I AMERICAN MILITARY j Finds All Hula Girls in NTork! WILSON'S PRINCIPLES
CROSSES ARE AWARDED
First of New Medals Presented
Lieut. Green, Sergt. Nor
ton and Sergt. Walsh.
With the American Army in France,
Tuesday, March 19. (By the Asso
ciated Press.) Gen. Pershing, the
American commander-in-chief, has ap
proved the awarding of the first new
American military crosses for extra
ordinary heroism. The recipients are
Lieut. John 0. Green, Sergt. William
Norton and Sergt. Patrick Walsh.
Lieut. Green and Sergt s. Norton
and Walsh all" have received the
French war cross, Norton and Walsh
being decorated personally by Premier
Clemenceau on March 3.
Lieut Green, an artillery officer, was,
wounaea Dy sneii lire early in March.
Sergt. Norton, a veteran in service,
formerly resided in Arkansas. He was
decorated by Premier Clemenceau for
his act in killing a German lieutenant
and tWo German soldiers. Ho was
challenged by the lieutenant to leave
his dugout and led out his men flght-
lngj
Sergt. Walsh, formerly of Chi
cago, also is a regular army veteran.
His French decoration was received
for heroism in the Toul sector. He
took command ot a detachment in
front of the American entanglements
when his captain was killed and con
tinued the fight. Sergt. Walsh was
selected by Gen. Perrthrng to act as
orderly to Secretary Baker during his
present visit to the American army in
France.
The crosses were swarded for "ex
traordinary heroism In connection with
military operations against an armed
enemy."
Lieut. Green probably will stand on
the records as the first to receive the
honor, tor his name is first on the list
of three approved by the commander-in-chief.
The exploits of these men
are described by the general command
ing their division as follows":
Heroio Feat Described.
"I recommend that the distinguished
service cross be awarded to the officer
and men named hereafter who dis
tinguished themselves by acts ot extra
ordinary heroism.
Lieut. Green, while in a dugout.
having been wounded by an enemy
hand grenade, was summoned to sur
render. He refused to do so. Return
ing the Are of the enemy, he wounded
one and pursued the hostile party.
Sergt Norton, finding . himself
in a dugout surrounded by the enemy.
Into which a grenade had Just been
thrown, refused to surrender and made
a bold dnsh outside, killing one of Ms
assailants. By so doing he saved the
company's log book.
Sergt. alsh followed Ms com
pany to the first line in spite of a se
vere barrage. The captain being killed,
he assumed command of the group and
attacked a superior force of the enemy,
inflicting severe loss upon thrm.
Though of advanced age, he refused to
leave the front."
Pershing Gives Approval.
To those recoinondntlons Gon. Persh
ing appended the' following:
The commanrler-tn-chlef approves
the recomcndatlon for awards of dis
tinguished service ci'OHBes. They are
not on hand at present, but will tie for
warded when received and will bp. pre
sented to you in the name of the com
mander-in-chief with suitable ceremony."

FEARS COMPLICATION
IF JAPAN INTERVENES
J. Hamilton Lewis Says Citizen
ship Demand Might Em
barrass Allies.
(New York Times.)
United States Senator James Ham
ilton Iewis, of Illinois, npenklag nt
the 184th annual dinner of the St.
Patrick's Society of New York, in the
grand ballroom of the Hotel Astor,
last night in a reference to the situa
tion In the far east, which may lead
to Japanese intervention in Siberia,
declared that in the event this coun
try adopted closer relations with Ja
pan and as a rnsmlt benefited from
any service Japan might render In the
Asiatic world, , the United States
would be plnced under obligation
which would compel the government
at Washington to listen "to any griev
ance flint these friendly Asiatic people
may have ngnlnst any policy of ours,"
and In the, event Japan demands of
Kngland, her ally, and Kvnnco support
of a demand that America grant cltl
senshlp privileges to Asiatics, those
countries, to say the least, will find
themselves in a. very embarrassing
position. A failure on the part of
Great Britain or France tn Join Japan
In such a request, he ndded, would
threaten the friendly relations exlst
tntr between Japan and the French
and British.
NOTED IN DECLARATION
i "
Inter-Allied Conference Draws
Distinction Between Bolshe
vik! and Russian People.
Paris, Monday, March 18. In official
circlee here it was pointed out today
that the declaration Issued In connee
lion witn last ween s interallied con
ference in London concerne merely
European terirtonal questions and
hence it waa logical that the United
States and Japan, although fully in
formed and in entire sympathy with
the statements made, should not have
taken formal .part in the issuance of
the declaration. A competent author
ity said to the Associatsd Prent
'The declaration fully expresses the
democratic principles formulated In
President Wilson's message, notably as
regards the right of people to dispose
of themselves. It marks the will of
the allies that peace shull not be
founded on any basis other than re
spect for the right. It deals out Jus
tice to the hypocritical procedure of
Germany, which makes a pretense of
conforming to( American Ideals.
Draw Line of Distinction.
"The declaration Is unmtatnkeahly
vigorous as regards the Hrest-Lltovslt
peace agreement, condemning it as null
and void and refusing recognition of
any similar treaties which may follow,
as. for Instance, with Kumanlo. It
emphasizes the point that, the central
powers are determined to dismember
Polntvl whlln the allies give Poland the
assurance that their victory means her
liberation, the restoration of her inde
pendence. "The declaration denounces 'clearly
and caiegorlcally the bolshevik blunder
in putting faith in Germany's words
concerning peace without anexntlons
or indemnities. It shows that, the al
lies regard the Busslsn people as
friends, drawing a distinction between
the people and the bolshevik! and thnt
they firmly intend to save ltussla in
spite of herself."
