Miller Made Major in Army 13ii3S6BB^S^P?l MAJOR WILLIAM C. MILLER Dr. William C. Miller, of the State Health Department and member of the Harrisburg Rotary Club, has been commissioned a majpr in the Medical Department of the United States Army. The announcement was made to-day and Major Miller will leave shortly to take up his new duties. Dr. Miller was for twenty years a practicing physician in Bedford and served two terms in the Legis lature and two in the State Senate from that district. He has been connected with the State Health De partment as manager and lectu.-er for eight year* and while maintain ing his residence in Bedford has lived in Mechanicsburg. He is a graduate of Lafayette and of the medical department of the Univer sity of Virginia. William J. S. Mil ler, manager of the Pathescope Mo tion Picture Company in Harrisburg, is a son. Major Miller was born in Noesho, Mo., the son of a Civil War officer who was afterward made superin tendent of the Navahoe Indian re servation in New Mexico. The father was murdered by Indians and buried so far in the wilds that his grave never has been located. After ward Mrs. Miller returned to her i girlhood home in Bedford where Dr. Miller grew to manhoods GERMAN CRITICS CHANGE TONE AS U. S. SPEEDS UP Press Breaks Silence, but Seeks to Minimize Peril Washington, July 18.—The Ger man press has been forced by Ameri can military intervention in France to abandon its inspired policy of silence regarding the activities of the United States, according to a dis patch from an entente government received here yesterday. It quotes the admissions of a noted military critic, saying: "Very characteristic are the con fessions which Stegemann, the Ger manophlle military critic, was oblig ed t- make in the Bund of Berne. Their tone is no longer the same as it was. 'lf the war,' he declares, 'does not end in 1918, it is no longer pos sible to assign a term to it, either from a political or military point of view. The allies are awaiting the battle with growing confidence. They stm have reserves at their disposal I and the multitude of American re enforcements supplies them with moral guarantee." Admits Underestimating Us "In regard to the importance of this aid, Stegemann confessed that his last estimates already have been exceeded. 'We estimated,' he said, 'the Americans at 500,000 fighting men. We are obliged to add that these figures are rapidly rlsijig. The first million already have been ex ceeded. The most difficult problem consists in preparing this mass for mobile warfare. The English, who have improved with astonishing suc cess the setting up of several million men, have experienced this difficulty. But is the French army, with its highly trained headquarters staff, its excellent officer corps. Its troops full of suppleness and quick at adapting themselves to existing circumstances, which provides the brain and mar row of military resistance for the entente? The forces of the German army will find themselves faced by French, British and American If you need Glasses come to me. Scientific work, re liable goods.

But can the political consequences be foreseen? That Is another question.' "Thus Stegemann, like Von Kuehl mann, acknowledges that he no longer believes in a decisive German victory." The dispatch states that "for a long time the GermaA papers have been silent about the entry Into line of the American troops." It contin ues: "The role played by these troops in the beginning of June in the region of Chateau Thierry In the very center of the b&ttle, has not permitted the press to continue in that attitude. It is forced to try to dispel the growing anxiety of public opinion by stating that the figures furnished by enemy telegrams are incorrect. People Arc Still Deceived "That is what the official commen -tary is trying to make people accept. One communique has tried to prove in a jocular way that the news spread by the French radio telegrams about the arrival of 1,000,000 American troops constitutes a gigantic piece of hluff. The Norddeutsche Allgemelne Zeitung said even if the statement were verified there would be no oc casion for alarm, since it is only a question of improvised soldiers. AH the papers conform more or less to the tone of the official press. Some of them, however, have succeeded only in hiding their real anxiety. Others confess that the action of the United States is more rapid than was expected and may impede the suc cess of the German arms.
