NEW YORK, Oct. 12- President Wilson, commander-in-chief of the American army and navy, marched today at the head of the American forces In the Columbus-Liberty day parade, one or the most Impressive and inspiring spectacles New York has ever seen. Under a canopy formed by the flags of 22 nations arrayed against autocracy and with squadrons of Am erican airplanes hovering overhead, the president strode with 23.000 fighting men from five continents and islands in every sea over the en tire three-mile line of march -along the "Avenue pf the Allies." Then at the foot of Fifth avenue, beside the Washington arch, he took his placo in an automobile and revlewea the lone column. The spectators, whose number the police estimated at more than a mil lion, never ceased cheering. From the minute they. caught sight of the sbiaine silk bat which proclalmea the approach of the nation's chief evecutlvp natll they lost eight of It tn tneaitance. me men ana wouwb who lined the avenue and sought a vantage point on every housetop hardly paused for breath. ' It seemed as If the city had gone mad. In according Mr. Wilson what pro bably was the greatest ovation a president of the United States ever had received, men threw their hats Into the air and yened themselves hoarse, while babies were hoisted on their father's shoulders that they might tell. In the years hence of the day they saw the president march. Women clapped their hands franti cally and embraced strange men in the exuberance of Joy, while small boys broke through the police lines to get a better view of the nation's leader. ' It was the second time the presi dent had marched in a parade down Fifth avenue, but when he opened the last Red Cross capalgn he head ed a great army of mercy, while to day he led a grim legion of fighting men and behind them dragged by mo tor trucks and tractors, great guns wrested from- the Germans. It was a stern procession, lypimag - iorce to the utmost." At the head of, the line were de tachments of fighting men represent ing 22 nationalities. .They came from countries that are fighting to retain their freedom and they came from races that are fighting to be free. Bemedalled heroes of the French foreign legion, picturesque Italian Alplnl and Ilersaglierl. -veteran An ises, battle-scarred Rrltlsh Tommies. Serbs, gallant Belgians and swarthy Spanish-Americana, in uniforms which made a riot of color, marched proudly behind the banners of the nations which are fighting autocracy Behind the foreign divisions marched women war workers. Red Cross nurses, ambulance drivers munition makers, police women and farmerettes Next In line were the American military and naval forces: led by the commander-in-chief of more than 3,000,000 bayonets, for although: It was expected that the president would take his place at the very head of the column, it seemed that ' he preferred to march directly In front of his own nation's fighting men. Ana a ragged force It was re c- Iment after regiment of lnfantrr. ar tillery of engineers with detachments irom.au tne otner branches which go to make tip an army, followed bv thousands of blue Jackets from Am erica's fleets. With the armr and navy divisions tnarched 5000 steve dores and thousands of others en gaged in tKe army transport service. The foreign veterans who preceded them had been . cheered until ; it seemed that the crowd must have reached lis vocal limit, but when Pershing's veterans soldiers and marines appeared, the cheering In creased as If from musketry fire to artillery bombardment. At the sight of the beautiful he roes wno naa fought and bled at inateau Thierry and" Ilellean wood to help save Prl from the Huns, the crewa went wild with enthusiasm. Tne empty sleeves and turned-np irouser legs or these gallant yoanr sters brought borne to New Yorkers that war is something more than marching men and-martial music There were tears la many eyes as American wounded rode on guns and uincr ragiaea or resiruciions cap tured by the Americans in their ad vance through France. But while in. throngs who watched them suf icred ror them fM-rause of their wounds and paid tribute to their ho rofm, on the shining young fares, aglow with pride, there was no sign of grtrf over sacrifices made for the love or country. Poor and Rich Are Appealed to By Ihe Secretary of the Treasury PERSHING NEEDS HELP Money for Sinews of War Mast Come From Great Heart of Nation The number of accidents of rer- sons traveling along the streets on Sunday from celuslons with motor cars Is increasing, but we havo -not yet read of anything along that line happening to a man quietly sitting in his church pew. Exchange. . CHICAGO. Oct.. 12. William Mc Adoo, secretary or the treasury, ad dressed an appeal to the rich and poor of the nation alike to make a supreme effort to brine the liberty loan subscriptions to the required $(,000,000,000 level In a speech be fore more than IQofl persons at mass meeting tonight. "If our home army falls to put the fourth liberty loan over he de clared. "It .will contradict everythinn our soldiers are doing. It will be a new Incentive to Germany to keep on fighting and It will be a confes- lon In America of humiliating ana disastrous failure. Our soldiers are winning victories with their Wood and heroism. Shall we at home turn their victories Into defeats? Nol Pershing has the Germsns on the run snd we are going to lash the backs of the fleeing enemy until. the vic tory Is complete. Pershing needs locomotives and rails to follow up our victories, and part of the money of the fourth lib erty loan wtTl be used tn scad them to him. It takes American locomo tives now to keep p with the flee ing Germans. Let us see to It at home that the necessary locomotive are provided for the chase We may as well send our American soldiers in first class trains to Berlin, Instead of having them march that long dis tance on foot- "The fact that only one week re mains to subscribe the, fourth lib erty loan and that we are still short 13,500.000.000 makes It necessary for us to consider some of the spe cific things thst must be done to win success. Many families, for instance. think they have done their full duty when the head ot the family sub scribes for bonds, but the head of the family has not done his full duty unless he has bought all of the bonds he can pay for Immediately and in the near future. If the wife Is able to buy bonds and has not done so she should buy them immediately; If the children are able to buy bonds and have not done so they should buy Immediately. Wives and child ren have as much interest In liberty and in security of life and property as husbands. In every family the question should be Immediately re viewed and additional subscriptions made to liberty bonds as far as it Is possible to do so. "A word particularly to the far mers: They did splendid work In the third liberty loan, but they must do more In the forth liberty loan. Far mers have not yet sold their crops and may not have the ready money te y for bonds immediately. But they are selling their crops right , along and will soon have the money to invest in liberty bonds. Each and j every farmer in the United Sta'eaj should subscribe for liberty bonds J now and pay for them when he has sold his crops. lie can buy bonds! on the Installment plan and banks ought to carry the farmers and ev ery other class of people on their sub scriptions until they can pay thm The banks owe It to the country to still further demonstrate their pa triotism by lending. money to all subscribers to liberty bonds at the same rate of Interest the bonds bear, namely. 4 per cent. The banks can afford to do thla and It is their duty to do this. We must not pe nalize the patriotism oMb uhiM. bers to liberty bonds by charging them higher rates of lntmrt t.n the government pays them. nat i have aald about the duty of farmers to buy on the installment ma applies to every class of our people, rich and poor and of moder ate means alike, la the third lib erty loan there wero 18.000,000 sub- imrs 10 si.ouo.ooo.OOO of bonds.
