L 4 A —_—— OFFER ARG TOMBFORWILSIN Ex-President’s Widow Not Likely to Approve Amphi- theater Memorial Site. Ly the Associated Press. The government has offered to place the body of Woodrow Wilson in Arlington Memorial Amphitheater, where the unknown soldier sleeps, but it appears unlikely that the pro- posal will be acceptable to Mrs, Wil- son. With the approval of President Coolidge, Secretary Weeks conveyed the offer to the widow yesterday through Dr. Grayson. It was sug- ®ested that the amphitheater -be used wither as a temporary or permanent resting place for the war President, as members of the family might elect. r. Weeks said that although there was 'no legal authority for the step he had taken, he was certain that if the offer is accepted Congress will vass the nmecessary legislation, When the amphitheater was erect- ed and placed under supervision of the War Department it was provided by law that distinguished men eould be entombed there, but that none should be given such an honor until ten years after his death. No body ever has been placed there except that of the unknown soldier. Mrs. Wilson's present intention is that her lrusband shall be laid to t temporarily in the erypt of the iscopal - Cathedral here until a permanent p of entombment has been selected.

ST. LOUIS, Mo., February 5.—Wood- row Wilson worked harder in E\rope to realize his peace ideals than “any man -1 have ever seen,” G. F. Close, confidential gecretary %o the former President in the war perl:.dfi eaid, as he boarded a train for Washington to attend Wilson's funeral. = “He worked harder in Europe than I have ever seen a man work,” Mr. Close said. *“He worked harder than any man could with impunity. His ardu- ous business began early In the morn- ing and usually lasted until midnight. He was at the conference table 10 o'clock in the morning after having previously spent an hour -or more at- tending to his correspondence and was frequently in conference far into the night.” E}Iole expressed the belief the former President’s strenuous activities in Eu- rope and his anxiety precipitated the “breaking point” in his health, ulti- mately resulting in his death. Swinging westward again the eye glimpses the bold heights along the south shore of the river rising above the near bank of the wide chasm in which the Potomac lles, while b yond Toll the colorful hiils of Mary- land, fold on fold.

As in the stately old cathedrals abroad, the crypt chapel covering. the vault for horored dead is set below the maln floor of the ballding. All services are now held in its deep recesses, dim in the half light of high windows that give only an upward glimpse through carved stone walls to the open air. There is an air of great peace and quiet about it, re- mote even from the busy sound of the bullding work above and all around. A low doorway opens into the cor- ridor that leads down into the chapel, its arched top below the level of the | eyes as one turns to the steps that lead down to it. And above that door, through which Woodrow Wilson will be carried tenderly tomorrow to sleep in the place of beauty and quliet, runs this legend, carved deep in the graying stonework. ¥The way of peace.” His surroundings will not be strange to the war President as he sleeps be- neath the chapel floor. He stood in this place many times in life, al- though of different faith, to pay honor to great occasions.

By the Associated Press. GENEVA, February 5.—A dramatic scene marked the public tribute paid yesterday at the session of the league of nations commission for the re- duction of armaments to the memory of Woodrow Wilson. Men of eminence representing the old and new worlds, who have gathered in Geneva to study how best to curb the great world danger of armaments, ad- dressed a large gathering, which stood reverentially, and declared that Wilson's name would stand forth in history, undimmed and imperishable, as that of the great apostle of péace and conciliation. The American minister of Switzer- | land, Joseph C. Grew, and Norman H. Davis, undersecretary of state in the Wilson administration, were pres- ent. This was the first time an Amer- ican minister had participated in the league's activities and the coming of Mr. Grew is interpreted here as a favorable indication of the attitude of the United States. The tenor of all the addresses was that Woodrow Wilson had won one of the great places in history. Signor Schanzer, former Itallan foreign minister,” said that the illustrious founder ‘of the league had translated the idea of the league into practice. Viscount Cecil of Chelwood, who has done more than anybody to carfy on Mr. Wilson's work for the league, and who himself will be replaced on the council by Lord Parmoor, dwelt on the former President’s undaunted courage. In his response to the American minister he said: Such tributes showed that Woodrow Wilson be- longed not to the United States alone, but to the world. M. Branting, president of the counsel of the league, sent to Mrs. Wilson a message expressing the deep-felt and respectful sympathy of himself and his colleagues. More than one-fourth of all the sugar produced in the world is con- sumed In the United States. EULOGY OVER RADI GIVEN BY TUMUL Bishop Freeman and Fred- eric William Wile Also Pay Tribute to Wilson.

All over the country reverent listeners heard from the Washington station of the Radio Corporation of America a memorial service that filled space with the memoriés of America’s war President. Joseph Tumulty, Woodrow Wilson's private socretary, spoke of his late chief, and from Bishop James E. Freeman, who will commit the earth- 1y remains of the great man to thelr last redting place, came eulogies of Woodrow Wilson's fdeals.

It softens the asperitles of politics and brings us now to a clearer under- standing of what Woodrow Wilson sought to do and the great goal of peace which he longed to reach,” said Mr. Tumulty. “It is too bad that this figure, like a mighty oak, has toppled over and fallen when his voice might have calied us back to thoxe knightly days when his influence was used to help a depressed nation and to bring peace to a stricken world. “Steadfast in vain persuasion he lived whije others, his bitter critics instant gain, the brief security and easy-tongued renown, mocked the vision that his brain built to a far unmeasured monument.

Bishop Freeman declared that a troubled world would come to realize the ideals and hopes of the late Pres- ident. He took up the work of the man and his efforts to bring a peace upon all nations, and declared that efforts may be made to get around his ideals, "but men will ultimately see his cause for peace. Frederic Willlam Wile also eulogized the late President and Flora McGill Keefer sang hymns. Tomorrow the world will listen to the nation's mourning of a great man as the fu- neral gervices at the National Cathe- dral come from the air.

Huston Thompson, chair- man of the Federal Trade Commis- sion, a former student of Princeton in Woodrow Wilson's classes and later a close personal friend of the late former President, spoke of his personal reminiscences of Wilson. “This is a day of joy and victory in that a great spirit has gone to his master knowing that he had fought the fight and kept the faith” sald Thompson. “There was a charm and a delight in the character of Woodrow Wilson which is borne out In the many kindly and friendly acts.

Mr. Thompson related how it de- volved upon Prof. Wilson to throw three foot ball players off the team for scholarship deficicncies on the eve of the preparation for the Harvard game and how his sense of duty was rewarded in chapel exercises when the students broke into prolonged cheers on his appearance in the audi- ence. “The students admired his stand,’ said Thompson. “He was willing with- out thought of the consequences to put_his popularity to the t. “Woodrow Wilson was a most inter- eating talker.
