WAR ACTIVITIES OF
U.S. M N IN FRANCE
AIM INGLY EFFICIENT
LONDON, April 19 — (Correspondence of The Ass
ociated Press) “Ten weeks spent in the war zone con
vinces me that the morale and morals of the American
soldiers in France are in full accord with the finest tradi
tions of American arms and a credit to the social and
religious standards of American society”, said Dr. A.
Poling of Boston, Associate President of the United
Society of Christian Endeavor, in an interview with the
If
Associated Press on his arrival in London on his way to
America.
“My investigations”, he said, “carried me into every
American landing port in France; ipto rest camps and
training camps, and for ten days I was practially in our
front line, including two nights and three days in a front
line dugout. I was right with our men all the time, I
messed with them, slept with them and experienced two
barrages with them.
“My whole experience convinced me that the admin
istration of our war activities in France is amazingly
efficient. Our railroads, our camps, our food, our water
supply, and our rapidly increasing military. equipment
are miracles of swift and through achievement.
“In the business of keeping our soldiers physically
and morally fit, the program of our military authorities
is the most comprehensive and aggressive ever laid out
by a nation at war. The stories of wholesale drunkeness
and vice circulated in some quarters at home concerning
the American Expeditionary Forces were false. While
some men and groups of men have commited grave ex
cesses and shamed their uniforms, the small number of
those in proportion to the total number under arms is a
source of gratification and pride to every citizen who be
lives in the moral soundness of American society. My
own investigations substantiate the figures already made
public by the Army Medical Department, which prove that
the American soldiers in France is living on a higher mor
al plane than the moral plane of American civilian life.
General Pershing and his associates deserve not a resol
ution of inquiry and censure but a vote of confidence and
the assurance of the nation’s wholehearted cooperation
and support.
“The work if the Young Men’s Christian Association
m the American army zone cannot fail to receive the en
thusiastic commendation of every visitor. The organiza
tion’s many-sided work it the mightiest constructive agen
cy of its kind in Europe.
AMERICAN SOLDIERS IN FRANCE ARE j
COVERING THEMSELVES WITH GLORY;
HERO CORPRAL DIES GIVING ORDERS
WITH THE AMERICANS IN FRANCE, April 10
— The commanders of the United States forces, who
participated in several day’s fighting last week with the
French in Apremont Wood’s sector, are finding it diffi
cult to pick men who especially distinguished themselves.
One connpander said every man acted like a hero and he
would be forced to designate his entire command for
valiant service.
A pathetic story of a young corporal, hit in the head
by shrapnel, is related. The corpral, at the time of being
wounded, had a grenade in each hand. He gave these to 1
his companions and said: “I guess I am done. Write
Mother. Take these grenades. Don’t waste them.”
He fell in a faint and died in the hospital the next day.
