' Secretary of the Navy Daniels, speak

Mr. Daniels described the develop

in seafaring men because of the war,
and 'declared it "America's duty to
'serve' mankind as well as itself by swap

Foe Sends Two Notes
WILL DELAY THE PRESIDENT
By the Associated Tress
rrls, May SO. June in Is the
earliett possible date on which the Ger
man treaty can be signed, if no' ob
structions are encountered, but June 20
is the more probable date for its sig
nature and the departure of President
Wilson for the United States, according
to, a member pf Jke American peace
ilciegntiqn, jnbo discussed . tficsituation
wiUj'tbe correspondent yesterday.
'iCr'irn"npw tintpa wprn ilAlfvnr1 ti I1a
secretariat of the Peace Conference by
the German delegates 'today. At the same
time the Gcrmnns handed over French
and English translations of the first
section of the counter-proposals, which
were delivered yesterday in German
only.
The first of the two new notes con
cerned German property in allied coun
tries. The second has to do with the
Turkish public debt.
League Proposal Interesting
"yh counter-proposals have been re
ceived with the greatest interest by the
members of the Peace Conference, espe
cially the claims for immediate mem
bership in the league of nations, for a
plebiscite to decide, the disposition of
Silesia and for the filing of a definite
sum for reparations.
The Allies probably will take a week
to consider the reply.
With the exception of Frnnre all
the major powers would undoubtedly
agree to the imrAedlatc admission of
Germany'to tho'Ieaguo of nations, but
France is unnlterably opposed, and in
consequence there is no possibility of
this being done.
The Paris newspapers generally
agree that the allied and associated
powers have answered in advance the
pretensions ' put ,' forth in the German
counter-proposals and that they will
not consider the proposals. The news
papers say that the counter-proposals
are an attempt to' escape the moral nnd
material consequences of thej war and
give the impression 'that Germany is
trying to open oral negotiations.
The Socialist IIIumanite declares
that Germany cannot reject responsi
bility for the nets of the imperial re
gime. It says that the Germans dis
missed the former government in order
to gain absolution. It adds that Ger
many in 1S71 did not stop the advance
of its army because the French had
revolted against the imperial govern
ment. May Change Financial Terms
Strangely enough, the sum of ?23,
000.000.000. fixed by the. Germans for
reparations, corresponds exactly with
the amount winch several American anu
British conference financial advisers had
agreed that the Germans could reason
ably be expected to pay and it is not
impossible tunc Bone changes win oc
granted in the finunclnl terras of the
treaty.
The translation" fit the German coun
ter-proposals' is going on so slowly that
It Beems improbable thot the council of
four will be able to have tne complete
English and French texts for considera
tion until Saturday.
Wlien Count von Brockdorff-Bantzau,
head of the German peace mission,
learned that the text of the counter
proposals submitted yesterday by the
Germans had been cabled to American
newspapers, he immediately telegraphed
a. protest to Berlin, declaring it, to be
a most discourteous act toward the En
tente chancelleries, He rccylyed a reply
last night explaining mat mere miu neen
a misunderstanding. ,
"The theme of President WJIson Is a
very ticklish one," was a statement
made by Count von Brockdorff-Bant-xau,

"They Died Not in Vain";
What thq 315th Gave
The casualty list of "Philadel
phia's Own" bears mute testimony
to the fierceness ot the engagements
in which the 315th took part.
The list Rhows that fourteen offi
cers and 305 men were killed in ac
tion nnd that thirty-six officers nnd
1044 men were wounded, approxi-
kmalely 45 per cent of the original
strength of the unit being repre
sented upon the roll.
The troopship Santa Bos:i, bringing
2033 officers nndmen of the 315th In
fantry, more than 1700 of whom were
selected from this city and trained at
Camp Meade, docked at Snyder avenue
wharf Bhortly after 11 o'clock this
morning. -WaifP'--'--""""
Thousands of friends ,and relatives
llad gathered at the pier to greet the
veterans. But the cheers of welcome
that arose from the throats of the huppy
ones outside the pier were matched by
the loud cries of sheer happiness from
the exultant soldiers leaving the trans
port. The men first sighted land at Becdy
Island shortly after 0 o'clock this
morning, the outlines of the bay and
tiver having been obscured by fog be
fore then.
The shout of the discoverer was an
swered by the other veterans who had
kept an all-night vigil, but the real en
thusiasm of the 'men burst out when
just this side of Chester one of the
soldiers opened up with "Hey! there's
Billy Penn!"
Men Who Whip Germans Weep
Tears streamed down the cheeks of
some of the men who had unflinchingly
taken all the Germans could hand out
at Haucourt, Malancourt, Montfaucon
and other enemy strongholds. .
For that shout meant that what
Montfaucon and all the other battle
fields meant to them were things of the
past and that they were going to take
up their lives where they ha'd left off
when called to defegd their country's
honor.
The casualty list of the 315th is grim
evidence of the regiment's valiant work.
And the citations and medal awards
shows th'at the heroism that distinguish
ed the unit was but the reflection of
the individuals of which it was com
posed. Twenty -seven officers and men were
awarded the Distinguished Service Cross
and fifteen officers and men were award
ed the Croix de Guerre, some of the men
receiving both medals.

