GO TO THE | attain MISSING IN ACTION LIST BEING REDUCED 500 or 600 More Americans Will Probably Be Found in Hospitals Washington, May 10.—Analys of French and British officlal reports on the army casualty records during the war is considered by officers here as showing that the system built up in | the Awmerican expeditionary forces and the war department compare favorably with the achievements of the other two powers. The average time required to notify relatives in the United States that been killed or seriously wounded was 29 days, despite the 3,000 mile di tance from France and congested cables. The French required from two to four weks with their army fighting on French soil, and did not that speed until 1916 after many changes of .method. The Bri ish with only the channel separating them from the fighting zone, required five weeks time which average was not reached until 1917 after three years of expericnce. The American em was working smoothly on the day average seven months after Are Lost. The same difficulties in handling casualties beset the military authori- ties in every army. In one that station of a regimental person- nel adjutant was demolished by a shell with the complete loss of 2,800 cas- ualty records of which there were no duplicates. At the hospitals wound- a former unit overlooking a recent | transfer to some other organization. Often the identity of the , wounded | had to be taken from documents they carried which were not up to date and did not give the organizations to which they were then attached. Finding Missing Men. Reports in the war show that at the stice the American forces had 16,000 men rated as missing in action, exclu- sive of known prisoners of war. The British list was 161,000 and the French 290,060, February 1, 1919, the American missing list had been reduced to 8,071 and by March 1 to 00. Tt is expected that when the French finish checking up French | hospital records, 500 or 600 more will be taken from the American missing list as having been located throug the French hospital where {hey were treated. These records probably will not be available before next fall. SINN FEIN LEADER ASSAILS ENGLAND Proi. Edward De Valera Declares That Ircland Will Never Be Cheated By England Dublin, May 9.—At a special ses- sion of the Sinn Fein parliament held today a reception was accorded the delegates from the Trish societies in America. Prof. Edward De Valera, the Sinn Fein leader declared that ‘“Ireland will never be cheated by England,” and expressed cordial thanks to the delegates for “coming to defend the right.” In welcoming the Americans, Prof. De Valera said he regretted that the | short time they would stay in Ireland would not permit meeting represen- tative Irishmen differing with the Sinn Feiners. He sald that they would find that “except for the unionists a substantial unanimity exists in Ire- Jand” and that “‘the English press had distorted insignificant differences.” He complained that Irishmen who had fought during the war had done o trusting in the promises of the English. Frank P. Walsh was glven a great reception when he rose to speak. He declared America denied the claim that the Irish question was not an in- fernational one. Former Governor Dunne said that the general election recently held had proved that three- fourths of Ireland demanded the cre- ation of a republic.

Friday of this week is to be class day at the High school and announce- ment has been made by two of the c ses as to their method of observ- ing the day. It is expected that the other classes will carry out their & s along similar follows: Fresh- man class boys, pink Windsor ties and pink socks); junior class 'boys, blue Windsor ties and blue socks. The other two classes will probably choose a color and wear socks and tles of that ' shade. The young women of the classes have not announced their plans for the day as yet. This is the first time in tory of the school that the for all classes has been on the same day. In the past it nas been customary to have all plans laid in secret and none but the mem- bers of the class knew upon what day the observance was to be held nor the nature of the observance, Many freakish costumes and no small amount of trouble resulted from this practice, and the authori have thought it best to follow out a differ- ent plan this year.
