on May 10.

Piobably .100,000 persons formed the
surging, shouting mass which lined
ltroad street as far as eye could see
when tlie veil was diopped from the
Statue of Victory last night. More than
100 calcium lights and semes of search
lights played on the statue and tlie lint
of lolor of the native costumes worn by
the marchers in the demonstration.
Rands played, chimes tolled, whistles
blew, and thousands of voices shouted
forth their sentiments as the drive was
inaugurated officially.
