Again at Head
Of N. Y, Militia
Adjt. Gen. Barry Announces
Appointment of 27th Com?
mander to $8,000 Post;
Will Reorganize Guard
"Gratified," Says Leader
Makes Appeal for Veterans
to Join Old Organiza?
tions; Sees Added Interest
Major Grnrrnl John F. O'Ryan has
' sumrrl hin old job as divisional com
mandar of the New York militia. He
will begin immediately the reorganiza'
non of the State Guard. Hi? appoint?
ment to thin post, which p.iy? $M,000 u
year, beginning July 1, was announced
by Adjutant General Berry yesterday.
While busy preparing to move f?om
the headquarters of tho 2?th Division
m tho Hull of Record? to tho new
offices to bo occupied by the State
Guard In the Municipal Building, Gen?
eral O'Ryan took a few momenta from
his duties to comment on tho reorgani?
sation of the Guard. He exprosBod
pleasure at his appointment,
"1 am naturally gratified at the ap?
pointment," ho said, "and I am not
losing any time now in getting down
to work with my staff on the plan for
reorganization. What wo are particu?
larly anxious to do is to get the
veterans of the war to join their old
organizations. I may have something
to say about this in a few days."
Whole Companies to Join
"People do not seem to realize the
magnificent morale of tho men who !
have gone over. Why in some cases I
whole companies of men have an?
nounced their intention of joining up
just as soon as they have been dis?
charged."
General O'Ryan explained that it .
was not proposed to increase the State
Guard much over its present quota
of 20,000 men.
"There are a great many men in the
State Guard now who are waiting for

"having been old time members of the
Guard who rejoined only as stop-gaps
during the war, and the places of these
men, who are entitled to be let out.
will be taken, it. is planned, by the vet?
erans who have returned."
The regiments that have fought in
the war will lose their identity, he
?? said, and the men would become mem?
bers of tho original units of the State
Guard.
The achievements of the national
guardsmen in the war, General fS?lyan
said, had stimulated interest in the
Guard.

Sale of Articles
Made by Maimed

American Defence Society
Hootb Offers Chance for
Patriotic Citizens to Aid
Soldiers Crippled in War
Patriotic citizens who care to prove
in a material way their gratitude to
j tho soldiers who were crippled in the
groat wnr ai.' given ample opportunity
to do so by the American Dcf'enco
Society.
In the headquarters of the Woman's
National Committee of the society, at
41. Madison Avenu?, there is u nal? of
articles manufactured by the maimod
fighting men now stationed at General
II?. iMial No. .'f, Colonia, N, J. Mrs.
McAllister Bmlth In in charge of the
exhibition, and there is n variety of
handiwork that will prove, of Interest
to anybody.
Among the articles are lsmpshndes, i
carved boxes and dealt sots, book-ends, '
trays, waste baskets, decorated boxes,
bead chains, etc. The price and name
of tho maker, together with his ward !
number, are on each box. The men
themselves get fit) per cent of the ;
money from the sale and the other 60 !
per cent, goes to the school fund of
the hospital, to buy more supplies for !
the workshop.
"It is our hope," Mrs. Smith said ?
yesterday, "to establish a large sale ,
for these articles. There are more ?
than 2,000 wounded in the hospital at ;
Colonia, and many of these men are j
confronted with the outlook of having ;
nothing to do when they leave the hos- !
pital in their disabled condition. This i
work will make them self-supporting,
and as nearly all of the workers have \
lost an arm or a leg in the war, we feel ;
that it will help sustain their morale."
The exhibition is open every day i
from 9 a. m. until 6 p. m.

Soldiers Want Better
i
Jobs, Says Col. Woods |
Unemployment among discharged
soldiers and sailors is serious beyond
exaggeration and presents a situation
that must be met bv business men with ;
a bold front and with confidence, de- .
clared Colonel Arthur Woods to a !
gathering of 500 furniture manufact- !
urer3 and retailers at the Hotel Penn- !
sylvania last night. Colonel Woods !
said in many cases employers were
eager to give the soldiers their old
jobs. There are many soldiers, how?
ever, who have refused to return to
their former positions and demand bet?
ter jobs.
Colonel Woods said the big cities are
hit hardest by tho problem. In New
York there are thousands of soldiers
who normally live in other cities. Most
of them stay here to see the city and
to have a good time. He said the Cham?
ber of Commerce of the United States,
through itB many branches, had taken
the responsibility for getting many of
the boys back to their old jobs or bet?
ter ones, in some cases offering to pay
the soldiers' expenses to their home
cities.

