ALASKA AWARDED WAR
! TROPHY FOR PATRIOTIC WORK
v , --
(Juneau Empire) - 1
The German war trophy— the 77m.
mi gun— which was awarded the ter
ritory in connection with the Victory
| issue of Liberty Bonds, is one of six
j captured by the 11th infantry, fifth I
division, U. S. regulars in the Dun* j
Murveaux action of the Meuse-Argon- j
ne offensive shortly before the sign
ing of the armistice, according to ad
vices received by Gov. Thomas Riggs.
The cannon is displayed on the
grounds near the governor’s office.
A letter just received from Maj.
Gen. C. C. Williams, chief of ordinance
gives the history of the trophy as fol
lows:
“Gun No. 3882 was one of the first
I shipped to Mehun ordnance shops in
France by ordnance Representatives in
|?
the field. It was captured by the
11th infantry, fifth division, regular
army, in the Dun-Murveaux action of
the Meuse-Agonne offensive. Col. It. G.
Peck was in command of the regi
! ment and the gun was captured near
La Maisonette farm.
I i
“The capture of such places as Liny,
Devant, Dun, Fontaine and Murveaux
by the American army laid the Ger
man railroad lines open to American .
artilery fire and not only cut into the
supplies being shipped to the left of
the German lines but endangered the
German armie^ holding lower Alsace.
“Too much credit cannot be given
to the 11th infantry of the regular
fifth division, who from November 6
to November 8, took besides numerous
prisoners, six pieces of artillery, three
anti tank rifles, 150 machine guns, and
vast quantities of ammunition and
supplies. This gun is one of the six
captured.
ROY FAIRBANKS SELLS OUT
Roy Fairbanks, the haberdasher,
i\: .posed of his stock of merchan
dise to D. L. McGinnis, who took pos
session this morning. Roy is now
free to visit with his friends before
.cav.ng for the states for an extended
cisit. Later he expects to make tlv«
Ir.p through the Panama canal and
risit other southern countries. Mr.
Fairbanks has made a distinct success
of his business here and has played
his part in civic affairs. The Fair
oanks corner is an ideal business lo
cation and Mr. Fairbanks has given a
ease for three years, which fact sig
nifies that he eventually expects to
\
return to Anchorage.
Speaking of his business career here
this morning to a Times representa
tive Mr. Fairbanks stated that he laid
his success to the laboring man’s
trade. It is true that he catered to
this class of trade and his far-sighted
policy of dealing honorably and gen
erously with labor undoubtedly added
materially to his success.
Anchorage business circles will miss
Mr. Fairbanks, as well as a large num
ber of friends, who rejoice in his suc
cess but regret his departure from
Anchorage..
