The armistice was signed in November
1918, South Bend recovered and turned
It's face to the front. The Studebaker Cor
poration had vision and asked the people
to view it and act The memorable Ersk-
inc dinner was held at the Oliver hotel in
February, 1919, and the city (not the adj
ministration alone) was asked to to ex-
press It's faith in the Studebaker program
of expansion. Practically every line Of
business was represented at that moment
us event, including the Newspapers, the
Lawyers and the Carson administration.
Mr.. Erskine was promised unqualified
support and unquivocal cooperation. The
sense of that gathering was help Stude-
bakers help South Bend and Carson went
to work. The question Of cost was not
considered by those who endorsed the
Erskine plan. "Expediency'' was the
word, Back to work was the cry and the
spirit was caught by all. What if Carson
had taken a contrary. stand then? would
he have been praised now. Did his news
paper endorsed opponent do anything to-
ward bringing South Bend back to norm
al?

Carson
Fell In Line

Material and labor were high when
South Bend promised Studebakers it
would help, but the people had spoken and
the work had to be done.
Labor was engaged, material was pur-
chased contracts were let and the program
was started. Boards were called into ses-
sions, conferences were held, orders were
given and things moved as they had to
move to keep pace with the Studebaker
progress. Water mains were extended
(not into vacant fields as you have been
told) into additions in which hundreds Of
homes were to be erected. Sidewalks were
laid sewers dug, streets paved, lights
placed and all that is expected of NUM-
cipality was given and given in haste to
meet the demand and fulfill the promise.
Should Carson be criticized for not
laying down would any mayor, unless
he had been blind to the ISSUE done other
wise? what would have become of Stude-
bakers program and where would South
Bend have stood if the practice which Car
sons most active opponent promises
would have been used in ] 9I9 and 1920?
Can South Bend afford to change mayors
now? This city may want to grow more.

CHINA LEGION
AT WARDS TOMB
MEMORIAL DAY

Shanghai-As a part of future
observance of Memorial day by
Americans in China, annual pill
grimmages are to be made to the
grave of General Frederick Ward,
the American who while the Civil
war was being fought in America
conceived and put into execution
the plans which suppressed the
great TAPPING rebellion
The custom was instituted this
year by Shanghai branch of the
American Legion, the General
Frederick War Post
1t was when the TAPPING rebel
lion, in which it is estimated TO-
000, 900 persons were killed, was at
its height that Lii Hung Chang, fore
most Chinese Of that day, recruited
the services of Frederick Ward,
than a youthful American whose ex-
PLOTS as first officer on a Chinese
gunboat had brought him into no
tice. He was a native of Salem,
Mass.
Under a commission of the Chin
csc government Ward organized
what afterwards came to be called
Dy IuS IfCL
Army" City after city was taken
from the Taipings by this army,
which grew from ragged monde
script force of a hundred to 10000.
On the morning of Sept. 20, 1862,
when General Ward was directing
an attack on the town of Tsz XII,
he was MORALLY wounded. His
troops captured the town but their
leader passed away that night. He
is buried in Sungkiang.
The respect and the confidence
that the Chinese had felt for Gen
eral Ward in life they demonstrat-
ed by the honors they paid him aft
er his death and by the monument
they erected to his memory at
Sungkiang. Here in the ornate Ian
guage of old Cathay they have thus
immortalized him:
"a wonderful hero from beyond the
seas,
The fame of whose deserving 10y
atty encircles the world,
Has poured out his azure blood up
on the soil of China.
A happy seat among the clouds and
temples lasting for a thou
sand springs
Commemorate his faithful heart"
