IT IS not safe even In this day of
freedom of speech to dlJpute the
celebrated rumor that tha "marines
won the war." It would not be
proper to dispute the fact that no
better regiments of fighting men ever
wore shoe leather than the 6th and
th marines, who did all the work at
the front for their branch of the
service, and helped make famous tho
2d division.
Chateau Thierry was the turning
point of the war, and on the day of
this famous battle the "Leathernecks
stamped their mark In the records of
the war In such a way that they will
never be forgotten, even though their
publicity agents die of writers cramp,
Not .more than 'SOUO marines were
at any one time engaged at the front.
The brigade which they formed In the
2d division fought side by side with a
brigade of doughboys of the 9th and
23d infantry. It was not until after
the war had ended and the strict
censorship of the army eliminated
that the people of the United States
realized that the doughboy brigade
was as much responsible for the turn
ing of the tide at V'hateau Thierry as
the marines.
No more proud organzation of fight,
lng men ever lved than the "Leather
necks." They are proud of the fact
that they have been given difficult
tasks and have acquitted themselves
at all times with honor and distinc
tion. During tho world war each ma
rine at the front went against the
enemy with the traditions of his or
ganization in m'nd. He was a fight
ing man he had to be to be a ma
rine and there was no faltering when
there was grave danger.
On one occasion when the 2d divi
sion was in action in the Argonne t
company of marines was ordered to
make an assault on a particularly
dangerous hill which was infested
with German maohlne gunners. Rifles
were discarded, packs thrown aside
and even raincoats, overcoats and
blankets were dropped. The men
loaded themselves with hand grenades
and successfully made the assault,
wiping out the enemy and destroying
his defenses. The following day their
dead bodies dotted the hill where they
fell, but their faces were turned In
one direction towards the enemy.
The talking point of the marine
publicity agent that wherever there
Is danger and trouble they send the
marines is in no measure false. They
have settled disputes in. onr Island
possessions many times. They have
policed Lafn-American countries and
brought order out of chaos. They
were At. Ps. In Paris, and for this the
doughboy will never forgive them.
Late in the war detachments from the
11th and 13th regiments of marines
were detailed to work as M. Ps. The
men who made up these details were
men who had never been in action,
but they were Inspired by the cele
brated rumor that "the marines won
the war." Life in Paris became a
burden to the poor doughboy who was
unfortunate enough to be found at
large on the boulevards without a
pass or who thoughtlessly neglected
to salute a second lieutenant. So
many complants were made that
eventually. In order to bring back a
more enjoyable condition in the city,
bo far as Americans were concerned,
the marines were removed from the
M. P. duty.
Berton Braley wrote a poem which
he titled "Leathernecks." It is as
follows:
A couple-a pplggotty countries
Was gonna, put on a war.
But we sent down a bunch-a Leathernecks
And they Bex to them guys, "What for?
What for are you gonna bo flghtln'T"
An' the splggotty lads they spoke,
"Aw, listen, ynu Mr. U. S. Marines,
That war, aha la Jooat a Joke!"
Marines, thass all.
Give 'em a call
And the tumult and shoutln' cease;
In spiggotty land t
They take their stand,
Keepln' the well-known peace!
They knock the marines In Haiti, '
So X have heard an' seen,
But Haiti was onct a sink of filth.
An' now It is sweet an' clean;
An' the cacos ain't kiilln people
The way that they dona before,
For "Can that stuff," say the Leather
necks An' there's peace on the Haitian shore!
Marines, thass all.
Give 'em a call
To any old kind of scenes;
An' life grows calns
Like a placid psauir,
Thanks to thenttough Marines.
8ure. they're a hard-boiled outfit "
Husky an' rough an' brown.
But It ain't exactly a kisin' game, :
Puttln' them ruckshuns down;
An' where they go, 1 nor.lce
The trouble Is over soon
An' the savage don't stab his neighbor
Under the tropic moun.
Marines, thass all, r
Give 'em a call
, An' the trouble and rows decrease;
In various scenes
You'll find Marines
Ieepin" the well-known peace!
Doughboys, will you ever forget:
Freddie Poltz'a order to salute all
passing automobiles?
The bunk they used to pass out
about you wanting the league of na
tions, when all you wanted was to
get back home?
The Belgian barmaid who told you
he could play the American national
anthem, kicked off her wooden Bhoes
and played "Everybody's Doing It
Now?"
How you pitied the poor folks back
home when you were In Henry's bar,
where anything could be obtained for
the asking and the price?
How Colonel Saville at the hour
of 4 A. M. after an all-night hike
through the rain said, "Now men,
here's a nice place to sleep," and led
you Into the swamp back of St.
Mihiel?
How nice the Hotel St. Anne looked
from the outside?
How your hobnailed shoes acted on
the Paris flagstones?
The cafe at Nice that carried a sign
"For Enlisted Men Only"?
When they changed the signs on
the station at Luxemburg City from
"Eingang" to "Entree" and from
"Ausgang" to "Sortie"?
The amusing Incidents of war that
come drifting back in the memory of
the veteran are talked of much more
frequently than those experiences
that were of serious consequence.
Eddie Valentine has a fund of stories
which he delights In telling, and
among them always Jp "wop" run
ner for the 361st infantry is featured.,
"The wop came from California to"
our organization and immediately be
came a regimental character," said
Valentine a few days ago. "He was
without much education but had made
money as a contractor before he came
into service. His chief ambition was
to get to France. "Mister Lieutenant,
my mother, she live In Italy,' he used
to say. 'We go to France I see my
.mother in Italy.'
"We were making the assault on
Gesnes on the 29th of September.
Lieutenant Fortune had constructed
himself a funkhole just deep enough
to permit him to protect himself from
machine gun bullets that were sweep
ing the field. The hoche were aware
that Fortune was In the hole, knew
he was an officer and were directing
their fire on the hole in order to
drive him out.
"The wop cam crawling up toward
the hole on his hands and knees. He
observed that the bullets were Just
sweeping the ground where Fortune

