It is interesting to go in these woods and see how the Vankee and our Allied Airplane taen found them camouflaged and ehelled them out, you can tee where they tried to save these hig gunsl and how they were chased away and even followed up in their frenzied run towards Berlin. The shell holes show very plainly after they left the guns in the wood and how they ran up through the f elds and on to the main roads, and how the Airplanes followed them up, and of course in lots of cases the Artillery show their work, but the airplane work easily tells they were cn the job, because the shfll holes from them are deeper and are al ways dropped in a uniform manner, that is they always seem to drop one after the other so many feet fcpart, the artillery drop them in a hap-hazard fashion. The Belgiums are a very good hunch to us, that is they show gratitude in a great many ways, still we have a hard time really in a thousand ways, we have many goat-getting affairs, and the consequences are all the Yanks are thoroughly well filled up on this business and are more than willing to get back to the dear U. S. They have a raft of soldier plays and play ers going around to entertain us lonesome fellows and they are most ly minstrel shows, which allows them to pull off jokes which all tell the fi.rne story, of how they would like to get out of here and of how their treatment doesn't suit all the way round, we get soaked right and left, it is a good thing we have a litt'e increase- of pay. if we didn't I di a't know whether you could make the soldiers stay over here. One outfit here has signs all along the road marked "We want to go home". They are Coons though, we haven't that much nerve. The hoys can't tniite Ft e ihe idea now that the war is over why they are over here building roads, and several other i:ch inviting Jobh, but of course un til the ocace terms are signed, and we feel that the bughouse Germans will live up to the terms, we will have Jo stay over here, happy must be the hunch who have gone through this affair and are now home. I know we have their sym pathy from the bottom of their hearts. They understand why we iou't want to stay here, and there is so ninny reasons that we can't tell n a letter.

May S. l'rc.-id.-nt "Wilson's diplomacy at the ' l'aris peace conference has become the main theme of discussion in the cap ital as the result of the Italian and Chino-Japanese incidents and is destined to he more thoroughly air ed as soon as congress asser.ibli-s. On the one hand, administration sen ators contend that the president's chief aim is the establishment of the league of nations on so firm a found ation that it can deal effectively with auy injustice arising from the territorial dispositions or the peace conference. Only time will reveal the errors of the peacemakt-rs, it is argued, and only a league of nations can correct them. To attain this supreme end. it is asserted, the prit-i-dent is playing an intricate game of diplomacy, acting aggressively in one instance and yielding in anoth er, with apparent inconsistency but always in the interest of his main purpose. On the other hand, many critics of the president view him as the cats-paw of Kngland and France in the Italian episode and as the vic tim of Kngland and France in the cae of 'Japanese claims. They do not doubt that I.loyd (Ii-orge and Clemfiiceau were opposed not only to giving to Italy Fiume, which was not included in the secret treaty of 191.".. but to giving to Italy Iil matia, which was included. Had they been willing to stand on the secret treaty they could have said so and controlled the situation, as they did when the Japanese claims camo up. But they remained ilrnt and Mr. Wilson came forward to de nounce the whole Ferret treaty with Italy. In the Japanese affair the presi dent found himself deserted by Lloyd-CIeorge ami Cliinenciau, who dictated the surrender to Japanese, and Mr. Wilson did not denounce the secret treaty of 1017 between Japanese anil Kngland and France.
