26 VICTORIOUS, GERMANY FOSTER SPIRIT OF HA TRED AGAINST AMERICA [Continued From First Page] Scene is Brilliant It was one of the most remarkable meetings in the history of the city. The brilliant scene within the hall was in sharp contrast with the weather outside. Thousands of waving flag's festooned from the ceiling and hung from the walls and the uniformed men of the Governor's troop and the Eighth Regiment distributing flags among the audience lent a martial air to the scene. By 7:30 almost every seat was taken and still the people continued to stream in, while the big Bethlehem Steel Company band played "America." "Rally 'Round the Flag," "Dixie," and other patriotic airs, drowning for the moment the roar of the rain as it fell in thundering sheets upon the roof of the building. The thrill of an unusual occasion was In the air. Time and time again as the band swung from one war tune to another and a stand ard bearer in the rear at intervals waved in unison a largo silk American Hag the audience broke into a whirl wind of spontaneous applause. Yet, withal, it was no flamboyant, holiday, "hurrah for the American flag" cheer for the sake of cheering crowd that was gathered to hear Mr. Gerard's message. One was impressed with the quiet, earnest, determined almost solemn temper of the people as sembled. They gave every Indication of fully comprehending the seriousness of the situation confronting the nation and of the part of self-sacrifice that many of them might be called upon to play in the conflict that must follow. But if there was a wavering spirit among them it was not evident. How closely those assembled had studied the international situation leading up to the declaration of war and how thoroughly all of them agree in the stand that lias been taken was in dicated by the prompt response to every point made by Mr. Gerard. E. J. Cattell, of Philadelphia, Governor Brumbaugh, who presided, and David K. Tracy, president of the Chamber of Commerce, who opened the meeting, in their timely and inspiring ad dresses. Rod Cross Campaign Back of the platform hung great placards calling for assistance in re cruiting the Red Cross to war strength and the audience as it stream ed into the hall found on eaoh seat an envelope to be filled out and given 1o the usher at the door enrolling the signer as a member. Hundreds joined the Red Cross in this way. It was the first step to recruit five thou sand new members in Harrisburg. Everywhere the men of the Gover nor's Troop and the Eighth Regiment who wfere present in uniform were warmly greeted as they went about distributing flags. They richly merited the compliment Mr. Gerard paid them in his speech when in thanking them for turning out in the rain to welcome him* at the station he said: "I have been all over warring Europe and nowhere did I see a snappier body of cavalry than the Governor's Troop nor a smarter, better set-up company of infantry." As Mr. Gerard and his escort filed into the rear of the hall the band struck up "America" and the audience standing sang the anthem through as the party took their places on the raised platform at the front of the auditorium, conspicuous among them being Governor Brumbaugh, President Tracy and the striking figure of the snowy-haired Mr. Cattell, whose ad dress was to be one of the most en thusiastically received of the evening. Mr. Tracy introduced Governor Brumbaugh as the presiding officer in a speech that struck the keynote of the meeting—the great part Pennsyl vania has always played in the wars of the Republic and the Immense im portance of the Keystone Common wealth to the Nation at large in the momentous decision of armed conflict with Germany. The Governor re ceived unquestionably the greatest ovation of the evening. As he arose to speak the audience burst into ap plause which steadily and very per ceptibly increased in volume until it was fairly deafening. He and the other speakers were repeatedly inter rupted by cheers, flag salutes and handclapping. Audience Sings Patriotic Airs Only compliments were heard of the splendid arrangements for the great audience in Chestnut Street Audi torium. There was no confusion at any time, and under the direct eye of the officials of the Chamber of Com merce, including two ex-presidents, Henderson Gilbert and J. William Bowman,.the people were seated and the exercises proceeded without a hitch. Upon the arrival of the speak ers and the reception committee they were escorted by the ushers to their positions on the platform, the audience standing and singing a national air. No feature of the whole affair was more delightful than the music of the Bethlehem Steel Company's line band. This organization was procured through the good offices of Quincy Bent, manager of the Steelton plant. It is a perfect organization and added much to the success of the great oc casion. At the conclusion of the meet ing Governor Brumbaugh personally expressed to the leader of the organi zation his appreciation and the appre ciation of all present of the excellent program.

