HARMONY OF ALLIES
ARMISTICE DAY NOTE
DR.. Butler Voices Plea for
Better Understanding
Among Nations.
MANY SERVICES HELD
Consul General Liebert
Says France Will Pay
Debts to Everyone.
BISHOP FOR CLEAN SLATE
Exercises i'm Audubon Theater
Typical Of Those by Va
riOus Bodies.

A plea for a more peaceful and un-
derstandIng relationship between the
United States and her former allies
abroad, especially France. was made
yesterday by Nicholas Murray Butler
at the Armistice services of the CheI-
sea Methodist Episcopal Church, held
in the Audubon Theater, 165th street
and Broadway. CASTOR Liebert, French
Consul-General In New York, also
spoke. telling the large audience that
France to-day is the victim of cam
paign Of insidious propaganda more
dangerous'than it was during the war,
and asking that Americans retain for
his country the affection which was
expressed so forcibly during the war.
The theater was filled long before
the services started. The program was
arranged with special reference to the
French people, and largo numbers of
French men and women attended.
Other speakers included Bishop Edgar
Blake Of Paris, Bainbridge Colby form
er Secretary of state. and the Rev.
Christian +. Reisner. pastor Of the
church. Leon Rothier of the Metropoli-
tan Opera House and Julia Arthur also
were on the program. The Municipal
Band gave a short concert and played
Incidental music during the services.
This meeting was one of the largest
Of the numerous services held through
out the city yesterday to commemorate
the signing of the armistice four years
ago Saturday. and virtually every
church had some special observance,
many veterans posts and patriotic sicie-
ties also holding meetings. In st. Paul S
Chapel at Columbia University MEM
bers of the Come Back Club, all dis
abled veterans studying at the unlver-
sty, attended their annual service in a
body and in uniform. The Willard A.
Rascom Post Of tho American Legion
held services in tho Union Y. NJ. G. A..
470 East l61st street. and many other
ceremonies were held in the day and
last night.
Dr. Butler told his audience in the
Audubon Theater that instead of "A real
peace since the signing of the armistice
we have had merely laying down OF
arms and that the world Is filled with
more strife to-day than 1t ever was be-
fore. He advocated an internat tional
slogan Of Service First" TO supplant the
motto of safety First" which he char
acterized as the motto of every moral
and physical coward"
Consul General Liebert gave figures
showing that France has rebuilt virtu-
ally four-ffths OF her devastated terri
tory and Is on the road to complete
rehabilitation. He then told of the tre-
mendous debt and said France Is not

common people said to themselves and
their leaders. America is always fair.
We mustsbe wrong or else she would
not enter the contest against us. We
had better settle the war at once. Then
when the fourteen articles were offered
they further said. This is a fair propo-
sition. We must accept it, And so
the fighting spirit was taken out OF
them by their confidence in the justice
OF America. Thus America settled the
war by entering It, We do not feel
therefore that America is treating
Europe fairly when after coming In
under such circumstances she starts the
job and then forsakes us in our terrible
extremity. Since America settled the
war. she ought to help mend the wreck
age that caused the war If she was
utterly unselfish in coming in we can
not understand how she can retain the
same unselfish spirit and withdraw
now"

BISHOP MANNING SAYS

Bishop William T. Manning devoted
much of an Armistice Day sermon at the
Cathedral of ST. John the Divine yester-

Bishop Manning said he does not agree
with those who say that since the war
the country has fallen completely from
her high ideals. He thinks spiritual
progress has been made since the armis-
tice.
'I believe" he said, that in spite of

DEAN BELIEVES NATION
RETURNING TO IDEALS
DR.. Robbins Says Eclipse
Lasted Three Years.

America is coming out of the three
year eclipse of idealism. the turn coming
a twelvemonth age with the calling OF
the Washington conference and the corr
ageous initiative taken by Secretary
Hughes in the matter OF disarmament.
declared Dean Howard Chandler Rob
bins of the Cathedral OF St. John the
Divine, in an address at the Armistice
Day service in the st. Paul Chapel Co
lunlbia University.
The fear, the insularity, the short
sighted selfishness that demanded an
impossible isolation from world affairs"
said Dean Robbins. are gradually CIV
ing place to a sober. earnest, reason
able hope that our country may take a
helpful. Influential and possibly decisive
part in solving the common problems, in
bearing the common burdens and in de-
termining the common destinies of man
kind.
For three years following the signing
of the armistice." continued the Dean,
1--WE suffered from an eclipse of idealism
that chilled and darkened the spirit OF
the nation. 1t was partly an inevitable
reaction after q great forthputtng Of
physical and moral energy, partly due
to partisan disputes and chickering's, and
1t was also due in part. l think. to an
preaching cant, or exaggeration or unre-
ality.
Certainly we have been putting our
worst foot forward, as far as foreign re-
lations are concerned. Hardness. cold
ness, unwillingness to cooperate with our
former associates in the war have found
voluble expression The men who least
represented what was noble in the ma
tion's thought and life were the most
vocal; the truly representative kept si-
lence.
But now. thank God. we are coming
oIt of that long eclipse! There are indi-
cations on every hand that our country
is preparing to take UP again with faith
and with courage the tasks and RESPONSE
biIities OF leadership. Old standards OF
service to the world are being raised
again and men are repairing to them
Old watchwords of honor and of duty
are being spoken again and men are not
asha amed to repeat them"
