Between Piccadilly and Bucking-

park which was dark with people.

the park, banked on the right by the
wall OF the Palace ground, and then
into the broad plaza before the Pal
ace and through the Iron gates into
the Palace forecourt.
Probably the most interesting part
Of the spectacle for the President was
the people who were crowded every

the human factor presented the most
interest. The interior OF the grimy
old station, where King George well
coined Mr.. Wilson. was carpeted with
red. and walls and roofs were hidden
behind masses OF flags. Club win
dows were mostly monopolized by
men, while the hotels and stores
along the way were hlled with gay
parties only less interesting than
those on the streets.
That such masses OF American
tiags could be produced at such short
notice was a revelation OF London's
resources. and none appreciated them
more than the American soldiers and

BAKER ASKS ACT
OBU|LD UP ARMY
AFTER FINAL PEACE
Too Small to Police Border
and Meet Other Needs Fol-
lowing Demobilization.

WASHINGTON. Dec. 26.-Immedi-
ate legislation authorizing resumption
of voluntary enlistment in the Army
and the repeal OF provisions OF the
selcctive Service Act limiting enlist
ments 10 the period OF the war was
urged to-day by Secretary Baker in a
letter to Chairman Dent of the House
Military Committee.
This legislation is urgently neces-
sary," the Secretary wrote, because
as soon after the. proclamation of
peace as the existing emergency will
permit those who have enlisted or
been drafted to serve during the einer-
gency, must all, in accordance with
the law. be discharged. Demobiliza-
tion OF these men Is now being rap
idly made and 1t is expected soon to
release them at a rate of over 10000
a day or 100000 a week.
The only men who will remain in
the service in the service are those
men enlisted in the regular army on
or prior to April 1, 1917, and whose
enlistments have not yet expired.
This small number has been cut
down by casualties and other vicissi-
tudes until the entire military force
of the United States that can be re-
tained in the service will be abso-
lutely inadequate and insufficient TO
perform such essential military duties
as policing the Mexican border. gar
risoning our insular possessions,
manning the sea coast defenses OF the
United States. occupying permanent
posts and garrisons, guarding and
protecting the large amount of re-
Gently acquired Government property
and maintaining and operating the
camps and contonments in this coun-
try to which troops retured from
overseas may be sent for prompt 10

LONDON. Dec. 26.--The drive of
President and Mrs. Wilson from the
railroad station In London to Buck
lngham Palace was made through
streets lined with the Guards regi-
ments in khaki. Fresh fags hung
overhead and covered the buildings
while windows. balconies, sidewalks
and open spaces were filled with
people. many OF whom wore the
American colors.
First came the sovereign's escort
troops from the Household cav
airy. with helmets and steel cuirasses.
Then came the carriages with King
George and President Wilson and
Queen Mary. Mrs. Wilson nnd
Princess Mary. These were follow cd
by three others. which passed almost
unnoticed. as all eyes were fer Mt
and Mrs. Wilson and the roytl fam
lily.
Although the trip was a short one
It lay through a most interesting sec
ton OF London. From Charing Cross
tho route ran along the north side
OF Trafalgar Square. with the Nelson
Monument towering on the left and
the National Gallery on the right, Its
gray walls almost covered by huge
American and British fiags. II con-
tinued along Pail Mall. turning north

James Street to Piccadilly-the chief
landmarks along this stage being the
solid, weather worn buildings OF the
old London clubs now decked with
bunting they keep for special occa-
sions.

along the north side OF Piccadilly. also

ashore, was Immediately greeted by
the Duke OF Connaught and the other
of the welcoming party.
After reviewing the guard of honor
he passed through the covered way to
the station, where the Mayor and the
Office extended formal welcome. The
reading OF the address was done by
Sir A. Booking, the city's Recorder.
The President replied briefly to the
address. He said:
I'VE have come through many seri-
GUS times together and therefore can
regard each other in a new light as
comrades and associates, because
nothing brings men together like a
common understanding and a COM
mon purpose.
at is therefore with deep emotion
and peculiar qualification that l find
myself here afforded the opportunity
OF matching my mind with the minds
OF those who. with a like intention,
are proposing to do ..e best they can
and that can be done in the great
settlement OF the struggle"
As President Wilson walked to the
train a dozen girls wearing the Amer
lean colors strewed petals of roses
In his path. All this time the air
planes had been lowering over the
pier and tho station. and as the
special train bearing the PresGsen,
left for the capital the airmen also
headed for London, accompanying the
train all the way. ''NFN ~

The Navy's Secretary was ac-

guessed anyhow - another ovation
followed.

