AMERICAN RED CROSS WORKER | TELLS OF RAID Deseribes What Happens When | Boche Aeroplanes Drop i Their Bombs MANY ACTS OF HEROISM| Washington, July 30.—Writing of a/ German air raid on Paris, one, of the! American Red Cross iispectors gives | a thrilling account of how American | troops and Red Cross workers give aid.to the city in such desperate mo- | ments. He describes an air raid inj is fashion: jowhere is there any sound but the echoes of footsteps. Not a street light -is to be seen, not a single ray, of light—nothing but the inkiest and | most impenetrable darkness. Then all | of the noise of the world seems to; break loose. Clang-clang-clang booms the tocsin—like a gigantic pneumatic) riyeter working on a colossal bell. Whooo-o shrieks the siren, running up and down the scale in an awful wail. “The streets come to life. Doors open and slam shut. The sidewalks are full of ghostly figures hurrying toward the caves, where the inhab- itants have fitted up cost and bunk: They get up now to make a sitting} place for the new comers. The place | fills up. Everyone looks apathetic, sleepy and bored. The children go to! sleep with their heads on their moth- ers’ shoulders, and a girl in the uni- form of a street car conductor swaps war yarns with a poilu in dingy blue. In the last raid the front trucks of! her. car were thrown from the rails by the displacement of an exploding torpedo. The car and its inmates were | unhurt. The poilu looks a mite in-| eredulous and murmurs, ‘I can well | believe you, Mademoiselle.’ “Outside the noise continues for about three or four minutes and then subsides as a new noise starts—the Archies, or anti-aircraft guns, which commence to bark furiously from a half dozen different points. Search- lights rake the sky. The Archies con- tinue their clamor, but they are not firing at anything, merely keeping up a barrage fire to prevent the Boche flying over the city. *“Sudflenly there is an earth-rock- ing WHOOM. No more doubt as to where the Boches are. WHOOM, WHOOM, WHOOM! One involuntar- ily ducks and tries, turtlewise, to cov- er his head with his shoulders. A hid- eous noise resounds up and down the deserted street—falling walls, and the tinkling and crash of showers of brok- en glass and roofing tiles. “Through the glass and litter of the street an American Red Cross camoinette comes plowing its way. One of the city firemen stands on the running board. They stop and the fireman flashes an electric lamp into the ruins, makes a hasty inspection, and then runs up the street and dives into the redlight ‘cave.’ “‘Anybody here from numbers 49; to 51? he calls. A half dozen voices. yell out that there is. | “Is everybody here from those num- | bers? Was there anyone left in either of those buildings?’ “There is an anxious calling back | and forth and a rapid counting of! noses. ‘All here,’ is the answer. “Good! Not much left of those two |* buildings. Don't enter the ruins un- til they have been inspected by the}! engineering department. Go to the! Sisters of the Poor if you want food | g or a place to sleep,” | “A wail and several curses com- | pete, but the fireman is gone. “The Archies have stopped and| there are 10 more whooms, but people | stay in their cellars. It is only 9 o'clock, and experience has shown | that the industrious and methodical | Boches will keep coming back again and again until after midnight. “A half mile away a bright red glow | gets larger and larger and lights the! sky. A fire has broken out in the rail- | road yards and is making great head-; way. Several cars of oi] are burning fiercely and spreading to cars of mer-! chandise. Half a dozen American sol- | diers are working feverishly trying to get the untouched cars away from the fire. “Two of them have got hold of a switch engine and are shunting out; whole strings of cars. “Do you know anything about these French ‘engines, Sir?’ asks the/| impromptu engineer, ‘I can't find the nie’ fe WAY toward {the parks and some ‘pansy beds oblit- | were leveled to the ground and many Broken glass is difficult to replace in Paris, so the French have adopted a novel method of saving their window panes | from ‘breakage when the Germans bombard the capital. It consists merely in pasting wide strips of paper over the glass. |HOW FRENCH SAVE THEIR WINDOWS FROM AIR RAIDS These let the lifht through and at the same time effectually i prevent, the glass from cracking. Of course the paper is no || protection if a shell from “Big Bertha” or an air bomb goes straight through the window.

Rol] them kegs o' gas outa here,’ yells the corporal, and the Jine of drums. starts trundling down the pier.. It is infernally hot, and the average man does not know just how hot gasoline can get before it begins to misbehave; but the line never wavers. “Roll ’em along, boys! Keep ’em going. Everybody has got to die some time.” “Little by: little things become qui- eter, The fires die down. ‘The Arch-{ ies stop.

Someone is missing, and they want to get him out of a cellar., Now! the tocsin sounds again, this! time with slow, stately, measured beats. !This is the ‘All’s Clear’ signal. No more enemy planes are flying be- tween here and the fighting lines. People come out of their ‘cellars and go home. A few. cautious souls are busily ‘putting sheets of’ paper and pieces of bedding across their broken windows to keep out the dreaded ‘courant d’air.’ Now and then there is a small group in a doorway, re- counting experiences, “The Boche has dropped more than one hundred bombs tonight, many of them of the, 6600-poyind size. The: net damage is not very great. A few houses destroyed, many windows broken, a few victims—very few, but all too many;*asfew holes blown in the streets, some trees uprooted in erated. “Iyimagine that back in his quarters the Boche esvadrillé- kommandatur, after sadly cataloguing his own wounds, is writing up an account ot his glorious night's work for the edi- fication of the readér of the ‘Kolni- schezeitung.’ His ductile pen is reel- ing off: ‘The earth reeled and rocked and: while: rows of buildings went down like card houses the light of the flames showed panic-stricken crowds surging through the streets toward | the open country; the railroad depots munitions dumps were blown up, and Several fires were seen to break out jin the ‘barracks. and. military ware- | uses.” eithe seadrille kobbandtur would | be grieved beyond measure could he but walk through ‘the streets tonight and-inventory the net results and see \the effect produced on the population, He who is now houseless shrugs_his shoulders and says, ‘C'est le Guerre,’ and once more the) peaceful stars shine down tranquilly- on the silent streets." ——ary wes. s ‘U.S: TO SEND NO.

The military intervention plan chis been flatly rejected by President Wil- son. “He and. his advisers believe it into the western part of Russia in any considerable numbers, or to maintain communication and support ‘for them: The only use of American troops in Russia ,in the plan of President Wilson, is such use as thé marines have fot many years been employed in; that is, for landing parties and for guarding American property and the lives of American citizens.: There are few Americans now in Russia, but there is much American property and shipments for_‘ “Which payment. never was received. — There. is a port on thé Arctic ocean called Romanoff, which is free of ise the year around, At this. port are thousands of tons. of American merchandise.