Soldiers of the 27th Division have
been well taken care of by employers
of this city and jobs have been found
for most of those who applied at the
local oflico of the Federal Kmployment
Service, according to K. Waterhouso,
city supervisor.
"Now," said Mr. Waterhouse, "We
shall try to find places for tho men
of the 77th, although there will not
be so many jobs available. We are
encouraging the boys from out of
town fn go to their homes and find
work there."
Mr. Waterhouse said there had been
about 1,000 applications a day for
jobs, nnd about 80 per cent, of the
applicants had been placed. A new
employment office for soldiers is to be
opened soon, somewhere between
Thirtieth and Fiftieth Streets, to Rup

Cable From Gen. Pershing
to War Department Says
N. Y. Division Has Been
Assigned for Early Convoy
Hope for a Full Parade
Officers Still Insist That
First Arrivals Won't Be
Held Long in the Camps
WASHINGTON, April ?, -With the
announcement to-dny by tho War De
pnrtmnnt thnt tho 77th Division had
boon assigned by General Pershing to
oarly convoy home, officials of the oper?
ations division of tho General Staff be?
gan I lie task of preparing for tho han?
dling of the metropolitan lighters at
the camps near the port of dabarka
tlon at Hoboken upon their arrival the
last of this month.
While none of the officers in the di?
vision handling tho demobilization of
the units from overseas or Acting Sec?
retary of War Crowcll would offer any
further encouragement than that
given by Secretary of War Raker upon
his departure for Europe of the possi?
bility of the 77th Division parading as
a unit, it wan said at the department
to-day that every cooperation will be
given New York citizens in providing
an ample reception to the division
upon its return.
"The assignment to early convoy of
the 77th Division," said one officer of
the operations division, "means that
the units of the New York organization
will be on their way home by the last
week in this month, at the latest.
Must Come Close Together.
"If arrangements on the other fjide
can be made to ship the entire division
at approximately the same time, it may
not be wholly impracticable to hold
the original arrivals until the last
members reach port.
"It is Mr. Baker's desire to furnish
the relatives and friends of the boys
of the division an opportunity to wel?
come them home as a body, and it
would not surprise me if this can be
done. At any rate, an effort will be
made to provide relatives of the men
an opportunity of paying tribute to as
large a number of the units as possible
at one time, and if the returning trans?
ports come in about the same time we
may be able to speed up the handling
of the troops at Camps Mills, Merritt, j
Upton and Dix so that all will be ready i
for participation in one grand review.'
"If there f*, great difference in time
in the arrival of the first units and
the docking of the last organizations,
however, it will not be possible to keep
the men in the service for the sole
purpose of parading together. We'll
do the best we can and New York
City will have to be satisfied."
Error in the Cable
In the official announcement of the
War Department to-day on the pivis
ion's early return home two new or?
ganizations?Salvage Company No. IB
and Sale Commissary Unit No. 307?
were included*. Officers of the cable
division explained that the inclusion
of these two organizations may be
due to an error. The absence of the
305th, 306th, 307th and 308th ambu?
lance companies and field hospitals in
the list given out by the department
was likewise attributed to a cable er?
ror. It is thought, however, that the
medical detachments will come with
the other organizations.

A parade for the returning soldiers of
tho 77th Division was urged yosterday
by Major General John F. O'Ryan, for?

Not only did General O'Kyan ex?
press emphatically his approval of such

Plans Are Being Made
For Great Reception
And Review of 77th
Satisfied that a divisional review of
the 77th is practically assured, offi?
cial and private organizations inter?
ested in tho Metropolitan Division of
the National Army decided yesterday
to go ahead with plan? for the great
parade next month. This decision
principally affects the Mayor's Com?
mittee and the Home Auxiliary As?
sociation of the 77th Division, both of
which met yesterday, after the Board
of Aldermen had added (ta voice te
the chorus of demands that the army
chief? permit the review.
The following resolutions wer?
adopted by the Board of Aldermen :
"Whereas, The Board of Aldermen of
I the City of New York has learned from

