
I still wore this cap, and as I was
taken into the courtyard my over
coat covering by uniform, all that
the British officers who happened to
be sunning themselves in the court
yard could see was the red cap.
They afterward told me they won
dered who the "big Hun" was with
the bandage on his mouth. This cap
1 managed to keep with me, but was
never allowed to wear it on the walks
|we took. I either went bareheaded
or borrowed a cap from some other
prisoner.
At certain hours each day the pris
oners were allowed to mingle in the
courtvard, and on the first occasion
of this kind I found that there were
eleven officers imprisoned there be
side myself.
They had here interpreters who
could speak all languages. One of
them was a mere boy who had been
born in Jersey City, N. J., and had
spent all his life in America until
the beginning of 1914. Then he
moved with his folks to Germany,
and when he became of military age
the Huns forced him into the army.
I think if the truth were known he
would much rather have been fight
ing for America than against her.
I found that most of the prisoners
remained at Courtrai only two or
three days. From there they were
invariably taken to prisons in the
interior of Germany.
Whether it was because I was an
American, or because I was a flyer,
I don't know, but this rule was not
followed in my case. I remained
there two weeks.
During this period Courtrai was
constantly bombed by our airmen.
Not a single day or night passed
without one or more lir raids. In
the two weeks I was thsro I counted
twenty-one of them. The town suf
fered a great deal of damage. Evi
dently our people were aware that
the <Jo:*n'i ns had a lot of troops con
ceiiii™ in this town, and besides
the Headquarters Staff was stationed
there.
The Kaiser himself visited Cour
trai while I was in the prison, 1 was
told by one of the interpreters, but
he didn't call on me, and for obvious
reasons I couldn't call on him.
(To Be Continued)
Berchtold has been opposed to the
Pan-German war party and his res
ignation was brought about by tliem.
In addition to being foreign min
ister Count Czernin was premier and
chancellor of the dual empire. He
is about 61 years old.
TIME FOR ACTION,
SAYS RABBI HAAS
[Continued from First Pago.]
Third Liberty Loan and to urge one's
friends to go and do likewise.
We "over here" must provide the
sinews of war for our boys "over
there." We at homo must provide
our government with the financial
assistance to enable it to furnish our
boys "under the colors" with every
possible necessity and comfort.
Our boys—a hundred thousand of
them or more—are now in the thick
est of fray. Many additional thou
sands, yes tens and hundreds of thou
sands are going over each day to
take up their positions on the battle
front "to do or die," We'll soon have
a million and a'half of men "some
where in France" and the country is
preparing to send over twice and
thrice this number if necessary.
These boys are fighting your battle
and my battle. They're engaged in
a most sacred and lioly cause. They're
waging battle to overthrow and de
stroy, for all time, the power of auto
cracy and imperialism. They're wag
ing conflict that neither might nor
the mailed fist nor the iron bed of
militarism, but that right and justice
shall rule the world. Our boys are
prepared to offer up their lives to
make the world a better, happier and
safer place for us to live in. Ought
we not put heart and courage into
them and cause them to realize that
we're with them to the very limit of
our resources? Ought wo not back
them up to the fullest extent of our
| means?
And when we are asked to help our
I government by buying Liberty Bonds
we are only lending our money for
I a certain period. We are making an
I investment which is a gilt-edge se
! cufity. The safest investment at all
| times is with the Bank of the United
I States of America and with the Arm
jof Uncle Sam and Company. In nub
scribing to the Liberty Loan we are
, subscribing to the one security of
i which both principal and interest are
! guaranteed by the wealthiest and
i most reliable government on earth.
Harrisburg has gone "over the
I top" in the two previous Liberty
Loan campaigns. Are we going to
repeat our former achievements? T
know that the people of our city nnd
vicinity are going to answer in but
one way, and that will be by making
the Third Liberty Loan an over
whelming and tremendous success.
Let each one of us help to place our
city on the honor roll and then make
it possible that the honor flag of the
Third Liberty Loan shall float over
our capital. Let. this emblem testify
that the citizens of Harrisburg
are 100 per cent Americans. Do
your duty and do it now.

Washington, April 15. —Senator
William Joel Stone, of Missouri, for
mer Governor of that State, chair
man of the Senate Foreign Relations
Committee and for many years
prominent among Democratic lead
ers, died here yesterday of paralysis.
Senator Stone suffered the stroke
last Wednesday while on a street car
on his way to the Senate office build
ing. A slight cerebral hemorrhage
affected his left side, rendering him
helpless, but he did not lose con- i
sciousncss and a few hours later
rulllcd and began to talk about get- I
ting up. ,
Yesterday there was a second cere
bral hemorrhage and the Senator
fell into a state of coma. Death came I
at 4.30 o'clock in the afternoon.
At the bedside were Mrs. Stone
and their children, Federal Judge I
Kimbrough Stone, of Kansas City; !
Mrs. John W. Parkinson, of St.
Joseph, Mo., and Miss Mabel Stone,
and niece. Miss Margaret Winston,
of St. Louis.
Senator IJeed announced last night
that funeral services will be held
this afternoon at 4 o'clock at the
home and the family, accompanied
jby a congressional committee, will
leave with the body in the evening
for St. Louis. At St. Louis a night
train will be taken for Jefferson
City, where the body will rest in
state in the State Capitol Wednes
day. That evening the body will be
taken to Nevada, Mo., Senator
Stone's old home, for burial there
Thursday by the Nevada Masonic
Lodge.
Since the European war started
Senator Stone has figured on news
paper "first pages" almost as much
as Theodore Roosevelt did in his
most conspicuous days.
America became a belligerent he
was vociferously In favor of peace,
and naturally became one of the
"twelve willful men" who voted
against war with Germany. At that
time, however, he said that it the
United States did enter the war he
would give the administration his
most ardent support.
He kept his word and for a while
the newspaper spotlight was turned
from him. Recently, however, he
again came under the spotlight when
he made a sensational speech in the
Senate attacking Senator Penrose
and former President Roosevelt,
whom he described as "the most po
tent agent of the Kaiser in America."
Republicans assert it was that
speech which destroyed political har
mony relative to President Wilson's
policies.
Although he had opposed the war
neutrality bill and had voted against
war with Germany, Stone supported
the President when the call came for
a war declaration against Austria.
As chairman of the Foreign Rela
tions Committee he was the spokes
man of the foreign policies of Presi
dent Wilson, and there never was an
intimation from the White House
except in the memorable statement
concerning the "twelve willful men,"
that the President mistrusted Stone
in that capacity.

Robert Morris and the First Bond of Liberty
It is interesting to know that during the American Revolution the first Bonds of Liberty were sold by Robert
Morris, whose personal credit was greater than that of the United States. In raising the money to transfer Washing
ton's Army from Dobbs Ferry to Yorktown, Morris had to borrow the money largely out of his own pocket and on his
private credit.
How different to-day, when the greatest security in the world,.is the word of the United States of America.
Do you think anybody in China, in Japan, or anywhere in the world would hesitate to buy American bonds?
The Hun himself would buy our bonds quicker than the bonds of his own country on a financial basis for our credit
is infinitely better than the Hun's. >
If foreigners are willing to buy American bonds, if Robert Morris wanted to go out in the snow and even loan
his own personal fortune to save his country, WHY SHOULD ANY OF US HESITATE THE FRACTION OF A
SECOND?
For your own sake—for your country's sake—buy Liberty Bonds.
