THE OMAHA SUNDAY BEE: JUNE 4, 1916. 2—A B e e e ———— i A oot e e e e e e e e ) MILLION CHICAGO PARADE Marchers Pass Before Mayor and Guests in Reviewing Stand at Rate of 170 a Minute, WILL LAST FAR INTO THE NIGHT Chicago, June 3.—Passing at an av- erage rate of 16,000 an hour, Chi- cagoans, sixteen abreast, marched through flag bedecked streets in the greatest parade the city ever saw. Estimates were made that the total number of marchers would approxi- ~ mate 250,000. Par.ders to the number of 63,721 had passed the reviewing stand at 1 p. m. after four hoars of marching. It was an unusually dignified pa- rade. Nor was there ever before in Chicago sucli a display of patriotic emblems. During the first two hours of the arade an unharmonious banner of uge proportions was strung across the Lake View building. It read: “There are 100,000 marching in this parade. There are 5,000,000 farmers and 2,500,000 workers against pre- pp\’led?enl. Are you sure you are right.” Thousands ot marchers jeered the banner and it was finally called to the attention of the police, who re- moved it. Two men said to have been re- sponsible for its appearance were ar- rested. They were Captain Horace B. Wild, the balloonist and a mem- ber of the United States Aerial re- serve, and E. B. Tnhomas. Captain Wild said the banner was sent him from New York by the Woman's Peace party with the request that he hang it in a conspicuous place. The suff about fifty of them, held a private parade of their own led b, Alice Paul, chairman o the Congressional Union for Woman Suffrage. PeeTesases s s mneae PR B SRET TSR ST S Chicago, J-:ine & Th; great Chi- cago preparedness parade, in which 208,003 marchers pweu: enrolled, started at 9 o'clock this morning un- der perfect weather conditions. Bus- iness in the downtown district was nearly at a standstill, while practically the entire city devoted i(serf in some way to the demonstration. It was es- timated that a million persons packed Grant Park near the starting place of the parade and the side lines along its three and one-half-mile route. . Marching sixteen abreast, accord- ing to tabulations by a corps of clerks organized for the purpose, 2,032 pa- raders passed the reviewing stand in the first twelve minutes, It was said that at this rate it was evident that all of the 200,000 persons enrolled could not march, unless the demonstration were continued until 4 o'clock tomorrow morning. Mayor Reviews Parade. Mayor Thompson, prepared for a long siege, had arranged for lunch- eons to be brought to the reviewing stand for himself and other dMtin- guished citizens. Trains from the suburban and neighboring states poured their loads through the city's gateways to mingle with the holiday throng gathered from every nook and cranny of the city. Every bit of space where a spectator might view the marchers was taken and nearly everybody carried flags, or at least coat lapel emblems, Throughout the city homes, busi- ness offices and factories were vivid with patriotic colors. Two thousand five hundred police- men, practically the entire day force of the police department, kept the line of march clear. The parade was managed from a © central telephone office in direct con- L nectior. with 120 substations. Thus { General E. C. Young, I. N. G, grand 2 marshal, through Captain Sheldon, his £ aide, was able at all times to maneuver & the great divisions. . Many Nationalities Represented. v D R L T _,: ~ All branches of the city's life were 4 represented and all nationalities— . straight Yankee, English, French, ¢ German, Austrian, Russian, [talian, Greek—all of Europe and parts of § Asia. Many women were in line and & there were millionaires, too, heads of ¥ Chicago's greatest industries, who & were not content to arrange for the appearance of their employes, but in- sisted on enrolling themselves. - A squad of checkers working for a newspaper counted 21,300 marchers ing the reviewing stand in the st hour. The head of the parade covered the route in seventy-five min- utes, fifteen minutes faster than the time estimated.

