New York, Nov. 13.—Wall Street.
—Rails, shippings and coppers were
igain freely offered at the opening
of to-day's stock market, looses ex
tending front large fractions to two
points. The reaction also included
oils, utilities and numerous special
ties but motors, tobaccos and Bald
win Locomotives were higher. I*. S.
Steel duplicated yesterday's lowest
quotation, but rallied slightly in the
tirst half hour. Much of the early
selling seemed to be prompted by
fear of further tailing of bank loans.
Trading in domestic and foreign
bonds was moderate at irregular
changes.

United War Work Campaign-Week or November 11-1918
Hov/ One Girl Won French
War Cross While Serving
Wiih the Allied Army
How Miss Evelyn G. Smalley, of
New York, won u Croix do Guerre
for conspicuous bravery In serving;
soldiers and French civilians under
flic was related this week upon the;
arrival from overseas of agents of
the United War Work Campaign.
Miss Smalley's exploit was one of ,
the most daring in all the long list
of heroic deeds performed by toilers
of the Y. M. C. A., Y. W. C. A., Na
tional Catholic War Council and K
of C., War Camp Community Serv
ice, Jewish Welfare Board, American
Library Association and Salvation
Army the seven organisations
which will strive to raise 8170,G0u,-
060 during the week of November
11-18 in order to maintain and ex-,
pand their cheering and moralc
„eliding service.
Just back of Rheims lay the Y. M.
C- A. hut in which Miss Smalley was
serving. When tho Germans un
leashed all the fury of their guns in
w heavy bombardment, the civilians
nic.de a rush -for a bomb-proof cel
lar. Miss Smalley with them, the
military police ordering her there! 1
Foi four, hours the pitiful group
ctayed huddled together while shells
burst outside. There was nothing to
etc, and nothing to drink. Finally
Miss Smalley ventured outside, took
It on the run to her hut and return
ed u few minutes later with a big
bundle of eating chocolato ami a
bucket of water. Having escaped the
shells this time, she became braver,
went back to the hut and remain
ed at her post, handing out dainties
to slightly wounded soldiers sent
back from the front.
While she was engaged In this, a
high power shell landed just outside;
the little building and blew away
one end of it. killing several men
and severely wounding others. Miss
Smalley then joined with some of the
more slightly wounded n#?n in carry
ing their less fortunate comrades to .
places of comfort and safety. One
was so badly hurt that he had to be
taken to the base hospital fifteen
miles away, and she took turns with
the soldiers in bearing the stretcher.
Reports of her activity during the '
bombardment were conveyed to the |
French military authorities. Two
weeks later the Croix de Guerre was
pinned on her uniform.

J for study.
Advances In Expenses
The contention of the lompa - '", as
[ shown by Mr. O'Connell, is that the
j advance in wages, materials and other
I charges required the extra cent to
which many people in ilarrisbuig
object. The increase In cost per car
mile was given as to per cent. In
t four years. In 1916 it was given as
; .161 cents; in 1918. .22 cents, while
the passenger cost par zone went up
over 17 per cent.
| The four cents an hour advance In
i wages recently made. Mr. O'Connell
stated, would mean 530,00q more a
' year.
These figures on October were died

