Commission recently named by Mayor |

IS rapidly as possible.
John Aleigs, noted harbor engineer /
and formerly director of wharves and /
docks of Philadelphia, made a lengthy I
report on "Port Plans for Wilmington I
in which he pointed out how the pro-
iect could be carried out that would |
make Wilmington a seaport aity of the !
first importance. Mr.. Meigs as an engi /
neering expert, has made an elaborate
study of the local situation for the
Chamber of Commerce, and has prepared
plans showing what can be done easily
in the way of building terminals on the
Delaware river. He suggested several
plans under which the project could be
put through. His address was illus
trated with lantern slides, showing
some of the most important harbors of
the world. He also showed on the screen
diagrams which he has prepared of pros
pective port developments along the
Delaware river. One of the plausible
propositions, Mr.. Meigs pointed out,
would be the development of that sec
ton of the river front from the Lob
dell plant to Pigeon Point south Of the
Christiana, with the development from
the Christiana river to Edge Moor 10
come later.
The banquet was held in the green
room and was attended by about two
hundred persons. Much interest was
centered in the address of Mr. Grace,
who, although a comparatively young
man is at the head of one of the larg-
est corporations in the country, of which
the Harlan and Hollingsworth Corpora
ton, Of this city, is a subsidiary. His
address and that of Mr. Meigs were fol-
lowed closely by the two hundred busi-
ness and professional men present.
At Speakers Table
William B. Megear, president Of the
Chamber of Commerce, was the presid-
ing officer. and former Governor Charles
B. Miller was toastmaster. After the
two principal addresses there were re-
marks by Mayor James f. Price and
Charles Warner, president of the new
Wilmington Harbor Commission, both of
whom predicted the successful carrying
out Of the port PROJECT within short
time. Willard A. Speakman, another
member Of the harbor commission. was
among the guests. James p. Winches-
ter. the third member of the commits
sion. was unable TO be present because
Of an engagement made some time ago.

He spoke of the great demand for
boats and said this country is not

future than ever before but was also

that are under way there, but, Of

people in Washington are taking the
situation seriously and are going at

dustries which in the early stages
saved the British Empire, namely the
Bethlehem Steel Corporation, the du-
Pont Powder Company and Morgan and
Company. Mr.. Grace laughingly re-
marked: my friend Colonel Buci
ner in telling this story always puts
the DUPONT Company iirst."
Mr.. Grace said certain extensions
are contemplated for the Harlan and
Hollingsworth Corporation and that
1t will be necessary for his company
to extend all it's plants. At this point
Mr.. Grace said he had been asked
during the evening II this country
could build two million tons OF ship
ing in two years 81 replied, Yes and
you can multiply that by two and a.
half.' In combustion he said he
hoped the project would be started at
once to make Wilmington a perma-
nent seaboard city.

Charles Warner, chairman Of this

speaker. He said the meeting had
been very encouraging to him. H'

said that II he could get a patriotic song
adapted to THE Presidents March" he
did not doubt of full house: that the
poets OF the theatrical corps had been
trying to accomplish 1t. but had not sue.
ceeded told him that I would try what
I could do for him. He came the next
afternoon. and the song. such as It Is,
was ready for him. Such Is the history
of the song. which has endured infinitely
beyond the expectation OF the author.
The song met with immediate sue
cess and was repeated again and again,
being named "New Federal Song" and
no entertainment of the day was con-
sidered complete without 1t.
To run down the history of the mu-
sic of "Hall Columbia" written orig
inally as the presidents March," Mr..
Sonneck found much more difficult
task than giving the plain narrative
of the applied words. Wading through
an immense amount of historical data
and some controversy upon the sub
ject, he has brought out facts which
he would only put forth after the most
careful process Of sitting and deduc-
ton.
a "IJntil recently" he said, "the musi-
cal origin of Hail Columbia was as
obscure MS Its literary history was
clear" But. weighing all the evidence
in the case. he carefully sets down
the fact that the presidents March,"
which supplied the music for Hail Co
lumbia," was composed by Philip Phile.
n resident of Philadelphia, of perhaps
German or Swiss origin, and musician
and instructor Of note. (His name Is
usually spelled incorrectly; the above
is the correct spelling.)

tains no mysterious history. It was
