Immediate suspension Of publication

Department is made mandatory by bill
introduced to-day BY Senator Stanley

on the bill and is indignant over the
publication Of Inaccurate lists. which in

turned down by draft boards.
The excuse is made for some OF the
errors IN publishing these lists that men
failed to notify their draft boards that
they had volunteered" said Senator

suspended at once, and not resumed
until their correctness is fully e.tab-
Ished by competent evidence"

heNed by doubt, should receive
British justice" Such was the talk
he made. What his administration
now appears to be doing is conniving
at making a farce of the whole pro-
cedure Not one of the "higher-ups'
has been brought to trial and the dig
nified court is puttering away over a
brutal sergeant or some inconspicu-
Gus tool of the German methods and
imposing a few months sentence on
the guilty. Either George should not
have made his boasts and silently ad-
mitted inability or quite a number of
the German brutes should have been
demanded, contaminated and shot.
What is now being done is but a
pitiful farce.

made them beautiful, and the peace
which reigns here should be unbrok-
en-. intended no disagreement with
those gold star mothers at home who
asked that the bodies of their sons
be returned to the land which bore
them, but I think that in following
this natural impulse. they may have
acted without full understanding Of

Could they be with us here today,
and see what I see, they would not

ouac of the dead
EVERY cross before us marks the
grave of a hero who died that 9TH

earthly sacrifice. for which there is
heavenly reward. Let us. therefore,
praise these dead. but not pity them,
for theirs is the higher state"
Marshal Petain, after abiding to
the tender respect and love shown
throughout the United States today
for the soldiers who fell in battle,
said:
May those families, whose tears
are the more bitter for not having
near them the glorious remains of
their children, know of the venera-
ton with which VIC Frech guard
these sacred guests. and of the
homage which we pay to their glori-
GUS memory.

French brothers in arms and in the

To Mr.. Wallace, Marshal Petain
said:
Mr.. Ambassador, you have ex-
pressed eloquently your regret at
seeing removed from the soil of
France, little by little, the American

been done today by the Souvenir

At New York

New York, May 3o-Soldiers and
sailors who gave their lives to Amer
lea were honored in New York TODAY
with the most elaborate program of
Memorial Day ceremonies in the his
tory of the metropolis. On. land and
sea, tribute was paid to heroes who fell
IN the Civil, Spanish American and
World wars.
From early morning. when the par
ade of veterans of the three wars
swung into line at Seventy-second
street, until late at night, when huge
wreath about the shoulders of the
Statue of Liberty was Illuminated, the
program called for impressive arrays
of pageantry in all five boroughs.
For the first time men who gave
their lives in the service of the mer-
chant marine, were given place in the
days exercises. Their mothers-the
gold star mothers of the merchant
marine, two hundred strong, put out
in little fleet of launches on the
Hudson and as they passed between
the long rows of United States des-
troycrs anchored there, flowers were
dropped upon the water in memory of
their departed heroes whose graves
are at the bottom of the sea. A pres
idential salute of twenty guns was
fired by three destroyers as the mo-
theirs sailed slowly down the river.
The mothers. were escorted by the ju-
nior naval reserves.
The parade in Manhattan was in
charge of the Grand Army of the Re-

STRENGTHENING THE BOND

Reading the accounts of the gen.
eral observance of Memorial Day
among the Allied nations one may
appreciate something of the signifi-
canoe which the veteran of our Civil
War may find therein. Because of
the sacrifices then made, because of
the struggle with which the North
maintained the integrity of the Union
this Momoria! Day, now observed in
England, France and Belgium in such
manner as to impress the whole
world, became an occasion fraught
with possibilities little dreamed of by
hose instituting the custom.
England may be jealous of France
and France jealous of England.
Their leaders may be playing fast
and loose with Poland. Russia and
Germany, seeking each to secure
some trade advantage. They may
show little evidence of having learned
anything from the late war. But
what of the people of those coun-
tries? Did they learn nothing? Are
they willing to sustain their leaders
ia the dangerous game that is being
played? Have those peoples no
greater intelligence than before this
var?
The importance Of all this is seen
in the evidence that those peoples
are disposed to exercise more power
in the management of the affairs of
their respective governments. This
observance of our Memorial Day
must in sense become q bond of
sympathy between those peoples and
the United States. Thus will be af-
fcrded an opportunity for the people
of America to impress on them the
beliefs which we fondly think have
helped to make America what it is
And one, very important one among
those beliefs is this, that war should
not be made for purposes of con-
quest. Whatever our leaders under
some circumstances might wish the
mass Of the American people, we be-
lieve, would not support a war Of
aggression. If there may be encour-
aged among the peoples of our Allies
Ike sentiment something will have
been accomplished and the bond of
sympathy strengthened by the OBJ
servance Ct Memorial Day will have

public, and was composed of units
from practically every branch of the
nations fighting forces, as we'll as
units from nearly every organization
of veterans. Men who fought in the
Allied Armies during the World War
also were in the procession. No flag
hut the Stars and Stripes appeared in
the parade, this fact establishing pre-
cedent for the Battalion Des Gardes
Lafayette, Sons of France, who fought
with the Union armies. For forty
years they have carried the tri-color
alongside the American emblem.
The illumination of the wreath
placed about the shoulders of the
Statue of Liberty, which was planned
for tonight, was arranged by the vet
Grams of foreign wars, working in con-
junction with New York florists. The
wreath, which is twenty seven feet in
diameter, is made of evergreens and
studded with peoples. In addition to
the arc light that always sends its glow
over the statue, 200 electric bulbs will
add to the brilliancy.
