May 1 Is Set as
Tentative Date
Of 77th Parade
Committees Go Ahead With
Plans Despite Discourag
ing Reports on Review Re?
ceived From Washington
Draft Board Men Meet
Pass Resolution Saying It
Will Aid Americanization
To Have Division March
Resolutions calling for a parade of
the 77th Division as a unit were
adopted last night at a meeting of
more than 100 chairmsn of local draft
boards held in the chambers of the
Bar Association of New York. Judge
Charles E. Hughes was chairman of
the meeting. The resolutions will be
forwarded to-day to Secretary Baker
and to the Chief of Staff of the Ameri?
can army.
Plans were going ahead, however,
in anticipation of a complete review
of the 77th. Earlier in the day the
Mayor's Committee of Welcome an?
nounced May 1 as the tenative date for
the parade. It will be within a couple
days after the division's arrival at
Haboken, it was said.
Th? same activity was apparent at
the headquarters of the 77th advance
party in the Hotel Biltmore.
Last night's meeting was addressed
by Lieutenant Colonel Douglas Camp
bell, of the advance party, and an ad
dress was made by Dr. William T. Man?
ning, chairman of the Home Auxiliary
Association, of the 77th Division. Thc
resolutions were adopted when it had
become evident that plans for the ar?
rival and parade of the 77th Division
as a single unit were still disregarded
by the War Department.
Tho resolutions represented the
opinion of the combined district and
local boards, government appeal
ngents, legal advisory boards and local
law boards and members of the medi?
cal boards of New York City, repre
senting a registration of about 1,500,
000 men. The resolution pointed out
the brilliant reeord made by the divi?
sion and said in part:
"We believe that no distinction
should be made between the welcome
to be aceorded the 77th Division and
that aceorded to any other division.
Re.sentment Will Be Great
"We believe, on the other hand. that
if matters of more routine expedience
in the War Department are allowed to
interfert with this parade, the disap
pointment and resentment of the peo?
ple of this city will be very great. We
further believe the review will have
a stimulating effect on the Victory
Loan drive in this city."
The resolutions further stipulated
that the Selective Service personnel
have some active part in the celegra
tion to the soldiers and that thcy also
particin^te in securing employment for
the discharged men of the division.
The measure proposed that a com?
mittee of thirty be selected for this
work.
Martin Conbay, director of the draft
during the war, addressed the meeting
and read a telegram from the office of '
the Chief of Staff which declared that
units may parade as they arrived, but. j
told of the War Department's refusal '
to promise a sailing of the whole divi- '
sion.
"The War Department must put the I
difficulties out of hte way in the good,
oM-fashioned American fashion and
give us the parade," said Dr. Manning.
"There could be no better Americani?
zation of our citizens than this parade.
There is a feeling that if they are not
allowed to parade it will represent an
expression of discrimination against
the drafted men."
Lamentable, Says Hughes
Judge Hughes said it was lamcntab
b!e that the men did not return to thc
draft boards for help in getting jobs,
and he said to tho chairmen, "After
the tumult and shouting dies get the
men jobs."
Senator William M. Calder was a
speaker. "I am anxious to see that
the 77th Division has its day in the
Senate," he said. "You can count on
me for anything possible within my
power." Senator Calder recently ca?
bled President Wilson and sent mes
sages urging the divisional parade to
Secretary Baker and Major General
Peyton C. March.
The selection of a committee of .30
which will consider plans for a mass
meeting to be held at Carnegie Hall
will take place today. Judge Hughes
will confer with Mr. Conboy and James
Hallock, chairman of Draft Board 62 of
Brooklyn, and the selection will be
bemade.
"The 77th Division will parade in
close formation and will pass the re
viewing stand within one hour, if the
people will stand back ofT tlie streets
and let the men march," Lieutenant
Colonel Douglas Campbcll, in charge
of the division's advancb party, said
>csterday at headquarters in the Hotel
Biltmore.
Further hope for a review of the en?
tire division was contained in an an?
nouncement that Major Lewis Sanders,
of the 304th Field Artillery, who sailed
from France on April 5 on the Platts
hurg, had orderB to report to Colonel
Campbell and take up his duties with
the advance party. Major Sanders takes
thc place of Major James A. Roosevelt,
who died whiio returning on tho Levia
than.

twenty-sixth Street and Lexington
Avenue, said yesterday that the 09th
N. Y. G., thc 69th Regiment Veteran

