Urges American People Not
to Relax Efforts Toward
Meeting Needs
By Associated Press
Washington, Dee. 20. —Confidence
that the American people will in no
wise relax their efforts toward meet
ing the government's immediate
financial requirements was express
ed by Secretary Glass in a statement
last night partially outlining the
policy of the treasury under his ad
ministration. Plans for meeting gov- !
eminent expenditures as outlined
by former Secretary MeAdoo, includ
ing the offering of another Liberty
Loan, the continuing of the sale of
war saving certificates, and the re
taining of organizations for the sale
of such certificates, will be carried
out, he said.
Secretary Glass said another Lib- \
erty Loan must be issued before the |
end of the fiscal year next June, the
sake of war saving stamps and certi
ficates must be pushed most ener
getically, and the habits of (thrift
formed during the war must be con
tinued.

AT WAR'S CLOSE
Desperate Fighting Done by
Pennsylvaninns Pleases
Boys' Commander
_ That the Twenty-Eighth Division,
composed of Pennsylvania boys and
including many Harrlsburgcrs, won
its name of "The Iron Division," la
attested by the number of times it
was cited In official orders for the
bravery of Its officers and men.
Three times it was mentioned for
its gallantry in such decisive actions
as the offensives in the Valley of the
Aire and In the Argonne Forest, and
other hot engagements, where Amer
ican arms turned the tide of battle.
The 103 d Ammunition Train of the
division, came in for special mention
by Major General Muir.
Following are the various cita
tions:
Headquarters 28th Division
U. S. Army,
American Expeditionary Forces, 1
October 20, 1918.
From —Chief of Staff.
To—Colonel Edward S. Williams,
103 d Ammunition Train.
Subject—Commendation.
1. The division commander desires
to express to you, and through you
to the soldiers In your train, his ap
preciation of the work performed
during the recent offensive in the
valley of the Aire and the Argonne
Forest.
2. The rapidity of our advance, the
poor condition of many parts of the
roads and the congestion of the traf
fic, all added to the difficulty of de
livering munitions. That the supply
never failed was due to the devotion
of duty and the untiring effort of
you and your men. and Is doserving
of the highest commendation.
By command of t
Major General Muir,
W. C. SWEENEY,
Chief of Staff.
Headquarters 28th Division

General Orders,
No. 19.
France, October 21, 1918.
1. The division commander desires
to express his appreciation to all of
ficers and soldiers of the 28tli Di
vision and of attached units who, at
all times, during the udvance In the
Valley of the Aire and in the Ar
gonne Forest, in spite of many hard
ships and constant personal danger
gave their best efforts to further the
success of the division.
2. As a result of this operation,
which extended from 5.30 on the
morning of September 26, until the
night 8-9 October, with almost con
tinuous fighting, the enemy's line
vas forced back more than ten j
ilometers. In spite of most stub
orn and at times desperate resist-
ance. the enemy was driven out of
Grand Boureulllea, Petite Boureull
les, Varennes, Montblalnvllle, Apre
mont, Plelnchamp, Farm, La Forge
and Chatel Chehes-y, and the strong
holds on Hills 223, 244 and La
Chane Tondu, were captured In the
face of strong machine gun and
artillery fire.
3. The following letter regarding
this achievement is of interest to
all:
Advanced Headquarters,
First Army Corps,
i October &. 1918.
From—Commanding General, First
Army Corps, U. S.
To —Commanding General, 28th Di
vision.
Subject—Commendation.
I desire to express to the 28th Di
vision and Its commander, my appre
ciation of the splendid work done by
the division on October 1918.
The capture of Hill 224 and the
combined advance of the right and
left brigades about the fall of the
very strong position of the enemy on
the Chene Tondu and the Tnllle
I'abbo, demonstrate excellent leader
ship and first cluss fighting ability.
The advance In exploitation in
front of your right brigade, resulting
from the foregoing actions, was a
very bold procedure which will un
doubtedly lead to even greater re
sults.
H. LIGGETT,
Major General, U. S. A.
4. As a "new" division on the Ves
le, tho 28th was cited In orders from
general headquarters for Its excel
lent service, and the splendid work
Just completed assures it a place In
the very front ranks of the fighting
"red" divisions. With such a position
to maintain. It is expected that every
man will devote his best effort to the
work at hand —to hasten that final
victory, which Is now so near.

