Tapo Parades in Brooklyn
Mark Tribute TO Heroes

Procession; Cold Star Moth
ers Hare Place OF Honor

Two parades wound through the
streets of Brooklyn yesterday morning
as marchers sought different rendez-
Vous for Memorial Day services. 1t
was day of glory for the hero dead
OF the borough, and from every church
and every park there came the sound
of voices singing the praise of soldiers
who marched away but did not come
back
Each procession was a pageant that
unfolded sixty years of American his
tory, and each pageant was enacted by
characters who played roles of their
own creation. There were tens Of
thousands of World War veterans;
there were thousands of Spanish
American war veterans, and in the
places Of honor few thin lines of
Grand Army of the Republic veterans,
Groybeards who will go to their
graves vowing that the Wilderness and
Chicamauga were more bloody than
tEc Ar"onne and the Second Marne.
The largest parade was a pretentious
column OF $4,000 marcher,. Starting
from Division and Bedford avenues,
with flags flying and bands playing, the
procession proceeded between crowded
curbs to the Soldiers and Sailors Me
moral Arch. at the entrance to Pros
pect Park, where there was a reviewing
stand, in which were Brigadier General
George 4. Wingate, Colonel Isaac ].
Lowell, Borough President Edward
Rlegeimann, Colonel James McLeer and
United States Senator William Calder.
Legion Posts in Line
Grand Marshal William Patton Crit
hth, CIVIL War veteran, and his staff led
the marchers Behind them came SOL
diers OF the New York National Guard
under the command of Colonel Freder-
lck w. Baldwin; American Legion posts
and veterans of foreign wars.
At the 18th Regiment Armorv q
double line of old men in faded Blue
uniforms awaited the approach of the
parade. As the grand marshal rode
past they saluted sttfly and then fell
IN behind him. They were Civil War
lighters, for whom the entire route of
the parade was toe severe s+~ain
They marched from there to the finish
ana ar were cheered nearly every step of
the way. -
:, There were eight divisions in line
fGf the benefit of those who wondered
why the procession was DELAYED in
starting it must be said that the grand
marshalPs horse did not arrive. Police
inspector Joseph Conboy saved the day,
however, by ordering a mounted police
man to surrender his steed.
In the reviewing stand the places Of
honor were reserved for gold star
mothers and widows of men who died
in service.
Mayor Hylan led his own parade,
which was arranged under the auspices
OF the Cltlzens' Memorial Day Com
mittee of Bushwick and Ridgewood
There were 5000 school children in
this procession and 5000 soldiers and
long line of automobiles filled with
gold star mothers.
This parade started from Freedom
Square, at Bushwick and Myrtle ave
nues, through the streets of Bushwick
and Ridgewood to Irving Park square,
where an address was made by the
grand marshal, Major Curtis F. Clas-
dress. He spoke from the reviewing

dedication of a tablet to the men of
Huntington who served in the World
War, denied "the ignoble assertion tina.

Il denounce as calumny the state

McAdoo. "These men fought because

Declaring that the problem of world
peace was great and ovcrshadowine,
MIR. McAdloo asserted the world was in
many respects in greater urmoil and
misery than when the armistice was
signed-because the United States had
not done its part toward bringing about

possible measure their united coopera.

Rejection of membership in the
League of Nations, he said, was grave
mistake, and he urged its proponents
to endeavor to obtain reconsidera-
tion of the verdict.
He advised entering into an agree
ment with Great Britain and Japan for
a reduction of naval ornaments as an
important step toward relieving bur
dens of taxation felt by all nations.
"Prostrate industry" he declared,
"cannot get upon its feet again, nor
stricken prosperity be brought back to
health, until the crushing burdens of
taxation are m materially reduced.
