Songs for the Review.

With the date of the grand review
of the lot Division definitely set for
the 18th it is possible to proceed to
make exact arrangements for that oc-
casion This date is one day later
than that tentatively chosen at the
outset, and it will now be necessary
for Congress to amend its resolution
declaring the day of the review a
holiday. That should be done at once,
as in the absence of the President the
| lapse of ten days will be necessary to
make the resolution effective without
| his signature, unless it can be sent to
! him on his travels for approval
One of the most satisfactory plans
| for the review is that contemplating
the stationing Of choral bodies along
the line of parade for mass singing
whne the troops are passing. With
out some such organization the people
themselves will not lift their voices
in sorg, but under good leadership and
with organized choruses starting the
songs the spectators will doubtless
Join in the now familiar songs that
are identified with the war.
When the Czechoslovak troops re-
Gently paraded through Washington
the public heart was stirred by the
songs they chanted as they marched in
the rain. 1t is now proposed that the
American soldiers will march to the
music of songs by the people. Pos
sibly they will join if discipline per.
mits. The words of these songs that
the men sang in France are known to
all and there could be no finer demon
stration in welcome home than a
chorus of soldiers and people as the
lines pass in review.

can hustle. 1t is fresh from the hands
of moldcrs fashioning and completing
under the inspiration of free institu-
tions which the people control and
from which benefit.
Earlier America lies this side the
Mississippi. That, too, is vast in size,
and an inspiring picture. Throughout
the whole of it every evidence of prog
ress and prosperity exists. The in
habitants are alert, thoroughly capable
and pushing to the last degree. They
overlook nothing. They improve
everything they touch, and they touch
everything within reach. The older
states. indeed, are still very much III

The east is west, because so much of
the west shows eastern stamp. The
east has contributed of the cream of
its population to the upbuiIding of the
west. MANY of the men and women
identified with western development
were. or are, eastern born and reared,
who took with them on their migration

gave their new homes the benefit
The west is east because of gratitude
for this inheritance. It knows and

Drawing" the President.

This is from report sent from the
Presidents special train yesterday:
| "Another man in the crowd remind
ed the President that Dennison had
voted against him in the last presi-
dental election, but would be for him
in 1920. ooh, no. replied the Presi-
dent. laughing and Struggling his
shoulders
We may believe that this man was
entirely sincere-an admirer of the
President, who not only wants to vote
for him next year, but thinks he will
have the opportunity. Nor is anything
more likely than that assurances of
support will reach the President in the
| same way at other points on his jour
ney from the more enthusiastic mem
bers of his audiences.
! But men. either democrats or repub-
licans, opposed to third term might
employ such means to "draw" the
President There is the iveliest curl
osity on the subject, heightened just
now by the suggestion of his opponents
| that this tour is in a way a "feeler"
respecting the proposed third nomina-
| ton.
| Evidently the President is not to be
drawn" The laugh and shrug which
greeted this first assurance will prob
ably greet others of like character.
1t rs easily imagined that if the
President decides upon an announce
ment of SO much interest to both
friends and foes he will make it in
form and under circumstances BETTING
its importance. AT psesent he is dN-
eussing the peace treaty and the
leasle of nations, and giving thought
to the railroad question and the high
cost OF living. Disposing of the third
term question in few words from the
platform of a railroad coach or from
that Of town hall, in response to>an
interruption from the crowd, would
hardly suit.
| Besides, the question of time is 20 be
considered; and this is eariy-too
early-for an announcement of any
kind. The matter, We may assume, is
in the lap Of the gods. Today, the
President is completely the master of
the democratic situation. A call Of
the roll of democratic leaders shows
him first and the others trailing, some
of them far behind. His supremacy is
not challenged from any quarter.
But there is sort of peril in this
undisputed eminence, and in the fact
that, to be effective in action, it must
be maintained for months longer
against all political changes at time
when so much in the political world
is in state of fux.
F! The President can we'll afford to let,
and probably will let, time and cir
cumstances decide the question There
was an effort toward the close of his
first term 10 draw" him on the sub
ject of second But he would not be
drawn" He left that to time, and
time settled it in his favor.
