NEW YORK, November 6.—Marshal Henri Petain, ‘one of France's war- | lime strategists, still knows a trick or 0. The, white-haired general, who de- creed “They shall not pass,” when the Germans threatened Verdun, was home- ward bound today, chuckling over a | ruse whereby he saw New York and | Boston incognito after he had (official- 1y) left the United States. The marshal came over for the | Yorktown fete last month. He was dined by patriotic societies, showered | by New York ticker tape, presented | with honorary degrees, praised in in- numerable speeches, loaded with medals and hafled by parading thousands. But hardly a moment did he have to do, quietly and without the furore attendant on greatness. what he most wanted to da, that is to explore some of the sights of New York and Boston. So October 27 the marshal went to Newport, R. I, to be entertained with a parade and speech-making com- memorating the 151st anniversary of the landing of Rochambeau. _After that was over there came the next day & dispatch saying “Two French destroyers steamed out of Newport today headed homeward | with Marshal Henri Petain.” That evening Marshal Fetatn, smiing, | turned up at Boston. With the aid of proper American officials he had slipped off the destroyer “in a motor boat, landed quietly and gone off in-a big motor car to have some fun. ‘With him were Gen. Comte de Cham- brun and an aide, Capt. Michel I'Epine. Gen. Pershing, an old pal who made most of the arrangements for the ruse, showed him over some of the Massa~ chusetts city. Other old friends also acted as his guide. Then he came to New York, nnd with the Waldorf-As- toria keeping htsgreunce a close secret to avoid a new flood of invitations to functions, he slipped quietly in and out clad in civies. He went to Broadway shows, visited the Stock Exchange and mingled with tne public everywhere. No one suspacted he was one of the great heroes of tne war. So yesterday, after having & grand time, he really sailed back to France. ‘The first intimation that the marshal had not sailed on October 28 came a few days ago when an announcement was made here that he would not go to Philadelphia to attend a reception because he was tired. The announce- ment was mad= by mistake by some one who didn’t know the general was sup- posed to be incognito—was supposed, | indeed, to be in France. Up fo that time even French news- paper men here were unaware of his presence. There is a FRANKLIN Cane Sugar for every use rever You Go- You Find Blue Ribbon Malt est Seller ‘“! Mo,', L Pue mest C.
