French Expect Big Things of Amerloan Officers, However, Think Hopes Will Not Be Realized for Months. PRESSURE OF STRUGGLE FELT Army Men Want Joffre Back at the Front "Morale" the Problem That la Confronting the Foreign Belligerent, How the Centorthlp Work. By LINCOLN EYRE. (Correspondent of the New York World.) Paris. A few minutes before the Bpeclul train bringing General Pershing and his staff from Boulogue rolled in to the Oare du Nord the other day a tralnload of "permlssionulres" sol diers on leave from the front arrived at the same station. The "pollus," leaning out of their dusty third class coaches, caught sight of Marshal Joffre standing on the platform wult Ing, with M. Itlbot, the premier; M. Vlvlanl, minister of justice, nud other dignitaries, to welcome the American commander In chief to the capital. "Vive Joffre 1" shrieked a "permls- sionaire," nnd the cry was taken up all along the line of dense-packed cars. 'It's he who spared our lives In useless attacks," shouted a bronzed, bearded veteran, "we want Joffre back at the front I" "Yes, yes," yelled his companions, "We want Joffre, who doesn't waste our lives I Give us Joffre !" The Problem of Morale. Fortunately the cry, which could not have foiled to reach the ears of the prime minister as well as the mar shal, died away In the excitement of General Pershing's arrival. To those who had heard, however, and who are aware of the situation on the front and In the interior of France today, Its sig nificance was not lost. To me it meant that after almost three years of In cessant slaughter, the "pollu" has learned to distinguish very clearly be tween leaders who sacrifice their men uselessly nnd those who, like the victor of the Marne, never make n move with out counting the possible cost In lives. It was, moreover, another bit of evi dence that there Is no more Important problem among all those at present confronting belligerent governments than that of "morale." The spirits of the men In the trenches, as well as of their wives, sisters, sweethearts, pa rents In the rear, must be kept up to the mark. Every day Increases the strain upon soldiers and civilians In war-harassed nations. Tight-strung nerves are spanning apart everywhere In the cities and villages, fur from the ring line, as much as In the zone of the armies. That Is why the com ing of Pershing and his division Is of such Immeasurable value In the never ceasing propaganda going on over all France to maintain at the necessary level France's determination to win the war. American officers, who have sensed this insistence upon the greatness of the aid to be provided by the United States are a bit fearful that expecta tions difficult of realization will be aroused among the French army and people. They know the obstacles that He In the way of Immediate military co-operation on a grand scale and feel that n great mnny months must elapse before the weight of American arras can make itself felt In the fighting. Allow for Frightful Strain. "Today our principal preoccupation must be the prevention of that lassi tude and discouragement which, as our enemies hope, will weaken our national defense by corroding the Iron of our arms," was the way Compere Morel, one of the heads of the socialist party in the chamber of deputies, said In a conversation I had with him re cently. "Authority must be used with greatest ease, Justice must be unwav ering. More than that, allowances KINGDON GOULD AND -BRIDE Klngdon Gould, son of George J. Gould, recently surprised his family and friends by quietly marrying Miss Annunzlata Camilla Maria Luccl, an ar tist and former governess to Klngdon Gould's sister. Klngdon Gould Is a grandson of Jay Gould and la a well known sportsman. CI --J! Our Fighters must be made for the duration of the frightful strain under which soldleri and folk at home alike are laboring. Discipline must be maintained, of course, but this li not the time for martinets. "Without Indicating the moral state of our troops, It would be nevertheless vain to deny that those engaged In this appalling couillct are morally and physically tired. To pretend that we are as strong spiritually as we were at the time of the Murne Is absurd. Dis aster Is certain to follow a refusal to recognize the wear and tear upon the nerves of men, and women, too, bear ing the fearful burden of this war." Little of the tremendous pressure of the struggle upon Individuals Is vis ible to the casuul observer. One might travel through France from end to end and never get a glimpse of It. The soldiers one sees seem cheerful enough. There Is bustle nnd movement In the streets of the cities. Even In the slums the surface of things reveuls no trag edy. Listen to the talk of "pollus" among themselves, however, and sit alongside a circle of gossiping house wives of the poorer class, and one will soon detect the tautness of their nerves and the weariness pervading their thoughts. The newspapers are silent about all this ; firstly, because of the censorship, and, secondly, because they necessar ily are part of the conscious or uncon scious propaganda