There IS cross "a cross of iron,
The gift of an iron hand.
Who wears it over his iron heart.
He must relentlessly do his part
For the sake of the Fatherland,
And deal, with bullet and bayonet thrust,
Death and despair alas! he must!
There is another cross; it is
Simply cross of red.
Who wears it knows neither friend nor foe,
But pity only and to and fro
In the wake of the carnage dread,
He is swift to carry relief from pain,
And, to the tortured strength again.
Working to save, salvation's own
Sign he may fairly don.
The bursting shells and the shrapnel dust
Fall all unheeded; if die he must,
He will debut his work live on;
He is tender, tireless, none more brave;
Fighting always-to cheat the grave.
If it is true day is due
When reckoning shall be made,
Who then will face the tribunal dread,
Among the ranks of the risen dead,
Calm, steadfast, and unafraid?
In the dawn of that Resurrection Morn,
Which cross then will be proudly worn?

ing the passage Of the bill, the Presi-
dent called the attention Of Congress
to the "pernicious and insidlous lob

Reed acted as chief inqulsitor for the
committee and established nation
wide reputation for the character Of
his examination Of the witnesses,
forcing them to reveal their activities
and thereby sustaining the position
which the President had taken In
making his charges.
Four years ago, In the national cam.