DOVER, Dec. 26.-The steamer
Brighton. on which President Wilson
crossed the Channel. had n quick and
smooth passage and arrived at Dover
Just about midday. She was met at
Calais by Sir Charles Gust, the Kings
Equerry, and Vice-Admiral Sir
Roger Keyes, who accompanied the
party TO Dover. Four French de-
stroyers escorted the Brighton to
mid channel. where British destroy
ors and a dozen airplanes took over
the duty.
As the Brighten entered the harbor
the salute in honor of the President
was fired from Dover Castle. This
was tho first time since the beginning
OF the war that this honor has been
accorded any visitor. The Brighton's
path was along the line Of ships OF
the Dover patrol. all of which were
flying American fings and their crews
lining the rails. The bands, which,
when the Brighton was sighted, mad
played God save the King" now

at attention.
The Brighton was flying the Presi-

the King and entered the carriage.
American naval and military officers
travelling with the President were
presented to King George by the Presi-
dent and then the entire party walked
through the gaily decorated station to
thc waiting carriages in which they
rode in procession to Buckingham
Palace.
The scene within the station was
unusual. All traffic had been sus-
pended and the station was decorated
with flags and crimson carpet. At

several minutes, the distance between
each of the dreadnoughts being 500
yards. No answering shot came from
the Mayfiowcr until the PennsylvaniS

VICTORIOUS FLEET REACHES
CITY IN DARKNESS COVER;
WELCOME MARRIED BY STORM

Exactly as the warriors OF the
sea went forth under cover of dark
ness they returned. They came back
as victocs flying their battle flags.
their homeward bound pennants
trailing from their mastheads beyond
the quarterdecks into the sea: but
their triumphant entry was halted at
the entrance OF the harbor and they
stole into their homes like wraiths,
instead OF victors OF the war.
Millions lined the piers to shrek
and yell and cheer their welcome.
Scores Of gayly decked excursion
boats slipped out from their moor
lngs with blaring bands and expect.
ant crowds. But those on board saw
only the shadows OF the giants OF the
sea as they stole by. The boats were
stopped before they had gone 100 foet
from thir docks by the vigilant sea
patrol which had been established to
make certain that there should be no
interference. Their passengers. who
had paid their dollar for the prlvi-
feet, saw no more than those who
had remained behind on shore.
No booming of cannon, no Shrek
ing OF sirens, no waving OF handker-
chiefs and wild hurrahs welcomed
the phantom feet as the shadows
drifted by the Battery. They were
all there ready for the outburst; but
so were there also the mist. the fog
and tho -row,
The blowing OF the sirens aud
whistles had to be called off fer fear
Of their interfering with the fog sig
nails OF the incoming fleet.
The battling giants went into the
North River as stealthily as IL they
were approaching Heligoland.
Then. with the perversity OF fate,
the snow ceased falling. the mist lift
cd and the more fortunate crowds
further up the river saw the war
ships in all the glory of their gray
lines, their hags. pennants and the
gallant fighters who made up their
personnel. But the moment for the
throbbing welcome OF a proud and
grateful people had passed.
MAYFLoWER FOLLOWS SILENT

The dreadnought Arizona was the

snow she appeared to the waiting
crowds along Staten Island like q
great gray ghost of the sea, just her
outlines being visible. At the head oI
the procession was a low-fying sea-
plane. Then followed ten submarine
chasers and two camouhaged de.
stroyers.
