Ranked in orderly, soldierly col umns on the bronze tablets beneath the mighty shaft these comrades have raised to them their names are set forth that men from all time may know of their supreme sacrifice for the flag. It was the tugging hand of a hero comrade, weighed down with his own battle wounds, that tore aside the last curtain \vhich obscured the serene, beauty of the tribute to the valor, written in stone and bronze. “It is tribute of reverence and sorrow to more than 5,000 of our immortal dead from those who knew and loved them,” President Coolidge said * n dedicating the memorial. “The figure of winged victory rises above the scrolls of imperishable bronze on which are inscribed alone the ennobled names of those who foil and through their deathless valor left us free "Other soldiers, generals and pri vates, officers and men, rank on rank of illustrious fame, are re corded here. They live. The dead reign here, alone. A Symbol of Tragedy “This monument commemorates no man who won anything by the war. It ministers to no aspirations for place or power. But i* challenges attention to the cost, the suffering and sacrifice that may be demanded of any generation so long as na tions permit a resort to war to settle their disputes. It is symbol of aw ful tragedy, ’of unending sorrow’ and of stern warning. The final lesson which it imparts is the blessing of peace, the supreme blessing of peace with honor. “If any one doubts the depth and sincerity of the of the American people to their institu tions and government—let them gaze upon this monument and other like memorials that have been reared in every quarter of our broad land. Let them look upon the representa tive gatherings of our veterans, and let them remember thaj America has dedicated itself to the service of God and man.” Up the same wide avenue where its victory pageant unrolled itself just, a few short years ago. the first division came again to march its veteran legions today, that full hon or should be done to fallen comrades, wherever they sleep. They moved through a thinning haze of morn ing fog that draped trees and build ings in soft-toned clouds as the troops and the marching veterans tramped by. And again they found crowding thousands all along the way to greet the rumbling guns and the thick-ranked host of marching men. Youngsters of the army today led the way; men who now fill up the historic regiments of the first divi sion. and who wear on khaki shoul ders the braided cords that testify to the valor of the legions who have passed before them through these same ranks and whose glorious tra ditions these younger sons of the flag now carry on. Behind the massed bands of the division and stepping to the same rollicking tunes that drew onward the tired feet of the men who fought under the same flags in France, first came the com posite regiment from the Sixteenth and Eighteenth infantry of today. They were trim in khaki and brass and stepping proudly in their youth, with here and there among them stern-faced veteran regulars who still serve with the old regiments. Many Back in “('ivies" Behind these came the spotless guns and gun teams of the sixth artillery, rolling forward to pay their last thundering salute to the fallen, then the veterans no longer in the armies, officers and men walking shoulder to shoulder now under the standards that proclaimed them to b” all of the war-time sixteenth or eighteenth. the twenty-sixth or twenty-eighth, the sixth or seventh or fifth artillery or first engineers or sonic other unit of the fightirig first division of 1917-19. Some wore ( again the old uniform, but most were in civilian clothes of varying hue and cut. “But those lads are soldiers still.” said one old army sergeant as he watched the veterans tramp by. "See the straight backs and see ’em keep ; their step. They've not forgot, those ( boys." t'p past the tall monument the I procession rolled to deploy out over I the grass and under the trees and i form a living wall of khaki about the scene. On the platform at the WRECKING OF IW BY G. 0. P. SCORED By JOHN W. DAVIS Democratic Nominee Is Giv en Warm Welcome at Providence Rally PROVIDENCE, R. 1., Oct. 5.