years has been president of the AL

His position Is only about as politically
powerful as that of the French presi-

Russian president is mediator, cham

SOlEMNlTY MARKS CEREMONY
OF TRIBUTE TO FALLEN
OF FRANCE.
Western Newspaper Union News Service

Paris.-The United States paid its
highest tribute to the dead soldiers of
France when Gen. John j. Pershing.
In the presence of an immense throng,
Including President Millerand and
other high officials of the republic,
laid the congressional medal of hon.
or upon the tomb of the unknown
poilu under the Arch of Triumph. A
military review, second in size only to
the historic Victory parade, followed
the ceremony. a picked battalion of
American troops from the forces on
the Rhine led the parade, which was
reviewed by President Millerand, Cen
eral Pershing, Ambassador Herrick
and all the marshals of France.
Before placing the decoration on the
unknown soldiers tomb, General
Pershing stood before it at salute for
several minutes. Then, In Il voice
shaking with emotion, he declared:
I'm the name of the President and
of the people of the United States, as
a token of our perpetual belief in the
righteousness of the cause for which
you died, and as a mark of respect
and admiration to you and to your
countrymen, 1 place this congress
sional medal of honor upon your
tomb"
The American headquarters band
from Coblenz then played The Mar
seillaise' and 1.-THE Star-Spangled
Banner
General Pershing's speech made a
profound impression, upon the assemb-
lage and brought tears to many eyes.
Referring to the unknown as Soldier
of France. dear friend and my COM
rade," the general said:
in your noble life and in your trag-
ic death you have become to the world
an immortal symbol of devotion to the
highest ideals of mankind. Your val
or on many fields will ever remain an
inspiration to living mothers who
weep over your grave as they recall
the heroism of their own brave sons.
"Your allied comrades remember
with deep emotion how you cheered
them as you fell. They praise your
gallant deeds while they enew their
vows of allegiance to the principles
for which o fought. Dear friend,
your battle Is over. You sleep quietly
amid the noisy traffic of a great city.
For you, the victory is won. You
gave your last drop of your life's
blood for liberty and in the glorious
sacrifice of your youth was born the
hope of those you left behind. In
your heart there is malice toward
none, but CHARITY for all. 1t is this
spirit n this alone which will estab-
lish confidence among nations.
