HEADQUARTERS 27TH DIVISION,
A. E. F.. Jan. 7. (MaiL) When the
27th Division marched through Plcardy.
through territory hideously scarred by
the German advance and up to the
Jumping-off place from which New
Tork'a boys were to begin their chase
Into the concrete defenses which com
prised the Hindenburg line, few men
were left behind.
There was need for every available
jnan In the push. Every fellow who
could carry a rifle was sent into the
fray. Anticipating resistance far more
stiff than was actually put up, Major
General O'Ryan, commanding the divi
sion, called for the services of every
man who was not sorely needed.
Among the few who were compelled
to remain behind to care for the
wounded were Lieutenant William A.
Halloran. Jr., director of the divisional
theatrical troupe, in charge of stretcher
bearers and first aid men working out
of casualty clearing stations, and Pri
vate Harry Gribble, also, of the theat
rical troupe. The other members of
the troupe were put on stretchers and
sent forward to bring in the wounded.
Two Men Disappointed.
The Lieutenant and Gribble were
somewhat disgruntled and unhappy be
cause they were unable to get Into the
fighting. They wanted an opportunity
to give the foe an idea of their con
tempt for him. The Lieutenant is a
machine-gun officer and Gribble is a
doughboy a scrapper. So to be left
behind during the big stunt the big
gest in which the division participated
was a bitter blow.
There were hours between battles
when these men had little in the line
of military duty to do. There were
times when they could rest, and. If they
so desired, listen to the parking guns
and Imagine what was going on three
or four miles in advance of where they
were. But Lieutenant Halloran and
Gribble had other things to think
about. They had other uses for their
imaginations. They were writing a big
musical production to give to New
York upon the return of the division
to America.
It didn't take long for the 27th and
30th divisions to push the Boche far
beyond the St. Quentin Canal.
Tiny Factory Portable.
At Eellicourt, where some of the
heaviest fighting took place, and
where the canal enters the dismal tun
nel which curves through the hill over
which the Yanks fought so gallantly,
were numerous small pockets in which
first the Germans and later the 27th
boys lived between battles. As the
doughboys and artillery advanced, the
Lieutenant and his first aid men moved
forward.
Into one of those dank, dark pockets
moved the Lieutenant and Gribble with
their pocket typewriter and their shell
bandages, copy paper and imaginations.
The foe, of course, had the exact range
on the canal, and frequently some of
his high explosives would tear down
into the water. And not infrequently
a shell would drop uncomfortably near
the crude play factory. And at night
German airmen would come over to
pay their respects to the men who hap
pened to be behind the push. So there
were sufficient excitement and noise
for all concerned.
Bit by bit the first act had been
pieced together. The writers had con
ceived and written the first part of
the book when the division was yet in
Newport News, awaiting orders to em
bark for France. And between stunts
in the lines in France they had woven
the remainder of the act. They were
satisfied, then, that they could leave
the first act and buld a second half to
the production.
Comedy Under Difficulties.
They turned to that task in the
cramped underground quarters in the
canal when their military work slack
ened. By candlelight they pounded
their machine, grinding out the
laughs and complications which made
the work good enough to present to
the musical comedy lovers of their
home land. It was a struggle to com
pose a show devoid of war under such
confUions.
That was one side to the experiences
of Lieutenant Halloran and Private
Gribble. And before the Hindenburg
line was smashed before the 27th
came out of the lines from that "do"
those authors had completed the big
act of "Let's Beat It," as the show will
be called.
When the rest period came back In
Corbie, one of the few remaining
towns near Amiens, the gunners curled'
up for a long sleep and the doughboys
started to talk about how much pret
tier American girls are than French
girls.
And while the rest of the world cele
brated. Lieutenant Halloran and Grib
ble polished off their play, gathered to
gether 60 fellows who had come
through the big push and who had,
prior to the war, worked behind the
footlights, and rehearsals began. Since
November 11 the boys have been much
on the job. Chorus girls who a few
weeks ago were knocking the "Gott
Mitt Uns" buckles off the belts of Ger
man soldiers have been prancing like
a bevy of Rialto flappers, according to
instructions laid down by Private Will
iam C. Pauly. That ex-doughboy is
training a chorus that is going to tor
ment many a Broadway producer.
Music Is Being; Arranged.
And Arthur Hauser, having got his
quota of Boches, is arranging the 20
musical numbers. He is in Montfort. a

now an electric piano, which no one
doubts has been there since the town
was founded, and a piano which the
division show troupe brought in. Upon
the latter Hauser is doing his work.
He is musical director of the produc
tion. Out of the lines came a man. a fin
ished actor, of whom the division knew
nothing so long as the war was in
progress. Private Robert Newman re
mained in the thick of it so long as
there was a thick to It. then he re
ported for a part in "Let's Beat It."
His acting astounded Gribble, who is
staging the show.
"He's a find," Gribble told the Lieu
tenant. All the boys who carried the divi
sional show, "You Know Me, AV to

to the departure of the division for
France will appear in the new show,
which will be produced shortly after
the division's return to the States.

male impersonators, are cast for prin
cipal roles. Jimmy Fallon, known to

Privates Jack Mahoney and Howard

respectively, say and do things con
tinuously throughout the show that are

can't withstand a good roar.
Private Arnold Jarret will play a
part as the first street cleaner for a

the "cuties" sit on the beach and stare
and forget all about bathing. Jack

York's girls have not ceased to for

and Eric Kreb.

