DOINGS OF THE DUFFS
SPAIN THE WAR
PUZZLE OF EUROPE
Dondon, Oct." 5. 'Spain's en
trance into the war against Germany
would have several important. and far
reaching . effects, in the opinion of a
high official at the American embassy
in London. .
He outlined some of them for the
Newspaper-Enterprise Association to
day a3 follows:
1 Spanish ports would no longer be
a refuge for U-boats that . find them;
selves in danger from allied warcraft.
2 The shores of Spain would af
ford new, valuable bases for allied op
erations against the U-boats.
3 The German mark would take a
new drop.
4 The allied blockade of Germany
would be tightened.
5 German agents and propagandists
would be deprived of one more field
for their pernicious work.
$ The action of Spain (and this the
official regarded as especially import
ant) -would be likely to be reflected in
.certain South American countries, to
the Immense advantage of-the allies
Argentina would be particularly af
fected, as it has already severed dip
lomatic relations with Germany as a
result of the Luxburg exposures.
STANDARD SUITS ARE
SLOW IN APPEARING
London, Oct. 5. "Where are the
$13.80 standard suits for men?" the
London papers are demanding. These
standard suits were announced long
ago, but nobody has - seen one yet.
More urgent war work. Is the govern
ment's answer. When they arrive, the
standard suits will be in two dozen va
rieties of, grays and browns."

the War Relic train, In the interest of
uie iiDeriy uoan.
Sergeant Vinclair does not speak
English but when seen at tne Army
and Navy Club Saturday morning,
talked of the war most interestingly,
Mrs. C. F. Zeek kindly acting as inter
preter. Mrs. Zeek, who is of French descent,
is not only highly cultured, but .well
informed as to the present war situa
tion, and found her conversation with
this distinguished soldier of France
most interesting, and very courteously
interpreted much of the information
for a representative of The Journal,
who was present at me time.
Sergeant Vinclair arrived in, Pensa
cola some hours ahead of his com
panions on the tour, owing to the ill
ness of one of the men in the party.
Monsieur D'Orr, who Yas compelled to
enter a hospital in Atlanta for treat
ment. He arrived from Atlanta last
Oight, joining the party here today, the
members of which had stopped for
lunch in Pensacola.
Sergeant Vinclair, who is the only
member of the party who speaks
French, has been with the members
en tour since September 18. He ar
rived in New York early in September
on sick leave, and is one of tne many
noted Fflench leaders "who are engag
ed in the Liberty Loon drive in this
country.
Wearing the olive drab of the Army
of France, on the table beside him was
the bright crimson cap, worn by him
for many years in the French reel
ment, but discarded since the open-

ing of the present war, for the regula
tion helmet. On his breast were live
war decorations and the insignia of his
regiment, a heavy crimson euro, was
worn over the left shoulder.
Among the decorations of Sergeant
Vinclair was the Medaille Militaire,
the highest honor that the French
republic can confer. These medals are
given only for most distinguished ser
vice. General Joffre and General
Bayou both wear these decorations,
and Pensacola is proud of the fact that
Captain Frederick Blount is among tne
few American officers, having previ
ously served in the French army, who
wear one of these decorations.
The Croix de Guerre is also worn
by Sergeant Vinclair and decorations
of gold braid on the sleeves of his uni
form indicate that he was wounded
seriously four times and has served
on the French front for three years.
Sergeant Vinclair has been in the
French army for seventeen years. . In
addition to the medals which attest
his heroism in the present war, he
wears two that were awarded him in
previews campaigns, one the colonial
medal, awarded him for bravery in
campaigns in Sahara, Tonkin and Mo
rocco. Another interesting medal
awarded prior to the present war is
one given him by the government of
Morocco.
Sergeant Vinclair was wounded five
times in the Dardanelles and twice in
Serbia, and while his fine bronzed
countenance speaks of his outdoor life,
she has fallen off fifty -four pounds
during the present campaign, and was
sent to this country to recuperate.
