Norman W. Peck, Akron, O., Lieutenant W.A. Gray, Scott Field, Ill., and Lieutenant Max Moyer, arrived in Paris today after having crossed on the steamer President Harding of the United States Lines.

"LA FRANCE IMMORTELLE" In these anxious days, when "the French outlook" is the theme
these anxious days, when "the French outlook" is the theme of so much commentary, often gloomy, it is inspiring to remember Walt Whitman’s ringing prophecy written in 1871 when France was prostrate and exhausted, apparently doomed to final destruction, under the heel of Germany. "Thy Star, O France, fair lustrous star, In heavenly peace, clear, more bright than ever. Shall be immortal. Events have justified the confidence of the grand old poet of democracy. He saw the realities; the despondent— they were as numerous in 1871 as they are now—saw only appearances. If one considers the tragic position of France
only appearances. If one considers the tragic position of France when Walt Whitman confessed his faith with such a stout heart, it should be easy to be optimistic today, when France is victorious, when the immensity of her resources has been revealed, when the French are laboring in peace to create "a world fit to live in" with the resolute courage and unruffled spirit that won the war. There is no necessity to feel uneasy over French politics. For some 2,000 years the French have been solving difficult problems with conspicuous success and there is every reason to believe that
conspicuous success and there is every reason to believe that they will "carry on" in the same successful fashion for another few thousand years. Ministries change; and incoming Ministers may differ radically from outgoing Ministers on points of political doctrine. But the national watchword remains France d’abord! The nation’s representatives may be relied upon to defend the interests of France tenaciously. That fact should reassure all well-meaning peoples, for the vital interests of France are the vital interests of civilization itself. What about the material situation? The difficulties which have yet to be overcome are stupendous. But a glance at
yet to be overcome are stupendous. But a glance at the record of the last five years should uplift, not depress, should bring the conviction that the remaining difficulties will be overcome without provoking a cataclysm. Think of France at the close of 1918, with ten Departments stripped bare, "bled white," by the enemy; scarcely a house intact; the fruit and other trees cut down or blighted; the soil sterilized (the enemy hoped, for all time); the machinery, industrial and agricultural, carried off or deliberately destroyed; then look at that same région today, in a large measure rebuilt, the soil
same région today, in a large measure rebuilt, the soil again rendered productive, the factories re-equipped; the entire work of reconstruction accomplished by the unaided effort of the French and at their expense. Remember the economic condition of French foreign trade at the end of the war, and note its prosperity now. Compare the general economic solidity of France, "bled white," with the economic putrefaction of Germany, though Germany has not suffered from invasion; and she has, so far, shirked payment of her just debts. All the advantages, moral, that goes without saying, but also material, are on the side
goes without saying, but also material, are on the side of France. What other country has grappled with a task so formidable as the one with THE APPEAL OF THE ROSE It is not unpleasant to look into the heart of Springtime. Those in Paris who wish to forget politics and other worries will find at the very gate of the city a real fairyland, where birds chirp and insects drone in a great symphony of color. At Bagatelle, in the Bois de Boulogne, roses are bursting from the greensward. They run riot over groaning trellises and scatter their petals
They run riot over groaning trellises and scatter their petals in a rainbow over the walks and terraces—a garden-land of Greece and Oberon. Bagatelle today is a very paradise on earth, where thousands of varieties of roses are presented by specialists of the world in order to perfect their form and their color THE WORLD’S PRESS American Comment "If Praxiteles' statue of Hermes does make a tour of the United States, it can’t lecture, anyway."— Brooklyn Daily.

