"A short time ago our army re- turned from overseas after having brought victory to the allied cause. Our entrance into the great struggle was predicted upon the principle that the just powers of government are derived from the consent of the gov erned and our aid was accepted by the allies upon the theory that at the close of the war peoples every where should be permitted to deter mine for themselves that character of government under which they shall live Our right not only to sympathize with the people of India and Ireland and Egypt who are strusgitng for the right Of seif-de termination, but to give them active support is conceded by the prom ises of our associates in the great war and sealed by the blood of our soldiers.
 Accordingly we send our sympa- thy to the people of India. and our assurance that we will do all we may to promote the success of their struggle"
 Among the names signed to the message were included. A. B. Booth, adjutant general, of New Orleans; Hon. J. H. Donnell, judge district court, New Orleans; Hon. II, Echza- bal, judge district court. New Or leans: Hon. Joseph T. Lawless, late judge circuit court, Norfolk, Va.
