The starry flag waves greeting
To Freedoms natal day.
II ripples out with glory
Wherever breezes play;
1t floats in stately beauty
Mid arctic ice and snow
Through all the zones it flutters
And gems the tropic glow
The eagle screams in triumph
Its welcome to the day
And spreads its wings exultant
Where liberty holds sway.
From ocean unto ocean
And far beyond the seas
Its notes of shrill defiance
Are borne by every breeze.
The orators are telling
The slories of the land
That at the front of nations
Now boldly makes its stand,
And eloquent are tributes
They to their country pay
And rousins are the plaudits
On Freedoms natal day.
From early dawn till midnight
There's constant jubilee
Through all the broad dominions
That spread from sea to sea.
For It's on this occasion
All patriots are gay
And join in celebration

CAPERT0N RUSHES
MARINES TO HAITI
Admiral Believed to Have Sailed,
Although Department Has
No Word.

Washington, June 23.-Although navy
officials were confident tonight that
Admiral Caperton, on his flagship, the
cruiser Washington, was on his way
from Vera Cruz to Cape Haytien, no
word had come at midnight acknowl-
edging receipt of orders sent him yes
terday to proceed to the Haytien port.
1t was explained at the Navy De-
partment that cable communication
with Vera Cruz was slow, and that a
storm prevailing off the Gulf Of Mex
leo probably had made 1t impossible
for the admiral to report by wireless.
The Washington carries 500 blue
Jackets and 200 marines available for
shore duty. 1t is expected that a con-
siderable force will be landed immed-
lately upon the cruisers arrival at Cape
Haytien, to relieve French marines who
have been guarding foreign interests
there since last week.
No reports have been received In the
last few days about conditions in Haiti.
Since the overthrow of President Sam s
government, however, the affairs OF the
little republic have been in an unsettled
state, and fears have been entertained
for the safety of Americans and other
foreigners.

ther;
"The report was made by the coast

message received from Captain Garden

Whitney's steering gear was disabled

saying they were effecting repairs by
their own forces"
The Tribune's correspondent at New
London could learn nothing Of the

nothing of any trouble.
At Pier 10, North River, II was said

due in New York, not Portland. The
captain, the custodian said, had said

George, the Minister Of Munitions. has
given British labor seven days in which
to make good the promise of its lead
ers that men will rally to the factories

This was the most striking statement
in the new minister's speech In the

of outlining the munitions measure,
which is designed to control not only
the output but the men responsible for
the output. The first of the seven al
lotted days will begin tomorrow. and
with it's dawning will be launched a
great campaign to recruit the workers.

the men needed in seven days. IL we
cannot get them we will admit that our
case is considerably weakened

"The seven days will begin to-mor-
row." continued Mr.. Lloyd George.
"and advertisements will appear in all
the papers. The union representatives
have engaged l80 town halls as recruit
ing offices and the assistance Of every
one has been invited"
There will be no age limit for the
men enrolled. They will not wear uni
forms. but they will have to give their
full time to the work, and they will re-
ceiye a certificate attesting that they
are working for King and country.
The munitions bill makes strikes and
lockouts illegal, provides for COM
pulsory arbitration, limits the profits
OF employers, creates a voluntary army
OF workmen pledged 10 go wherever
they are wanted, and contains other
clauses which will give the minister