APRIL 6, 1917. ber of Commerce, with lits start saw that every detail was given close at tention, and to this fact was due much of the success of an unusual occasion. In the opinion of many who gave ex pression to their feelings at the close of the meeting, it was a clean cut program of speech making rarely known for such occasions, all of which served as added fuel to the great flame of patriotism that the drenching downpour never for a mo ment had the slightest chance of quenching. In Ills introductory remarks Mr. Gerard complimented the local mili tary organizations, the Governor's Troop and Companies D and I of the Eighth Regiment, in the highest terms. He said ihat he had never seen military units anywhere which had made a greater impression upon him by reason of their snappy move ments and tine appearance. In at tention as did also the Red Cross dele gation. The young women who have organized and are doing notable work In the local branch of the Red Cross were busy throughout the day in add ing members to the corps. They were attired in the regular Red Cross uni form and the work which they are doing in this community is just be ginning to be appreciated. renna. Arsenal of Nation Pennsylvania was declared by Mr. Gerard to be the arsenal of the na tion, and Governor Brumbaugh pledg ed the honor of the Commonwealth in standing back of its readiness to do its share in the country's work. A tenth of all the money and men which President Wilson can hope to throw into the field must come from this State. That Pennsylvania would stand ready to come to the nation's aid as It did once a half century ago under Governor Curtin at tlie call of Abra ham Lincoln, was the declaration of the Governor, who was called upon by David E. Tracy, president of the Chamber of Commerce, to preside at the meeting. Mr. Tracy referred to the tremendous resources of Pennsyl vania and to the widespread desire of her people to support the President. He also dwelt upon Governor Brum baugh's appointment of two hundred representative citizens as a committee of safety before the actual declaration of war. Governor Martin G. Brumbaugh was the first speaker of the evening and in introducing Ambassador Gerard said in part: Pledges State "My friends and fellow citizens 1 ac cept the kind invitation of the Chamber of Commerce to preside at this meeting to-night. It Is with great pleasure and a deep sense of responsibility that I stand before you on this mo mentous occasion. It is no small matter as we gather here to night, under conditions such as have not been on our State for many years. It is an unparalleled hour for all of us, and one in which we should feel proud to confess our American citi zenship. There will be no shortage in this State in this hour of need, either in money or men. We will be called upon to furnish one-tenth of the re sources of the nation to the President In his hour of need and It must not be thought that this Commonwealth will waver in its duty. As this State, un der Governor Curtin, stood behind Lin coln more than a half century ago, so it will stand behind President Wil son in this hour of need. "This is a momentous hour for an other reason. The President in his hour of need sent one of the most dis tinguished men as Ambassador to Ger many. He carried himself like a pat riot through this hour of tribulation. He has come back, through no fault of his own, and has honored us to speak at this momentous occasion. It affords me great pleasure to intro duce to you one who has recently re turned from the Imperial Court of Germany, Ambassador Gerard." Lauds MeCormii'li Following Governor Brumbaugh ex- Ambassador Gerard said, in part: "It affords me unbounding pleasure to speak before such a patriotic gath ering as is assembled here to-night: especially so because it is the capital of this great Commonwealth of Penn sylvania, the center of the nation's arsenal. If It would not be for Penn sylvania, America could not enter the war. In this State you have all the means for making war parapherna lia." The former ambassador compli mented ex-Mayor McCormick for his part in electing Wilson. Taken Only Step "President Wilson has been three years trying to keep us out of the war, bearing the most unjust criticism with silence. Now after considering the matter thoroughly from all angles he has done the only one thing to do. "Now I suppose you want to hear something of the country which liked me so well that they kept me one week after I asked for my passports. As a general rule when an ambassador asks for his passport papers, he is given them at once, but not so with Germany. When I asked why they did not give them to me I was told it was because they had heard that the Am erican people had not treated their ambassador as he should have been treated. My reply was that the United States never acted uncourteously to any person. I T . S. Misunderstood "The German people do not under stand us. America has been abused by : the German press and the people are | made to believe that we are a people :with fat purses In hunt of dollars. They I have the Idea that the United States fears them and in a conversation with I a German official he said to me: 'Why | the United States does not dare to do anything against Germany. There are 1 five thousand reservists in America who would rise up against you if any , thing was done.' My reply to him I was that there are five hundred thou sand and one lamp posts in the United States and if the reservists rise up they will be hanging on them in a short time. "I believe the German people in this country are loyal. They have come to this land, which has given them an opportunity to become rich and pros perous and I think they will stand by us in this hour of need. It is my opinion that the German people in this country are anxious to climb on the band wagon of Americanism and we should help and encourage them in every way possible. To Fight For Democracy "We do not want to enter this war, but we have been drawn into it. We are not fighting against the German people, but a system that has com mitted murder against the rules of international war and humanity. It has been three days since the Presi dent made his speech and there has been no revolution yet. We are not entering this war to fight the people, but a system which