Lame Battalion
Is a New Scheme
(CorrtBpundenca of the AuMOclaced Fresc.)
Paris, Aug. 20.—"The awkward
squad" familiar at the beklnning of
all citizen armies, has now been sup-
planted by the "lame" battalion, de-
signed to re-establish the men who
have gone through the fire and to fit
them for future service.
So successful has the Idea of a
"lame" battalion been that fro 70 to
80 percent, of the soldiers receiving
wounds In the legs or suffering from
the usual foot and leg maladies of
trench warfare have been restored to
full combat strength.
The new course Involves instruc-
tions of the wounded and weakened
soldier, in the proper posture of the
body and its use in waking, running
and ridding. Special drills have been
devised to overcome the habits Into
which the invalided soldier has fall-
en. Instruction Is given In the care
of the feet while special attention has
been given to the foot and leg cases
In the hospitals.
Men with special troublesome feet,
weak backs, general bad posture or
lack of endurance are sent to the
special training battalion where the
fully erect alert position of the body
is emphasized. Four companies have
been established In the battalion, with
programs Increasingly difficult so that
the schedule of the fourth company
is only slightly below that required
for full combat fitness.
United States army medical efflcers
report that "experience has shown
that from one-third to one-half of the
ordinary deformities resulting from
gunshot wounds are preventable.
Surgenons must free themselves from
their tendency to treat the wounds and
forget the function; to make a well
man but not a working one."
Finland Helping Huns.
(Associated Press Dispatch.)
Amsterdam, Aug. 21. — Germany
has concluded a commercial agree-
ment with Finlan'l for six months,
tacitly renewable unless one party
gives notice of termination
Germany has already sent a small
quantity of potatoes and salt of which
there are none In Finland. Finland
will supply Germany with lumber,
cellulose, woodpulp, matches and part
with small, old stocks of oil fat and
rubber. Germany further expects to
export Iron, coal, benzine, chemicals,
medicines and dyes.
Finland, under the agreoment, may
sell to all neutrals and shl.i goods1
through German territory under a sys-
tem which guarantees that the goods
are only for the use of neutrals.

Beltoh, Aug. 21.—The following let-
ter has been received by Mrs. S. It.
Dunlap, of Little River, from her son,
George, W. Puniap, Sup. Co. 9th Inft.
American expeditionary forces. Puniap
was on the Tuscanta when it was tor-
pedoed and he made his landing In
Scotland.
Sunday morning, July 22, 1918.
Mrs. S. R. Puniap,
Dear Mama: Will try to write you
a few lines to let you know that I ain
well and doing fine, hope you are the
same way. Mama, I got thirty-eight
letters last Monday at one time; I
got a letter from nearly everybody 1
know, they sure did write me some
nice letters, I had twelve from you.
The letters were dated from Feb. 14,
to the first day of May, I don't know
why I haven't been getting them,
but I think I will get them all right
from now on. The last letters I ha\o
been getting, have been about twenty
days getting to me.
Tell the people of Little River, that
I think of them often, they surely
were nice to me, tell them to write to
mo. Mama, I wish you all could know
v.-hat I went through with on that
ship, I was sick with the mumps at
the time we wore shot, and you know
I had a time getting out, I was on a life
boat about eight hours. I lost my
watch In the water somewhere, but
sure was thankful that I got out my-
self, I think the Lord was with me.
I thought I would never see you any-
more, I thought of everything In the
world. Our life boat was the only
one that landed all the men safe, lt
sure was some dark night, the old
ship stayed afloat about three hours
before she went down, we lost every-
thing we had. When I got out I didn't
have on many clothes, and mama,
you don't have any idea how cold lt
was. When I got out I couldn't walk
a step, one of the boys took and put
his over coat about me, I thought I
was going to freeze to death, but I am
still living. When we landed we were
in Scotland, and I can't tell you how
nice thoso people were to us. We
stayed there three days, and then went
to England and stayed there about
six weeks. Most of the troops landed
In Ireland, but there were about 150
of us landed In Scotland. If I could
see you I could tell you more about lt.
I will tell you about It when I come
home."

