being made by the American govern
ment to prevent the shipment Of
large supplies of arms and ammuni-

arms out of Belgium were made by
Mexico, it was said. Cargo ship space
was reserved on Holland American

New York, Nov. 13.-In the chill
of a November rain, the nation &C
corded honors today to the first Of

been swung ashore in rope nets, one
by one from the little transport

of the country's fighting men beyond
the seas.
The congress of the United States,
the army, navy, American legion,
the state of Michigan, where most
of the heroes lived, and the city of
Detroit, all joined in honoring them.
With the official representatives
stood little group of relatives of
the dead. Floral tributes and rep
resentation from the Russian en-
bassy acknowledged gratitude to the
American soldiers who fell in Rus
STA in the cause of humanity.
While rain battered on the pier
shed, the services began with Lead
Kindly Light" played by the 18th
Infantry band and the reading of the
Twenty-third Psalm, "The Lord is
my Shepherd"
United States Senator Wads-
worth, of New York voiced the Of
fetal, welcome home to the "first
company of our dead, no less trium-
plant in their homecoming than
those regiments. battaions and COM
panies of the living we have seen
marching thru our streets"
For the American legion, repre-
senting the veterans of the great
war, they were hailed as guides for
US to follow in facing the future
with fortitude, determination, that
the sacrifice of these soldier boys
for progress shall not have been in
vain" Major General John F..
O'Bryan, who commanded the 9th
New York National Guard) division
and the ranking officer in the legion,
delivered the eulogy.
Governor Sleeper of Michigan, in
an address read by Major Rolph

heroes.

ated itself from the votes of every
working man and woman"
Fitzpatrick is chairman of the ma
