President Was 'Most Homesick
Man" in u. S. Forces Over There

NEW YORK. July 9.-Followine
his landing yesterday from the
George Washington at Hoboken
President Wilson was given a tire
mendous welcome by cheering thou
sands along the line of march to Car
negie hall. At the hall Mayor HylaE
and Gov. Smith made brief speeches
The president in his speech said:
you have made me deeply happy
by the generous welcome you have
extended to me, but l do not believe
that the welcome you extend to me is
half as great as that which / extend
| to you.
81 have really, tho have tried on
the other side OF the water to conceal
II, been the most homesick man In
the American expeditionary forces,
and II is with feelings that IL would
be vain for me to try to express that
I find myself in this beloved country
again.
There have been many things that
softened my inconsistencies. One of
the chief things that softened IL was
the very generous welcome that they
extended to me as your representa-
! tive on the other side of the water.
And it was still more softened by the
pride that I had in discovering that
America had at least convinced the
world of her true character.
81 was welcomed because they had
seen with their own eyes what Amer
lea had done for the world. They
had deemed her selfish. They had
deemed her devoted to material inter.
ests. And they have seen her boys
come across the water with vision
even more beautiful than that which
they conceived when they had enter
tanned dreams of liberty and peace.
"We have had our eyes very close
upon our tasks at times, but when.
ever we lifted them, as we were ac.
customed to lift them to a distant
horizon, we were aware that all the
peoples of the earth had turned their
| faces toward us, as those who were
the friends of freedom and OF right,
and whenever we thought of national
policy and of its relation upon the al.
fairs of the world, we knew we were
under bonds to do the large thing and
chance youll ever have to put your.
self on Easy street"

spoke Of several local pasterurlz-

milk found with several local con-
Germs is using it, as he said, only
when a shortage of fresh milk
threatened" DIR. Fowler stated,
there would be no necessity for
doing so at the present time, as
more fresh milk is coming into the
city daily than can be consumed"
DR.. Fowler advises the Washington
housekeeper to ask for clean milk
and to insist upon receiving it.
Clarence r. Wilson, formerly Dis
trict food administrator, emphasized
the waste of labor and time in de-
livery Of milk to homes in the city.
While theoretically advocating the
coming of the city so that milk routes
would not overlap, Mr.. Wilson cited
instances in other communities where
this plan did not work successfully.
II properly prepared Mr.. Wilson
