impulsiveness given by the French
military whenever something hap
pens on the French border. Too
little reliance in allied diplomacy,
or at least concert of action, will
mean an impression Of French in
stability that many hurt Frances
business relations with the outside
world. Unquestiohably Marshal
Foch is popular with the masses
but his influence upon French gov
eminent policy in the enforcement
of the peace treaty has caused no
end Of disquiet in allied councils
where the fear lies whether ex-
pressed or suppressed that the hero
of the world war longs to become
a sort Of dictator in France.
Critical Hour For France.
It is a critical moment for France,
as all the allied diplomats have
had their troubles dealing with the
French because of Marshal Foch.
In official quarters here. for in
stance, there is much sympathy
with the French viewpoint though
President Wilson himself has char
acterized the desire of the French
for a tripartite defensive treaty be-
tween France, Great Britain and the
United States as largely case of
French nerves" Again and again
| when the American peace mission
was at Paris, the power of Mar
shall Foch to effect French foreign
office policy was deplored by Brit
ish and American Off Gals and many
observers here think the charge
made by President Wilson recently
of French militarism was aimed
particularly at the tendency OF
Marshal Foch to introduce into the
field too much Of what the average

the moment when every son of

Frances Wilson Huard, speaking In

for Devastated France, last night
held her audience at the Burtis
theatre eutranced with a graphic
WORD film, and won them to her
cause.
The speaker told her story with
the utmost simplicity. but with the
sincerity and force engendered by
her own experience and with q
dramatic effect gained in the rela-
stion OF succession of lurid word
pictures.
A crowd which packed the lower
house and half filled the balcony
heard the French woman, who de.
scribed herself as American by
birth, French by education and
marriage"

two reels Of the film. "The Herr.

Be 1t resolved by the Senate and
House Of Representatives Of Kentucky,
that we do most heartily endorse this
worthy movement upon the part Of the
War Mothers of the State and sincere
ly hope that their vision of a great
Memorial Bridge across the Kentucky
River at the Capital City will shortly
be realized.
And be it further resolved, we view
with approval the plan of having
each Of the one hundred and twenty
counties of Kentucky represented In
this splenid Memorial Bridge the
placing thereon of a bronze tablet
containing the names of the soldiers
who served from the various counties,
and with special reference to those
who gave up their lives.
We would urge upon the present
State officials that they cooperate In
every way with the War Mothers In
this project, particularly the State
Road Department, which might make
Of this structure part of the great
highway scheme now being worked
out in Kentucky, and would recon-
mend to the next General Assembly
that they assist in making such me-
mortal possible.
The Adair County news., 1920-04-21

The War Mothers of Kentucky, an
organization Of the women who gave
their sons upon call Of their govern
ment that the world might be free,
have determined that the patriotism
and heroism Of all Kentuckians in the
late world war shall be memOrialized
in a most lasting way by the building
of a memorial bridge across the Ken
lucky River at the State Capital. This
splendid monument, shown above, was
given the strongest endorsement by
the General Assembly of Kentucky at
the session just closed, with the sug-
gestion that it be made part Of the
great public highway scheme laid out
by the Assembly.
The organization Of War Mothers,
which is made up of county units rep
resenting each of the one hundred and
twenty counties of Kentucky, deter
mined to unite in a single memorial,
builded by the combined efforts Of the
county organizations rather than scat
tered monuments. They decided that
the monument be an emblem repre-
senting the entire Commonwealth ;
that it should be a practical, useful
memorial and that it should be located
where it would be a spectacle to the
greatest number Of people of the Com
monwealth. A glance at the picture
shows the very practical side of these
suggestions. The bridge will cross the
Kentucky River at the head Of Main
street in the city Of Frankfort, its
southern end resting on Capitol ave
nue., a street one hundred and fifty
feet in width and ending with the new
State Capitol and Governors Mansion.
intellectually the bridge is designed
strictly IN harmony with the Capitol.
It can be seen from both the steam
The Adair County news., 1920-04-21

and electric car lines coming into and
leaving the Capital city as well as au-
toist passing along the Midland Trail.
1t is proposed that each county Of
Kentucky be represented in the me-
mortal by the placing Of a bronze tab
let for each along the main avenue of
the structure, the tablet to contain the
county furnished to the National Gov
eminent in the war. The entrance
arches of the structure will contain
public comfort stations, rest rooms
and drinking fountains, there will be
projecting bays, Nth seats, on either
side Of the walk ways of the bridge.
Electric light standards ending in flag
poles for decorative purposes will be
placed at the bays. The approaches
to the bridge North and South will be
embellished with permanent landscape
paintings
That the Capital City of Kentucky
is the proper setting for such a splen-
did memorial is generally accepted by
lAC pCOpIC WIN nave lulCLColCu lllClu-
selves in the project. People from
every section of Kentucky are in
Frankfort daily. That the General
Assembly held to this idea is shown
by the following resolution OF endorse
ment which was adopted unanimously
in both branches of that body:
Whereas, The organization known
as the War Mothers Of the State OF
Kentucky, made up Of the patriotic
women who gave their sons to the
cause Of world freedom and sent them
across the seas to battle for that
cause, while they, remaining at home
gave their energy and time to every
war effort fostered by the National
Government, Is now engaged In pro
noting a State memorial to the men
