The Distinguished Service Medal, which he won by capturing 18 Germans single-handed, was stolen from him several yearn ago, l Rated 100 per cent disabled, the government pays this comparatively unknown North Carolina war hero a pension of $30 a month. However, Haig is not complaining; “'I can live on $30 a month,” he said here this veek, “but I can't pay hospital and doctor bills.” He thinks treatment at Hot Springs, Ark., will make him a well man. But he achnits Charlotte Veterans Bureau physicians think dif ferently. i~'. Haig was a member of Company I, 119th Infantry, 30th Division. Dolph Blue of Carthage and. Marvin Ritter of Hemp served with him in this outfit, - While Haig harbors no illusions bn this score, there are some Who hold he was a greater here than Sergeant York. He kept his finger on the firing lever of a hapd grenade,'ready to die if his captives, who were bunched about him after he had marched them out of a cement dugout, made a false move. "I was determined not to be taken a prisoner,” Haig modestly ex plained, “and although it meant in stant death for me if I released the grenade firing lever, I would have bad the satisfaction of killing several of those Germans and maiming most of the rest. They realized I was in earnest, or they would have ‘ganged’ Haig’s exploit was a lone affair from the start to finish and was not suceessfuly culminated until after a German officer had emptied the con--; tents of his Luger pistol in the direc tion of his face. Poor visibility due to the early monupg fog and dense smoke front barrages 'and counter barrages laid down before the advance' of the 119th, accounted for the atro cious marksmanship. j ; : I _• y; ■ f " • i *jf‘ ' ‘ ¥£ }». f'• ■'■■ ' JgSjjgjSs Because some misiufomed per son told him Chiropractic was a fake—:—-and osgg*;,-. <[■*:’ - li ? ■■ - ■>/ HE BELIEVED IT ! 35.000,000 .1:; !

His knowledge of our language enabled me to , control his 17 com patriots,” >. Pressed to tdl the story of the cap tore, Haig reluctantly proceeded: “As I stated, visibility was poor When wo started over the top early that morning. One could hardly see more than a .few feet ahead, and then only with the greatest difficulty. We were following what is known as a ‘split trench,’ and I had proceeded some distance when I missed my bud dies,; I was'alone in that, particular stretch of No-Man’s Land, close to the German lines. j "A machine gun started whining | away. Prom the flash, of the gun I , realised I was right upon the death dealing instrument. I ‘thought my t time had come. My eyes piercing the " smolde and fog, I saw the outline of 'a man’s figure, the lone operator of Ithe gun, it later developed, a short, distance away, Taking quick aim, I Started firing with my rifle. II “The gunner slumped in my direc tion, screaming ‘Kamerad.’ I rushed. j to his side and bayoneted him before I he could make another outcry. “Stumbling forward, my knees struck the; curbing to Hie entrance 'of a dugout. This cement obstruction j wgs my first ‘break,’ as 1 would | otherwise have fallen in the gapping hole.'— —__ “As I reared back to. regain my footing, an "toper's Lead protruded I from the dugctre. Sighting me, he, : held up his right hand and shouted’ ‘Kamerad!’ Having but one bullet in | my rifle, and realizing that there were likely to be a score or more men with the officer, I lowered my gun ^lightly to reach for a- band grenade. The movement nearly coat me my life, as the officer quickly brought up his left hand and started emptying his pistol. He shot nine times before I got my gun back to< firing position. X was sotu scratched, but terribly fri ghtened. I was shaking so badly that my last bullet, fired point-blank at the officer's heart, struck him in the right shoulder. This time, his gun empty, both of his hands went up in the air as be begged, ‘Kamerad.* “ 'How many of you down there?’ t asked, finally pulling out the hand : grenade from my Oanada bag and jerking off the pin. To my surprise he answered in perfect. English, eighteen,’ ■■■■:•' : v t " 'Don’t, don’t,” he implored, as ne saw D was getting ready to throw the gre>',ade into the diigout, ‘my men will surrender.* . L , " *TeIl them to throw down'their guns and side arms mid come out one »t a time,* I instructed. “A few shouts to German were ex shanged. The men started climbing >ut of the dugout, one ait a time, each with both of his hands raised. "Brandishing the hand grenade threateningly, my finger toying with the firing: lever, the release of whiclv - - would hav meant instant death to me and many of the Germans, I eom mended theofficer to have hismen: follow me. I had a small pocket concur ' pass, and knowing that I started due ; , South in the jump-off, I headed - north. Pretty soon We were back to the American lines. , '"That German officer, who said he had lived in New York.
