DANIELS SAVES DAY
 FOR BERLIN VISIT
Expects to March Into Berlin With Marine Band When It Plays
 For PerShing.

Philadelphia, Sept. 24-In an ad- dress to workers at the Eddystone Ammunition Corportion plant yester- day, Secretary Daniels confirmed the stand the United States has taken that there shall be no compromise with Germany.
 "On my calendar in Washington, :" said the Secretary, there is recorded an engagement, no date yet set, to go with the Marine Band when it marches in the triumphal entry of Gen. Pershing's victorious army into Berlin"
 Fifteen thousand workers cheered the Secretary, who visited the plant to help celebrate the delivery within one year by the company of l,OOo, oo0 rifles to the government Before speaking, Secretary Daniels visited the gun factory of the Baldwin Loco- motive Works nearby, where he was shown the latest creations in heavy ordnance, and then inspected the .Eddystone plant.
 II came out of that plant a better American, the machinery in there is playing Columbia. Gem of the Ocean to the tune of America Will Win the War;" said the Secretary.
 In his address MT. Daniels said the acid test for the men of America after the war will be-"Did they give everything they had to their country in it's trial? Better for the men who cannot answer this question in the affirmative that he had a milestone about his neck and thrown into the sea-" said the Secretary.
 When the Kaiser had to go to the Krupp works to see if his subjects were behind him the doom of Ger many was sealed"