Called Stupid l.v
Teachers' Union
Attempt to Stifle Free Dis?
cussion, Says President
Linville of Refusal to Al?
low Use of Buildings
The Board of Education's declaration i
of war against the Teachers' Union j
drew a sharp rejoinder from that or?
ganization yesterday. \
Because of the many attacks made
against the board by the union, and
alleged radical utterances of its mem?
bers in class rooms, the organization
was forbidden the use of school build?
ings for its meetings. An investiga?
tion of the loyalty and opinions of its
membership was also ordered.
Henry It. Linville, president of the
Teachers' Union, said yesterday that
the action of the board is a short?
sighted attempt to destroy the only
movement that has stood for freedom
of discussion of educational policies
and practices. In the matter of loy?
alty, he said, the record of the union
is clear and its 1,100 members are
ready for the board's inquiry.
"The board," he stated, "proposes to
withdraw from the union a privilege
which belongs to the teachers by nat?
ural courtesy, and is endeavoring to
use its accidental position of control
to censor the thoughts of those who
criticise the board. The schools which
belong to the people, are thereby the
schools of the Board of Education.
The Teachers' Union denies absolutely
the validity of this position.
Wi?l Urge Investigation
"All suggestion of disloyalty, thrown
out possibly from official sources, are
beside the issue. At a time when the j
educational system is sadly in need of !
teachers the board takes action that!
will create antagonism in the minds
of thousands of instructors and fright?
en other thousands. I shall, there?
fore, urge upon the Teachers' Union
at a meeting to bo held at Terrace
Garden, Fifty-eighth Street and Third
Avenue, on Saturday nfternoon ?t .'.'30
o'clock, the immediate organization of
an investigating committee to work
conjointly with a public committee to
undertake the investigation of the edu?
cational system. We shall be abb? to
show that the Board of Education is
less qualified by education and experi?
ence for the direction of the schools
thon are tho teachers."
Linville charges that pnrtisnn and
personal politics determine the ap?
pointments to the higher positions In
the service. He asserted that the lnst
two appointments to high school po?
sitions were determined on political
grounds by members of the Board of
education, while the recommendations
of tho Board of Superintendents were
cast aside. He snid the supervision
of the touchers by fault-finding Su?
pervisors has destroyed their profes?
sional spirit.
Chargen Gross Stupidity
"Tho union Halms," he said, "that
the training given to children in the
Now York srliooln doe . no! prepare
them for oltinenshlr In n democracy?
Htupldlty Ifl the attitude of mind In the
eduootlonal m,vm(?? tu. und liitelllgoneo,

dltions, is crushed. The lonelier? can

Both Arthur H. Homer,?, presiden! <>f
the Board of Kduoallon, and Suponln
tendent of School. William I,, Mm ini-er,
said yesterday that the teachers who
opposed the constituted authority would
have to go if th?? board hud tho author- i
lty to dismiss them. j
Dr. Kttlngor said he wan going ahead
with bis plans for Investigating the
membership of tho organization. "Free '
speech," be said, "doesn't constitute
ri license to rant ?iKiiiust the educa?
tional system. Wo ore going to insist
on Americanism in our schools, and
the teachers who pretend to teach on??
set of doctrines in tho doy timo and
another set of doctrines at. night, which
are not in harmony with the spirit of
our government, will hiivo to go,"

Tho victorious sailors of America's
mighty fleet will drop their anchors
into a perfect haven of entertainment

