 Dear Commander and My Com rades:
 France and her army have ren- dered recently a solemn tribute 10 the glorious memory of your broth CTS who have fallen on the battle fields of France for the defense Of liberty. We celebrate with you on this Fourth of July the anniversary of your in dependence. Noble Wash ington will remain its eternal cham pion and our fellow countryman. La Fayette, Rochambeau and Grasse, were it's enthusiastic pioneers.
 'Fraternally united by the Amer ican victories our peoples have pi- ously kept in remembrance of this sacred flame of justAe and humani- ty Your generous spontaneity, your courage, your faith, your broadmind- edness, your disciplined youth, your love for the France of Jeanne D. Arc, of Marquette, of Cha1plain, of La Fayette and of the poilu move us profoundly.
 My dear comrades of the Ameri- can Legion, I hail you as the worthy grandsons of tle officers, non-com- missioned officers and privates whom Washington commanded. Like them, you have sacrificed much, but like them also you will remain the below ed children of tka American nation.
 Tt will be the honor of my life as | a soldier and a Frenchman to have had among the army of democracy and of liberty your splendid army. | brilliantly commanded, always ready for any offensive
 Heroes of the dark hours of yes terday, comrades in battle. let us be brothers and faithful friends in the l peace of tomorrow.
 France and America did not fight for conquest. We hate war, We sim ply defended the soil of the father | land.
 Washington and Lafayette have reminded the soldiers of ideallsm. with the exclamation My heart en- lists in the service of liberty that LaFayette left Metz, liberated today to embark on the ship La Nictoire It was with the words lafayette. we are here that my friend and com rade. General Pershing, brought to the French and to the allied arhiies the assistance of your millions oi men.
 "our orphans, supported by your | admirable men and women, Will lay | flowers at the foot of Washington statute. our soldiers will render mh- ;tarv honors to your flag upon wh'cn ie ouhlazoned forever the name ol Cbateau Thierry. St. Michael, ana oi the Argonne In their name | sai''e vour Star Spangled Flag; to the sio r,ous dead of your three wars aSiee' in divine peace.
