The absolute satisfaction of President
| elect Wilson with all of the details of the
inaugural ceremonies as planned by the
inaugural committee was expressed yes
terday by Col. Thomas H. Burch. per-
sonal aid to Gov. Wilson. who has acted
| as his mouthpiece in the arrangement Of
the plans for March, l.
Col Burch. who Is a large manufacturer
of Burlington, N. j., and has watched the
effect Of the Governors administration on
business for two years, laughs at the idea
that the coming Inauguration is a threat
to business interests.
In an interview concerning the plans OF
the inaugural committee. Col. Burch said
yesterday:
Il have been more than pleased and
delighted with the reception have had
In Washington. and the earpestness of
the greeting extended to me In my Of
icial capacity as aid to Gov. Wilson.
All of the arrangements of the joint
Congressional committee and the inau-
gura committee ere SO perfect in their
consideration of detail and have been
so carefully made as TO leave no oppor-
tunity for suggestion or criticism. I
have been particularly struck by the en-
tire sympathy with Gov. Wilson's ideas
as indicated by the plans formulated by
Mai. Gen. Leonard Wood for the pae-
cant OF March 4 and the hearty spirit
Of cooperation which has been manifest
at all times. The police programme as
outlined by Maj. Sylvester, is character
istic OF wha. We In New Jersey would
consider not only essentially Democratic,
but the standard of effectiveness. The
plans for the Wilson Inauguration, as
completed. are distinctive OF the dignity
of thought and simplicity of execution,
which are in concordance with the Will
sonian idea of Democracy. and illumina-
tive as a forerunner of an administration
which will be the embodiment of that
sanity Of thought and breadth of vision
which characterized the immortal Jeffer-
son. Gov. Wilson's accomplishments In
New Jersey are now being applauded
throughout the lergth and breadth OF the
land. and his Inauguration as President
will mark the beginning Of sympathetic
application to the nation itself OF the
constructive policies which have regen-
Grated New Jersey"
Jackies In Parade.
One thousand jolly jacktars will form
picturesque division Of the inaugural
parade. The sailors will be selected from
the crews Of the battleships Delaware
and Kansas. the Presidents yacht May
flower, and other nearby ships. The
regiment will be commanded by Com
mander NJ. A. McCully. OF the May
flower.
Should the trouble in Mexico demand
these jackies they will be able to report
hastily. as they are to parade In heavy
marching order. The regiment will be
headed by a band OF 1ss pieces of the
IL "a
best feature OF their participation in the
parade to the jackies is found in the fact
that they are to be given a chance to
see the sights of the National Capital
and allowed liberty until the night OF
March 8.
A concealed gate has been placed under
the reviewing stand, through which the
new President will descend to his car
riage and return to the White House
without passing the crowd on the stand.
This will greatly facilitate the process
sion, but will have the effect Of a mys-
terious disappearance to the mass Of
humanity packed in the plaza
While President Taft and his sue
cessor are riding through the throngs of
citizens and the stands. gay with bunting
and humanity, a quieter scene will be
enacteS at the White House. where Mrs.
Taft and her family will be bidding fare
well to the attaches and giving last in
structions for the welcome TO the Will
sons. With the splendid courtesy that
has characterized the Tafts, the incom-
ing Presidential family will find every
possible arrangement for their comfort
and easy entrance has been planned. 4
bountiful luncheon will be ready when
the happy family come to their new
home and from attic TO cellar the his
toric mansion will be spic and span.
Ia. l-Ns
to each of the precinct captains calling
their attention to the special police regu-
lations that will be in force during in
auguration week, and urging special
watch be made for all suspicious per-
sons.
