Then he had practically the entire personnel of the old Sixth and Eighteenth Regiments, National Guard of Pennsylvania. There were some 1,500 in the original quota of the units that returned yesterday. But in the ranks yester day in these units there were only 116 men from the Sixth and 140 men from 'the' Eighteenth. And here are the official casualty figures of the First Battalion alone: Officers killed, twenty. Officers wounded, thirty-three. Officers missing, none. Men killed, 496. Men wounded, 2,07 7. Men missing, 482. It was no wonder that "Old Two Yards" was proud. And here is what .he said about them: "They are the finest lot of two fisted fighting men in the world. The whole Pennsylvania National Guard was that and more, but nty men were the best. "I would lead those men to the end of the world and consider my self privileged. Harrisburgor Decorated The 11th Infantry lost 33 per cent, of its strength killed in action and more than SO per cent, were wounded. In spite of rex>lacements the regiment returned with only two thirds of its original number. Among those who won decorations were Pri vate Wilson H. Leiter, of Harris ,burg, and Private tester Carson, of Clearfield, Pa.

The Champagne-Marne defensive, July 1 to 18. The Aisne-Marne offensive, July 18 to August 0. The FismeS offensive, August 7 to September 3. The Oise-Aisne offensive, Sep tember 4 to 7.

City and Muburba* town delivery WILL RESTORE CABLES SOON Burleson Recommends They Be Returned to Owners Next Month i Washington, April 29. —The Gov ernment is preparing to relinquish control next month erf American cable lines and to restore the tele graph and telephone systems to pri vate ownership immediately after enactment by Congress of laws nec essity to safeguard the properties. Postmaster General Burleson, as directing head of the service taken ovei as a war measure, announced yesterday he had sent to President Wilson a recommendation that the cables bo turned back forthwith, probably not later than May 10. An hour later the postmaster general gave out a statement saying he would recommend that the telegraph and telephone service be returned to private owners, contingent, how over, upon financial protection to be obtained from Congress. It was explained by Mr. Burleson that no legislation was necessary in the case of the cable company prop c rties. lessening of the traffic borne by the cables and other circum stances arising frSln transition to a peace basis, Mr. Burleson said, had resulted in his recommendation to the President that the lines be no longer operated by the Government. In the matter of land service, however, the solution of the problem will be put squarely up to Con gress. Coming so soon after the recommendation in his annual report that the telephone and telegraph lines become Government owner at the conclusion of peace, the post master general's statement, created unusua! interest in some quarters. Post Office Department officials who have aided in control of the telegraph and telephone companies expressed the belief that few of the companies could weather the flnan c.al storm if the properties were turned back* without remedial legis lation. Some officials said that while tlie properties must be returned in the same physical condition in which they were taken over, to do this now, without added revenue to meet wage demands and increased cost of oper ation, would wreck the entire in dustry. 17,000 MILLION' OVEIt NIGHT New York, April 29. —Victory loan subscriptions in the New York dis trict gained $17,829,600 over nighl, the official total up to 10 a. m. to day being $219,199,450 with the loan campaign now in its second week, subscriptions must come in at a far more rapid rate to attain the district quota of $1,350,000,000 before the close. fIHBBER STAMflfl mi SEALS A STENCILS 111 ft V MFCJtfHM.
