PARIS Delayed) They work in rain
and snow and mud, often up to their
ankles in the clinging stuff that bogs
down war, but they're the vital cogs in
the miracles of supply, and no combat
soldier could move without them. These
are the engineers, the signalmen, the
port engineers and the men of the
Transportation Corps.
The Service of Supply is vast organ
ization, far greater in size than the men
who actually face the enemy across the
flaming fronts in Europe, yet they get
little publicity. 1t was my privilege to
see them at their grinly tasks; the
engineers repairing roads; the dock men
unloading LISTS and Liberty Ships; the
Transportation Corps manhandling the
vast amounts of war material being
rushed to the front; the signal men
keeping open the lines of communica-
ton; the hospital men and women doing
their jobs behind the lines, and all the
tremendous job of work that is being
done by the SOS in Europe.
The picture is so vast it would take
a voluminous book to even tell portion
Of it. You start, perhaps, at port like
Cherbourg, which in itself is a miracle
Of rehabilitation. You have in mind the
way the port looked when three Amer
ican divisions took 1t on June ~, and
you wondered then If the port ever could
be made useable. You see it now, thou
sands of tons moving across the docks
bound for the front, and you wonder
at the work Of the port engineers who
made all this possible.
You saw in those early days few
pitiful engines On the tracks at Cher
bourg and you see now modern American
locomotives moving the stun of war
directly TO the front That's the work
OF the Transportation Corps.
You see them working In the mud

The Town Whooped>It It. Up
At Cleveland's Inaugural

residence on North Tennessee street,
indianapolis, Wednesday, November Is,
1885, at o'clock in the afternoon. The
news of his death at the time proved a
distinct shock to the people of the coun-
try, irrespective of party Affiliations, for
he was, indeed, greatly beloved by all.
AS the Senate was then controlled by
the Republicans, there was always a
fear among the Democrats that some
thing might happen to the President
which would throw the power of Gov
ernment into the hands of the President
of the Senate pro tenn. Congress later
provided, more specifically, for success
sion to the presidency in case of the
death or disability of that ofIicer and
the Vice President, and now nothing but
a miracle could take away from the
party electing the President the fruits
of its victory.

amount of applause. He was one-armed

writer never saw handsomer or a
more looking man on horseback.
Gen. Lee then wore his heavy black
beard, which he had discarded by the
time he went to Cuba with the Amer
lean Army, and pictures of him taken
after the Cleveland Inauguration usually
show him wearing just mustache.
The Vice Presidents Reception
Another feature of this parade of
lasting memory was the great reception
accorded Vice President Thomas A.
Hendricks. Where Cleveland was only
slightly known outside of the State of
New York, Henricks was known far and
wide. He was not young man, then
being about 66 years old, and had been
before the public for years, was popular
with the masses, and when his carriage
came up the Avenue the applause was
tumultuous. The grand old man of the
Democratic party was kept continually
bowling to the unprecedented crowds
which lined both sides of the Avenue.
The Vice President did not live the
year out, but died very suddenly at his

army in 1919 in the middle Of the civil
war. Graduating from military college,
he became cavalry officer and remain
ed through the internal conflict, serving
on the staff Of the horseman hero,
Kotovsky.
Following the civil war, he was grad

army service, engaged in MILITARY teach

history, especially of the First World
War. Since the outbreak Of this war he
has been an officer of the general staff
at several fronts.
Talensky lives In Moscow with his
wife. He has one son, who is attending
artillery school studying to become .
professional soldier.
The editors hobby is hunting. He
spends his vacations in the country,
hunting and walking in the forests. He
is an incessant reader, preferring the
old Russian authors and the classic
poets, particularly.

by John Clagett Proctor.

The recent changing of the inaugural
scene from the Capitol to the White
House, and the omission Of the usual
spectacular parade on Pennsylvania
avenue, recalls to the writer's mind the
turnout on this famous thoroughfare
on the occasion of the first inaugura-
tion of Grover Cleveland, March 4, 1885.
The Democrats at that time had not
been in Office since the Civil War, and
they did not intend to let the occasion
pass by without whooping it up.
And, indeed, it was marvellous event.
The weather was ideal The sun
beamed its perfect satisfaction upon
the throng in attendance, which jammed
the sidewalks along the Avenue, mill
ing and showing for places of vantage
to see the huge delegation of Tammany
braves and thousands of others in line
who had swarmed down on Washing
ton from nearby places, and others from
q distance who taxed the hotels far
beyond their intended capacity.
OF course, this was not the first in

