=, Washington-Declaring anew his
confidence in the vitality of the
League of Nations former President
Wilson warned an impromptu gath
ering at his home on S street that
those who opposed, the League will
have to "look out for themselves"
A motion made by "a man in the
audience at a meeting of the Wood
row Wilson foundation that those
present pay their respects to the for
mer chief executive, led to spon-
taneous pilgrimage Of several thou
sand admirers and friends of Mr.. Will
son through two miles of slushy
streets to his residence. There the
crowd increased and swiftly resolved
itself into an enthusiastic demonstra-
ton. -, '-
Gompers Is Spokesman.
Mr.. Wilson's remarks were in reply
to Samuel Gompers, president of the
American Federation of labor, who
acting as spokesman for the crowd,
had declared that it's presence offered
proof that the League of Nations was
not dead.
II need hardly tell you how such a
demonstration Of friendship and con-
fidence makes me feel,'' Mr.. Wilson
replied. There can be no doubt of
the vitality Of the League of Nations.
1t will take care Of itself, and those
who do not regard it will have no
anxiety for it. My only anxiety is to
see our great people turn their faces
in the right direction and move with
all their force. L thank you for' all
{ this. I don't deserve it, but I enjoy
; it, nevertheless. y .. .
The former President was assisted
to the door by Mrs. Wilson, who
shared with him the plaudits of the
crowd. >s,. + :.sE ,~%z -
Mr.. Wilson'S voice, while lacking
the volume; Of his more vigorous days,
was strong enough to carry to most
of those who jammed the street ; in
front of his home At one point when
the cheers became ESPECIALLY vocifer.
GUS, Mr.. Wilson made a motion as
though he intended to walk down the
steps and shake hands with those
nearest, but he was restrained by
Mrs. Wilson.
The march from the theater was
led by Senators Walsh of Montana,
Fletcher Of Florida and Harris of
Georgia. The motion which led to
the pilgrimage was adopted unani-
mously at thecmeeting which had been
addressed by Mr.. Gompers, DR.. Sam,
