- g FOCH GREETED HERE BY EAGER THRONG Hundreds Take Part . Demonstration as He I Reaches Union Station. in ARRIVES AHEAD OF TIME ‘Receives Medal From George Washington Post, No. 1, American Legion. In the midst of an impressing and inspiring demonstration, Ferdinand Foch, marshal of France, who was in ‘supreme command of the victorious al- lied armies, arrived in Washington last night at o'clock on a special train from New York. Gen. Pershing, who had arrived ‘Washington only a short time befor members of his staff, nearl score of generals and officers of “the United States Army. officials of the State De- partment. the District Commissioners ~and officers of the American Legion. vere on_the platform to welcome the famous French soldier and his staff as jthey stepped from the train. ! Within the great concourse of the sta- fon and everywhere else in the big istructure were crowds of eager per- S'sons who had gone to the station to 'participate in the Nationad Capitals igreeting to the generulissimo of the i@llied armies. There was no mistaking Vthe pleasure experienced by the mar- {shal at the earnest and warm manner {{An_which he was welcomed. He so ex- 'pressed himself to Gen. Pershing, who iclasped his hand as he alighted from in {{him down the lane through the large crowd to the President's waiting room flin the station. Smiles, Bows and Salutes. He smiled and bowed and saluted, Imost continuously, during his walk ito the President's room, in acknowl- edgement of the greetings. The train which brought the mar- hal and his party to Washington was nearly an hour ahead of the time originally set. The possibility of this earlier arrival was not made known to those arranging for the _local reception until a few hours b fore the appointed hour, and because ‘of this it was impossible to notify all . of the legion members in the Dis- % trict and others who were anxious to be on hand of the change. Gen. Pershing and his party, who % landed in New York a few hours ahead of the French hero, and who greeted the latter when he landed in New York, arrived in Washington about three-quarters of an hour ahead lof the latter. The party waited in the President’s room until the time warrived for them to take their posi- tions on the train platform. Gen. g Pershing after an exchange of greet- ings with the French commander, in- troduced the various American gen- erals and other officers and repre- ¥ sentatives of the federal and District governments and officials of the £ American Legion. § Greets Officers Comrades. The sturdy, little, gray-haired mar- shal was enthusiastic in his greetings during these formalities. - His face was wreathed in smiles, and his bril- liant eyes showed that he was deeply ‘affected. Some of the.officers he re- membered. He had met them during the war and the period immediately following the armistice. However, in § almost every instance, the marshal greeted these American officers as ‘comrade,” and to each he acknowl- edged the introduction, with a few ; words spoken in French. { " Probably the most impressive fea- % ture of the reception to this dis- tinguished Frenchman was. in .the President's waiting foom, when he { was inducted into the American . Legion as an active member of 3 George Washington Post, No. 1, of f this city. Lieut. Howard S. Fish, ! commander of George Washington ! Post, attended by Maj. James Buch- 2nan, and Lieut. Philip C. Kauffmann < former officers of the Army and Navy, 4 pinned upon the marshal’s coat the ceremonial badge of the legion and i presented to him the certificate of % membership in George Washington Post. These ceremonies were brief, but deeply affecting and impressive. 3 Pershing Close at Hand. Ambassador Jusserand of France, : who accompanied the marshal from - New York, and Gen. Pershing stood i close at hand as these honors were i bestowed. They were the first to con- + - gratulate him at their conclusion. 