in the wal against the central powers
until there is settled "once for air
for the world what was settled for

Foreign-born citizens Of the United
States of 33 nationalitia, who had
placed wreaths of palms on the tomb
in token OF fealty to the principles
laid down by the father Of this coun'
try, cried their approval of his words
in many languages and then stood

the voice Of John Mccormack scared

100000 FIGHTING STRENGTH
Quartermaster General Declares That
United States viii Have 100000
Soldiers In Uniform by

Observation-Disclosures troops sent
overseas number 1,019,115. OF this
number 700, 900 are fighting troops.
This was made known by President
Wilson, who gave to the public a let.
ter from Secretary Baker disclosing a
record of achievement which the presi.
dent said must cause universal sat

American shores on May s, 1917. Gen.
Pershing followed IL days later, and
at the end of the month 1,718 men had

ers" from the western republic flowed
overseas in a steady stream until up
wards Of 300, 900 had departed when
the great German thrust began last
March.
Shortly before the announcement

fore that body in connection with the
army budget. In 1t Gen. r. E. Wood,
acting quartermaster general OF the
army, disclosed the fact that by Jan. /
the United States will have In uniform
an army OF 100000 men.
President Wilson's determination 10
meet Germany's supreme efforts with
the utmost of Americas available man
power to assist the desperately resist
ing French and British armies is
sharply reflected in the movement OF
troops during the last three months.
The March sailings Of 1881 were In
creased in April to 117,212. May saw
another 244,345 men embark, and last
month 276,372 were sent away, making
a total for the three months Of 637,929.
This, Secretary Baker said, put the
troop movement six months ahead OF
the original program.
Substantially 30 divisions are now in
France, ready to meet whatever move
the German staff has in preparation.