for the maintenance of morale. When Incidents occur they print only what they are told by the official press bureau. A paragraph like this, for Instance, means little to a reader not familiar with such mat ters : "Last night at seven o'clock on the Boulevard de la Vallette a brawl start ed, for trifling reasons, among five sol diers. Some Kabyles emerging from a nearby factory and pnssersby were mixed up In the scuffle. The police Intervened to re-establish order, Sev eral arrests were made." What really occurred, though not a newspaper so much as hinted at it, was rather more serious. The soldiers who were on leave from the front, had heard that the Kabyles, who are Arabs Imported to clean the streets, were to be used to repress disturb ances among the civilian population. They had been told so by their wives, one of whom had been ogled by a Kabyle. When the "polltfs" attacked them the Kabyles naturally resisted, and a riot ensued In which a dozen persons were severely wounded, This affray was preceded by an even bloodier affair, In which a num ber of Annamlte soldiers were attack ed by a crowd of women nnd "permis- slonalres" and several were killed. An Annamlte battalion was brought to Paris at a time when the strikes were at their height, and the rumor spread with miraculous swiftness all through the city that the Anhamites had been summoned because the French garrt son would refuse to fire upon the crowd In the event of a riot. Depressing Rumors Flood City, That there was any truth In this may be doubted, but certainly the pres ence of the Mongolian troops at so stressful a period was unfortunate. An namltes are anathema to all Parisians nowadays, simply as a result of the rumors and the really furious fight that arose out of them. Yet, beyond a for mal communique no more communl catlve than that about the Kabyles, there has been no mention of the mnt ter In print. Paris Is flooded with rumors these days, as It has never been since the first weeks of the war. Most of them are depressing and doubtless a con siderable percentage are deliberately Inspired by pacifists and pro-Germans, of whom there are a good many to be found in the Greek and Spanish colo nies. Whether they are true Is of lit tle consequence; the Important thing Is they are believed to a large extent, even by persons well Informed about the situation as a whole. One of the minor problems con nected with the "permlsslonalres,' who, released for the time being from direct discipline, have a tendency to become unruly, is the evil that lies In wait for them at the railroad stations In Paris. Almost all of them pass through the capital on their way to and from the front, and at the sta tions they are preyed upon not only by merchants of vice, but by the agents of anarchy and pro-Germans as well, who seek to Inculcate peace-afr any-prlce Ideas, and the desire to re volt by spreading stories of the terri ble conditions prevailing in the rear. The "pollus" learn In their own homes that most of these yarns are not true, but on the other hand they hear a mass of rumors which have almost the same effect upon weaker characters, and they believe them all the more really because they come from their own wives or relatives.

Atlllo Gatzl told Magis trate Nauiner that the only reason he kept his dog unmuzzled during these hot days was because the pup took the place of an errand boy.

HELP CHEER THE JACKIES Friends and Relatives Urged to Write Cheering Letters to the Boys In Training. Great Lakes, 111. A movement to bring a little more Joy Into the lives of the young men at the United States naval training station here has been started by the Loyal Otrls of America. This society hus Inaugurated a cam' palgn to Impress upon the friends and relatives of the bluejackets the lm portance of writing them cheering let ters. "Don't write your son John that you are unhappy while he Is awny In the service of his country," Bays Miss Ger trude Elmore, secretary of the society. "Don't tell him thut his favorite dog Is pining away. Tell him how envious the boys at home are of him and his opportunity. Tell him that you expect him to make good, that he must make good for the suke of himself, his home and his country." Mnny of these youthful sailors are away from home for the first time In their lives and It Is but natural that they should feel a little homesick at times. Letters from home written In a cheerful vein will work wonders In keeping "up their spirit and inspiring them with the determination to give their best service to their country In Its hour of need. GRAIN WENT THROUGH FIRE After Ten Years It is Found In Ruins of an Elevator In Louisiana. Blanchard, La. In excavating for new approaches for the Farmers' ele vator, the debris of the elevator fire of ten years ago was unearthed. Among other things was a pocket of wheat containing a bushel or more, charred black but whole, that had lain there all these years. Every berry was as perfect as the duy of the fire. Covered by earth and ashes, it was hermetically sealed from the elements, The old elevator was the property of J. H.