3 When Gen. Pershing told the marshal 5 | ! that he too was a member of the! ? post, the latter took his hand in a ? long grasp and smiled. . __Pinning the badge on the breast of ; Marshal Foch, Commander Fisk sai § “On October 8, the George W ? ington Post, No. 1, American Legion, i elected you a life member of that ¥ post, and it is now my pleasure and i privilege to present this ceremonial % badge to you, as well as this cer- tificate of life membership.” 7 In reply, Marshal Foch, speaking £ in his native tongue, said, “It is a ¥ great honor which you of the Amer- ican Legion, soldier-brothers of the : French poilu, have bestowed upon me, and I will always hold sacred the proud traditions of the legion, and forever feel honored at having been elected a member of the George ‘Washington Post.” Stand With Bared Heads. Immediately following this scene the marshai and his party walked to the curb in front of the station and s they entered the automobiles to ake them to the Willard Hotel, which is to be the marshal's home while here, the mounted band from Fort Myer struck up “The Marseillaise, which was quickly followed by “The Star Spangled Banne During this very one stood at rigid attention and the vast assemblage stood with bared heads. A squadron of cavalry from Fort Myer escorted the party to the hotel and there was much cheering and waving of hats and handkerchiefs from the crowds along the route as tinguished party went along H i as a huge crowd awaiting % their arrival at the hotel, The streets fand walkway at the entrance were lined with cheering citizens, and S within the hotel the corridors were % jammed. The marshal acknowledged thesé manifestations. It was with ! much difficulty, however, that sufi- cient space was made for him and - his associates to squeeze through the crowd to enter the hotel and to reach - the elevator which bore him to the 2 second floor, where they retired to i the suite of rooms occupied by Presi- ident and Mrs. Harding on inaugu- 3 ration ev: i Touched by Reception. 3 Marshal Foch received a small party of newspaper men in his private car on the way from New York to Wash- ington and said: “1 am very proud and deeply touch- ed by the rec¥Plion given me in New York today. This reception has not surprised me, knowing the American people as 1 do through having seen their fighters at work. 1 am very happy that the sentiments animate all the people of America. = ““The manifestations are more striking. more spontaneous, because they are nothing official, they are the frec language of the people, who say, ‘What we have wanted you to do you have done.” " He concluded with a word of thanks for the American Legion, whose guest he will be until the opening of the disarmament conference. e plans to return from Kansas City on No- Vember 11. In the party which came to Wash- ington with Marshal Foch were the following: Capt. L'Hospital, aide to Marshal Foch; Gen. D. Connor, honorary aide; Lieut De Soubeyran, secretary to ¢ mn& ‘Foch; C.

Fries Says No Craft Will Withstand High Explosives Which Planes Are to Carry. BALTIMORE, Md., October 29.—No battleship afloat, nor any which can ibe built in the next ten years, can iremain afloat under an attack of air- planes equipped with gas and high explosive bombs which are being or can be manufactured at Edgewood arsenal, according to Brig. Gen. Amos E. Fries, chief of the chemical war- fare service. , The problem of hitting the ship alone remains, and that is not so diffi- cult as it may appear, Gen. Fries told the Engineers’ Club last night. He added: “Airplane bombs can be made within the next year at Edge wood arsenal to-sink any ship which can be built in the next ten years. Airplanes can be made to carry 20,000- gound bombs. No ship, whether it has two or half a dozen bottoms, can be built to withstand such charges of high explosives.” —_— TROPHY CUP EXHIBITED. Award to District School in Health Crusade. Pupils in the public schools of the first division yesterday got their first glimpse of the trophy awarded to the District public school system for pre- eminence in the modern health crusade conducted by the American Association for the Prevention of Tuberculosis. The cup was shown to the children by Ben W. Murch, supervising principal of the first division.

