Major John A. Hagberg was marshal of the parade which consisted .of the Spanish War Veterans in full uniform, the Sub Marine Band, one company of TI. S. Marines, the Italian band, and the two companies of local Home Guards and the city Liberty loan committee. Bringing up the rear of the parade was a motor truck on which was mounted a large torpedo with pro- pellars turning and two anti-aircraft guns such as are in use on the sub- marines. On the truck with the tor- pedo were several sailors from the base. The streets were lined with people to see the parade and after it was over a large number went to the town hall, filling it to capacity. Champions of Liberty. The Italian band played America, after which Rev. Joseph H. Selden, chairman of the meeting made a brief address, in which he said that Ameri- ca is a peace loving nation but we have taken up arms in the cause of freedom and justice. We are not mov- ed by fear of assault, but as Secretary Lane has said, “We must fight them over there or we will have to fight them over here. We are in this war for no selfish reason but as the cham- plons of Liberty and freedom for all the world. How many mothers and fathers have given,sons to this cause? We are not here to win enlistments, but we are here that there may be a practical expression of patriotism and devotion—the Liberty Bond. Rev. McLean Goldie Speaks. The chairman then introduced Rev. M. McLean Goldie, who has recently returned from Russia where he has been engaked in Y. M. C. A. war work. Rev. Mr. Goldie spoke in part as follows: Our gathering here tonight is per- haps one of the most momentous in the history of the city of Norwich. Momentous in the sense that it is in- cumbent upon every man and woman, to determine—if they have not done so—whether they stand for justice, truth, righteousness and freedom. In a word, whether they will fulfill their obligations not only to their country, but to their God. The other day, one of the clerical brethren said to me, “You never seem to laugh since your return from Rus- sia,” little wonder ladies and gen- tlemen; for, I have seen that great nation which which for years has been struggling for the inestimable blessings which we enjoy, lying pros- trate and bleeding, the preclous jewel of freedom, rudely torn from her grasp. and the iron heand of a cruel, merciless and barborous conqueror placed on her neck, crushing out her very life’s blood. Weighted down with the dazzaling image of utopian ideas she. forggt the open sesame of “victory,’ and as she was drowning in the vortex of servitude she dragged down_with her that gallant little-coun- try, Roumania, which has fought as valiantly and faithfully on the side of the allies—because she had no alterna- tive but to succumb. Infamous Atrocities. T need hardly describe tonight the unspeakable horrors that have char- acterized the Germans wherever they have held sway; and which have plac- ed them in a category so infamous, that there is no word in our language that can fully depict their crimes. It i8 not necessary for me to remind you, after the war has been raging for nearly four years, that women have been tortured and violated, ever cruci- fled, the servants of God and unoffen- sive civilians shot in cold blood, hus- bands torn from their wives and fami- lies arnd banished into slavery, while innocent children and babies have been mained and tortured in a way that makes the strongest men tremble, and women almost weep tears: of blood. Our allies, England, France and %el- gium have been during the last fort- night, and still are, facing the most terrible ordeal in the history of the world. Hundreds of thousands of precious lives have been, and at this very moment are being, hurried into eternity. Genetal Pershing with that wonderful foresight. quickness of intuition and fertility of resource, which won for him the highest com- mand in the American army, in the hour of dire necessity, placed unre- servedly at the digposal of those brave Deoples, all the troops under his com- mand, which has earned for him not the admiration and gratitude of all his feliow countrymen, but also the highest respect of all the truly civil- ized world; and which will ever re- main on record as one of the unselfish and humanitarian principles for which the United States entered this war. We Shall Win. + The hour is indeed a critical one— we have passed through many anxious and strenuous times, but tonight we are face to face with the most appal- ing phase of the war. All other bat- tles that have happened in the world's history rolled into one pale into in- significance when compared with the one that is now raging on the fair fields of Flanders. The outlook is a dark cne, no one, not even the most experienced critic can fortell with any certainty what the immediate future will reveal. But I am firmly con- vinced that although this struggle will entail the loss of millions of precious lives, rcasting the shadow of death across nearly every home in this coun- try, although we in connection with our allies may be brought to the very brink of starvation! nevertheless if we are true to God and ourstlves we shall win this war! The heroic French troops under General Joffre, assisted by that small but gallant little British army of 70,- 000 who in the early duys of Septem- ber, 1914, won the battle of the Ma‘ne defeating the most efficient war ma- chine the world has even known. What was accomplished in those days at the beginning of hostilities, when the al- were unprepared—will not only gain be repeated, but the Germanic hordes and the cruel masters which impel them—ith the aid ®f our brave ‘boys, who are second to none in the fighting qualities, mustered in, and re- cruited from the cradle of freedom, will hurl them back across the “fRhine and reduce them to impotency '*The allies have been, and still are, fighting our battles. No man or wo- “iman 1n this country