LONDON, Aug. 30.-London
was again moved to admiration
of America and Of President Will
son today alter reading the presi-
dents note TO Pope Benedict.
More than one newspaper hail
ed the American president as the
new leader of the allied cause.
AT the end of three years of
unspeakable strain and anxiety,
declared the Morning Post, lit is
an inestimaDle service to the al
lied armies to find such leader
ship as this strong, clear-sighted,
inflexible, inspiring new courage
and faith. shaming the faint
hearted and silencing the per-
verse and disaifected.
The Chronicle pointed out that
President Wilson had reminded
the world that America was un-
fettered by alliances in subject
ing the Paris resolution of the
allies to unqualified condemna-
ton" (This was the resolution
the allies to commercial
reprisals against Germany after
the war;

House, of the reality of right and

as a result of President Wilson's
reply to the pope, or at least two
more years of war-that is the
prospect ahead.
The United States is going
ahead with war preparations. 1t
will not waver until the German
people have stripped the kaiser of
his autocratic powers.
Military men believe there is a
chance of peace in the presidents
note. They point out that Ger

cracking under the strain" and
they believe the liberals will
force a reconstruction of the
German government.
Might Lead To Peace.
1t will be up to Germanys
leaders to decide whether to
fight on or to accept peace now.
President Wilson has declared
against dismemberment of en-
pires and against post bellum
trade wars. The German people
for the first time can realize that
the war against her is not mer-
cenary or aggressive.
Should she decide there is no
peace chance now or that her
arms can ultimately triumph,
then she will fight on for a year
or two more. BY that time,
Americas strength will be felt in

He flung up his hands In an
angry gesture.
What l tell the polls, say, IF
you want to take Paul, all right,
you take him; got nothing to
say. But If you take him, you
keep him!
Says Use Broom.
Those polls come round my
house-every day he come, look
in the house, don't say nothing.

Then he run away.
why he run away? Oh, to a
child so long is a whole life!
Il ask him why he steal things.
and he says some things he steal
and sell because he must eat.
Sure he must eat when he amt
home. And some things he says,
oh, | don't know; | just have to
take them You see, it was just
play. Boys are so.

Mrs. Levine had left her load

pale face strained with the effort
to understand, and her eyes heavy
and haunted.

Another "Promise."
Secretary of State Lansing did
not see today in Germany's con-
cessions to Argentina anything
particularly significant. Hotpoint
ed out the Germans made such
promises to America-only to
break them later.
Others, however, thought Ger
many saw the handwriting on the
wall and was easing up on her
U-boat campaign so as to get
some moral and material support
from this hemisphere.
That she is looking to trade
after the war is considered obvi-
Gus.
Russia, despite her enormous
struggle to keep weakening forces
in line, is heartened by the presi-
dents note, which, diplomats
feel, makes Russia and the Unit
ed States virtual arbiters of peace.
Ends Separate Peace Talk.
The answer, 1t is felt, may
crush the last traces of separate
peace talk in Russia.
Meantime allied diplomats gave
their word that their nations
agree with President Wilson as
to abandonment of ideas of post
bellum trade war. Observers saw
in Wilson's expression a notice
to Germany that she will get a
fair trade deal after the war

The Times declared that the
note is couched in the same terms
in which all other statesmen of
allied powers must reply to the
peace note.
The only feeble note of differ
ence with the presidents doctrine
was sounded in the Northcliffe
newspapers.
Plain Language.
They agreed with every feature
of the reply except President
Wilson's "acquittal of the Ger
man people from any responsible
ity for the war"
The Northcliffe editorials point
ed out this was Incompatible

And the blood profiteers have
not even been willing to let their

there are more strikes in the

Is IL to be wondered at that

NEW YORK, Aug. 3d.
Two million New Workers in
whiriwind of patriotic
frenzy, shouted farewell to-
day 10 $1,000 khaki-ciad
men OF the 25th division,
comprising national guard
units, marching down Fifth
avenue.
The historic avenue was a riot
out blaze of color.
The standards of the allies
Stars and Stripes predominating
waved from every window.
And banked on both sides OF
the broad street, hanging from
building lodges. massing atop OF
rofs, clustering in overcrowded
grandstands, the greatest outpour-
ing of people New York had ever
seen greeted the marching col
umns.
Cheers Drown Bands.
Old and young men, women and
children packed subways to suf-
location, overtaxed every artery
of transit in mad rush to claim
points of vantage along Fifth ave-
nue.. Difference was paid to rela-
tives of the marching men, who
were supplied with special iden-
tifying badges.
Mai. Gen. Ryan led the march
thru a broad lane, walled with
cheering humanity. The roar at
times almost drowned out the
bands.
Here and there a woman dart
ed from the crowd and marched
\ short distance beside her boy
in the ranks.
Groups of little girls threw
flowers at the feet of the troops.
Five Hours Long.
It took five hours for the
grand review to pass a given
point. Every branch of the SER
vice, except aviation, was repre-
sented.
Gov. whitman, Mayor Mitchell
and other officials reviewed the
parade at the Union League club.
Civil war veterans and other
honored guests occupied grand
stand in front of the public
library.
Big Oity Celebrates.
IL was a virtual holiday in the
worlds greatest city. All princi-
pal stores were closed. The stock
market closed at noon and the
entire town did honor to the boys
who will soon be battling for de-
mocracy in France.
As the parade was in full
swing, the kaiser might have read
a part of the answer to autoc-
racy's arrogance in five solid
miles of bayonets glittering in the
sunlight, FURNISHED field guns and
dashing cavalry.
River of Steel.
Looking northward from the
reviewing stand at Forty-seeond
street, the impression was OF
viewing " flowing river of steel.
With every man marching with
fixed bayonet, the lines extending
from curb to curb and the steady
undulation of men in motion, the
picture presented one Of the most
inspiring martial views ever wit
messed in New York.
While the parade was the great.
est demonstration New York evel
saw-exceeding even the Dewey
welcome or other stirring scenes
of Spanish war days-it was evi
dent that the crowd was giving it
cheers with full appreciation o
what the appearance of thes
thousands of men in war ARA
meant.
Much Sadness, Too.
