PERSHING'S
TROOPS GOING i
INTO ACTION
JULES AND MILES OF SAMMIES
3I0VLNG TO HELP FRENCH
AND BRITISH TIGHT
SOOH WILL BE IN THE FIGHT
Going in Motor Truck Trains and
on Foot Infantry in Mud
to Knees of Men
Paris, March 31. "The French
government has decided to accede to
the desire expressed by General Per
fhins. iiN the name of the United
States government" says an official
note issued today dealing with the
operation of American troops with
the French and British.
"The American troops .will fight
tid? by side with the British and
French troops, and the Star Span
sled Banner will float beside the
French and English flags on the
plains of Picartly."
With the American Army in
France. March 31. All the Ameri
can troops have been turned over to
the allies.
American troops will soon be
fishting side by side with the French
and British iu the battle raging in
northern France.
Croat activity of many sorts is
under way in the whole American
zone.
Trains of molor trucks miles Ion?,
loaded with Americans, are passing
through the towns. On other roads,
mile after mile of marching Ameri
cans are on the move.
Some of the motor trucks are go
ing in one direction, some in anoth
er. Through a driving rain the mo
tor trucks plowed their way along
ir.iuldy roads, the Americans sing
in?. Many of the trucks had the
American flag fastened to their tail
boards. The infantry splashed through
the mud, which came over their an
gles. More than 100,000 Americans, ia
tensively trained and fully accoutred
nre available for immediate use in
Menuuiug the tide of the German
hordes.
Great activity continued Sunday
throughout the zone where the
American troops are quartered.
Sing on Way to Battle
It began at 4 o'clock this morn-
irg when heavily loaded motor cam
ions began rumbling through the
streets and over the roads, which
by noon were crowded with camions,
both motor and horse-drawn, ma
chine guns, men, horses and artil
lery. As oil Saturday, there was a great
li.tiveiuent of troops. The Americans
j: losing were cheered by others who
tooil along the roads watching the
virtually endless procession.
Out on the open roads the. men in
the camions sang everything from
the Battle Hymn of the Republic to
Tipperary. They exhibited the
greatest enthusiasm for the work
they have in hand and seemed to be
anxious to get it started.
Frequently during the day heavy
motor trucks skidded from the mud
dy roads into ditches, . but they
were quickly and literally picked up
by as many Americans as could get
a band on them, set back on the road
and started again toward their des
tination. A little thing like lifting
ll,e end of a five-ton truck from a
liiieli means nothing to Americans
v. no ;tc in a hurry to get into the
Jlevs Thrill the United States
Washington, March 31 The fore
go; ag announcement that Ameri
can soldiers actually are on their
vay to the fighting lines to take
places beside their hard pressed
British and French allies sent a
thrill through the national capital.
It was the first positive statement
that General Pershing's forces ac
tually re on their way to the bat
tle lines to help stem the tide of ihe
German drive.
The American, soldiers previously
referred to in the" official dispatches
as being in the fighting are believed
to have been engineers or othr aux
iliary troops which probably were
caught at their work as they were
: few months ago at Cambral, when
the Germans suddenly enveloped
parties of British forces behind their
lines in a swift f-irring movement.
1C0.000 Amnions Available. .
'; : .- e nding of General Berthing's
fgl-.t troops to places 0:1 the Brit
i i: ch line has been expected
1 military experts to follow ' the
creation of a united command under
the French chief of staff. General
Foch, and General Pershing's for
mal offer of all the available Amer
ican resources. . ...
TbcfJi&ijQji may not be said about
the number and position of the
American troops, because of military
reasons.
It is no violation of the censor
ship, however, to -say that more than
100,000 American fighting men, ful
ly equipped and intensely trained
in the school of actual battle condi
tions are available at once to be
thrown into places to strengthen the
British and French lines wherever
they threaten to buckle under the
unheard of ferocity of the German
onslaught.
It is also no violation of censor
ship to say that the American gov
ernment fully realizes that the sec
ond battle of the Somme may con
tinue for some time and that Amer
ican forces possibly might be the
means of tipping the scale.

hauling sand for the paving, driving
a team for M. E. Manspeaker, O. L.
York, had the misfortune to; get the
great finger of his left hand badly

From Monday's Daily.
At the adding contest which was

FORTY YEARS WITH THE "Q"

Just after the civil war had started,
and lived there until he was fourteen
years of age, when be came to Platts
mouth, here he went to school,, un
til he was near eighteen years . of
age. In the early spring of 1879,
March 29th, he entered the Burling
ton shops as an apprentice painter,
and soon with rapid strides, made his
way to the top of the profession, and
with -last Thursday completed just
forty years of service with the coun

