rade through the streets of Phila
delphia.
Home lu a Cult
This would permit the sending
home to llarrisburg as a unit the
Harrlsburg men who marehed away
to the war In the Governor's Troop,
Companies 1> and I and the smaller
orgs nidations.
Plans for a similar demobilization
of the 79th division also are being
considered. Philadelphia. Baltimore
and Washington huve put in claims
for a parade of this crack organiza
tion which trained at Camp Meade
and is composed of National Army
men from Eastern Pennsylvania,
Maryland and the District of Co
lumbia. Dauphin county men large
ly make up the 316t1i Infantry in
this division. It was this regiment
that a returned Phtladelphiu officer
described as having men who
'fought and died like heroes."
Plan Big Pageant
The suggestion made by Mayor
Keisler that Harrlsburg wait until
its men get home to celebrate peace
in formal fashion has gained many
supporters when it was learned that
in all probability the soldiers can
get home in a body for a parade that
it is generally conceded ought to be
the greatest pageant the city has
ever known.
Definite arrangements for the pa
rade cannot he made, it was pointed
out, until it is learned at what time
the hundreds of men in other divi
sions will have returned. It is prob
able. however, that the 3,000 men
of Dauphin county will want to join
with those of Harrisburg in the pa
geatit. It is generally believed that
most of the youths serving with the
Navy will be home by the time the
soldiers return s# that every branch
of the service may be represented.
General March in discussing the
situation said:
"In handling this problem of de
mobilization, one of the features
which had to be considered was the
subsequent retaining of men for the
Regular Army, or what will be the
Regular Army, when Congress pass
es laws reorganizing that Army.
When the war broke out there were
only a limited number of such men
In the service, and the great num
ber of men who filled out these units
were men who voluntarily enlisted
for the period of the war. So we
have offered these men who came in
for the period of the war the option
I of re-enlisting if they care to.
"We have offered an immediate
honorable discharge with a furlough
of one month upon re-enlistment and
we propose to ask Congess to give
every single man who has been hon
| orably discharged one month's pay,
whatever his grade is, as a bonus.
I Every man who is discharged from
the Army is entitled to wear his uni
form for a period of three months.
; that is a very necessary thing, be
cause the releasing to civil life of
three or four million men makes it
! impossible to clothe in civilian
! clothes so great a number.
"As men are discharged, we take
iup tlie question of the officers. Of
i iicers who want to apply for com
missions in the Regular Army will
! be considered; officers who want to
put themselves in a class where
I they can bo used for further mili
i tary operations, will be offered coin
! missions in the reserve corps. The
rest of them will be. discharged.
"1 have cabled General Pershing
1 to return to the United States on
! troop transports all the men who
i are casuals or convalescents, sick
j and wounded who are able to be
moved: and these men will come in
a steady flow across the Atlantic be
j fore the larger number come back
I as units-."

The Rotarians sang a new, song,
written to the tune of the Battle
Hymn of the Republic, entitled, "The
.Guard on the Rhine," from the pen
of a new member, Lee Moss, as fol
ilows:
See the Yankee soldier boys go oer

Fritz salutes the Stat' and Stripes. ,
he's got to do It tine,
As our boys go march on.
Chorus
Glory, glory, hallelujah, etc.
Yanks are basking on the ramparts
of the old fortress of Metz,
• The Germans used to hold it but I
they've passed in their regrets.
The harder the Doughboys push him,
tl\e faster Frltzy "gels,"
As our boys go marchin on.
Chorus
Two million- Yankee soldiers went,
across he briny sea.
They fought and died and won a .

They helped to bring to all the world

And they are marchin on.

The victorious Allies will not con- j
corn themselves primarily, it is be- !
lUAed, with Germany's redemption
of her own national' debt, since this
is largely internal. Comparatively
small amounts of German war bonds
are owned outside Germany and per

citizens of the United States, former
German suhjc*". Officials here who
have known Internul condltlbns In
Germany in the past do not believe
the government will repudiate the
internal indebtedness, but rather
think that taxes will be made so
heavy as to force citizens to turn in
their bonds in settlement. In this
way the debt would be canceled
without actual repudiation