Homage to Veterans of All
American Wars
GOVERNOR MAKES ADDRESS
The blue of '01 nnd the nlic drab
of 1018 blended in harmonious sjmpnthy
as grizzled and youthful veterans of the
United States lighting forces paid
tribute to their fallen brothers on this
Memorial Day.
Although the line of blue is becoming
thinner each jcar, the veterans marched
with firm step to the vnrious cemeteries
whero their comrades lie.
As another victory has been inscribed
on the banner of the United State nimy
since last Memorial Day, today's- ob
servances have greater significance than
ever. Many events arc taking place
which will make it one that will live
long in memory.
The spirit of progress was much In
evidence at the Hog Island shipyard.
where five ships were launched this
afternoon with impressive nnd pic
turesque ceremony,
Day Is Legal, Holiday.
Ab a mark of respect to those who
hnvc fallen in the struggles lo maintain

plants closed for the day.
President Wilson, Governor Sproul

tions urging nil to observe the spirit of
the day, and pointing out that no one
is entitled to greater honor than those
who suffered and died for the cause of
democracy.
Memorial services were held in
squares nnd parks in all sections of the
city.
Following the custom of many years,
the Naval Veterans Association nnd
the United Spanish War Veterans
honored the memory of comrades who
died in the naval battles of the Civil
War and Spanish -.American War by

MEMORIAL DAY ADDRESS
AT U. S. GRAVES IN FRANCE
President Declares Day of Se
cret Councils Deciding Na
tions' Destinies Is Past
FRENCH HONOR AMERICANS
People Are Now in Saddle, As
serts Washington Execu
tive at Suresnes
By Associated Press
Paris. May 30 The day of secret
councils is past, because the people are
in the saddle, President Wilson de
clared in his Memorial Day address in
the American cemetery nt Suresnes. The
private councils of statesmen, he added,
will no longer determine the destinies of
nations.
An earnest defense of the ienguc of
nations was n prominent tiotc of the
President's address. He said he looked
for the time when a man who failed
to support 'the league would be as
ashamed as the man who opposed the
union of tlic states after the Civil War.
Tct of Address
The President said :
Mr. ambassador, ladles nnd gentle
men, fellow countrjmen:
No one with a heart in his breast,
no American, ,-no 'lover of humuhitjv
cau s-tnud, in the presence of these
graves without the most 'profound
emotion. These men who lie here aro
men of it unique breed. Their like
has not been seen since the far dajs
of crusades. Never before have men
crossed the seas to a foreign land to
fight for a cause of humanity which
tlmy did' not pretend was particularly
their own, but knew was the cause
of humanity nnd of mankind.
And when they came, they found
comrades for their courage and their
devotion. They found the armies of
liberty already in the field men who.
though they had gone through three
years of fiery trial, seemed only to
be just discovering, not for a moment
losing, the high temper of the great
affair, men seasoned in the bloody
service of liberty. Joining hands with
these, the men of America gave that
greatest of all gifts, the gift of life
and the gift of spirit.
Fought Unfllncingly
It will always be a treasured
memory on the part of those who
knew nnd love these men that the
testimony of everybody who saw them
In the field of action wus their un
flinching courage, their ardor to the
point of audacity, their full con
sciousness of the high cause they had
come to serve, and their constant vi
sion of the issue. It is delightful to
learn from those who saw these mcfl
fight nnd saw them waiting in the
trenches for the summons to the fight
that they had n touch of the high
spirt of religion, that they knew they
were exhibiting n spirit as well as a
physical might, and those of us who
knew nnd love America knew that
they were discocriiig the whole world,
the true spirit and devotion of their
motherland. It wns America who
came in the person of these men and
who will forever be gratefitl that she
was so represented.
And it is the more delightful to en
tertain these thoughts because we
know that these men, though buried
in a foreign land, are not buried in
nn alien soil. They are at home,
sleeping with the spirits of those who
thought the same thoughts nnd en
tertained the same aspirations. The
noble women of Suresnes have given
evidence of the loving sense with
which they received these dead ns
their, own, for they have cared for
their graves, they have 'made it their
interest, their loviug interest, to see
thaUtherc was no hour of neglect,
and that constantly through nil the
months that have gone by the moth
ers at home should know that there
were mothers here who remembered
and honored" their dead.
Message of Comradeship
"ou have just heard in the beauti
ful letter from Monsieur Clemenceau
what I believe to be the real message
of France to us on a day like this, a
message of "genuine comradeship, a
message' of genuine sjmpathy, and I
have no doubt that If our British
comrades were here, they would speak'
in the same spirit and in the samo
language. For the beauty of this war
is that it has brought a new partner
ship and a new comradeship and a
new understanding in the field ot
effort of the uation,
But It would be no profit to Us Jo
pntln on Tan Two. rlamn Three

