THE MORNING STAR,-WILMINGTON. N. C. SUNDAY, JULY 29, 1917. SIXTEEN TERRORIZING EXPERIENCES IN STORE FOR AMERICANS sp in the Baptism of German Bullets and Bombs Even the Bravest Man Will Stagger r NOISE ITSELF FRIGHTEUL All the Deviltries of Destruction Will be Used as an Intro ductory of "Hate" THE DEADLY GAS ISITHERE Germans Will Use- EyeiyWeapon Designed to Kill RAILROADS ARE NATIONALIZED Daniel Willard Says Statement Epito mizes Wonderful Story of Rail Trays In War Time. British Headquarters inFrajice, July 4. (Staff Correspondence of the Asso ciated Press.) The arrival ofj the first contingents .of the American) army in France serves to recall the ifact that the United States is entering a war already old and wise wise 'with the iearly bought wisdom of Chree long adventurous years and steeped-in all the diabolical wickedness that inces sant delving into the deviltries -of de struction can bring to it. Having escaped the first terrors of weapons which German science had. evolved through toilmg years of mil-, itary preparation, the Aimerlcan divis ions will nevertheless plunge eventu ally into a seething cauMon which h.as grown from the unavoidable policy of "fighting the devil with, fire." They will have quickly to learai not only to take the awful German frightfulness with calm endurance, but to return it with an ever increasing measure. In doing this many nerve-testfcng and soul searching experiences undoubted ly lie before them, but there are al ready thousands of young Americans in. the Canadian and British ranks who have proved themselves tradition ally worthy in the scorching 'flames of modern war. The American forces are fortunate indeed to be able to base their educa tion upon the bitter lessons learned by the French and British soldiers in all the eventful days that have followed that first rush of battle tin 1914. Mar- have been builded upon, those experi ences and out of these the American soldiers will glean the last word knowl edge that will fit them for the fore most trenches. First of all, when they take their place, will come the baptism of fire from the noisy black high-explosive German shells that scream in from afar and burst with terrifying re ports sometimes in most unexpected places. The Germans are great be lievers both in noise and high explo sives. They even mix their adored "H-E" with their shrapnel shells which break high in the air and send their bullets showering down with the whine of an angry winter wind. The Ameri cans soon will learn to distinguish the individual songs of the various shells for there is not the slightest doubt that the moment he discovers they are in the "line," the Germans will turn every available calibre of weapon against them in a flourish of introduc tory "hate." They will come over in order these shrieking, grumbling mis siles ranging in size all the way from the nasty little pip-squeaks or whiz bangs, up through the four-poinjt-tows, the five-point-nines and then, on to what the British Tommies laconically call "the big stuff" --the eight and ten inch howitzer shells and the projectiles from heavy calibred- long range naval guns, known without affection as "Whistling Percys." There -will be little opportunity to hear a "Big Bertha," for those famous old 42-centimeter howitzers are sel dom used nowadays. It is believed that the. Germans . planned to bombard Arras . with them, using prussic acid shells, but the British advance on Eas ter Monday last put a stop to that par ticularly nefarious scheme against the already sadly battered little Artois ca thedral city. There is also awaiting the hew American army bounteous baptism of bombs and hand grenades and the still more dismaying introduction to the ghastly rattle of the machine gun and Its sinister swish of spraying bullets sounds well calculated to stab with a moment of fear the heart of the brav est man. But above all the American soldiers must equip themselves to endure the lethal gas that will be sent over against them in poisonous, vaporish luge of heavily charged cylinders and shells. They must prepare to deal al so with the treacherous lachrymatory gas which while not dangerous to life, irritates the tearducts until one cries with blinded, smarting eyes for hou.s. The surprise of both these gases is their altogether pleasant smell, the lethal variety suggesting the cleean odor of a sanitary hospital, ward, while the so-called tear gas has the appetiz ing scent of crushed ripe apples, or cider. There is also reason-shaking terror of the "flamenwerfer," with its roaring stream of 'iquid fire flaring .with the velocity of a high pressure flre nozzle and with an outpouring of smoke rising like a black cyclone cloud to the heav ens. The first day of their stay in battle trenches the Americans will make the acquaintance of a very old, but scarce ly cherished, friend of the Tommies and .foiius another member of the . vr cuci ia.iimy nauwn as JMinnie. This is the German mine thrower or minewerfer, which flings over a short 1 sicai ueavy projectiles Known as "bying pigs," because of their wab- I bly, ungainly sight. They go off with a deafening roar, expending more en ergy on noise, however, than on ma terial damage. A notable development of the war has been the dread with which the Germans have seen weapons of their own invention turned against them, and turned with a steadily Increasing Intensity. Their prisoners speak of the terror these weapons have caused and declare the German higher com- . mand is