Hu ex- Ambassador to China, could tell an interesting story of how he got the Silver Star citation which so proudly adorns his chest. It was awarded for “gallantry in action on Nov. 11, 1918, in voluntarily making a reconnaissange under heavy enemy fire.” Nov. 11, 1918, of course, was Armistice Day, and everyone knew on that fateful morning the war was coming to an irre- is entitled rehabilitation which may extend over four years.

E. St. Greble to watch the historic end of the war. They were about 2,000 yards be- hind the lines when Lt. Col. Wilbur Rogers of the 77th Field Artillery stopped them and told them the show was over. But they were bent | more, on going forward anyway. ! Seven months after the war was over, on June 3, 1919, Hurley mys- teriously received a Silver Star citation for “voluntarily making a reconnaissance under heavy enemy fire on Nov. 11, 1918.” Regardless of any other facts in the citation, the trip obviously was “voluntary.” The Sanity Court of the District of Columbia, Case No. 16988, shows !that E. St. J. Greble was adjudged insane Jan. 13, 1936, and committed to St. Elizabeth’s Asylum. Some State Department officials now wisecrack that they wish his former comrade-in-arms was with him in- stead of now badgering them in the Senate Foreign Relations Com- mittee. ! BILBO LOVES PERS The story being that Mississippi's Senator Bilbo actually paid to have his office picketed by a wounded war veteran Whether true or not, it is a fact that the Mississippi filibusterer al- ways has thrived on persecution. He was in jail on a contempt of court charge when he first began hi campaign for the Senate. It made him a martyr. Since then, Bilbo has always capitalized on the at- tacks against him. He is now claim- ing a Northern conspiracy to dic- tate to the State of Mississippi whom it should send to the Senate That's why it's rumored that he paid the veteran to picket his office so he could pull the persecution charge again. (Note—Meanwhile, various anti- Bilbo candidates are on the horizon, latest being Lt. Comdr. Nelson Levings, only naval officer from Mississippi who served on the Battleship U.S. Mississippi.