has choked the liberty and the progress of the world. "It would be a far more pleasurable task to keep out of the war and rep resent other nations, but it cannot be. While In Germany I represented many countries and It was a great pleasure for me to do so. I did everything pos sible to aid the Imprisoned soldiers there. In this line of work the Y. M. C. A. Is doing a great work, especially In prison camps. . "In no war has there been so many prisoners, but. there are two million now In Germany alone. In winter time tliey are shut up In prisons and in the summer are leased out to the farmers for six cents a day, Americans are doing a great work in Belgium and France under the supervision o£ liar Bert C. Hoover. The people in North ern France are fed entirely by food sent from the United States and 1 re ceived a letter only a day or so ago asking me to devise some means to carry on the work among the six mil lions of people in Northern France and the five millions In Belgium. They fear that they will starve If a break be tween the United States and Germany would come. I have a copy of a letter from Belgians In Germany, stating that, they have been carried off and forced to work and that they solicit protec tion. The letter says that twenty exiles were packed in a small space on a train and traveled for forty-six hours with nothing to eat but six bowls of soup. Later they were taken to a hotel where they were forced to sleep on the bare floor. They refused to work and were kicked and beaten with the butt ends of guns and compelled to labor under military guard.. One hun dred and fifty thousand Belgians have been carried into forced slavery since the war broke out; taken from a little country which never did anything but resist an unjust invasion. Scores Autocracy "When the President said in his speech that war was declared to fight a system, he was right. German auto cracy is without bounds.. The Reich stag Is composed of this autocracy and it is nothing more nor less than a de bating society, which debates on the laws. Germany has been ruled by militarism since war broke. out. The people have no say and are sub jects of the army. Mayors and all other civic officers and laws were cast aside when war was started. The Kaiser cannot appoint an officer in the army. To become an officer in the army a man must belong to a certain class. All the officers have a right to blackball and In this way the Prussian officers have kept control of the army. Would Attack U. S. Next The President has been superlative ly patient for two years to keep out of the war, but there is no other way out. If Germany wins the present war she would attack the United States. The German peopie have a hatred for the United States, which has not been made known here. But I have been in intimate touch with conditions and know. The German Government has said: 'We must keep the coast of Bel gium clear so that we can attack Eng land and the United States.' The news which gets to this country is censored by' the Krupps and nothing gets through concerning the real feeling of the Germans toward the United States. Many of the largest newspapers in Ger many have advocated war with the United States, to bear the expenses of the present war should Germany win. "There isn't the slightest doubt of Germany coming here if she wins the war. Germany intends to destroy the Monroe Doctrine if possible, but we are not going to war to prevent this alone. We are going to war for a greater purpose—to establish the democracy, liberty and peace of the world." Mr. Geard was given a great ovation at the conclusion of his speech. Mr. Cattell Speaks on Crisis Edward J. Cattell, known all over the country as "The Grand Old Man of Pennsylvania," was the next speak er and in introducing him Governor Brumbaugh said: "Mr. Cattell is a man who makes from six to ten speeches a day and eats a meal with every one. As an eater and a speaker he is unparalleled in this State and perhaps the country." In his introductory remarks Mr. Cattell referred to the fact that his uncle, the Rev. Dr. Cattell, was pas tor of the Pine Street Presbyterian Church in Harrisburg at the beginning of the Civil War, who afterward be came president of Lafayette College. Mr. Cattell said in part: Greatest Page of History "We are writing the world's great est page of history. We are signing a new Declaration of Independence. We are once more affirming, as did our fathers, the unalienable right of man to life, liberty and the pursuit of hap piness. only, backed by the tre mendous wealth, the immense body of population, the wonderful mental and moral development of America. Under spur of that first Declaration of Inde pendence, we are now embracing in its beneficent influence the old world over seas and bringing a message of hope to millions who before have only known a sun was shining by the shadows on their path. "When we in America ranged our selves on the side of those who recog nized the God in man and the sanc tity of human life, the life of man was taken in many countries for the most trivial offense against property rights—the stealing of some small ar ticle, an article which could be re placed or compensated for—a human life taken that could never be re stored, a gift received directly from the hand of the living God destroyed. This great Capitol of this great State has* during the present year, and all through this holy season of Lent, been vocal with clamor for the abolition of the death penalty for murder, marking the high crest of this wave •of sentiment, holding in higher aqd still higher value, human life. "It Is important that we Americans, —claiming to act each as a sovereign of divine