LIEUT. SOUDERS
WRITES OF WAR
Former Telegraph Man Tells
How Yanks Warred on
the Germans
Lieutenant Harry A. Souders, for- I
| merly with the Telegruph. writes en-1
| tertainingly of the recent -fighting in |
Kranco. In a letter to u friend he]
; says: •
Lieutenant Sou tiers' interesting
i letter is as follows:
October 19. 11l 18.
My Dear B. M. O.:
It was yesterday tnat your gloom
' dispelling letter reached me anil i
1 this prompt—aye, instantaneous—
j reply should be ample proof of the
I welcome it received at my hands. ]
j God, man, a letter like that is worth |
going days without Camels—were I
1 that necessary.
Was much amused at Hook's story i
] of my phone call to him that night
! down at Flames, llave not seen hint
I for several months, due to the faet ;
• that we've been' so darned far up j
that his trucks can't come within ]
! shooting distance of us.
j Have never been able to locate!
j Captain Stuckpole, although I've j
! been among his regiment frequently.
] I'll locate the duffer yet some of,
i these days—but, say, it's tough to 1
draw the sort of luck that's been j
j thrown his way. Since the arrival
: of your letter 1 shall make a special :
i effort to see hiin.
| Your request for a Hun helmet j
|shall most certainly be canted out—
! and the one 1 send you will be Bend- j
| me, all right. 11 you could but see
n here we are at present you d re-J
alizo that a phoney sou.eMr out i
here is in the same category as the [
wahoo bird. It just ain't-—that's all! j
Let me try to tell you something j
of our surroundings. I've located my !
telephone exchange In a dugout, j
which, until a very short time ago, |
| was the abode of Huns with horns, j
There are four rooms to it. 'One, the j
•smallest of all, I've had the boys use |
as it kitchen. The next is our dining i
room. Another my "oftlee force" j
uses as a sleeping chamber, while j
the last one 1 use as my office, ex
change and sleeping chamber for |
myself.
We have rigged up our own elee- !
trie lighting system out of electric |
scraps left behind by the retreating j
Huns. In the dining room we have j
a piuno—a real, honest-to-Josephus i
piano—that's busy twenty-two hours j
per day grinding out made-in-Amer- j
lea melody. We've been up here for J
fours days now, but they've not been j
able to get rations to us thus for. j
i Does that annoy us? Not for a min- i
. me. The Hun left plenty of food j
| for us, and, strange as it may sound, j
: I've been living on asparagus tips on |
| toast, steaming hot buckwheat cakes j
and syrup, bacon, vegetables (mfny>
'of 'em), coffee, cocoa, milk, sugar, j
much bread', prepared Hun soups, j
tapioca, canned fruits and goodness |
knows what not.
It's really remarkable the way the j
American soldier adapts himself to 1
whatever confronts him. 1 came In i
here with about ten signal men to i
estublish an exchange when we j
! bumped into till these outs, for a I
| minute 1 wondered whether I'd tind j
j a cook, but before 1 could worry i
j much, one of 'em hud his coat off.
j his sleeves rolled up and was hard
lat work getting dinner ready. As a
I chef he's a "top hole" as the Brit
ishers say, and we've lived like kings
ever since.
Last night, was talking to a
brother officer and ouv conversation
turned to our negro troops. He told
me of several colored chaps who had
been working on a road, tilling shell
holes, etc. They were returning one
I evening to their billets and had to
pass a battery of heavies which were
! well camouflaged aong the roadside,
j Just as they passed the battery let
go a salvo and the chaps were
! knocked flat by the concussion. One
j big fellow crawled to his feet, brush
ing the mud from his clothes, and
j glanced towards the guns—then to
! wards the line and back at the guns,
j Turning once again in the direction
the shells had gone, he drawled:
"Now, Mr. Katsct —s pose you counts
yoh sqljahs!"
But the woods over here are full
of negro stories —all of 'em good.
Some day I hope to be able to tell
| 'em to you over a quiet table.
Write me again, and my very best
I to all the old force.
Sincerely, '
HARRY A. SOUDEKS.
TO REINSURE SOLDIERS
Washington. Nov. 13.—Prepara
tions by the government for reinsur

tary or naval service now holding

BETTER HOUSING
AFTER THE WAR
[Continued from First I'age.]
would not undergo much change
downward for several ymtvs.
The extraordinary and countrywide
demands which will be made on
building materials for a long while
to come he assigned as the reason.
The building of ho'i.i -s in Hairis
burg, said Mr. Gipple, had been de
ferred almost since the beginning of
the war. This outs the city, he ex
plained, fully three years behind its
building schedule. In order to make
this up. stupendous effort', he staled,
must be made by builders -when con
ditions become near normal again.
The average, yearly Dutldlng expen
diture in Harrisburg. laol.ired Mr.
Gipple. was in the neighborhood of
tl,t<>o,ooo, reaching, in some years,
as high as 52 OpO.OOO During the
three years past, with the exception
of one important undertaking, fiscal
outlays for new building! have been
nil.
Situation Is Had
With the great influx of war work
ers into Harrisburg during the last
three years, the problem here, as in
other Induslllal centers, has been one
of housing accommodation. In most
cases, families of workers were pre
vented from coming here due to the
impossibility of getting adequate
quarters. As the government has
signified llj Intention cf permitting
no letdown in r.iuTdt'.on-ir.uklng oi in
the fulfilling of Its numberless war
eontfacts, labor will work under
nearly as great a pressure ns he rc
tofore and accordingly Its c'lleleiit