By the Associated Press
Brest. May no. The American naval
seaplane N'C- 1 mnde nn ineffectual at
tempt todn to make the jump from
Lisbon. Portugal, to Plj mouth, Eng
laud, the scheduled last leg of her trip,
nnd thus round out her memorable
transatlantic air voyage.
Less fortunate than on the previous
flights of her journey, she wns com
pelled to land in the Mondego rivW,
about 100 miles up the coast from Lis
bon. The U. S. (ieorgc Washington late
this afternoon pick up this wireless
message :
"NC-4 landed for today. It will
continue tomorrow."
Tho message wns sent by the destroyer
Tarbell, but did not give the position
of the landing. The naval officials here -- Ka
aro of the opinion that the seanlane. '-flBEl
will remain in the Mondego river overJ22
tnfght. - i ? ?(&
The NC--1 previouslr had sent word "d
, by radio thnt she would, bei unable to J
, make Plymouth tonight but the message
of her commander seemed to indicate '
that he intended flying somewhat fur- 1
ther on his journey during the day, as
he asked the American naval authorities
. what was the best port for him to land
the seaplane within 300 miles and re
quested thnt the destroyers be kept at
their stations along the route.
! Plane in Trouble
The American -naval flier, starting
from Lisbon at 5:20 o'clock this morn
ing, in chnrge of Lieutenant Commander
A. ('. Bead, II. S. N., had not progress-
, ed very far in her flight before mes-
snges coming from the destroycrR indi
cium wmi sue was in irouuic ot some
description. She was reported nassinc
station A nt 8 a. in., and stationT at'
0:20 o'clock, fljing at a height of about
2000 feet in excellent weather.
Toward noon, however, n message
from the destroj cr Woolsey at station O
made it appear that the seaplane had
developed trouble, but it was thought at
the time that sjie had effected repairs
and resumed her flight.
At 12:30 o'clock n message from the
NC-4 was picked up by nn American
naval vessel in Brest harbor telling of -the
seaplane's desceuj. in the Mondego
river and stating that completion of tha
trip to PI) mouth today would be ira
possible.
The message said:
"NC-4 at Mondego river. Must wait
high tide. Seaplaue O. K. Cannot
make I'lj mouth tonight. Bequest de
stroyers keep stations. AVhat is best
port to imith to land seaplane within
300 miles? READ,"
There was no information as to why.
Commander Head made a landing, but
officers nssumed that the plane's engine
1 were not functioning .properly. The
plane evidently ran Into shallow water
in lauding or was left so by n receding
.tide while repairs were being made.
PI) mouth. May 30, (By A. P.)
Ncwh thnt the NC-4 had started on her
flight from Lisbon to Plymouth created
much excitement here. Hours before
the plane was expected to arrive u,rge
crowds gathered on the bluffs overlook
ing the harbor.

0 'crew of the NC-4 to proceed as speedily
0 ns possible from Plymouth to Paris, it
is announced here. He desires them to
attend the aviation conference in Paris.