—“1 am firmly convinced that this is a Democratic year,” said John W. Da vis, the Democratic nominee for president, speaking lust night to a crowd that filled Infantry hall here and gave the candidate a noisy wel come. “The reason I say this,” added Mr. Davis, “is that I have traveled as far as the Rocky mountains re cently, and found a spirit of unrest as pervasive, clear and definite as ever before in American political history. Men are distrustful and dissatisfied. They feel their govern ment no longer functions in their interest. A phenomenon so great must be founded on facts.” Mr. Davis was introduced by Pat rick H. Quinn, Rhode Island na tional committeeman. Referring to the Republican ad ministration, Mr. Davis said there were claims that the party had been reorganized. “But they’re doing the same old business,” shouted a njan in the audience. The nominee dwelt on the Re publican record since 1921,. the tar iff, the veterans’ bureau and the agricultural depression, which he attributed to lack of European mar kets, consequent upon the Republic an foreign policy. Mr. Davis criticized the Repub licans for exaggerating the im portance of the Washington naval conference and accused them of hav ing failed to maintain a navy up to the standard fixed in the treaty. “I am willing to accept naval equality with Great Britain,” he said, “but I am not willing to ac cept naval inferiority to any power. The secretary of the navy has con fessed that the navy has sunk to a point barely above that of Japan.” “What have we done to lead the world into paths of reconstruction and peace in the last five years?” asked Mr. Davis. “What contribu tion have we made to restore the economic life of those across the sc i who were, in days gone by, and must be in days to come, our largest customers? “When I speak of the economic life of Europe, I am not thinking only of our allies. I am thinking also of our defeated enemies. We went into the war declaring that we m"de no war on women or children, that we made no war upon the Ger man or Austrian people, but upon their governments as they then stood.” Mr. Davis referred to the Demo cratic party as one “not calling for any adjectives to describe its mem bership.” He then enumerated leading Re publicans, saying: “If Senator Lodge is a Repub lican. what is Senator Brookhart? If President Coolidge is a Republic an, I do not know what Senator La Follette may be. They both say they are Republicans. Is it any wonder that a plain, ordinary Democrat has some difficulty in deciding just what a Republican is?” GOVERNOR BRYAN TAKES VOTE DRIVE INTO KANSAS OBERLIN, Kan., Oct. 4. —Gover- nor Charles W. Bryan, Democratic candidate for vice president, came south into Kansas today and opened his campaign in this state with a short talk before the Decatur Coun ty Democratic organization at a luncheon. Mr. Bryan stressed the importance of county organizations appointing committees to work together in an effort to impress upon the voters their duty to cast their ballots in the coming elections. “You are the producers and the candidates are -the consumers in this instance,” he declared. “To use a war term, you are the ‘mop up' squad.” Governor Bryan told of his life time work in the interest of the common people and declared the “city of Lincoln, Nebraska, had been for twenty the testing ground for carrying out the princi ples advocated by my brother and myself through the Commoner sot the common cause.” Before going to the Chautauqua grounds Jo make his set address. Governor Bryan re viewed a parade in his honor and inspected the live stock exhibits at the county fair. The Weather FORECAST FOR TUESDAY Virginia: Fair and cooler.

There, too. was a squad of trim bluejackets from the navy to rig the bunting when 1 e time for t v a unveiling came. The ceremonies were simple. The tale of how the funds of this great tribute came, mostly from the con tributed pay of members of the di vision itself, was told; a letter from General Pershing, its first com mander, was read to say that to the commanders who led the first di vision abroad “no higher tribute can be paid than to say that they were worthy of the men they led.” To the man long its commander in battle.

IKEIWICIITES THBOBE OF REDJAZ TO PROTECTMECCJ CAIRO, Oct. 4. —(Jewish Tele graphic Agency.)