peace is an end. I have seen while In
the line 100000 young men fall on the
fed Of battle and 1,5OO. 900 Of these were
Frenchmen. In the presence OF these
hecatombs can any one argue in favor
Of war?
France did not wish war In 1914 and
no one wishes war today. Every one to-
day wishes peace 1t is our duty to
maintain and enforce q just peace. If
we desire the formula II IS the same as
during the war-uniOn, a united effort for
q Just peace, the Unior 1 know you all

the people Of Indiana was responsible
Afor the victory of the American troops"
" he said. 1T was expressed when Cen

tiers shortly after I assumed command Of
the allied armies and told me that the
troops were at my disposal"
Marshal FOeh spoke IN French, his re-

band, the Rt Rev. Monsignor Francis
II. Gavisk pronounced the invocation.
Governor Warren T. McCray was then
presented by DR.. Carlton B. McCuIloch,
chairman of the general committee who
presided. In part Governor McCray said