realizing all too late the Frankensteins it brought into being. While the Entente allies are multiply ing these terrors on the lines laid down by Emperor William himself, the Germans, isolated so long from the world, find their resources and mate- ; rials constantly failing both as to means of carrying on this style of war fare and, what is more important to . them, combatting the retributive meas- ' ures undertaken, by the,.. British and French. - - - - - Asphyxiating gas may be taken as ; (Commerce and Finance, July 25.) "The railroads of the United States", said Daniel Willard, chairman of the Committee on Transportation of the Council of National Defense, "are na tionalized." j His simple statement epitomizes the whole wonderful story of the Ameri can railroads in war time. The 693 roads in forty-eight States operating some 263,000 miles vof line have co operated with an alacrity and enthu siasm in every movement for economy and efficiency that has been suggested either by the Council of National Defense or the Railroads' War Board, headed by Fairfax Harrison, that is gratifying. The results speak for themselves. For instance, passenger schedules have been curtailed on many of thj roads. Thus far, a saving of 16,267, 02S miles of train service a year', has resulted. In the one item of coal this will result in a saving of over a mil lion tons a year. The Pennsylvania lines alone have eliminated 3.300,000 train miles of passenger service, tho Erie and the B. & O. will save to gether nearly that much and the New England lines have cut off 4,847,332 miles in passenger train service. This releases both men and rolling stock for use in handling freight and troops when needed. In June the railroads hauled 26 per cent more bituminous coal than in June, 1916. Since the roads have been on a war basis they have handled by far the greatest traffic in history. Hundreds of troop trains have been handled without appreciably disturbing ordi nary schedules. Special consignment freight for the Government has been rushed through without a minute's delay. When the work of railway or ganization for war began there was a car shortage of 148,627 cars. Within one month that number had been re duced to 105.127 and a month later It had dropped to 77,144. And traffic was increasing all the time. Through efficiency in unloading and returning cars when they have reach ed their destination and other econo mies in loading it is stated that the railroads gained three billion train miles in one month or the equivalent of 779,000 cars in capacity. The fa cilities that have been added to Am erican railroads through these latter day economies are greater than the total service of any other country in the world. It is a wonderful record a striking example. The whole world was showed when Germany first re leased those poison clouds, during their second attack on Ypres when the Al lies, little suspecting such a weapon, had no protection against it. The hor ror of those days when men engulfed by the lethal waves died agonizing deaths will never be forgotten. But the manner in which the Canadian troops rallied and prevented the Ger mans breaking through in what they hoped would be a victorl (Ilia mai-nVt Calais and Boulogne, will ever be one oi tne most thrilling stories of the world war. Nowadays the British fair ly bathe the Germans in everv form n gas whenever the slightest opportuni ty uners ana prisoners all say their losses in these attacks have been alarmingly heavy. Gas is sent over in creeping banks of fog, is shot over in bombs that suddenly explode in the trenches and at entrances to dugouts while no billets or sleeping quarters for troops in rest miles back of the fighting lines are safe from gas shells which are ever knocking at their doors. The bitterness of it all to the Ger mans, however, Is the fact that daily they find they have less and less rub ber with which to construct their gas masks, many of which are very infe rior and offer but poor protection to the fighting men against gases that constantly are becoming more power Boiling and blazing oil drums which they find exploding about them in scalding and incendiary fury, heavy shells which break over them spurting streams of melted lead, are other spe cies of the dread chickens of frightful ness that are daily bylng home to the German roost. It is small wonder that half finished letters found, on Germans in the front lines dwell on the terror of the war or that some go so far as to speak a desperate envy of the dead. MARINE MEN NOT SURPRISED AT INCREASE IN WAR RISKS Regard it In Urgdy to Effort to Make Bureau Self Sustaining. New Yorlc July 28.

ROUSSES THE NEW GREEK MINISTER TO UNITED STATES SUBMARINE WAS CAPTURED WITH SIX OF ITS CREW Germans Set Eire to Gasoline Tank But Oraft Was Not Destroyed. Paris, July 28. The German subma rine that ran ashore on the French coast west of Calais on Thursday was not destroyed when its crew s&t flre to the gasoline tank, but was captured by a troop of Belgian cavalry, recall ing the exploit of the French Hussars who in 1794 captured an ice-bound Dutch fleet, according . to a dispatch from Calais today. The stranded submarine was first sighted by a customs officer. He called upon some Belgian horsemen who were exercising nearby to come to his help. They rode down the beach, the message reports, surrounded the U-boat and made .prisoners f the crew, while the astonished countryside watched the ac complishment of the feat.' . v Athens, Friday, July 2.
