CALLS LIBERTY
BELL RINGER
Philadelphia Historian Declares
Cherished Traditions Are Fiction.
Never Changed for Liberty.

Philadelphia, July 4-Uncle Sam is
writing in mental agony to-day because
his most cherished tradition that the IA
nous Liberty Bell in Philadelphia, which
sounded the death kneI Of English rule
in America and rang forth at the signing
Of the Declaration Of Independence, has
been ruthlessly and unfeellngly shat
| tered.
The bell never peaIed forth a liberty
note in its entire existence. It's a plain
ordinary ringer, enjoying a fame a gull
lible public has been easily swayed into
giving it. Our forefathers thought so lit
tie Of the time-honored article that they
once offered to trade it for a clock.
This is the baleful news conveyed to
Uncle Sam and his family to-day by a
usually sympathetic and good naturcd
historian, Joseph Jackson, OF Philadsl-
phia- The story Of the Liberty RelI is
fine piece Of fiction, he declares. Credit
for weaving the yarn about the bell is
given to George Lippard. fiction writer,
whose works were the rage in great
great-grsndfather's time
The world always has believed the biz
crack in the famous bell occurred while
II was ringing forth in Joyful celebra-
ton Of the anniversary of Independence
Day. This is not fiction, Mr.. Jackson
states It cracked when being runE at
the death OF Chief Justice Marshall
N 1s5S
Half century after the signing Of the
Declaration OF Independence the historic
bell tollsd its first note OF freedom. The
bell now rests in a glass case in indie
pendence Hall, where 10000 pilgrims an
nually view It. In the days when IT
was taken to different parts of the coun-
try, where patriotic celebrations were in
progress, It was accompanied by a
guard Of honor.
Mr.. Jackson said the truth should be
known. In none Of the records can any
suggestion Of the bell ringing for indie
pendence be found, he says. As late IS
1879 the councils OF Philadelphia offered
to trade the bell as part payment for a
clock. And-oh, the irony Of 1.-THE
clockmaker refused to accept the bell
because he said it was a piece of Junk.
Is it any wonder, then, that Uncle Sam
is spending the saddest Fourth Of July
in his 126 years?
