the Mayor In AN "unchristianlike
spirit" You request the name OF
the individual" who made these
remarks. lie Is Lieut.. William T.
Simpson. formerly OF the u. S.

were undoubtedly addressed To
the Mayor. As recall them they
were az follows: "Ohl How

convenience for over two hours.
The people on board these boats
were deprived OF meeting their
relatives and friends, and the

welcomed except by the little
party OF which | had the honor to

You will recall that when these
remarks were made they seemed
TO meet with the appreciation OF
the people on board the city
owned vessels and on board the
other vessels in the harbor. No
doubt these remarks directly re-
nect tho sentiment Of most OF tho
people of Brooklyn and show In "A
measure the utter contempt and
disregard they have for the Chief
Magistrate OF the city, and disap-
proval of his signal failure TO
provide properly IA welcome for
the returning soldiers OF this bor-

AT Banquet Given by King

Brussels. June 10 (delaye0.-
There has never been In the Unit
ed States . more general and uni-
versal comprehension of sympathy
with the affairs of another nation
than that which the people Of the
United States have had for the af-
fairs and the people Of Belgium"
President Wilson said tonight, In
speaking at q dinner given In his
honor by King Albert
-One OF the delightful experiences
of these last days has been to hear
the acclaim from the heart which
everywhere greeted lie roll Their
first cry was for their king. Their
second thought was the welcome
Of the stranger and I was glad It
was so, because I knew that I was
with q real statesman and a real
ruler. No man has any power ex-
cept that which is given him by the
people he. represents.
The people of Belgium need to
have a friendly hand extended to
them. but they do not need to have
anybody take care of them. A
people that is taken care of by It's
government is people that its
government will always have to
take care of, but the people of Bel
gium. II I have caught any great
part of their spirit and character.
do not need to have anybody take
care of them. They need, because
of the catastrophes of their year.
temporary assistance to get the
means to take care OF themselves" ="
The President concluded with a
toast to the king and queen and to
-the long and Astounding prosperity
Of the kingdom" over which they
rule.
