Washington, April 22.--General Pe*^ Shine's report of the gallant conduct of American engineer troops with the British fifth army in helping check the German advance in the early days of the great offensive reached the war de­ partment and was made public by Sec­ retary Baker. *It will make splendid reading ft* Americans," said the secretary. General Pershing's report says: : fin reference t% mention in summary if activities, noon March 24 to March 26, of American troops fighting with British armies and to the daily cabled summary of the battle, March 29,1918, the following has now been established from official reports: "The commanding officer of a United States engineers' regiment has re­ ceived a copy at the following letter commending the action of the troops of his regiment: " 'I have received the following t "Oiu {fete commanding general corps: *"I desire to convey to you and ranks nnder your orders my admira­ tion of the splendid service which you and they have rendered In connection with corps light railroad. Thanks to the untiring energy of officers, non­ commissioned officers and men, who have risen to the occasion in a man­ ner beyond all praise, and their gal lantry, much of what might otherwise liave fallen into the enemy's hands, lias been saved. " 1 should like to add my own ap' preciatlon of the excellent services ren­ dered by the officers, noncommissioned officers and men of the light railroad service of this army directorate in con­ nection with the present operation. Will you be good enough to acquaint all ranks serving nnder you of the ap­ preciation accdtded to their untiring service ?' "Certain units of United States en- gineers, serving with a British army between Maroji 21 and April 3, while under shell fire, carried out destruction of material dumps at Chaulnes, fell back with British forces to Moreull, where the commands laid out trench wort:, then proceeded to Demuin and were assigned sector of defensive line, which* was constructed and manned by them, thence moved to a position in the line near Warfusee-Abancourt and extending to the north side of Bols de Aiiiauw.

MESSAGE FROM TRENCHES -Wo Will OC tsar Pirt; YOU Do Yours," Is Message From Ameri­ can Soldiers in France to . the American Peopli, v. Washington, April UB.--"We will do our part; you do yours," is the mes­ sage from the American army in France to the American people that Secretary Baker delivered here on Saturday at a Liberty loan rally in his first public address since his re­ turn from Europe. "We are fighting an adversary,"' Mr. Baker, declared, "who has elected to make force the center of his political philosophy and belief--pure, naked force. "It Is not the doctrine upon which a permanent and beautiful civilization can be built, but we accept that chal­ lenge as It has been made. There is no answer except cold, relentless, ade­ quate force." A tremendous crowd that packed Liberty Hut, the great Y. M. C. A. building, to its capacity roared with applause as the war secretary reiter­ ated the purpose of America and the allies. "When force Is divorced from mor­ ality," he continued, "there is some­ thing in morality that engenders the force to overcome it. "There is no doubt as to the out­ come." Turning to the German drive Mr. Baker said the people watched the bulletins from day to day and hour to hour, always with the question in their hearts, "Will the line hold?" "The end of that war will not come when a line is broken. This war can­ not end until a people's heart is broken, and those who have looked Into the faces of the people of Eng­ land, of FrancO-«i' of Italy, who have looked into the faces of those refugees leaving territory to be occupied, know that mere force can never break that heart" Again the great crowd roared its appreciation. Mr. Baker spoke briefly of the events of his trip along the Ameri­ can lines in France. He pictured for his hearers the greatness of the task the country faces in setting up a new army there, 3,000 miles from home, and paid high tribute to General Per­ shing and his oncers for the work they have done. % • The aid of France and England and Italy had been generous, he said. All allied and American men and re­ sources hnd been pooled until they were merged in one great identity. All the nations had lost their sense of distinction between "what is theirs and what is ours." The common purpose of all to beat back and crush German force, he said, had welded all Into one. Going from the ports where Ameri­ can troops land to the front line trenches, Mr. Baker said, he had seen American soldiers by the tens of thousands and under every condi­ tion. "And I found them big and strong and brave and filled wtth fine deter­ mination," he said. "In all that time I saw not one of whom I was not proud that he was an American." "We must put our hands on the shoulders of those boys in the trenches," Mr. Baker declared. 'They hear what goes in America. They hear what we are talking about. They learn whether our hearts are as stout as theirs. "When an opportunity comes for America to express her spirit, as she always has in this war, they hear it, and it Is a hand on their shoulders on the dark and moonless nights, saying Hold 'em!'"

' 'iL'--' ---- . t »y GEORGE E. BOWEN : V of the Vigilantes. In the main, it cannot be said of America that, she is without her Amer­ icans, or that the faith and service of the mass is un-American in spirit. Dollars do not always go with de­ mocracy, but when informed, inspired and enlisted they can be mighty useful to it There has been a "mistaken idea in certain sections of America that dol­ lars, according to the number of them, spelled "aristocracy." They don't. That is an imported idea. And that it is perishing in the land of its origin, witness the war and the consternation of the few aristo­ crats, both external and inbred. There have been, possibly are, a few external aristocrats in America, who, in a moment of excessive vanity measured their social importance by the size of their material fortunes. The war erased that absurd notion, almost with the first blare of the trumpet. Millionaire Privates In Ranks. There are millionaire privates in the ranks of the American army and navy who have renounced all the prestige of fortune for the prvllege of comrade­ ship. In the crucial test humanity was first, last, and all the way between. Men are more than money. The outer •eneer has been quickly shed. The man has emerged. What he thought was his pride, in days of social and financial triumph, he finds was but a cheap and trivial plaything. Now, his real pride is a thing of purpose, power and dignity. Before the war is over, dollars that hid In aristocratic seclusion or vaunt­ ed themselves in ostentatious power are going voluntarily and humbly to join the forces of democracy. After the war they are going to de­ velop a system of popular redistribu­ tion relieving the old congestion whose fevers broke, out in many forms of lux­ ury and extravagance incompatible with universal contentment. The only aristocracy America wants or needs is of the heart and of the mind. The shoulder touch of men on the march or in the trenches has welded' this feeling into a living creed, a sav­ ing faith. The escutcheon of American man­ hood may be either a splash of Bel­ gian mud or a splotch of German blood. Drawing True Men Together. In place Of the dollar crest will be the sign of the courage test. There was a lot of sound democracy In the old ultimatum--"millions for de­ fense, but not one cent for tribute." Therein is the basic principle of re­ sistance of Prussianlsm. That prin­ ciple is drawing all true men together. It is putting service above self. It is asking America to take the gold of vanity and pour it Into the cause of humanity. The spirit of democracy , is the only vital, uncompromising thing in a hu­ man world. It laughs at dollars and dynamite and royal degenerates. The America annointed of this spirit is at last to carry it forth to a perish­ ing world. • And the despised American dollar shall, with the courage, generosity and chivalry of American manhood, be the Instrument of salvation. The day of contribution is at hand. Where is your dollar?