—King Hussein, of the Hedjaz, former grand shereef of Mecca, and recently self-proclaimed caliph of all the faithful Moslems, resigned at 9 o'clock Friday evening from both the Hedjaz kingdom and the Moslem caliphate throne. The king put his signature to the prepared abdication document after he had spent many hours in prayer and in wireless communication with his sons, Feisal, the king of Mesopo tamia, and Abdullah, the ruler of Transjordania. With tears in his eyes, Hussein declared to his friends that he was retiring only temporarily because of his desire to protect the holiest of holy Moslem cities, Mecca, from be ing a center of strife and the pos sible object -of destruction. He ex pressed his hope that the all-Islamic congress, which will convene soon in Cairo, will re-elect him. The new ly formed government has sent dele gates to Sifitan Ibn Saoud, leader of the Wahabi forces, to arrange for terms of peace before he enters Mecca. The intentions and the proposed course of action of the resigning king and caliph are not known, but it was stated he would proceed to Mesopotamia to seek shelter under the sceptre of his son, Feisal. Hus sein’s family treasure has been res cued and brought from Mecca to Jeddah. The Hashimite family, King Hus sein and his two sons, came into the limelight of Arabia in June, 1916, when Hussein, at that time grand shereef of Mecca, after pro longed negotiations with representa tives of Great Britain and the al lies threw off the mask of loyalty to the Ottoman empire and com menced hostilities against the Turk ish army with a small group of Bedouins, whom he induced to take the field against Turkey. Subse quently, Hussein proclaimed him self king of Hedjaz and on March 7, 1924, after the compulsory ab dication of the sultan of Turkey, he was proclaimed Caliph by a group of Moslems, representing Transjor dania. Palestine. Mesopotamia and Hedjaz. Hussein, a scion of an ancient Arabic family with century-old pre tensions to the caliphate, based on their direct descent from the proph et, encountered great difficulties in his aspirations toward th° cali phate. Although practically master of the Arabic countries, he could not obtain the sympathy of the whole Moslem world. His main opponent proved to be Sultan Ibn Saoud of Nejd, c«nttal Arabia, the leader of the fanati’ sect of the Wahabis. Ibn Saoud also a scion of an ancient family of Arabia and who claims di;ec’ descent from Mohammed, was an tagonistic to Hussein’s family in the observance of his family traditions. Atlanta, Ga., Tuesday, October 7, 1924 $1,000,000 Fire Razes 4 Cudahy Plant Buildings OMAHA, Oct. 4. —(By the Associat- 1 ed Press). —The second million dol lar fire at the Unon Stock Yards at South Omaha wthn a.perod of two years, destroyed four buildings, threatened two others and caused | the entire fire fighting forces ol i Omaha and South Omaha to put ( forth their best efforts to save other I plants of the stock yards this morn ing. ' The cause of the fire which start ed in the Cudahy plant’s lumber yard is unknown. Five box cars loaded with lumber, on a siderack near the yard, were destroyed, sparks from the original fire quick ly engulfing them in the spreading | Hames. Besides the lumber yard, I the box factory, hide factory, dutch I cleanser -plant and several smaller buildings were destroyed. Company officials at the scene of ( the conflagration declined an offi cial statement, but estimated the I loss would approach a million dol lars. I At a late h our this morning j further damage seemed improbable | in view of the wind shifting from I i the northwest in a northerly’ direc- L tin. The south wind, it was indicat ed, is fanning the flames in the di rection from which they had spread, practically eliminating further dan ger to other buildings.

Totals for the nine months’ period covered by the three quarters of this year, against the same period of 1923, sliow a gain of $113,064.46. The total for this year is $2,494,117.92 against $2,381,053.56 for last year. The total for the first three quar ters of 1924 was onls $771,787.82 short of the entire 1923 total of $3,265,905.74, which represented the greatest year’s business in the his tory of the Atlanta office. September figures totaled $272,- 728.92 in 1924, and $252,248.64 in 1923, a gain of $20,480.28. The total for the last quarter was $784,679.23 against $751,893.42 for 1923, a gain of $32,785.81. Postmaster Large, in commenting Saturday on the receipt figures, ex pressed confidence that 1924 would be a record year. “We are already far ahead of what we were last year,” the postmaster stated. “The last quarter always is a busy season, and we feel safe in predicting a banner year.” Postmaster Large also expressed gratification over the fact that the Atlanta postoffice apparently has justified its new classification. The office was placed in the $3,000,000 class by the postoffice department after last year’il record business. Indictment of Walker Former Sparta Banker, Is Sought at Macon MACON, Ga., Oct. s—The United ed States district attorney’s office last night confirmed a report that federal grand jury on Monday will be asked to investigate alleged fi nancial manipulations of John D.

