' card Noske aa the most Important' hls
Storioal event in Middle Europe. Before
- Xeske's advent as military dictator there
was no revolution to speak of ImGer
manay. The'revohrUon led by the 80
etalists of the middle and left wings was
a minority affair. - Noeke suppressed it
. wtth ease. In November, in January
aitd In March the German workingmen
. a a whole , were .not revolutionary.
TJader the kaiser they- were allowed to
organize ? into a large political party.
.This party was as orderly poiithsat nit
. within the German 'empire" worlds In
, aa orderly and rather idealistic way for
; some future Socialist Utopia. It toeeu-
pied about the same position la this life
' of the nation that the American national
guard did In peace times.

fc. The inner politic of the former Raiser
Wllhehn was distinguished by a patri
archal benevolence which disarmed the
revolution and left It a sort of contented
hope cherished by the working class. The
change front the kaiser to Noske, j how
ever, dispelled this state of affairs. In
order to preserve the military classes of
Germany and to keep Intact the bank
rupt ' capitalistic system - Noske was
forced to resort to violence. The gresult
has been a new born violence on the part
of; the worklagmen." Bach of hip vic
tories has served . only to Increase the
. revolutionary sentiment In Germany.
This sentiment, . It i must be under
stood, did not exist on November 9,
1918, the date of the first "Gerroaa revo-
j lution." Today all sides admit that the

Again in May, 191. Noske is heard in
the reichstag explaining : "Now is not
the time for a debate en the war aims
and therefore I do not wish to speak of
that. ' If 11 is desirable and necessary
our colonial possessions will be aug

were hailed with acclaim by the pan
Germans in the assembly. Later in July
Noske declares: "The Socialists agree

medieval order to ' kill all men found

"In such a dangerous situation as this

you say What I do. is illegal. ' It is not

Noske'a actsai ascendency to power

The governor ci iClei had appealed to
the reichstag to send, a member of the
German cabinet and the .Socialist party

STORY TOLD AT REUNION
Interesting Bit of History Is Re
vealed Recently at Gathering
Held at Greens burg, Pa.
Oreensburg. Pa, July 12. (I. n. S.)
Io the year 1749, Just 170 years ago
Frederick Pershing, an Alsatian, spoke
to his son, also named Frederick, as the
latter was starting for America as fol
lows: !,:-:,;;:':."..f;
"My son, the Huns and Magyars are
making war upon us. I do not want
Pressed into the army and
killed. On the morrow morn start early
for the coast and thence make your
way. across ths seas to the new world,
and there, some day. It Is my prayer
and prediction that you or your de
scendants will head an army that will
come overseas and whip the Huns and
Magyars and bring real freedom and
joy to the Alsatians.
Frederick became the founder of the
Pershing family in America and today
the prayer and prophecy of his father
have been answered and fulfilled. - Gen
eral John J. Pershing, a descendant,
commander of the American expedition
ary forces, as predicted by the elder
Frederick Pershing, commanded an army
to victory over the Germans and has
won real freedom and joy for the Al
satian - -
This Interesting bit of Pershing family
history was revealed by members of the
Pershing family who gathered here re
cently , for a reunion.
Ths history also, shows that the
founder of the family in this country
was given a few gold coins-by his father
and the -morning after being addressed
by his father started for the new world.
He worked his way over on a tailing
vessel and landed in Baltimore. .Some
time later he married a German girl
and the couple settled In Western Mary
land. '
In 17s4 the"! family moved westward,
taking up a "tomahawk claim" of 284
acres in Unity township, Westmoreland
county. Here four sons and two daugh
ters were reared. .General Pershing Is
.one of Frederick Pershing's descendants
of the fifth generation.
' Plans are being made'by members ot
the family to: hold a corn roast or a
barbecue, providing General ' Pershing
returns to this country within a short
time. Ths commander has promised to
visit his relatives as soon as possible
after his return from Europe. , . -