D. C. OVES TELLS OF
DEFEAT OF U-BOATS
[Continued from First Page.]
and the first to greet us on the other
side," said Private Oves to-day.
Ilns Thrilling Story
In speaking of his exciting ex
periences on. the high seas, Private
Oves told one of the most thrilling
stories that has hern giren out by
any local man in the service. He
left Boston July 31, and arrived in
Bristol, England, somewhat over
two weeks later. "After embarking
at Boston, we sailed for Halifax,
where we were joined by the balance
of the twe'efc'-eight transports ac
companied by a United States battle
cruiser," related Mr. Oves.
"Going over, about five days this
side of England, we were met by a
I convoy of twenty-two English and
United States submarine chasers.
Shortly after that, we ran into a
nest of submarines, two of which
were later sun. The first sub was
sunk by a depth bomb. A moment
after the bomb had been dropped I
saw a spectacular sight such as I
had never seen in my life! A jet
of water shot into the air like a
huge gyser, and later subsided.
"The first 'Tin Fish' had scarcelv
been done away with," continued
Mr. Oves, "before we had a real
thrill. The second sub appeared on
the surface between one of the,
transports and a battle cruiser. It!
was so close to the cruiser that the !
latter could not fire upon it, and j
must also have been too close for'
the sub to fire a torpedo. The tense j
situation was relieved by the rush of j
a sub chaser which made a dash fori
the "tin fish.' The chaser made ai
clean, job of it. ramming the sub in
such a way that it sank in a few
minutes."
Praise For Bed Cross
Mr. Oves also told of his experi
ences in camps In this country. After
enlistin gin December, 1917, he
went to the barracks at Columbus,
Ohio, where he was inducted into
foreign service. He first went to
Camp Grant, Northern Illinois, and!
later to Scottflcld, near St. I,ouls.
He was at Scottfleld until July 12,
1918, and during his stay there did!
plumbing work, ran a road roller,
and was made assistant fire chief
of the camp.
From Scottfleld Mr. Oves went to
Camp Mills, Long Island, and a few
days later left for Boston, from
which place he sailed for England. I
In. England he was located at I
various places. At Waddington, I
near Lincoln, he was put into an I
airplane i repair shop where he
learned sheet metal work. He .was
then sent to Wendover, where he
was taught copper work. Later,'
with the rest of his contingent, he i
was sent ot Liverpool, where he
embarked on the Maureatanla.
Speaking of the work of the Red !
Cross, which he praised highly.
Privates Oves said: "In England
the Bed Cross was In constant touch j
with us, offering to do our mend
ing. giving us clgarcts and tobacco,
and giving works of kindness and j
encouragement. They kept many
boys from becoming homesick." He
cited an example of the feeling of
ail soldiers of the Red Cross. "I
met an English soldier," said Private
Oves, "who was returning from
France to recuperate. He stopped
at Lincoln, and_had a magnificent
helmet taken by himself from the
cousin of the Crown Princ. whom;
he had captured. An American Y. j
M. Ci A, worker offered the Eng
lish soldier five pounds for his prize.!
But the Englishman refused stating!
that he Intended to present the hel-1
met to the Red Cross, as a slight j
tribute of his high appreciation for
its services to him In France."
Private also told of some of his
experiences in trips made in Eng
land in an airplane, He recounted
the sensations one goes through in
making flights, Even at ft height
of 2,500 feet, in a flight which he
took in England, he dcelared that
the only sensation of movement
which he experienced was through
the wind blowing against his face.
He described the feeling of exhller
atlon one experiences in a flight,
and the general appearance of the
country, the flat appearance of
everything below and the thread-like
roads.
