How First Troops Embarked from New York for France
Target Practice Against Dummy
U-Boats Conducted at Fre
quent Intervals.
By DANIEL DILLON,
Staff Correspondent of International
News Service.
A PORT IN FRANCE, July 2 (by
mail to New York, July 21, passed
by censor).—The first overseas Amer
ican expeditionary force slipped down
through the fog that choked North
River on the morning of June 14 with
out a single cheer to bid it “God
speed” or “bon voyage,
Although the transports had been
lying in the river for several days
and the troops had been embarking
upon them in full sight of the city,
when the warship led them out to sea
& silence pregnant with the solem
nity of the moment in the nation’s
history enveloped them in a shroud as
thick as the morning mist.
Only the pilot, as he climbed down‘
from' the path-finding cruiser while
she poked her bow oceanward, threw'
back to the expedition a cheery “So
long, and good luck to you.”
The total absence of hurrahing,
band playing and flag waving usually
attendant on the event of troops go
ing to war brought home to the sol-|
diers on transports and the men oni
the convoy the deadly seriousness of
the work before them. ‘
Unseern Menace Brought Home. |
In the afternoon, when a little of
wreckage, apparently having been
washed hundieds of miles, floated in
among the wake of the ships, it lent
a culminating touch that portrayed
strikingly the unseen menace that lay
in wait “somewhere in the Atlantic.”
The day closed dismally with the fog
still brooding over the sea. |
Friday, however, broke clear and
the sunshine revealed twe transports
in lines, flanked on either side by
destroyers, and the pattle cruiser
pointing the way. ‘
During the morning the first ‘“aban
don ship” drill was instituted and the
men were assigned o life-saving
boats. As each man hurried to his
post he tied on his life-preserver. This
became part of the day’s routine,
Lookout patrols paced the decks and
dotted the conning towers, while the
gun crews constantly swept the ho
rizon with small-caliber guns. Day!
and night this unceasing vigil was!
kept aboard the ships. i
Submarine Practice. |
In the afternoon the gong clanged
the call to “general quarters,” and the
'Qhugle blared behind it the command to}
man the submarine defenses. Within
two minutes every gun was ready for
action and its crews were peering
geaward, straining to catch sight of a
German U-boat. This drill was prac
ticed every dav.
The new-found spell of good
weather continued to follow the ex
pedition and target practice was com
menced the second day out. The gun
crews aboard the various transports
and battleships blazed away at sub
marine targets that the boats towed
~ from their sterns. |
The marksmanship was splendid,
and every one afloat felt more con
fident of the outcome in the event a
submarine was met, after the exhi
bitions were over.
During the remainder of the voyage,
until the danger zone was reached, it
became necessary that the boats move
as silently as possible, but target
practice was held daily.
Marksmanship Splendid.
Without bordering on exaggeration,
it can be said that the accuracy of
the fire was deadly and it made nne!
feel that even if Uncle Sam did not|
have the largest navy in the world,
he had just about as fine a set of
gunners as ever fought under any flag |
afloat. ‘
Until mid-Atlantic, a smooth sea,
sometimes as placid as a millpond, a
warming sun and the gayest of all
light breezes chaperoned the expedi
tion. Due to these unusually pleas-

