NEW YORK

New York, July 4.-Escorted by two squadrons of American airplanes which, in battle formation, swooped and scared with the daring of giant eagles, 10000 residents of this city drawn from 34 nations, celebrated the Fourth of July this year by moving up Fifth avenue in the greatest march for freedom" the world has known.
 From morning until night this seem ingly endless column of civilians and fighting men passed under the Wash ington arch and up the avenue, be- tween solid walls of red, white and blue, that all might see how steadfast and unshakable was the morale of America in the world war.
 In this great outpouring of the melt ing pot were men and women of all races and creeds.
 Even Germany contributed to the pageant, for over the division of loyal persons of German birth or descent flew a banner reading, "Born in Ger many, but made in America
 This sane and safe" Fourth which brought with it here hardly the pop of a fire-cracker or the flare of a rocket, was made not a day of frivol- ty, but an occasion on which the folks at home" might pledge to the "boys over there" that support that know no faltering.
 France and other allies contributed men and floats, Great Britain supply ing 300 of her warriors. Of the 125 or more floats. that which perhaps re- ceived the greatest applause was "Britannia." surrounded by wounded veterans of her home army and those from each of her colonies.
 Other floats, eagerly greeted were those of the army and navy, the former showing camouflaged section of trenches, with soldiers operating a ma- chine gun.
 Chinas new ship of state-Democ- ray" and the Philippine float with such placards as Manila hemp SUD- ports the United States navy were in- cluded among other unique features The Syrian division had a float which represented Christ and His Disciples and bore the legend, ''rhe first Syrian expedition that conquered the world
 The first section was composed of soldiers, sailors, marines, war auxil- iarieS and police. The other compris- . ing Americans of foreign birth. was led by Miss Lillian Burlington, garbed as Joan of Arc and mounted on a white horse.
 Alter hef came ldDleaux or the spirit of '76' and 1918. In the latter appeared only New York women who had six or more sons in the service.
 In one national division there was only one person, Dinsshah P. Ghadiali, said to be the sole Parsee Zoroastrian in the United States
 The Russian contingent. last in line, passed the reviewing stand at 7:10 o'clock tonight. It received a strong finale of the cheering that had never Waned during the day.