NEUTRALITY LAYS (Continued from Page One.) |the two powers with which we have |had our principal controversies, .is | this: . “Germany, having developed the |submarine ‘as an offensive engine of | destruction, asserts that it cannot, on account of the resulting conditions, conform to the established rules of naval warfare, and we should not, therefore, insist on strict compliance. | Great_Britain has no sympathy with |the German point of view and de- mands the submarines observe the rules of visit and search without ex- ception. “On the other hand, Great Britain declares that on account of the new conditions resulting from submarine activity and the use of mines and from the geographical position of Germany, it cannot conform to the established rules of blockade an4 contraband, and we should not, therefore, hold it to strict compliance with these” rules. Germany insists, nevertheless, that Great Britain be made to follow the existing law. Must Hold to Old Laws. “The only alternative is for this government to hold firmly to those neutral rights which international law has clearly defined and to insist vigor- ously on their observance. In not the slightest degree can the settled rules be modified unless all the parties con- sent to the modifications. “This has been the position of the United States from the befiinning of the war. It has twice sought to obey mutual consent from the belligerents to certain changes in the rule, but in both cases it failed and the sugges- tions were withdrawn, “It is true that the rights violated hurting in the least by the belligerents may differ in im- portance and therefore require differ- ent treatment. Thus the violation of the natural right of life is a much more serious offense against an indi- vidual and against his nation than the violation of the legal right of prO{)- erty. There is not and cannot be adequate recompense for the wrongful destruction of life, but gropeny losses may be satisfied by the payment of indemnities. If one belligerent vio- lataes the right of life and another belligerent violates the right of prop- erty, can you doubt for a moment which one gives this government the greatest concern, or which one will call forth the more vigorous protest and the more earnest effort to pre- vent repetitions of the offenses? Congressmen Criticised, “If this government places life and proyenr on an equality it would be generally condemned, and justly con- demned, and yet I regret to say there are some Americans who do not real- ize this difference. Judging by the letters and telegrams received in Washington, the number who take this view is large. Indeed, it is held by some who sit in the halls of con- gress. These people openly complain that the government does not exert as much pressure to protect American property as it does to protect Ameri- can lives. ' “This attitude of mind of a portion of our people, as I said, increases the difficulties of diplomacy. It is almost imgouibh to present a strong and unbending front in a controversy un- less a united and determined nation is behind you. The knowledge that our people are not a unit in support- ing a vigorous policy encourages a foreign government to resist our pro- tests, feeling sure that we must with- draw or modify them. I firmly be- lieve that the American people will one of these days crush out this influ- ence, and become as they should, a great united nation, jealous of their representatives, and eager to defend their honor regardless of personal sacrifice. Americanism, with all that that term implies of patriotism, loy- alty and zeal, must be from this time forth the great standing policy of this | republic. Negotiations Must Be Quiet. “It is always my wish, and I know that it is the wish of the president, to tell the people frankly what the situa- tion is, but you must realize that it cannot be done in every case. They must try to be patient and to trust the government to do the very best it can | in upholding the n:tionl{ honor and dignity. “Those who are prone to blame the government because it does not de- mand and thre ought to consider very seriously what it would mean to the nation if their wishes were carried out. If they were responsible for the consequences would they give the counsel, which, as private citizens, they are so ready to give?” 'No Caps and Gowns For Bellevue Seniors The Vellevue college has refused the request of the senior class to ap- | pear at the commencement exercises |in caps and gowns.

A, Good of Cowles, Neb., former president of the National Retail Lumber Dealers’ association, delivered before the Na- tional Lumber Manufacturers’ asso- ciation an address in which he re- viewed the accepted advantages ac- cruing to producer, consumer and re- tailer by judicious, nation-wide :dver- tising, and emphasized the obligation that he held to be binding on the manufacturer to present the merits of | his Eroduct properly to the consumer. The speaker mentioned the reply, “By the label on the bottle,” given by Mark Twain to a question as to | how he could distinguish Rhine wine from vinegar. He called attention to the fact that modern sawmills were equipped with machinery effectively trade-marked, yet the lumber manu- facturers, insisting on having on the machinery he buys the label, “Blown in the bottle,” passes on to others a | product devoid of any identifying mark whatever., “Thus lumber re- ceives from the party responsible about the same inspiring send-off as the tribute given by John J. Ingalls to the Missouri mule, of which he said, ‘He is without pride of ancestry or hope of posterity,”” said Mr. Good. In conclusion Mr. Good stated that the lumber manufacturer should be for a brand on his output for all the reasons that have accrued to produc- ers in other lines; that the consum- er does appreciate a trade mark to the end that he may know what to buy or what to avoid. And the re- tailer of lumber should welcome its advent as a quality competition that in the last analysis brings more serv- ice to the consumer, more character to his stock in trade and more pride that his business would be both mod- / ernized and progressive.