Walker disappeared shortly after the alleged transaction and is said to be in San Antonio, Texas. a UEN'lb A COPY, SI A YEAR. 510,D80,000 BOOTLEG ig is uraffl; BRITISH SHIP SEIZED ■ —• v Bankers of Two Nations Ac cused-Acid Test for New Liquor Treaty NEW YORK, Oct. 5.—-With the capture of a rakish British steam er with 11,000 cases of whisky aboard, prohibition officials Saturday claimed to have caused the col lapse of an Anglo-American banker ( bootlegger alliance which, in the past six months, has flooded this part of the country with illicit 'iquox. As a result of a three months’ in vestigation coast guardsmen seized the 37G-ton steamer Frederick 8., and her crew of twenty men fifteen miles off Monmouth Beach, N. J., which the federal call the first real test of the liquor treaty with Great Britain. Bankers of Montreal and New York, and distillers and shipping men in London and Halifax are said to be members -of the international bootlegging ring which, the dry raiders said, has $10,000,000 behind its operation of a four-ship fleet. In addition to the prize capture of the Britisher, four smaller craft —fleet motor boats that bring the liquor from the rum fleet to the Long Island and Nliiy Jersey shores —were taken. The captures, which included u half hundred cases of whisky and fifteen prisoners, W’ere made by the marine police. I One lone police boat, with lights out, got three of the little craft off the Rockaways single-handed. The fourth was taken at Staten Island while her crew were unloading whisky on a dock. A novel ruse was employed by the federal agents to involve the crew of the Frederick 8., in a test of the new treaty which extends the an cient three-mile seizure limit to the distance of an hour’u sailing. Race Against Time After handing the vessel’s master I SIOO,OOO in cash and checks to make a fat liquor purchase agreement, binding, agents asked for twenty five “sample” cases to take ashore at once. They put the “stuff’ aboard the fastest speed boat they could get and raced ashore in forty two minutes. This, assert the agents, involves the bootleg ring In a violation of the Anglo-American treaty. Their race against time completed, the agents pressed the coast guard cutter Manhattan into work. That formidable armed little vessel steam ed alongside the whisky-laden Fred erick 8., placed under arrest tho crew and two women found..aboard, and proceeded witlT'{'he ship to an underguard anchorage off the Statue of Liberty. John H. Clark, assistant United States district attorney, later said the capture was the most important since the United States entered into the new seizure limit treaty with Great Britain. Although the captors were inclin ed to be reticent about the affair, a few facts were gleaned concerning the Frederick 8., and her operators. It was learned, for instance, that one of the women aboard —she is about 26 ami rather strikingly dress ed —was the daughter of one of the English “higher-ups” in the rum running conspiracy. Her compan ion, said to be a woman of about 40, was described as the younger one’s chaperon. Two of the crew, who said they were Harry Klein and L. Fletcher, both of Newark, N. J., were ar raigned before a United States com missioner and held in $5,000 bail. The eighteen others of the crew were held for appearance before a federal commissioner next Monday. R. G. Merr*>*k, divisional prohibi tion chief, wa. credited with having directed the setting of the trap. The actual investigation, in which six ac tively participated, was under the leadership of William A. Walker, ol Washington, general field superin tendent of federal agents, and Saul Grill, a local sleuth with a long record of successfully tricked boot leg cables to his credit. Huge Lots Landed Grill and Walker posed as Penn sylvania bootleggers, who scorned all deals involving less than 1,000 case lots. A series of champagne dinners ashore and wild parties aboard the vessel followed their introduction as “big time bootleggers” to members of the syndicate backing the Frede rick B, and her sister rum ships. In the past six months, Grill learn ed, the fleet had landed at least 100,- 000 cases of whisky on this coast. Grill and Waiker negotiated for the purchase of 25,000 cases of whis ky at $22 a case—a $550,000 transac tion. Two weeks ago the Frederick B put into port with the first con signment of this order, but the wily agents considered the seas too rough to permit of their speed test trip from ship to shore. 'So they per suaded the Frederick B’s crew to dispose of the “stuff” through other channels. The Frederick B returned from St. Pierre Miquelon, last Sunday, with 11,000 cases aboard. She an chored off Monmouth Beach, and there the deal was completed, the money passed and the 25 "sample” cases were taken from the deck load. It was planned to get the remaining 14,000 cases here within the next week aboard one or more of three remaining boats, which the dry raid ers claim constitute the syndicate’s fleet. A customs official tonight said the Frederick B formerly was the Ber nard M, a steam trawler. Her name be said, was changed last June 21, at Halifax. The vessel’s former p’ort of registry was Kingston, Jamaica. A port owner, the official said, was i (.hat les Slewart, said to be the super cargo. He was one of the men made prisoner. The captain’s name was given as Edward Wells. Several high powered rifles were taken from the ship after she had been anchored in the upper harbor.
