Chief Executive Welcomed Into Manchester by Crowds Which Confer Freedom of City on American Visitor
Audiences Absorb His Utter ances Understandingly; Party Inspects Inland Docks Where Shipping Cheers

MANCHESTER, Dec 90, CBy the Associated Press. )-The people os Manchester made President Wilson a freeman of their city today They did more than that; they made him at home
 It seemed as though all the men, wo- men and children of the town, ana many from Lancashire-at-large cheer ed the president at some stage of the crowded five hours in which he made a sort of democratic royal progress from one point of interest to another, which was strenuous enough and vast enough to exhaust even the hardest campaigners.
 The general atmosphere was inti- mate and friendly; often the people got near enough to shake hands. Even the ceremony of conferring the free dom of the city had g tone of homely simplicity and seemed more like a col lege commencement than a formally staged ritual. The assembly sang For He's a Jolly Good Fellow" which could hardly have occurred at a state banquet in the Guild hall.
 Open Largest Hall
 It was a happy inspiration that led the aldermen to throw open the larg- est hall in the city, instead of follow ing custom by holding the ceremony in the municipal chamber This by no means reduced the effect of the important speech the president de- livered.
 His most important pronOuncement, perhaps, to Englishmen, which he has made in England, that the United States would make no covenant with any powers except one with all the powers, was not lost upon his hearers. No other audience during his Euro pean appearances has absorbed the presidents utterances so eagerly, so understandingly, and has so quickly responded to every point No other audience has resembled so noticeably the character and types of people to whom the president has been ac- customed to speak at home.
 Perhaps this was because Lancash- ire has contributed so many citizens to the United States and has such close industrial connections and fol- lows American affairs with keener in- terest than most English counties.
 Greeted at Inland Docks
 The first item in the days program was drive to the famous docks which have made Manchester an inland port. Here the shipping extended a beflag- ged and vociferous greeting to the president, while the workmen from all the big warehouses and factories around hung from the windows and stood on the roofs. Part of the drive was through the poorer districts, where a few of the children were too poor even to have bought American flags to wave.
 Later the president made a brief appreciative speech from the balcony of the Royal exchange.
 Finally he took lunch with 200 prominent men in the Midland hotel, where he made an acknowledgment of Manchester's hospitality.
 Only the weather was unfriendly to- day It was gray and thick, with in tervals of rain, but that is typical of the season in the midlands, and it kept nobody indoors. Merchants workmen, farmers, soldiers, with countless thousands of women and children stood in the streets and rush ed from point to point for a glimpse

Former U. S. Army Post
Advocated to Become
Reconstruction Hospital

! HELENA, Mont, Nov. 16.-Need
of a vocational rehabilitation institu-
tion in Montana, where permanently
crippled workmen of this state could
be refitted for earning a livelihood,
lis urged by A. z. Spriggs, chairman of
the State Industrial Accident Board.
in the third annual report of the
board recently issued here. He sug-
gests that Fort Harrison of Fort Mis-
soula. former government army posts
i'm this state, would make admira BILE
Locations for such an institution, and
he suggests that the matter be taken
up with the Federal government with
a view to obtaining the use of one of
them.
In Montana during the past three
years, the report states. there have
been more than 10000 Industrial ac-
cidents, in which 474 victims were
permanently crippled. OF this num-
Der, it is declared, less than one
fourth are now doing anything tow
ards making a living. The others are
living on their monthly compensation,
which in no event continues more
than four years.
Mr.. Spriggs estimates that the nom
productive cripples could earn at least
a dollar day If properly trained.
which, with the $lOO a year that each
costs the state. would net the state a
gain of 100000 year. He believes
this could be effected with an invest
ment of one third that amount. Should
the taxpayers hesitate to make the ne
appropriation, he says. the en-
ployers of the commonwealth could |
well afford to make the investment.

the historic phrases of America The
following appears in the Congression-

THE first clase, I believe in the

Y. M. C. "A. In ITALY
CHANGES TO S. F. U.

The Y. NJ. G. a. in italy, as every
where else. has asserted itself in a
most splendid and generous manner.
While the Red Triangle, known the
world over as the sign of brother
hood is much in evidence in the
Italian war zone, the four letters,
''Y. NJ. C. A." are nowhere to be seen.
The reason given for this is that the
italians, in general. are opposed to
any organization of a public nature
which is controlled by a religious or
sectarian element. Such a title as
that Of the Y NJ. C. A. would create a
certain feeling Of mistrust among the
Italian people as TO the purpose Of
the association.
The officers Of the Y. NJ. c. A. in
Italy have been quick ia appreciate
this, and in order to work in full
harmony with the Italians have
changed the name of the association
to "Societa (di) Fratellanza Uniyer-
sale" or Society of Universal Broth
Accordingly, the letters
IS. f. u" have everywhere been subs
stituted for Y. NJ. C. A."