MOSCOW Delayed Maj. Gen. Nix
olaf Alexandrovitch Talensky, the man
who edits Red Star. newspaper organ
OF the Russian Army, is gentle, smiling
man who reads poetry for Is minutes
every night before he goes to bed.
At 43, Talensky has one of the most
responsible jobs in the Soviet Union,
for Red Star is more than newspaper.
1t Is practically the Bible of the huge
Red Army and is distributed and read
daily from the border Of Greece to the
Pacific and from Amur to the Baltic.
Gen. Talensky says that often one
Red Star writer's ideas do not coincide
with those of its other authors, but this
does not prohibit publication. "Our
writers are, of course, free to express
their own opinions.
"Of course, in wartime we cannot give
too much space to articles that provoke
polemics, but, after the war, such dis
cussions will help our readers make up
Evening star., 1945-01-28

their own minds and form their own
conclusions"
The editor said that his writer's usually
pick their own subjects and comment as
they please, although forums are held
on special subjects and special treat
ments Of subject, Just as in any editorial
office.
An Officers Newspaper
Most persons do not realize that Red
Star is an officers newspaper and is
written more to instruct than to enter
tain. ,..
Red Star is written especially for
young officers" explained Talensky.
These young men are interested in
many questions. An infantry officer is
not only interested in infantry articles.
He's also interested in tanks, artillery
and aviation, with which he co-operates
on the battlefield"
Now, he said. there Is tremendous
interest in foreign countries and foreign
wars.
Because of the war, Red Star has only
four pages. A lot has to be packed into
that space.
The outside pages naturally carry
Marshal Stains orders of the day, his
congratulations to commanders who
have achieved the latest victories They
also display communiques from the
Soviet Information Bureau. That leaves
the two inside pages for other news.
Special articles on military tactics are
must" item.
"Our army wants to laugh and smile,"
Talensky said, "but, to our regret, an
abundance of must material does not
leave much space for entertainment"

residents will probably recall the cross
arms near the top and the recess caused
by the widening of the post about
21a feet from the ground, which helped
to give the boys toehold when they
wanted to climb the post to light their
cigarettes during windy weather or
when matches were scare
The Inaugural Parade
The writer was then a lad, and his
familiarity with climbing these lamp
posts undoubtedly suggested the selec-
ton of this unusual place to get an
unobstructed view of the parade He
did see the parade, and it was the
greatest inaugural parade he ever saw,
and without doubt all who saw it
will agree with. him.
In the files of The Star this state
ment appeared a day or two after the
Inauguration:
"It was the most brilliant, enjoyable
and generally successful occasion of
ernment"
There are certain things which i'm
press themselves upon the human mind
especially the youthful mind that even
time will not erase, and one of the
features Of Cleveland's first Inaugural
ton that the writer has never forgot
ten was the wonderful appearance OF
division of the parade from the Capitol
to Seventeenth street. He was mounted
upon a coal-black charger, and the
two together produced sight most any
one would love to see. Indeed, the

through the division Each saloon and
other places were serenaded. They
upset beer kegs in front of saloons,
threw them into front doors and
changed movable business signs from
one place to another and then dis
persed. All day long the horn blowing
was continued.
Some of the bluecoats repeated their
conduct of four years ago. They would
open their blankets, catch small COL
ored boys and toss them backward and
forward over awning posts, throwing
some of them as high as IL to Is feet
in the air. There was one crowd that
indulged in such conduct and had to
be followed from place to place by an
Evening star., 1945-01-28

soldiers would surround stand or cart
and each would purchase a Scent
quart The small boys knew what was
going to follow and they watched the
peanut soldiers closely until they
would shower the nuts on the crowd.
Then the boys would make a scramble
about the feet of the passersby and
gather up the spoils. The peanuts were
also thrown in store doors and occa-
sionally the crowd would surround some
person and give him an unpleasant time
for few minutes.
Police Kept Busy
Everybody was making complaints
against them, and for a few minutes
riot was threatened. The police dis
persed the crowd but made no arrests.
All the afternoon the police were kept
busy looking after the Pennsylvanians.
Thomas Lotus, one of the Pennsylvania
soldiers, was locked up for carrying a
pistol. John A. King, another of their
number, was arrested on a similar
charge, but was subsequently released. :"
The crowd that came to this city
during the first Cleveland Inauguration
was actually stupendous. The Pennsyl-
yania and Baltimore g. Ohio Railroads
alone brought 1875 1000 persons. while the
Baltimore & Potomac brought in 10000
When We consider the number who
came in by steamboats, and other water
craft and by horse drawn conveyances,
the total attendance might well be put
at around 100000 The expenses of the
Citizens Committee were around $780,
000-a large amount for that period.
The Inaugural Ball
At the inaugural ball, held in the old
Pension Office Building in Judiciary
Square, about seven columns were used
in The Star to mention the distinguished
persons present.
1t might be interesting to many to
turn back the pages of time and give
the names of the principal men who on
this occasion constituted the Inaugural
Committee. and as read over the list
it occurs to me that only a very few
are with us today, the vast majority
being with us only in memory, but as
all were noted Washingtonians the COM
plete list will be given:
