ROOSEVELT VIEWS
ARMY DAY PARADE
Celebration Brings CoIorfuI
Display of Military and
Patriotic Units.

Washington was the center of all
Army day celebrations today as a pa
rade of 81 military and patriotic units
assembled in the vicinity of Peace
Monument shortly before 1870 o'clock
to dip their colors in salute to the
Commander in Chief of Americas
armed forces, President Roosevelt, as he
reviewed the colorful line of march from
the presidential stand on Constitution
avenue at Sixteenth street.
Throughout the Corps Areas Of the
United States similar observances on a
smaller scale we're commemorating to-
day the sixteenth anniversary of this
Nations entrance into the World War
in acknowledgment of the Army's
achievements in peace as in war. De-
spite warm April showers earlier in the
day, the preparations for this gala
observance in the National Capital
went forward without interruption.
White House Prepared.
President Roosevelt, accompanied
probably by Mrs. Roosevelt and mem
bers of their family, was prepared to
leave the White House for the short
drive to the reviewing stand In time to
arrive Just as the head of the parauc

ania avenue and turns south to round
the corner Of Constitution avenue. In
the reviewing stand with the COM
mander in chief will be Secretary of
War George H. Dern, Gen. Douglas
Macarthur chief of staff of the Army;
Ehtll n q /,
of the Marine Corps, and other high
military officials.
Whether the President would remain
until practically the last unit has
passed. as he did during the inaugural
parade on March 4, or leave after the
first of the four grand divisions passes
was not known early today. This would
depend upon weather conditions, 1t was
believed.
Maj. Gen. Paul B. Malone, veteran
of the immortal I'd Division of World
War fame and commander of the Sd
Corps Area of the Army, was the grand
marshal of the parade, which is the
largest military show of its kind held
in the Capital for many a year. This
official observance of Army day was
sponsored by the Military Order of
the World War, with the cooperation

with the annual banquet of the Military
Order of the World war at 7:30 o'clock
in the Mayfower Hotel. Gen. Malone
will be the principal speaker and many
military episodes have been planned
during the course of the banquet.
Close Formation Ordered.
Marching in the close formation of
Regular Army troops, the units were
grouped in four divisions commanded
by Brig Gen. Perry L. Miles, Maj. Gen.
Anton Stephan, Lieut. Col George E.
Iiams and Brig. Gen. William E.
Horton. AS during the inaugural pa
rade, the colors were massed at the

Is Fourth of Chain to
Be Victimized.

Five bandits, two of them armed with
sawed-of shotguns and two carrying
revolvers, held up the Washington Me-

the four employees on duty.

their guns, ordered every one to the

she collapsed again in hall separating

Although the bank, like other
branches of the Washington Mechanics,
was equipped with tear gas devices,
the robbers moved so swiftly that none
OF the employees was able to get within
striking distance of the control.
j. G. Williams, teller, attempted to
set off the gas, but one of the bandits,
prodding him with a revolver, ordered
him to step back"
Loss Is Insured.
The same robber forced Williams to
open the vault while the other bandits
compelled the other employees to line
up against the rear wall
While the customers were being
forced to the rear, one of the robbers
climbed over the counter At the same
time, another strode to the back, opened
the gate leading behind the counter
and closed In from the rear, while the
other man stationed himself toward the
front

OFFICIALS RUSHED
BY BEER DEALERS
Permits to Handle Beverage
Here Limited to Already
Established Places.

The rush for permits to sell beer,
which began last night after President
Roosevelt had affixed his signature to
the Palmisano-Tydings beer bill, con-
tinued today as applicants besieged
the District Beverage Board and the
superintendent Of licenses for the pa
pers which will allow them to sell beer
of 80 per cent alcoholic content after
midnight tonight.
A last-minute change in the beer
regulations was adopted by the Com
missioners to prohibit the sale of beer
by restaurants within 200 feet Of
churches. Under the new regulations,
such permits will be issued only to
restaurants In existence when the act
takes effect and then only If the restau-
rant does not also come within 200 feet
Of q public, private or parochial school.
Although any one with permit can
sell beer In the District Immediately
after the clock has struck II tonight,
DR.. Luther H. Reichelderfer, president
Of the Board of Commissioners stressed
the fact that the law will be strictly
enforced, and that no one will be al
lowed to sell unless the license Is ac-
tually in his possession. The Beverage
Board was working at top speed to get
the licenses out to qualified places dur
ing the day. When they are issued
they will be sent to the establishments
by policemen.
Dance to Test Law.
The first legal test of the new law
apparently will come at midnight when
beer will be "given away" at a so-css.ed
beer inaugural BALI at the Washing
ton Auditorium promoted as a money
making venture Corporation Counsel
William w. Bride has held that under
the act and regulations, this would be
illegal. The regulations make the gift
of beer at a dance to which an admiS-
sion fee Is charged sale" Since all
violations Of the act or regulations must
be prosecuted by the United States at
torney, however, the Commissioners
turned the matter over to District At
torney Leo A. Rover.
Mr.. Rover later announced that any
one at the ball serving, selling or giving
away beer will be arrested. Paul c.
McElroy, in charge Of the so-called ball,
said that he was willing to meet the
issue, as he believed the courts would
never sustain such a construction of
the act.
Under the law, the Auditorium can
not be given an ION sale" license be-
cause 1t Is not a restaurant, hotel or
bona f1de incorporated club, and "off

to drink the beer at the ball.
At midnight also two cases Of beer
will be on their way to the White House,
the gift of a local brewery.
A hardware store was included with
those that received an "off sale" license.
