QUIET HERE

A decade ago today. on Good Fri.
day In 1917. an epochal day in the
Christian world, the Congress Of
the United States by an overwhelm.
ing vote threw the flower Of Ameri.
can manhood into the greatest con-
flict in history in an effort to stop
. juggeTnaut, seemed destined
then TO run rampant Nter the face
Of the earth.
Today the tenth anniversary Of
the declaration Of war against Ger
many passed almost unnoticed IN
the Capital.
Most of the principal actors In
the great drama of April s. 1917,
have passed from the stage Of
worldly affairs-W oodrow Wilson,
Senator Cabot Lodge, Claude
Kitchin, the Democratic leader of
the House, who cried as he cast
his vote against the declaration;
the authors of the war resolution,
Senator Martin, CD of Virginia,
and Representative Flood CD of
Virginia, and others of lesser re-
nown.
Days Of Contrast
II was a rare spring day in Wash.
ington. in contrast to the chill April
rain that marked Americas entry
into the war ten years ago this
date.
The memory Of that day, and
the increasing sorrow and horror
that followed In its wake. of the
manned, languishing In hospitals,
and long rows Of white crosses end
grave markers on both sides of
the sea, is altogether too vivid to
permit of display or celebration.
The big parade" is over. The
world voiced its thanks for the
armistice with universal holiday
and q matchless aba ndon and then
settled down to- pray that 1t never
happen again.
An hour before midnight, April
4. 1917. the Senate passed a resolu.
ton declaring a tsate OF war ex.
listed. The vote was IS to s.
The next morning at 10 o'clock,
Holy Thursday, the resolution went
to the House and after IL hours
and 5 minutes passed that body at
s:i5 =. m. April Z. The vote was
37s to 50.
Later that day, despite talk that
war would not be declared on
Good Friday. the anniversary of the
death of the Prince of Peace. Presi.
dent Wilson signed the declaration
Of war and the big parade" was
on its way.

a degree Of solemnity, fresh in

day was thrown about a meeting
held yesterday between the District
Commissioners and d groIp of
friends of NJ. o.. Eld9idge. who was

sentatives Thomas L. Barton of

than an hour. Daniel E. Garges.

the Commissioners refused to even
intimate what took place or why

Commissioners
1t is believed that the selection of
a new Director of Traffic. was con-
sidered but it cannot be learned
whether any decision was reached.
REPRESENTATIVE Blanton IL EIdridse's

repeatedly defended him against
criticism.
