erected for parades. The old stand
cost 80 cents per seat. but material
and labor are now higher, and the
stands viii not be erected as cheaply
as were the former.
In explaining the need OF 100000,
Mr.. Moran said the sum would be
used not only for the erection OF
stands, but to entertain Gen. Pershng
and his stan at the Waldorf-Astorla.
The Mayors Committee issued a
statement to-day to the effect that
the Mayors Committee and not the
self constituted committee at the
Hotel Biltmore" is making the ar
rangements for the parade and re-
ception to Gen. Pershing. The May
ors Committee will have sole juris-
diction over the distribution of tick
cts. but will mail grandstand tickets
to all relatives of men Of the 1st Di-
vision whose names shall be fur
nished by Gen. McGlachlln.
Seats for 10000 will be provided in
private stand which will be erected
by Alexander Allen. This stand was
used at the time OF the 9th and 77th
Division parades and the lumber is
stored away. IL will cost 5000 to
transport the lumber to the stand
site and erect the stand and take IL
down again. and Major Paul DAILY, in
charge OF the seating arrangements,
says he expects to find no did1culty
in raising that sum.
Major Gen. McGlachlin, command
ing the First Division, said to-day that
all demobillzed members OF the First
Division who desire to march with
their old units must report TO those
units at the camps before noon on
Sept s, to be supplied with equip
ment The four Infantry regiments
will be at Camp Merritt, The Supply,

OF all details from the military side
of the reception to Gen. Pershing,
while Major Gen. McGlachlin con-
tinues in charge of the parade ar
rangements.
The War Department has added a
big feature to the parade by defin-
itely announcing that the composite
regiment returning on the Leviathan,
1880 picked men from the seven
American Army regular divisions in
France, who were loudly acclaimed in
Paris, and are known as Gen. Perish
ing's own" will accompany Gen.
Pershing as a guard of honor when
he leads the LIST down the Avenue. 1t
is yet to be decided whether this reg
iment will march with full equipment
or will carry only rifles and sidearms.
The matter of erecting stands for
the parade Is to be finally settled to-
morrow, when the Board of Alder
men meets in special session to dis
cuss the reception to Gen. Pershing
and the parade. Major Paul Daily,
after discussing the. problem with
John +. Sinnott, Secretary to the
Mayor, said:
Mr.. Slnnott assured me that there
would be two seats in a grand stand
for every member Of the division who
lives In New York City or its vicln-
ity, and who will file his application
for tickets with me,
"The tickets for the grand stands
will be issued on Saturday, so that
applications, preferably by letter,
should be in my hands by Friday
noon.
"Omcers of the division will be al
lotted seats in the official reviewing
stand.

Stands FOR $4,000
TO WATCH PARADE
PLANNED BY CITY
Moran and Hylan to Ask
Board of Estimate for
100000 Tomorrow.

Robert L. Moran, President OF the
Board OF Aldermen, announced to-

the special meeting called for to.
morrow, to appropriate 100000 for
the erection OF grandstands with ac-
commodatlons for 25,OOO people for
the parade Of the First Division,
headed by Gen. Pershing next
Wednesday.
While President Moran said that
Mayor Hylan would make the request
for the money from the Board to-
morrow, ut was learned that Mr..
Moran himself was the author Of the
scheme.
I'VE are going to erect all the
stands possible" said Mr.. Moran,
"and the Board will unquestlonaDly
appropriate 100000 for the purpose.
l believe there will be at least $1,000
seats and perhaps more"
Mr.. Moran, while appreciating the
labor difficulties involved and the
need Of a hasty collecting Of enough
lumber, was optimistic that the task
can be accomplished in the record
breaking time available.
President Moran said 1t would cost
from S115 to $3.50 for each seat in the
and that the lumber would
be turned back to the contractor, as
was the case in the other stands

When PerSh1ng ana nlS SOiuleAs
d crossed the border into Mexico, thu
Il cid style pack train was there to dt
it's part as in other wars. But times
had changed and better Transports
ton was the keynote of modern war
fare. The mule train was too slow
and speed was vital. This was the
I first opportunity that the Government
Il had to test the utility Of the motor
car. Cars were needed and needed
quickly. Pershing ordered many Diff
ferent makes, for he had no way OF
knowing which could successfully
/. combat the hardships of forced en-
4 trance into that roadless country
Several hundred Dodge Brothers cars
were supplied by local dealers along
J the border, and It was only 2 short
time before the performance Of these
cars became favorably conspicuous.
The Government had been carefully
watching the results. y He;
Following closely came our entry
into the great war, and Pershing
sailed for France. Thousands Of cars
we're needed quickly by the American
Rxpeditionary Forces. Transporta-
ton, the backbone of the army, was
the Governments first thought. With
IN short time Dodge Brothers Mo-
tor Car was officially selected as the
only car of its class for use In all our
military operations. Training camps
and environments all over the country
had their Dodge Brothers cars in &C
tive service. Thousands went to
Pershings' men in France. Other
thousands were put to every possible
characterization use in the United
States. Cantonments had their fire
trucks, police patrols, hospital am
balances, and other special, bodies
mounted on Dodge Brothers chassis.
Dodge Brothers cars were used for
training the first Motor Car Division
as it was then called, in Camp john
ston. Jacksonville, Fla.
During the terrific storms Of last
winter transportation was serious
problem. Hundreds Of these cars
were boxed at the works for export,
and carried to the seaboard on motor
trucks, travelling in trains of thirty TO
sixty trucks at a time. Other hum
dreds were driven to Atlantic ports
under their own power, in solid trains
az a. many as one hundred and TWEEN
" cars, where they were Grated Tor
overseas shipment.
A II these cars had seen strenuous
safvtcefip Mexico and IN the Unitsd
States, the work they have been called
up on TO perform in France, Belgium,
England, Russia and Italy has been
more strenuous still.
It is with natural pride that we hear
OF the good work our cars have done
In helping to move our forces ever
forward. It is said that soldiers grow
to love the tools and weapons that
serve them. They admire especially
the inanimate things that show endur-
ance and stand up under the terrific
abuse made necessary by the needs of
war. No greater tribute to the part
that Dodge Brothers cars have played
could be written, than the enthusiast
tic letters from our soldier boys who
have lived with them and seen the
arueling work they we're called upon
to do. o. ts '' =