Austrian Meetings
Favoring Entente
(Correspondence of Ilia Associated Press.)
Berne, July.—The words "Long
I.Ive Wilson," and "Long Live the
Entente," were written on the walls
of the meeting place of the congress
of oppressed nations which recently
met at Prague. Although the police
hastened to remove them, they re-
appeared as if by magic.
The extent to which the revolu-
tionary ferment has increused In Aus-
tria-Hungary Is shown by the text of
the resolutions adopted by the con-
gress, copies of which have been re-
ceived here. It Is In the form of a
proclamation and Is said to be (he
first Joint revolutionary proclamation
ever Issued in the dual monarchy.
It says In part:
"T h e assembled representatives
unanimously declare that a better fu-
ture for this nation Is to he founded
and durably assured on the firm
basis of world democracy, real and
sovereign government by the people,
and a universal alliance of nations
vosted with the authority of arbitra-
tion.
"They reject most emphatically all
treaties not sanctioned by the sover-
eign will of nations. They are con-
vinced that all peace for which they
and all democracies of the world are
longing, can be righteous and dur-
able only If the world puts an end to
the existing unbearable domination
of one nation over the other, and If
the world makes It possible for na-
tions to organize their relations to
each other on the basis of equal
rights and free conventions, In order
that they may defend themselves
against the evils of Imperialism.
"They are resolved to sacrifice
everything, convinced that these are
the nation's critical days: that they
are aiding civilization in the effort
to free humanity once and for all
from the everlasting international
violence and murder—as shown by
the experience of this unprecedented
war—and are helping toward the
new era of dependence on Interna-
tional law, the fraternity of nations,
equal rlghis, and human liberty."
The gathering was one of the most
notable In the history of Prague,
comprising large delegations from all
the oppressed elements within Aus-
tria-Hungary. The Slovaks of Hun-
gary sent a party of twenty-two with
the great Slovak poet Evlezdeslav.
The Polish delegation numbered
sixty, three from Silesia, one Irom
Prussian Poland, and the rest from
Gallcla, Including ex-Minister (llom-
btnskl and five deputies. The Croats
and Serbs numbered a hundred with
nine deputies. Among the J00 Jugo-
slavs were sixty Slovenes, seven
Corinthians, sixty Styrians and 100
Carnlolana with four deputies
The Italian delegation of seventeen
Included Deputy Concl, Irredentist
deputy in the Austrian parliament.
There were besides Roumanians from
Transylvania and the Ilukovlna. four
Dalmatian* and three Bosnians.
Among the tu table figures were
Tetniftler, dean of the socialists of
Poland, Rybar, ex-mayor of I^ibach,
and Krista chief of the democratic
party. It was a strange medley of
racial fractions, and only such a
gathering as could be found among
the oppressed elements crowded with-
in Austria-Hungary.
Practically nothing concerning the
gathering was allowed to appear In
the press, and the papers appeared
with great white columns disclosing
how the censors had suppressed all
references to the meeting. They an-
nounced, however, that thirty-five ar.
rests had been made; also that the
crowds had succeeded In breaking
the police cordons thrown around
the gathering, and the measures fin-
ally adopted to disperse the meeting.
A continuous struggle was carried on
between the population and the
police. Unknown hands decorated
the linden trees with emblems of
Slav fraternity.

(Associated I'reaa Dtapnlcli.)
London, Aug. 21.—A group o(
American soldiers ealled out the flr«
department of the borough ol West-
minister the other day under the mis-
taken notion that the House of Coni«
mons was on fire.
The soldiers, sightseeing in the
neighborhood of the houses of par-
liament, were startled by the sight ot
smoke emerging from the clock tower,
Just underneath the face ol Big Bell.
One of lliem promptly sent In a tele-
phone call for the firemen.
The cause of the commotion, It
seems, was simple. A fire Is kept
burning In the base of the tower to
maintain an even temperature in the
works of the clock.
