, It is the only patriotic poticy.
It is the policy this company has
always adopted and the one we will

We stand ready to undergo any
sacrifice in order to cooperate with
the Government.
We believe it is best forourselves,
We know it is best for our coun

and small-to adopt the same policy.
American business must rally as
a unit to the support of the Govern
ment. It is the surest and the quickest
way to win the war.

FREE TO GIVE PRAISE
Washington, July 3. " Rcmarkabl.e

Hie committee embodied ils opinion
in a letter to Baker, saying the war de

and satisfaction." '
Baker d"t:iiled the nnny increases,

I)oaald Hudson of Kansas City, whose
machine gun had jammed, dived di
rectly between two Germans who hud
maneuvered Fred Norton of Columbus
Ohio, into a dangerous position and
probably saved his life.
The fight ended with the remaining
Germans fleeing to their own lines.
The warm feeling towai'4 Americans
by the French population in this re

from the mayors in the Manx district
o the cominandin.T general.
"Th.' people will not forget the be
shilling of June, when the invaders
threatened their homes and the Ameri

and saved them," thu letter read.