right, and basing our gov ernment on the idea that we exist through moral means to morals ends, —should see our way clearly in any , radical change in policy, in the in auguration of such a momentous policy as that of war with a great European power, i have emphasized, therefore, this dominant American note —a value higher than ever before placed on human life—in order to more clearly answer the oft-repeated argument that we discriminated against Germany, and in favor of En gland, during the course of this war, and that out of this discrimination the present situation has developed. "England, at times, did Interfere with our commerce on the high seas, but only to attack property—never human life. This property loss can be repaid and will be repaid in due course of law. On the other hand, Germany has taken human life, which can never be restored or repaid. The two lines of action are diametrically opposite, the latter striking directly at the root principle of our life as a na tion. Right to Sell Arms "Another point which should be clearly understood is the fact that we were bound in honor, as well as under law, to sell arms to the belligerents; and therefore all this cry in favor of an embargo on the sale of arms to the Allies has either been based upon gross ignorance or a wilful misinter pretation of well-known documentary evidence. The Hague conference specifically embodied, in Article No. 7, the rule that no ne\:tral nation was compelled to forbid its subjects from supplying war materials to bellig erents. "This provision was placed in this document—a document created to se cure, it was hoped, the peace of the world, by our influence, and it was placed there in order that we mlgh continue our peaceful policy of earn ing only a. small store of ammunition <tnd maintaining a small establish ment of defense: for it was arsrued, If we have the right in America to buy arms and ammunition from other na tions when we are attacked by a heavily atmed European power, we can then secure in five weeks weapons of defense which we could not pro duce at home, under ordinary condi tions, in five years. Benefit Smaller Nations "The idea was supposed to be wholly for our benefit and for the I benefit of smaller nations which, like the United States, carried only a lim ited army of defense. It was a peace move pure and simple. It was an American idea and move pure and simple, and to have placed an em bargo on the export of arms would have been to have deliberately repudi ated our own plan of action, proposed for our own protection, when that plan of action benefited another party to the contract, as the agreement specifically states that the prohibition of things not mentioned as necessary of prohibition might constitute an un friendly act. Any embargo placed upon the export of arms by the Unit ed States would have been clearly an unfriendly act against the Allies. "It Is Important, as I said before, to stand before the world with clean hands in this question of neutrality; and we do so stand, and can enter this war clearly Justified, "y a God-given right, to defend those principles which are of God, from God and through God's providence destined to work for the benefit of God's children here on earth the inalienable right of man to life, liberty and the pursuit of hap piness, the groat democratic idea of government through consent of the governed. Prospered Our Laml "God has marvelously prospered this wonderful land. In material mat ters, during my own life, the wealth of America has grown from seven thou sand millions to one hundred and ninety millions of dollars, and its pop ulation multiplied from thirty millions to one hundred and five millions. One of my dearest friends fifty years ago was Carl Schurz, with whom I made I a trip to California in August, 1869, or nearly a half century ago. Schurz was then U. S. Senator from the State of Missouri. He was one of the most popular men in the United States; and our western trip was one long ovation for this one-time resident of Germany. I had from the lips of Mr. Schurz re peatedly, not only on that trip but during the years that followed, up to the time of his death, the assurance that his coming to America was like a new birth into a new life, with a new range of opportunities absolutely Impossible in his old environment. "We have acted honorably during this terrible ordeal of the past three years. We have suffered insult which would have justified £ln earlier resort to arms. We have exercised that pa tience and forbearance which well be comes the strong man. but now I be lieve we have passed that point where patience Is a virtue, where a further submission to insult would be to for feit our right to be called men, our right to a national life; to forfeit wholly our right to a voice in the councils of the nations of the world. Any other course than that adopted by President Wilson would, in my mind, justify any critic in writing the word "Decadent" across the face of the American people, in inscribing the words "Ancient History" on the face of the Declaration of Independence, "Obsolete" across the pages of the American Constitution. Enter on Good Friday "Let each man and each woman, as we enter on Good Friday—a day which means so much to so many in the way of sacrifice for others—take to his or her heart and embody in his or her acts, the spirit of America expressed in the closing lines of the Battle Hymn of the Republic: "As He died to make men holy, Let us die to make men free, While God is marching on." "Stand by the President —My Presl dent, your President—Our President. SAGE TEA DANDY = 10 DAB HAIR It's Grandmother's Recipe to Bring Back Color and Luster to Hair.
