NAVAL MEN
FORBIDDEN TO
USE LIQUOR
People who still have any left over
liquor in this land which is supposed
to be bone dry, and which is fast be
coming in fact as well as thoery, must
have care not to give any of it to
officers or men of the United States
navy.
Hear Admiral Fullam, commanding
Division No. two. United States Paci
fic fleet, has issued a circular letter
to commanding officers of all ships in
his division, the commandants of the
twelfth, thirteenth and fourteenth na
val districts, and te commanding of
ficers of all naval stations on tho
Pacific coast, calling to the "serious
attention of all officers and enlisted
men fo the navy, and of the people
at large,” to the general order of the
navy prohibiting the use of liquor
or its sale or gift to men of the navy.
Admiral Fullam's circular letter
says:
1. The serious attention of all of
ficers and enlisted men of the navy,
and of the people at large, is called
to the very strict requirements of the
most recent order concerning the use
of intoxicating liquor in the navy.
2 in addition to regulations pre
viously issued covering restricted
zones around naval camps and sta
tions. the secretary of the navy has
promulgated the following general or
der prohibiting the selling or serving
of intoxicating liquor to officers and
enlisted men of the navy service or
at any time:
"Outside of said zones alcoholic
liquor, including boor. ale. and wine,
either alone or with any other article,
shall not. direclty or indirectly be
sold, bartered, given, served, or know
ingly delivered to any officer or mem
ber of the navy forces within the
United States, their territories or po
sessions. or any place tinder their con
trol. rxi'i'pt when administered for
medical purposes by or under the di
rection of a regularly licensed physi
clan or medical officer of the United
States."
". The meaning and the scope of
this general order are perfectly plain
and it is the manifest duty of all of
lieers and enlisted men to Htrietly ob
serve the spirit as well as the letter of
its requirements.
4. It is, furthermore, the duty of
all persons in civil liffe at all times
and in all places to loyally comply
with the evident purposes of this or
der, and no officer or man in the naval
service should under any circumstan
ees place a civilian in the position of
violating a regulation that emanates
from the highest authority. There is
an added obligation to loyally comply
with an order of this kind in time of
war. The navy department has direct
ed that this matter he given the wid
est publicity.
•V This circular letter will be pub
lished and permanently posted on
board ship and at all naval stations
on the Pacific coast, and command
ants will request that it lie published
by the principal newspapers in the
vicinity of their commands.

OHIO BOY TELLS
OF HOT BATTLE
AN AMERICAN HOSPITAL IN
FRANCE, Sept. L\ (by mail). Mow
the Polish troops from America helped
stop and turn back the Hun tide that
attempted to sweed around Rlieims
in the first days of the iasl Herman
offensive was told today by Stanley
Zalesny. who is almost recuperated
from wounds he received in the light.
Stanley Zalesnv is ji Cleveland boy
by adoption lie went from Poland
to Cleveland to be free from Herman
kultur. and studied in the Cleveland
schools lit" Is a clean-cut robust
American boy now, with a slightly
Polish accent, and wearing the uni
form of the Polish Legion, to which
he volunteered.
"We were near Sippes, east of the
city of Rheims,” he said, "just before
the offensive, we found Americans
were on our left, and we were glad.
We wanted to tight alongside of them.
Our outfit was made up to a large ex
tent of Poles from America and Eng
land. So we were English-speaking,
though we had a French general com
manding us. He had two Russian
Polish generals under him.
"When the Hermans came over
there were lots of them, and the ar
tillery was heavy. We knew that the
Americans would hold them on the
left, and the French on the right, so
we shoved them back, and went over
after them. I was with the lirst Polish
troops to get to the Herman trenches.
“Then I was sent out on a patrol
with seven others of my company.
We got into a pretty hot place, and it
was bad. Six of them were killed,
and only two of us got back. We
were taken to the American hospital
and cared for by the Americans, and
were glad to get back with our own
Americans. I am having tin* time of
my lif«\ and feel fine* now. You can
see how well we are getting.”
Young Zalesny speaks Russian and
some German in addition to Polish
and "American." He says that most
of his comrades speak Russian too.
They are hoping to get to the Russian
front now. he says, because* they be
lieve they could do more good, not
only lighting, hut by the influence they
might have among the Russians and
Poles who could bo shown that the
German must In- conquered.
The Polish Legion is interesting,
especially to the Americans who en
counter these rugged chaps in French
him* uniform with di -tinetive square
foppt 1 hats, and an abundant vocabu
lary of standard American slang.
Their devotion, bravery, and high
morale* excite praise everywhere.

AN AMERICAN HOSPITAL IN
FRANCK, Sept, i! (by mail) Base J
hospitals, far to tile rear of the big "
offensives, play an important part in!-;
the lighting.
The way an offensive looks from a
big base hospital can be pictured from
a letter written by a non commis-! j:
sloned officer In an American basely
/
during the Chateau Thierry offensive. t
The writer starts his letter by tell- t;
mg how emergency surgical teams j j
from the hospital were called for sen- :■
ice at the front, departing one by j:
one. “Thus we had an inkling that -:
something big was afoot," he writes.!:
"We. left behind, waited Perhaps it J:
was only a local tight requiring tm
mediate surgical work, we thought.
In a few days we should know.
"Then came the wounded The first j <
train was light. At the time our ■
wards were but partially filled, hence j j:
we had no difficulty in receiving the £
Influx with a calmness that was al
most leisurely.
“Before we could breathe, however, i §
came another call from that unseen v
center of activity which sends us our x
charges. We were ready to receive S
patients, though the number sur
prised us a little, hut everyone fell y
to with a will and we wore ready. All
the wounded were received and ac- j:
commodated in a manner that brought j
credit to the hospital and to the army.
"We began to feel a little Impor- hj
tant and efficient. Then, almost be-J ij:
fore we had time to think, came aj:|
third order: ‘Be ready to receive—
patients.' That instantly wiped away !?
any thoughts of self-congratulation. It
put before us the greatest task yet. x
Four teams were organized, with a x
surgeon in charge of each, and no £
sooner was one case completed than •:
the next began. Such surgery, too! x
Some of the professional men 1 heard j J:
speak of It as ‘beautiful.’ For my j ■:
part, however, 1 can not describe it j
thus. To me it was rather marvel- v