Tanaka -and Vice Ad- miral Kato Pledge Co-Op- eration in Objectives. Maj. Gen. Tanaka, chief of staff of Japan's military delegation to the arms conference, and Vice Admiral Kato, head of .the naval delegation, took occasion at a dinner at Rausch- er's last night, at which they were the guests of honor, to express their earn- est co-operation in the attainment of the objects of the forthcoming inter- national parley. Both these disin- {guished men likewise pledzed them- selves to ) portant questions coming before the Conference with the utmost sincerity and frankness. Sadao Saburl, counselor of the Jap- anese embassy, was the host and pre- Sided most felicitously over the din- {mer. Other guests were American, | British and Japanese newspaper writ- ers and Philip H. Patchin and Henry Suvdam of the Department of State. In the course of his remarks, Mr. burl emphasized his realization of the influence upon the results of the coming conference of the writers for the press of the nations represented, and sald that they could mar or Imake a successful outcome. Speak on Expected Outcome. Richard V. Oulahan, president of the Overseas Writers, gnd Mark Sullie van of that organization, spoke in happy terms upon the expected out- come of. the conference. Mr. Oulahan said that whatever pessimism may exist in some quarters, none is en- tertained by President Harding, Sec- retary Hughes and other great pub- lic men who are confident that great benefit to the world must result. Mr. Sullivan decried the possibility of war over the clashing cultures of the orient and the west, taking the ground {that nothing more than competition should be expected. Gen. Tanaka, who is not a stranger to Washington, having previously re- sided here as military attache of the Japanese embassy, delivered an ad- dress which bore the earmarks of careful preparation, as its seriousness warranted. Gen. Tanaka's Address. «It is only natural” said Gen. Ta- naka, “that all the civilized nations of the world should be greatly in- terested in the work of the confer- ence. Especially this seems to be the case with America and Japan, which, as neighbors across the Pacific, pos- sess the most vital interests on the ,results of the conference. In my jopinion, the success of the confer- ence, which means the achievement of the greatest work humanity has ever been called upon to undertake, will depend on the free and frank |interchange of views based on prin- ciples of impartiality and liberality. “A perfect understanding of one an other is most important among in- dividuals, and this will be especially necessary in respect of international relations, as the majority of the peo- rotect Your Home— —the winter season plays havoc with house and proper- ty.

PERSHING ple in all countries know little about the real state of affairs in the other country. It is here that the efforts of publicists are called into requisition, so that the people in these countries may be given accurate information about the state of things in other countries and a correct public opinion formed. Misunderstandings Possible. “Reviewing the relationship be- tween America and Japan, i stated that despite the existence of traditional friendship and confidence among many people of both countries. unfortunately it cannot be denied that misunderstandings are llable to be occasioned among certain sections of both peoples, mainly owing to exag- gerated or fabricated reports pub- ed. “One of the benefits to be derived by the forthcoming conference will be 4 wider diffusion among the peo- ples of both countries of correct knowledge on real conditions in America_and_Japan. It is for this Teason that the conference is greatly welcomed by those who have the friendship of the two countries really at heart, and we are bound to work whole-heartedly for the realization of the end in view. “I am very much pleased to avail myself of tonight's meeting to be in- formed about the general trend of the consensus of public opinion in Amer- |ica regarding current affajrs, and I shall feel happy if my statesmen should in any way contribute toward replenishing _ your well-stocked knowledge about Japan. Japan Frequently a Target. “There is no blinking at the fact that Japan has frequently been made a target of attack at the hands of certain forelgners claiming that it is a_militaristic country and that the country is under the thumb of the militarists. Unfortunately for Japan, this and other similarly misleading information has obtained currently in foreign countries, and is believed by a large number of people simply be- cause they have had no opportunity to be correctly informed. “It is true that there is a certain group of people in Japan who make it their business to attack the alleged rampancy of the militarists and their supposed interference in the conduct of diplomacy, but this is far from the fact. In any event, the argu- ments used by those publicists are superficial and misleading, and they seem to have no idea as to what false and unfavorable light their diatribes are depicting Japan in the eves of | foreigners. I- have no hesitation in { asserting that the valie of the in- formation or _deduction _derived through these channels.is extremely doubtful. Charge Not True. “We must ask observers of Japa- nese affairs to take careful note of the fact that Japan is a constitution- al country which is under the admin- istration of a party cabinet.

While diplomatic precedent would permit him to bring wine and liquor into the country for his per=onal use, Dr. Paul Andre, his personal physician, declared last mjght that the marshal intended to follow the American custom of_taking only wa- ter with his meals. No wine or other L e e tion reserves the independence of the command of the army, but, as the national policy is solely under the control of the cabinet, which is re- sponsible to the throne, the actions of the army command are strictly confined to purely military matters and in so far as are consistent with the general policy followed by the government.” Vice Admiral Katb reiterated the friendly sentiments he previously ex- pressed in public Interviews toward the American people, and reaffirmed his_intense interest in the coming confarence and his belief that it must ults.

