Chief Executives Of About Forty
States Meet For Tenth An
nual Event Today
ARE WELCOMED BY
GOV. HARRINGTON
Mayor Strange Also Extends
Hearty welcome To Visitors
On Behalf Of Annapolis

The tenth annual session OF the Con-
ference of State Governors, convened
in the old Senate Chamber of the state
house shortly after noon today, with
about forty governors and governors
elect present. Governor William Spry,
of Utah, presided.
The conference was opened with
prayer by DIR. Wilson II. Burgan, of
this city, and addresses of welcome
were made by Governor Harrington
and Mayor Strange. Governor Rich
ard Manning, of South Carolina, was
on the program for the response, but
did not arrive until after the noon re-
cess.
Governor Harrington said in part:
Mr.. Chairman, and Ladies and Gentle
men of the Conference:
1t is very pleasing to me that the
first Conference of the Governors after
the world war from which we have
just emerged should meet in Maryland
and in this ancient and historic City
of Annapolis, where, whichever way
we turn, we behold so many land
marks of the struggles of our state and
nation.
When the Governors Conference
last met in Washington in December,
1916, just two years ago, though omni-
Gus clouds had from time to time ap-
peared above the horizon, our country
had not yet been drawn into the awful
whirlpool of war which then threat
ened to involve all the nations of the
earth. Shortly thereafter it became
clear even to the strongest advocate of
peace that the American nation could
no longer in honor submit to the viola
tions by the common enemy of all the
known principles of international law
in their relations with us, could no
longer be blind to the possible conse-
quences of the success of the central
dynasties of Europe, and could no
longer remain aloof when we saw that
the civilization of the world was
threatened and that by the success of
the enemy the permanency of demo-
cratic institutions would be imperilled
in every Quarter of the globe.
In less than eighteen months we had
organized and trained an army of
from three TO four millions of men,
two million, two hundred thousand Of
them had been transported across
three thousand miles of ocean and at
the very crisis of the war. an army of
American soldiers, the best and brav-
est the world has ever known, filed
the breach which had been made in the
most critical part of the line of battle,
began the famous attack which has
finally driven back and crushed the
enemy, and saved the day and the war,
for the honor of our country and for
the freedom of the world.
/ am perfectly willing to pay tribute
and do all honor to our allies. Too
much for all these countries can
not be said But all of them were
fighting for their very existence and
they all knew it. Victory for Germany
meant the last of France, the last of
Belgium, the last of Italy and the last
OF England That was recognized BY
the whole world 1t might have meant
the last OF America. 1t surely meant,
had we kept out of the war and Ger
many been successful. the giant of the
western continent would have had
finally TO fight and fight practically

RED CROSS DRIVE
FOR MEMBERSHIP ON
Two Excellent Speeches Heard
At Colonial Theatre BY Small
Though Interested Audience
THE GOVERNOR PRESIDEs

An audience of moderate size gath
cred in the Colonial theatre yesterday
afternoon to inaugurate the local part
of the drive TO secure the renewal of
membership of the Red Cross. Cover
nor Harrington presided and spoke
briefly, while an eloquent address was
made by DR.. Thomas Green. chief of
the bureau of speakers OF the National
Red Cross, and most interesting talk
given by Major C. E. King OF the
Royal British Artillery.
Governor Harrington said that he
would speak briefly, as presiding Off
Ger should, and read the proclamation
asking for renewed membership in
the Red Cross which is published
generally throughout the state today.
He told of the many requests for help
of various kinds that came to him as
governor, and said that he turned
them over to the Red Cross, which al
ways took care of them in a hearty
and efficient manner. He then intro
duced Dr. Green.
DR. Green said that the object of the
movement at this time was to lay
before the whole citizenship OF the ma
ton, not only the $4,000. 900 of the Red
Cross members, the claims of that or
ganization to its interest and support
He said that this claim was not based
on the sentimental memory of what it
had accomplished or even on the ne
cessities of the future, but that the
Red Cross might be carried in the
hearts of the people as a spirit an
ideal which was to be maintained
always.
Work Not Yet Done
The speaker said that this nation
had done great work and made great
sacrifices, but that it's work was not
done. AS much as our 100000 casual
ties meant to us, he said, they were
insignificant in comparison with Great
Britain's roll of a million dead or
with Frances 100000. He said that
England and France had for three and
half years borne the burden of de-
mocracy in the fight against autoc-
racy, and fought for us and for all
humanity.
Dr. Green pictured in an eloquent
manner the work of preparation in
this country, and how at last our men
began to stream across the ocean and
to the battle field. He told of the ma
rines arriving at Belleau Woods, the
name of which France has now
changed to "The Woods of the Amer
loan Marines" and of Lieut. Col Cat
Inns answer to the request of the
French officer that they hold on until
trenches could be dug to the rear, and
then retreat: Hell, we have just come
here"
The marines did stay he said. They
stayed for eight days and held their
ground while $500 of their 5000 were
killed or wounded
The speaker paid glowing tribute
