GREATEST PARADE IN HISTORY
American Legion Parade in Kansas
City Greatest Since the Days
of Lincoln.

What officials said was the great
est procession of marching men in
this country since President Lincoln
reviewed the victorious union armies
passed before the eyes of five allied
military leaders at Kansas City on
Monday.
1t was the parade of the American
Legion and the spectacle came as a
climax to the Legion's national con-
vention AS a mark of respect of
their elders, the Legionaires had in
vited members of the Grand Army
of the Republic. United Confederate
Veterans and Spanish War Veterans
to participate and heroes of ga and
'9S did their best to keep step with
the youngsters who wore olive drab
and navy blue.
When the long procession swung
into line it was led by the five men
whose names figured prominently in
spelling the defeat OF the Central
empires-Foch of France, Dlaz of
Italy, Jacques of Belgium. Beatty
of Great Britain. and Pershing.
At Eighteenth street, and Grand
avenue, where a reviewing stand
was located, the five leaders and
their staff dropped out of the line,
mounted the platform and reviewed

TuMuLTY ON WILSON

Joseph Tumulty, who served as
secretary to Woodrow Wilson while
the latter was president, has written
story which some newspapers are
running in serial form concerning
the work of his chief
In this story Tumulty seeks to an
swer all the criticisms which have
been directed toward the work of
Mr.. Wilson as president. He tries to
show that in all his decisions Mr..
Wilson was governed by the evil
dence in hand and not by personal
whims.
without a doubt Mr.. Tumulty
will present a good paper showing.
He is capable lawyer, schooled in
the art of preparing briefs. Some of
Napoleon's biographers could see no
faults in their hero. No matter what
he did, they found excuses for its
doing. Tumulty is playing a SIM
liar role in the case of Wilson.
The tenor of this Tumulty story Is
revealed in it's first chapters. He
explains Wilson's failure to give Col
onel Roosevelt place in the army
because his application was not ap-
proved by regular army officers. He
explains the failure OF General Wood
to be sent to France in command OF
the Eighty-ninth division as blum
der on the part of General March.
This story will probably SATISFY
the strong Wilson admirers, but it
will make no converts to the cSsase
of Mr.. Wilson. The refusal 20 Place
Colonel Roosevelt a, the head of a
division of volunteers could have
been justified because 1t was not
approved by jealous regular army
men. But Tumulty does not go TO
the root of this proposition. Roose-
welt received nothing from the Will
son administration by premeditated
and studied neglect. Tumulty knows
that one of the slogans of democrat
ic politicians in Washington and in
the country as a whole when the
war broke out was that Roosevelt
shall have no recognition from this
administration. He received none.
There were literally scores of oppor-
tunities aside from that of division
commander in the A. E. F. where
Wilson could have used Roosevelt to
his own and the advantage OF the
country.
The facts are that McCombs. for
merly chairman of the national DEM
ocratic committee, has written a
most scathing criticism of Wilson.
In his articles ON the subject Wilson
is set forth as one of the most selfish
men in all history. And McCombs
furnishes a wealth of evidence TO
sustain his arguments. Tumulty is
trying in his defense to serve as a
foil for Wilson. He hopes in some
measure to break the tremendous
force OF the McCombs articles.

FAMOUS BLACK BEAUTY

More than nine hundred and ninety
nine out of every thousand stories
which enjoyed some degree of pop
uIarity more than forty years ago
have been utterly forgotten. The
thousandth, read and remembered by
generation after generation, holds a
warmer place In the heart OF mankind
than any newly published book can
reach. s
For that reason, books which have
stood the test of time have ben
sought eagerly by motion picture con-
Germs. In many cases stories written
in past centuries have been modern
!, ized in some degree. Occasionally
this seems excusable. but in some In
stances ii is highly Objectionable.

adhered absolutely to the work as