was hiding. He crawled within two
feet of the line of fire.
"'Please sir. Mister Lieutenant,' he
said as he saluted, 'I'd like to go see
my mother In Italy!'
"You get the hell out .of here,' re
plied Fortune, 'or you'll see your
grandmother.' "
Many infantrymen were fatalists.
It came w ith the game to be so. These
men believed that they were num
bered and when their number showed
up It meant nothing short of "push
ing up daisies."
A detachment of infantrymen was
seeking protection from German fire
In funkholes in the Argonne. Shells
were dropping all around. Two
men were In the same hole and were
calmly sharing their lone cigarette.
A shell exploded within a few feet
of them and the nose brushed the
"tin hat" of one of the men and fell
In the hole beside him. .He grasped
the nose, found it to be hot, and rap
idly tossed it from one hand to an
other until it was cool. Then he wiped
the dirt from the piece and searched
until he found the numbers with
which it was marked. Reaching into
his shirt he found his identification
tag, observed the numbers on it and
compared them with those on the
nose of the shell.
"That's not my number," he quietly
remarked to his buddy. Such was the
psychology of many infantrymen.
.
Tho largest crowd of "the year
probably will attend the meeting of
the American Legion on the first
Monday night in December. There
Is going to be an election, and mem
bers are interested and are going to
be there.
After the election Is at an end and
conditions have returned to "nor
malcy" the one-meetlng-a-year mem
bers will probably also revert back
to their normal condition and re
frain from participating In legion af
fairs until another election comes
along.
Portland post is Just about back on
its feet. Its debts that have given
it an unsavory reputation among a
number of Portland business houses
are being paid. Extravagance is be
ing eliminated and preparations are
being made to make the organization
felt In the city more than ever before.
Leaders i of the organization are
seeking the active co-operation of
every member. They feel that the
man who comes out to meeting only
when there Is an opportunity to vote
should have a reversal of form and
be on hand when there is work to
be done.
At a meeting of McMinnvllle post
of the American Legion Monday night
Lyle Briedwell was nominated as
commander to Bucceed Howard C.
Gildea. Other officers nominated
were Lee M. Waukaman. vice-com
mander; Glenn Macy, adjutant; AVill
lam Martin, finance officer; Kenneth
Hartzel, chaplain; Lamar Tooze, his
torian, and Earl M. French, sergeant-at-arms.
The executive committee
was chosen as follows: Herbert pof
frler, Soren Peterson and Don Ringle.
The- membership of the post-, now
numbers 200.
The attorneys of McMinnvllle who
are members of the legion adopted
an unusual method to obtain new
members for the post In their, work
on bonus applications. When an ap
plicant for the bonus vi!ted the of
fice of one of the attorneys (o request
aid In making out his application he
was asked whether he was a mem
ber' of the legion. If he was not a
member he was given the option of
either paying the attorney $3.50 for
the services he received or affiliating
with the legion. He usually joined
the organization.
Lane Goodell, state commander of

MARRIED IMEN LET OUT

MRS.'X. ANDREWS DISCHARGED
BY MR. PIER.
Commissioner Removes Operator
Who Has Husband Able to Care
for Her and Makes Job Vacant.
In conformity with an alreadV an
nounced policy of replacing married
women who have husbands able to
support them with men or women
with dependents. City Commissioner
Pier yesterday informed Mrs. N. An
drews, telephone operator in the city
hall, that her position would be de
clared vacant on December 1.
Mrs. Andrews has been employed
by the city for a number of months,
but not for a sufficient length of
time to be a civil service employe.
As a result she will have no appeal
from the order.
In informing Mrs. Andrews of his
decision, Commissioner Pier stated
that he had made a careful investi
gation which proved that she had a.
husband who was earning sufficient
to support both husband and wife,
and that in view of, the fact that a
great number of unemployed who are
both needy and worthy are appealing
to him daily for work he felt justified
in declaring the position vacant.
Commissioner Pier took the lead In
weeding out married women who
have husbands who are employed
from the employ of the city. With
out knowing what the outcome might
be, he dismissed Mrs. Grace Silver
stein, who was employed in the city
treasurer's office.
. Mrs. Silverstein appealed to the
civil service board and a hearing fol
lowed, resulting in a decision uphold
ing the dismissal made by Commis
sioner Pier. It is believed that there
are five or six women in other de
partments of the city who will be
affected by the general policy.