English Comment The French political crisis and the London Tube strike divide the attention of London editorial writers this morning. Emphasis is laid on the statement issued by the Labor Press and Trades Unions Congress that the strike has been fomented by Extremists conducting
Congress that the strike has been fomented by Extremists conducting Moscow propaganda. The prospects of a Constitutional conflict in France are viewed with undisguised apprehension. The Daily Express carries flaring headlines: "London held to ransom," and forecasts complete cessation of Tube traffic. Noting that it is the third passenger transport strike in London this year, the Daily Telegraph remarks: — "So far as we know, this is the first occasion on which organized Labor has officially admitted and denounced the existence of Communist agitation as the mainspring of an industrial dispute. It is the opening of a new chapter in
dispute. It is the opening of a new chapter in the already uneasy relations of British Socialism— for both the Labor party and the Trade Union Congress are professedly Socialist—with the more rabid school of revolutionaries who draw inspiration from Moscow; and it will make at any rate for more honesty in those relations. Under the heading “Justice at last,” the Morning Post acclaims the verdict in favor of the former Governor of the Punjab in a lawsuit with a native member of the India Council, the issue turning upon Sir Michael O'Dwyer's support of General Dyer for shooting down
Sir Michael O'Dwyer's support of General Dyer for shooting down the Amritsar rioters, Freudian Commentary. While the great Parisian dailies abstain from commenting on the actual Presidential crisis since it has entered the phase of “actual hostilities,” party organs continue a crossfire of comment, in which the Radical and Socialist organs display the greater heat. The Figaro approves M. Millerand for holding the Presidential fort, comparing him to a brave soldier who may yet save his country by remaining at his post. The Gaulois regards the whole conflict as another evidence of failure on the part of the Parliamentary régime.
evidence of failure on the part of the Parliamentary régime. Confirmation of this view is indirectly afforded from the opposite camp, the Œuvre giving prominence to an article which propounds the doctrine that the Republic, which it identifies with Radicalism, must be synonymous with the Constitution of “Pertinax,” writing in the Echo de Paris, points out the present weakness of Parliamentary Governments in every country, not excluding the American Continent, and comes to the conclusion that Signor Mussolini is the only head of an administration that is really able to direct the affairs of his country. Which France has struggled,
direct the affairs of his country. Which France has struggled, not unsuccessfully, in the last five years? In what other country is the public spirit so reasonable, comfort so general, wealth so evenly distributed? Even in the most industrialized centers there is, in France, nothing resembling the sordid, grinding poverty that fouls the big cities elsewhere in Europe. Bear in mind, also, the amazing fertility of the soil; the industry, skill, and ingenuity of the population. If French products are so universally prized it is because the French artisan is incomparably adroit and painstaking. And among the solid buttresses of
incomparably adroit and painstaking. And among the solid buttresses of confidence, is the mineral wealth of France: it is calculated that the iron-ore alone represents in value a sum far exceeding the total amount of the French national debt. And do not overlook the hundreds of thousands of foreign visitors who are attracted to France annually by a mild climate, lovely scenery, art treasures, good cheer, including wines of perfect quality, and agriculture noted for its abundance. Does not such a balance sheet inspire confidence? In view of the past, how is it possible to doubt the power of France
how is it possible to doubt the power of France to ride out the storm safely? There are still many and great difficulties, of course, but they do not detract from the confidence that the future of France is among the brightest of any country in the world. Romance of the MS The romance of the unearthing by Dr. Fellows of the last MS of the “Great Service” by William Byrd had a fitting climax the other day in the rendition of the work in the ancient Cathedral of Newcastle, England.

England. Although probably the best appreciated of the great composer’s works in his lifetime, it had fallen completely out of sight, and its existence unknown even to scholars until it was come upon by Dr. Fellows, who has re-discovered so many of the works of the 16th and early 17th Century English composers. In the light of this performance, “The Great Service” is certainly one of the finest of Byrd’s productions, and it is a rich example of his power to gain simplicity of effect even though the means employed are exceedingly elaborate. Byrd frequently contents himself with a plain,
are exceedingly elaborate. Byrd frequently contents himself with a plain, single statement. At other times he will repeat a sentence over and over again, with ever-growing intensity in the music, as at the close of the Te Deum, where, at the words “let me never be confounded” the phrases are piled one on top of the other with climax upon climax, as if the suppliant would literally compel the answer to his prayer. Tourist’s First Day in Paris Ten thirty in the morning at one of the busiest squares in Paris. A smart looking auto car filled with eager Americans
Paris. A smart looking auto car filled with eager Americans and English—a loquacious guide and they were off for a sight-seeing trip of the world’s capital. First along the Rue de la Paix, where the women heaved sighs as they thought of the “perfect dreams” of gowns that would make them at once the delight and despair of the folks “back home”—then the Place Vendôme, which, for the benefit of the men, the guide observed might one day be known by the up-to-the-minute but unhistoric name of “Place des Banques”. First Day in Paris. It was the first day in
First Day in Paris. It was the first day in Paris for many of them, but they all wore the look of the seasoned, determined tourist. Mark Twain’s Italian guide would have held up his hands in despair. A few years ago it was perfectly proper tourist etiquette to enthuse and exclaim and even be poetic. But now the tourist seems to put on an armor against any onslaughts on his emotions. Not a murmur as they went through the beautiful Tuileries Garden now at its loveliest—merely a look of passive content and strict attention to the guide while a
