Lafayette's Name
Brings Gratitude
Days KEYNOTE

New York, Sept. 6-The country to-
day celebrates Lafayette Marine Day
Many cities have arranged civic cere-
monies appropriate to the day that
marks the birth of Lafayette and the
seventh anniversary of the first bat
tie of the Marine in 1914.
The keynote of the celebration this
year, the Lafayette Day National
committee announced, would be
found in the message of President
Harding to the committee at last
years celebration.
Twice has France contributed to
our liberty" he said. once when
Lafayette came to the aid of America
in her fight for independence, again
when France stood as bleeding bull
wark for the freedom and democracy
of the world against the military on
slaught of an autocracy.
The name of Lafayette brings TO
our hearts the name Of France.-it
calls forever TO our gratitude II the
opportunity ever comes to me win
represent the American people in Civ
ing practical proof of our national
friendship. Our true friendship may
only be effectively expressed in deeds
rather than in words. in a relation
ship that will stand rather than fall.
in workable machinery of interna-
tional goodwill and good faith. Such
relationship can only have perma
hence and value to France when it is
approved not by a part but by the
whole of the American people"
Andrew Jackson, President of the
United States. in his general order Of
Junas21, 1884. announcing to the army
the death of Lafayette. the last sur
viving major general of the War of
the Revolution, said of him his
memory will be second only 10 that Of
Washington in the hearts of the
American people"