ant conditions, the health of the
troops was excellent and their spirits
high. Snatches of popular songs, the
twanging of guitars and mandolins,
the cheery laughter of healthy men
could be heard at all hours of the day
ricocheting from one boat to an
other. .
Sundown brought its cloak of si- |
lence and darkness. Every porthole
wag closed, not a light was allowed
above decks, only low whispering was
tolerated and the officers muffled their
commands as they gave them. The
boats raced zigzaggingly through the
night. |
A number of merchant vessels, fly
ing the flags of nearly every country
in Europe, as well as our own, passed
us, indicating that the submarine
blockade was being successfully run.
Just as the ouv.cr fringe of the sub
marine zone was reached the weather
turned bad-—a sea rough and choppy,
and a mist like a drizzling rain. One
could feel the new note of expectancy
as it closed around the ships.
But every heart beat faster with
pride and every eye brightened with
confidence when they caught the
brave sight of a flotilla of American
torpedo destroyers racing out from
the horizon to meet us.
They maneuvered in their scout col
umn with a dash and gracefulnness
that reminded one of a blue-ribbon
winner ‘going through his paces at
a horse show.
And without any flurry or to-do
about it, they reported, took their
orders from t¥le admiral and in less
than half an hour after being sighted
were out riding on the flanks and
rear of the convoys, busily combing
the sea for lurking submarines.
“The Boys Who Do Things.”
There was such a finish to their
work; such a matter-of-fact air to
their dashing about, such a debonair
confidence in their speedy flights that
one readily understood how they had
already come to be dubbed in Eng
lish waters, “The Boys Who Do
Things.”
(At present writing censorship for.
bids the chronicle of events of the
next forty-eight hours.)
A day from shore two jaunty little
French patrol boats came puffing out
to meet us, and after they had po
litely inquired if they might show us
the way to France and the American
admiral, with equal politeness, an
swered, “It would give great pleasure
to follow,” they took up the job of
guiding us through the mine-laid
waters off the coast of France.
Late at night an island, rich in its
lore of brigandage and piracy in the
harbor.
We lay in the outer waters for the
night, but the early morning saw us
again under way and before noon

The quay front rapidly blackenea
with people who came down to wel
come the expedition with joyous
| shouts of “Vive Amerique.” The
'whole c¢ity turned out to greet the
i first shore party from the transports,

'was a continuous ovation of welcome,
. Admiral Gleaves, who had virtually

lwhen he glanced over the boats at

Drafted Men May Enlist Up to the
. .
Time They Are Called for
Examination,
All young men drawn in the selec
tive draft will still have the oppor
tunity of voluntarily enlisting up to
the time they are called for physical
examination, it was made known Fri
day afternoon in a telegram from the
Adjutant General’'s office in Wash
ington to the local recruiting office.
The telegram read:
“After a registered person has been
called for military service by his local
board and directed to appear for phy
sical examination, he ceases to be
eligible Tor voluntary enlistment.”
This information was received with
gratification in local army circles, as
it was believed it would mean a spurt
in recruiting within the next few
days.
The navy recruiting office also has
received notification from Washing
ton that young men in the army draft
who are not actually chosen for ac
tive service will be entitled to enlist
in the navy. Many requests already
have been received at the navy re
cruiting office as to whether men
drawn for the conscript army would
be allowed to enlist in the navy, if
they should so choose. Under the
orders received, no man called for ex
amination under the selective draft
will be permitted to enter the navy.
The telegram follows:
~ “Continue enlistment of registered
men between the ages of 21 and 30,
inclusive, unless they have been
actually selected for active service in
selective draft only. Men holding
number selected to form only will not
be enlisted in the navy.”

For a Peace Bond
Charles Hillyer, the young attorney
who made a spectacular attempt to
escape from the Courthouse Friday
afternoon after he had been placed
under a $2,600 peace bond by Judge
L. Z. Rosser, Jr., in the Municipal
Court, Saturday had been unable to
make the bond and still was in the‘
Tower.
Hillyer's troubles were said to have‘
been caused by his apparent infatua- |
tion for Mrs. May Donaldson, a young
vaudeville actress, which had resulted |
in his arrest once before. He was
placed under the peace bond Friday
on evidence that he had threatened
'to kill the young actress because she
refused to marry him. Mrs, Donald
son was in court as a witness. 3
Hillyer created a dramatic scene
when he dropped to his knees before
Judge Rosser and pleaded for mercy.
'When this demonstration proved un
availing he dashed from the court
room and down seven flights of stairs
‘to the Courthouse entrance, where he
'was captured by Deputy Marshal

N these days of rising prices, you can’t keep up the home, can't give the family