has any doubt the dengers which threaten us our brave boys have gone across the sea, freely ungrudgingly the purest, ‘the bravest and the best, second to none in the world, that we at home may live. They look to you at home to provide the very best fighting equipment that human mind can conceive of, in order that there lives may be conserved to the uttermost. There is no doubt the spirit- of the boys it cannot be beaten. On the western front a short time since a party of Canadians got beyond their objective and a large number of the party were killed, some were dying and one of the few that re- mained signalled back for help. No notice was taken of this appeal at first and just as they were about to give up all hope they saw the flags waved by a signaller saying “we are coming to your aid.” The feelings that passed through those men’s minds ‘would be impossible to describe. They were eventually rescued,and one poor fellow as he died said, “boys, thank God they got the message and are coming.” Every One Enlisted. I came here tonight to bring a message from the boys, your boys in the trenches. Every man and woman is enlisted in this war. The bleeding allics and our own brave lads have sent a signal for help, will vou direct the appeal and leave them to di, will you send a message saying that you cannot bplp and sound their death knell. T tell you ladies and gentle- men your whole-hearted reply to our appesl tonight by buying © Liberty bonds will do more to break the morale of the Germans than anything else on earth and nothing will more effective- ly brace up our brave lads and the allies to the point of grim determina- tion. No! Mr. Chairman, a thousand times no! Norwich will not be found wanting in this fathful hour, the world will be wafted across the sea, “We are with you to the last cent and if needs be to the last drop of our life’s blood.” Reply to Our Enemies. Our president said in reply to the challenge of our enemies, “Force, Force, with ships to the utmost,” in order that those words may be car- ried into effect there m:«t be indelibly graven. on each breast here tonight, “Sacrifice, sacrifice, and still more sacrifice.” This is Eastertide, we have passed the passion and crucifixion and the ev- idence to me of our Lord's death and resurrection is not only the eye wit- nesses but the fact that his followers who had lost all hope when he died some time after were inspired with such a power that they were able to face martyrdom and death; and that power has increased all down the ages until now. Today we witness the agonies of a dying world, we are pass- ing through our passiontide and will have our Calvary. But there is that zlorious Easter morning dawning on the horizon when the bells will ring the joyous strain of Victory and the world will go to a higher, a purer, a nobler life that is hid with Christ in God. No Compromise Says Hartford Speak- er. Herbert Knox Smith of Hartford, was the next speaker and said: Wars heretofore have been wars of bound- aries. Provinces and frontiers have been targained for and territory has changed hands. This is no war of boundaries, those engaged in the strug- gle that is going on today are hound that one side of the other shall die. One side folows the policy of might is right—the policy of the brute. The other follows the practice of truth and Justice. There can be no compro- mise, the beast must be killed. Mr. . Smith showed a war map of Europe as it is today, with Germany in possession of the heart of the contin- ent. The speaker went on to say that there could be no peace the way the map stood now for if there were peace and Germany retained her pos- sessions she would reorzanize her war machine and start out to conquer:the world again. Make no peace with that map, said Mr. Smith, for if we do we will sooner or later be under the rule of the beast. Mr. Smith also showed a time fuse for a 75 centimeter sheil which is the amous 75's that the French people worship. The speaker explained the workings of the fuse and the large number of operations which, are need- ed to make it and the expense. We must have money to carry on the war and by buving a_ Liberty bond is one way to help. Not only that but a Liberty bond is the receipt for our homes, the security of our children and those things that we hold dear. Lieutenant Tells Trench Experiences. Lieutenant J. W. Nosworthy of the British recruiting missi -addressed the meeting and told of some of his experiences in the trenches “over there.” He said that we are not fight- ing the German government, but we are fighting the German people for the people of Germany are lo; government. The war may not be over for many years but we will lick Ger- many. 2 Lieutenant Nosworthy said that the soldier in the trenches counts only twenty-five per cent. toward winning the war and that the other seventy- five per cent. is done by those at home. Tt is up te the people of the United States to back up the soldier at the front by buvinz Liberty honds to help him to fizht. The speaker also told the people of Norwich that if they knew of any Englishman who was hiding behind the American flag to keep out of the war that he should be reported to the British recruiting mission. He said that it was up to every Englishman to either fight for the United States or for England, it does not matter which, but he must fight. After Lieutenant Nosworthy’s talk James L. Case took the nlatform and asked for subscriptions for the loan. The women's committee of the Third Liberty loan of which Mrs. E. s i is chairman took the subscrip- nd to these ladies goes the credit, for the $33,350 raised at the meeting. “Tie commfttee in charge of the ral- lv, Lee Roy Robbins, chairman, is highly pleased with the results of the rally and is grateful to thosé who madé) it the success that it was, especially Commander Rogers of the Submarine Base for sending the marines, band, and torpedo.
