10000 March in Bronx
Section of Red Cross
Parqde; 10000 Vie,u 1t

It is estimated that between 10000
and 100000 persons witnessed The
Bronx section of the, Red Cross parade.
The marchers. 10000 in number, took
one hour and half to pass the review
ing stand, which was situated at Burn
side Avenue, on the Grand Boulevard
and Concourse. Borough President
Henry Bruckner, with other Bronx Of
ficiais, reviewed the marchers. Headed
BY Grand Marshal .Olin ], Stephens, the
proces1Sn started at ,161st Street and
swung Up the Grand Concourse as far
as Kingsbridge Road, where it was
.disbanded. A platoon of police, in
charge of Inspector Richard O'Connor,
was the guard of honor.
One Of the features of the demon
strAtion was composed of the mothers,
wives and sweethearts of soldier boys
In France as they swung. along with
their service flags, some OF which bore
as many as Ave stars.
| There was a detachment from Base
Hospital No. /, Kingsbridge Road; the
lConst. Defence Command. Cd Field Ar
tillery, Pelham Bay naval reserves and
nurses from Base Hospital NO; l, Ford
ham, lincoln and Lebanon hospitals
and the Montefore Home. Boy Scouts,
school delegations and auxiliary nurs-
ing corps were also in evidence. Three
hundred Bronx patrolmen, assisted by
335 of The Bronx reserves, pollced the
line Of march.

describe the scene as one resembling
the eruption of a volcano. Huge clouds
of yellowish brown smoke rose in the
air in dense volume, carrying with 1T
suffocating gaseous fume that spread
over the countryside. These fumes and
those Of sulphuric acid that had been
released kept off any one who would at
tempt to get to the plant on rescue
work.
Troops of the state constabulary,
who were early ordered on the scene
from the Bridgeville station, arranged
"a zone Of safety about half mile
( from the plant, and tonight the deadly
fumes are so heavy that no one has
been able to approach within that dis
lance. .,
DR.. J. A. Hanna, Pennsylvania rail
road surgeon in charge OF the hrst re-,
to this CITY, described Oakdalc as q
diving hell" He said his train had
to race through the flames to pass an
unexploded tank of T. N. T., and at
any moment he expected to hear rep
etition of the former blasts. DR.. Hanna
said he saw children lying dead on the
hillsides a mile away, and that rela-
tives and friends Of employees of the
plant tried to storm through the
barred zone in an effort to learn It
loved ones had been killed.
When the injured began to arrive
at the railroad station In Pittsburgh the
Red Cross procession was its height:
Without waiting to finish the line Of
march seventy five registered Red
Cross nurses awaiting orders to go
to France, left the commandered first
aid stretchers being carried in the
parade and proceeded to the station
and the various hospitals to help.

their places to the woman in blue

More Cheering Throngs
This time marchers and onlookers

Humorous Incidents Feature Parade;
Boy Whistles Music for Tired Marchers

A Red Cross nurse who did not
march yesterday was Bessie, smil-
ing-faced and uniformed, who was
perched out in front of the upper win
dows of the Manhattan Wash Suit
Company, at 100 Fifth Avenue, and
who squawked her approval of her sister
paraders continually through the whole
line of march. Yes, "squawked" is
the word, but even that was pretty
good for Bessie--for she was only
three feet high and bisque at that.
When the "Green Cross" girls, those
who are engaged in taking care
of the families of enlisted men, got
down to Twenty-frst Street, there was
a lull in the music that made their
tired feet drag as they took the last
blocks of the march. Then it was that
a. smudgy-faced little newsie called
out:
"Come on folks, let's whistle 'em
through it'll"
And led off by his shrill piping of
"Pack UP Your Troubles" the crowd
did whistle for the gratifed women
clear down to Nineteenth Street.
A new species of chivalry was dis
covered when after the parade a group