Throughout the fifteen days that the
great armada rides the waters of the
Hudson Itlvor this city will make an
effort, to entortaln Its crews In a man?
ner commensurate with tho prowoss of
their gallant deeds. Prom April LC to]
April 80 there will bo mi InceitBanI
round of pleasure for the war weary
gobs, and i heir brave commanders,
With this end in view, the officers
in charge of fleet entertainment, yeitor
day issued an invitation to all organi?
zations'engaged in war activities to co?
operate in the welcoming festivities.
Already the Seven Big war organiza- ;
tions had pooled their resource and ac- j
commodation to achieve this purpose.
Yesterday, as a result of this official
appeal, the Mayor's Committee of Wel?
come joined the others. Now every ef- ?
fort of the city will be coordinated in j
the soie purpose of giving the sailors
a "good time."
The statement from the Mayor's com- j
mittee announced that its members
would accompany heads of the Navy
Department, including Acting Secretary j
Franklin D. Roosevelt and Hear Admiral
William S. Sims, on a trip down the bay !
to welcome the fleet.
Naval Parade Later On
The statement makes no mention of
the steps taken to entertain the men. j
It declares that while there will be no |
naval parade during the stay of the j
fleet, "it understands that before mid- |
summer there will be a great naval
paradefin this city. This demonstration j
will show to the" residents of New York
practically every branch of the naval
service, and will probably be reviewed
by President Wilson, the members of
his Cabinet and most of the state and
city officials."
The officer in charge of fleet enter?
tainment yesterday stated that "owing
to the short time during which ar?
rangements have been under way, it i
was impossible to approach the Mayor's j
committee until to-c'.ay." This explains j
why the latter committee took no offi- |
cial action until yesterday.
From the headquarters of the seven :
war work organizations it was an- |
nounced that arrangements had prac?
tically been completed for entertaining
the 30,000 sailors during their fort?
night's stay in the city. An uninter?
rupted series of dances, parties, din- I
ners, automobile rides and theatre par?
ties had been scheduled. Housing and
feeding facilities have been fully pre?
pared. Every hut, canteen and hotel
have been pressed into service to ac?
commodate thp victorious sailors.
Girls Will Teach Dances
A great volunteer army of the city's
fairest daughters is being mobilized to
give the men an opportunity to enjoy
fully the jazz music that has been
prepared for them. To the gobs who
have spent blood-f roe-zing hours
through the bitter cold watches in the
North Sea on a vibrating destroyer
the prohibited "shimmy" dance will
come as second nature, but to the
others lessons will bo necessary.
Fully half of the personnel of the
Victory fleet served aboard tho lean
but speedy destroyers. Life on these
"hornets of the sea" was vividly de?
scribed yesterday by Major Randolph
Coyle, U. 8. Marine Corps,' tho officer
who has been detailed by tho Navy De
pa rtmeut to coordinate tho work of
tho organizations that are to entertain
the fleet. Tho neount should Stimu?
late every organization to redoubled
effort to throw the city gloriously
open to the fighting men of the sea.
"""Hard Life In a Wintry Sen
"These men of tho dnRtroyers," said
Major Coyle, "have Btood on the open

\ Admiral William H. Cnperton, com
mander In chief of D'f* United Stn oi

tenluy on his flagship, tho cruiser
Pittsburgh.
Floating far out in the breczo from ;
the mainmast of tho cruiser was a .00 j
foot pennant, indicative of the four
year cruise she htid made in Pacific |
waters.
Admiral Caperton brings his flagship i
to join the vanguard of the American j
Victory fleet that will hold a triumph- j
ant review in the Hudson from April j
15 to May 1.
As tho cruiser passed through the I
Narrows an admiral's salute boomed I
forth from the guns of the guardship ?
Amphitrite. The Pitsburgh came to
anchor off Ninetieth Street, and Ad-j
mirai Caj>crton haulod down his flag,
officially marking the end of the com?
mission as flagship of the Pacific fleet, j
Since the demotion of Admiral Sims j
to the rank of rear-admiral, Admiral !
Caporton is one of the three full ad- i
mirais still in active service. The
others are Admiral Benson, chief of
operations, and Admiral Mayo, com?
mander in chief of the Atlantic fleet.
Whether Admiral Caperton will revert
to his pre-war rank has not been <3e
termined.
Rescues Crew of Schooner
While the Pittsburgh was off the
Brazilian coast she received e wireless
message to go to the assistance of the
American schoorifer Chaska, which was
reported to be on fire.
Captain Harbridge of the Chaska
said his vessel was coal laden, bound
from Durban, South Africa, for Buenos
Ay res, on March 15, when she began
to fill with gas. Soon afterward fire
was discovered and for several days
afterward by a strange freak the lire
the flames, until the hatches were
blown off by a violent explosion.
The captain, his wife, and the crew of
eleven men then abandoned their ship
and took to an open boat. Shortly
afterward by a str?nget freak the fire
died down and apparently had burnt
itself out. The crew returned to the
ship and endeavored to bring her
back to port. Trtey had sailed 270
miles when the fire broke out again
and compelled them to abandon the
schooner for a second time. After be?
ing adrift for fifty-six hours the ship?
wrecked crew managed to reach the
island of Trinidad, it was there they
were picked up by the Pittsburgh.
Future Plans Unknown
Shortly after bis flagship bad
dropped anchor yesterday Admiral
Caperton said: "I am waiting orders
from Washington, and until 1 receivo
them 1 do not. know what my future
plans will be."
No said he had been away from bis
home in Springfield, Tenn., since 1916,
and was anxious to return there for a
visit. The admiral plans to meet
members of his family in this city.
During tin? war the Pacific fleet hns
been patrolling the Pacific and South
Atlantic waters. During tho latter part
of L917 formal calls were made at the
chief ports of several S#ilh American
republics. There Admiral Caperton
hnd bis officers were guests of the
Presidents of the various countries.
These calls wetn resumed this year.
Tin? last reception, in Rio de Janeiro

greatest welcome ever given a foreign