What table wines he does use are of the ordinary variety, and he does not take any other kind of alcoholic beverages, Dr. Andre, who is a_professor of medicine in the University of Nancy, France, has been with Marshal Foch since the war. From the day that conflict_broke out in 1914 until the armistice, the marshal, he said, has not had one sick day, not even being bothered by a_cold. 4 Dr. Andre admitted that he slightly feared American hospitality, espe- cially the institution known as the banquet, but added that he felt al- most_certain Marshal Foch would not suffer thereby. He said that the distingulshed French soldier was *a good and obedient patient.” Except on special occasions, the doctor said, Marshal Foch arises each day about 7 o'clock, works hard during the day and generally retires at 10 or 10:30 p.m. A pipe is his best companion when the day's work < done Painting he mar- For best results in this class ot FOCH CAPTURES without striking & blow. For a long, long time the city had been waiting to pay off just a little of its debt of gratitude to the small man in horizon blue whose skill and daring at martial chess had reduced the proud armies of Germany, and it seized its opportunity. Not since Dewey returned from Manil not since Armistice day, did the city’'s millions turn out with such spon- taneity and in such numbers. Had the hardy. little Frenchman, who led ten million soldiers to victory, ridden up in a war chariot, dragging captives behind him like the em- perors of Rome, he could not have received a greater welcome than was accorded him as he rode up the his- toric thoroughfare in a twentieth ce: tury motor car, enveloped in a delug- ing shower of paper hurled from sky- scrapers’ windows. Moves in Triumph. From the Battery. where he was greeted by Gov. Miller, to city hall. where he was welcomed by Mayor Hylan, he moved in a greater trium- phal procession after steaming up the harbor to the boom of guns, the censeless blast of whistles, the roar of airplane motors, the shouts and cheers of countless thousands. By His side rode Gen. Pershing, who in the dark days of the war led across the Atlantic' America’s fighting men who took their places under the banner of victory. It was Gen. Pershing who was first to welcome his old comrade to these shores. Upon the marshal the city conferred its freedom. and then he continued his triumphal march uptown. This time it was along 5th avenue he motored, and 5th avenue proved as wild with enthusiasm as Lower Ma hattan, the financial heart of t world, which had tossed its da; business worrles out the window with its paper shower: Display at Statio At the Pennsylvania station there was another display of enthusiastic welcome. Cheers were still resound- ing when the special train taking the marshal to Washington on the first leg or his journey to Kansas City for the American Legion convention pulled out of the terminal. The marshal’s welcome began & hundred miles out at sea. There the liner Paris, bearing him to the new world, was joined by twelve Ameri- can destroyers. For a time the war- craft had it all to themselves, but soon through the mist broke a squad- ron of seaplanes. The murshal raised his_head at the familiar sound of sputtering motors overhead. On moved the Paris, passed by the George Washington, which had raced into port with Gen. Pershing, in or- der that he might be first to grasp the marshal's hand on American 5o Clasps Hands With Jusserand. At quarantine came another w come. Transferred to the Navy cutter Vigilant, the soldier of France clasp- ed hands with Ambassador Jusserand, with Assistant Secretary of the Navs Roosevelt and with many other notables. But the series of receptions had hardly begun. The next came off Fort Jay, when guns thundered a general's salute. And then the climax. Landing a few yards from Castle Garden, where his famous country man Lafayette had set foot on Ameri- can soll, the marshal found awaiting him a reception that even his imagi- nation could not have conceived. The wide stretch of open ground had been converted into a great stadi- um, the walls of Wwhich were sky- scrapers stretching stories high. At every window, on the roofs, even out on dizzy cornices twenty-five stories above the street were perched men and women waving flags of America and France. On the streets below were massed a great army of wel- comers—men, women and children. Indeed, it seemed. as if all the littie girls in New York were there with bouquets which they wish- ed to press into the marshal's hands. As =oon as the soldierly little figure in the light blue uniform of France stepped off the pier a mighty shout arose. A few minutes before Gen. Pershing had appeared to the sound of ruffles and flourishes, and these jwere repeated for the Fremch w ero. Advances to Meet Pershing. Forward stepped the marshal. his scarlet cap at a rakish angle.