LEAGUE'S POWER IS LESS
Omission of Compulsory Arbitration
Raises Obstacle to Perfect
Working Organization,
BT HERBERT BATARD SWOPE.
(Copyright 1919. by the New York World.
Published by Arrangement.)
PARIS, Feb. 6. (Special.) It may
bea aid authoritatively that the fea
ture of compulsory arbitration as an
active principle in the constitution of
the leacrue of nations has been elimi
nated. Expedients looking: to the same
end are in course of development, lt is
true, and they probably will be embod
ied in the plan of operations, but at
best they are substitutes, and cannot
by any stretch of construction bring;
about universal recognition of the final
jurisdiction which the leagrue should
have If its character as a supreme
tribunal is to be maintained.
Exclusion of this Important feature
from tho rules of the international
body Is due to unwillingness and the In
ability of several of the Individual na
tions to yield their Independent sover
eignty and to accept processes other
than their own.
Step Ahead Takes.
It cannot be denied that the omission
raises a serious obstacle to the achieve
ment of a perfect working- oraaniza
tlon. On the other hand lt must be
said that even without the rule for
compulsory arbitration the creation of
the league is a long: step beyond any
the world has ever taken to preserve
universal peace.
Lacking- the mechanical means of
compulsion, which had been proposed
throug-h the supreme court of ludg
ment, the leagrue will hope to grain simi
lar results by the force of public opin
ion, or. as President Wilson said in
England, "by organizing the moral
forces of the world," which shall be
used to bridgre over the grap between
the submission of the Questions at issue
and the decision of a court, upon which
coercive action against an offender
must depend.
If one of two parties to a quarrel
does not recognize the right of a court
t osit in judgment, the difficulty of
making any but an exparte degree is
plain. There is substantial concurrence
in respect to the right to make war,
which will remain the privilege of the
individual nations, but which actually
will require international sanction to
become effective, since with a declara
tion of war the world's peace will be
affected, and that is a matter which
cannot rest with the original parties to
a quarrel.
Departure Tine Draws Near.
The league of nations committee Is
holding day and night sessions, so the
President will be able to take back
with him something definite to present
to Congress, but it is doubtful if a com
plete plan can be accepted and drafted
by the time he sails.
Present plans call for his departure
on the George Washington, sailing on
February 17. It is almost certain he
will not go to Belgium before that
time. The statement is made tonight
by one who should know that it is
not at all certain he will return to
Paris, as ho may be obliged to remain
In the United States too long to make
another trip here worth while. It may
be said almost positively also that
he will not appoint anyone to act in
his absence, as tho programme has
been changed by which Secretary
Baker was to have come.
Lord Reading, the British Ambassa
dor, probably will sail with the Pres
ident. After a short stay in the
United States Lord Reading- will re
turn to England and resume bis duties
as Lord Chief Justice.
It is thought likely that Geneva or
Lausanne will be chosen as the seat of
the supreme court of the league of
nations.
BANK KEPT MONEY, CHARGE
General Linls Terrazas Files Salt for
$273,000.
LOS ANGELES. General Luis Terra
zas, who, before his holdings in Chi
huahua, aggregating 36,000,000, were
confiscated by Francisco Villa, was one
of the wealthiest men in Mexico, h
filed suit through Attorneys Gibson,
Dunn and Crutcher against the Banco
de Sonora sue de Chihuahua to recover
J273.184.64, with interest since Septem
ber 18, 1916.

Terrazas in the bank in Chihuahua In
1915, to be paid when certificates of
deposit should be presented at an El
Paso bank. General Terrazas alleges
that payment was refused when the
certificates were so presented.
The suit was brought in Los Angeles
for the reason that the Banco de So
nora has a place of business here. The
officers are Adolf o Bley, president; L.
A. Martinez, vice-president; Alfredo
May, director; Max Miller, general man
ager. and Louis Brauer, assistant gen
eral manager, all of this city.
The first certificate of deposit was
delivered to General Terrazas on Feb
ruary 5, 1915, for $512,500 Mexican
money, for value received, it is averred.
The current rate is 50 per cent discount
on the Mexican dollar in gold coin of
the United States. On February 1. 1S18.
the certificate was presented to the El
Paso bank and the money refused, lt is
alleged. A deposit of $33,860.29 was
made by the General -In the bank at
Chihuahua on September 18. 1915, and
the certificate of deposit was refused
when presented In El Paso.