place, doing none but the best of

BULLETIN NO. 24.
To All County Federal Food Admin
istrators, Gentlemen:
V . Requisitioning Wheat.
I just received an important tele
gram from Mr. Hoover this morning
as follows:
"There are some known pro-German
farmers hoarding their wheat
out of a desire to obstruct the gov
ernment. I think it desirable, wher
ever possible, to make an example of
these cases by direct action. Wher
ever you can yourself, or through
your County Administrators, learn of
such instances direct a letter in
structing such, offending parties to
bring their grain to the nearest ele
vator within a certain short period.
If they fail to respond, you will re
quisition the wheat. Where requisi
tioning is done, do so on price basis
of local elvator, less enough to pay
necessary charges for transportation
from farm to elevator x x x x x It is
our impression that you will not have
to requisition very often, but will
get sufficient response from direct
order to bring grain in. Hoover."
Will you advise us of any farmers
wilfully and maliciously holding a
material excess of wheat, that we
may deal with them direct from this
office? It is important in' reporting
these cases that you have absolute
facts, giving the amount of wheat,
name of party, address and attend
ant circumstances." We cannot act
upon rumors and must avoid error.
If the quantity of excess wheat is
very small, requisition will not be
resorted to. We are inclined to feel
that the appeal to market wheat, to
gether with the conferred power, in
case a party wilfully obstructs the
Government program by withholding
wheat, will bring in virtually all of
the surplus. wheat held in Nebraska.
Please advise us in detail of any cases
where you have complete facts.
Amended Bakintr Rules.
After April 14th. all bakers baking
"Victory" bread will be required to
increase the amount of substitutes
therein from 20 per cent to twenty
five per cent.
Amended Hotel and
Restaurant Reflation
Pubic eating places and clubs are
to observe Wheat !or-s Days and Meals
as at present.. In addition thereto
they must net serv? tc any one guest
at any one m?al an aggregate of
breadstuffs, macaroni, crackers, pas
try, pies, cake; or v.v.eat breakfast
cereals containing a quantity of
smore than two ounces of , wheat
flour. . No . wheat products to be
served unless specially ordered. Pub
lie eating eiablishinents not to buy
more than six pounds of whea pro
ducts for each r.;nc:y meats served,.
thus conforming with the limita
tions requested of householders.
Lamb On Meatless DaTs.
It is announced that lamb will not
be restored to Meatless Days until
after present feeding season and only
then if Allied necessities for meat
entirely outrun our export surplus.
Very truly yours,
GURDOX W. WATTLES,
Federal Food Administrator for Neb

EMERSON BANKER
IS GIVEN GOAT OF
TAP, AND FEATHERS
REFUSES TO SIGN CHECK FOR
. CROSS AID AFTER SCORING
WORK OF THIS ORGANI
ZATION. Lincoln, Neb., April 1. Rudolph
Schopke, Emerson," Neb., hanker, was
tarred and feathered and driven
through the streets of the town be
cause of alleged pro-German sym
pathies, according to information
reaching Lincoln today.
It.ialleged that he told Red Cross
workers he owed the United States
nothing and that they could go to
hell as far as he was concerned.
Schopke is said to he worth more
than a half million dollars, but "sev
eral weeks ago declined to buy a
"Red Cross goat" for $15.
When Schopke refused to sign a
check for 5500 for war work, which
was demanded by an angry mob of
citizens Saturday evening, he was es
corted to the edge of town and the
coat of tar and feathers applied, it is
reported. :
Schopke located at Emerson 35
years ago and had just half a dollar
in his pocket, it is said. He is said
to be an alien enemy.
The incident was related to the
State Council of Defense bv a citizen
of Emerson.
WILL HOLD ENTERTAIN
MENT FOR RED CROSS
from Monday's Jailv.
The Louisville schools will on the
fifth of this month, next Friday even
ing at the city schools of that place
give.an entertainment for the bone
fit of the Junior Red Cross, at which
they will make a charge of fifteen
cents for children and twenty-five
cents for ' adults.' The entertain
ment will consist of a play, by the
members of the school and teachers,
while there will be in addition on the
program, a number of readings, and
music, by the scholars.
The matter of the entertainment
is in the hands of the teachers of the
schools, who are Jlises Hazel Tulene,
Rachel Standcr, Mary McGce, Mar
garet Tinimcs, Georgia Davis, Mrs.
Karl Mayfield, May Loan and Lota
Lair.
THE NEW TIME
From Monday's lai!y.
In accordance with pre-arranged
plans, nil business, social and other
activity is now being governed by
the new "daylight -saving" schedule
of time, which brings us to arising,
eating our meals, going to work and
quitting work one hour earlier, al
though the hands on the clocks will
continue to designate the same hours
as in the past. The probable largest
singe thing attained by the change
is an additional hour of daylight
gained, and it. is believed this time
will lie used profitably by everyone.
to the end of cultivating gardens or
engaging in otherwisely useful vca
tions. The new schedule came into
existence early Sunday morning.
without any hitches whatever and
already things are settled down to
running just like clockwork. Ex
pressions of approval of the change
are evident on nearly every hand.
although now and, then tme does find
a man or woman who disapprove of
the elTort .being .made to conserve
in this time of shortage when our
nation faces a peril.'. -
One man said it is as easy to con
form to the new schedule as the old,
and he hoped it would become a
yearly affair through the summer
months.

Frm Monday's Daily.
The hunters of this city and vicin
ity, have been ldofcJng'WithT longing;
eyes over the river every nice! morn
ing and especially on Sunday morn
ings when they could get away. They
have been thinking how they would
like to get out and see how the fes
tive duck would get away if he
could, but have been deterred from,
entering into the .'sport. I Yesterday
a deputy game warden arrived here
and dressing as a hunter mingled
with the reeds and rushes, finding 2
young men Will and Jess Basfius oil
the river, and stayed around appar
ently waiting for a shot", until he" had
gotten the evidence, and then made
himself known and notified them to
appear at 'the office of the county
judge this morning. ; ' He asked for
their license and on being informed
they had none, he had them arrest
ed, andUhis morning were assessed
twenty dollars and eighty cents each.
They had shot 3 ducks. This made
the fowls cost pretty high. This fine
was only by the state, the evidence
being kept .for the government, "