Admiral Sims Files His
Report; Off for Newport
Roosevelt Tells How He Was
Sent Inognito to England
at Amhassador's Rcquest
WASHINGTON, April 9.?Rear Ad?
miral William S. Sims to-day per
sonally delivered to the Navy Depart?
ment a report on his service as com
mander-in-chief of the American naval
forces in European waters during the
war. Hc also confcrred with high of?
ficers of the department. The Admiral
left here to-night for Newport, R. I.
After meeting newspaper corres?
pondents and posing for a photograph
before an oil painting of American de
stroyers on convoy duty, executed by
a British artist, Admiral Sims greeted
! the officers of the Navy Department in
j Secretary Daniels' office. Acting Scc
! retary Rooscvelt disclosed during the
i reception how the Admiral was chosen
i for his mission to England just before
j the United States went to war.
Ambassador Walter Hines Page had
! cabled an urgent rcquest that an officer
: of high rank bc sent for. conferences
| with the British admiralty, Mr. Roose
i velt said, and the message was shown
| to President Wilson, when the latter
| dropped in for ono of his unheralded
| visits to the department. Mr. Roose
j velt suggested Admiral Sims for the
job, the President said "Fino, send
Sims," and soon afterward Sims was

Handley Page Aims
To Make Certain
Of Ocean Flight
Elahorate Preparations Are
Being Made to Insure
Success With Big 'Plane,
Says English Backer
Kuroprnn Bureau
New Yotk Tribune
(t'opyrlght. 1913. New York Trthune Inc.)
LONDON, April 9.?"Even if wc
start in the middlo of Junc we do
not believe other machines will fore
stall us in a transatlantic flight," said
Handley Page to-day, "but we do cx
pect to make the flight something ap
proaching a certainly and not a mere
spectacular dash. Tho machine will :
be oi the standard bombing type, cap- I
able of carrying a pilot and six pas- i
scngers besides armament. It will ]
have petrol accomodations for 2,000
gallons.
"Naturally we are not going to risk
a machine like this, apart from the
lives, for mere sensationalism. We ''
pin our faith mainly to tlie four cn- j
gincs and the special Marconi instal- !
ation. Our argument against a single- !
engine machine is that each propellor !
will be required to make from one to j
two million revolutions to complete
the journey. This being a fact, the I
sparking plugs is almost bound to bc- j
come caked without the pilot having
an opportunity to put it to rights, in
which case his journey will be finished.
On the other hand, if two of our en
gines fail, the pilot will be able to
carry on with the others.
"We think this makes all thc differ
ence between safety and disaster.
"In addition to thi3 we will carry a
special directional wircless capable of
receiving messages from a long dis?
tance. Obscrvations of upper air con?
ditions which the Air Ministry is now
making will prove of the utmost as?
sistanee, although we are convinced
that we are certain of the assistanee of
a twenty-mile-an-hour wind.
"We expect to average a speed of
ninety miles throughout the trip and
will endeavor to land on thc Irish coast.
"The span of the machine will be 126
feet and the overall length 65 feet. The
total horsepower will be 1,400."
Handley Page refused to disclose
the names of the aviators, but it is
generally expected that Major Tryggve
Gran, the Norwegian, who accompanied
Captain Scott to the Antarctic, will be
the pilot.

Sprrial Corrcspowlrvrc
ST. JOHN'S, N. F., April 9. The
| Sopwith airplane, in which Harry
I Hawker, the British aviator now here,
plans shortly to make ;\ flight across
I the Atlantic, is ready. The final
touches for the trial trips will he
i put on to-morrow. It must then wait
j for a period r.f fine weather to dry thc
I ground sufficicntly for a start. 'This
| may mean a number of days.
The weather here rarely clears and
Swarms before May 1, but. the airmen
! are hopeful that the flight will be
j possible before that date. There is
| danger that with the ground wet, a
i prcmature flight may cause thc thrco

and suffer damage that may make thc
. flight impossible.
; It is improbable that. anything can
j bc done before the end of the week
| or possibly later, and lhe chanccs nre
j in favor of it being well into next week
j beforo even a trial flight can be made.

No Parade, but
Fun Galore for
Men of Fleet
Official Acceptance of City's
Welcome for Sailors and
Marines Is Received From
Admiral Mayo
The 30,000 triumphant goba of
: Amcrica's victory fleet yesterday ac
! ceptcd the city's plans for their en
i tertainment. They accepted joyously,
too, official word of the Navy Depart
j ment that no regulations or officialism
; would mar their stay in New York
! from April 15 to Aprll 30.
They sent their acceptance through
i their commander in chief, Admiral
j Mayo, by wireless from the base at
i Guantanamo, Cuba. It came to Major
j Kandolph Coyle, United States Marine
Corps, the officer appointed by the
, Navy Department to see that the men
i of the fleet received the entertainment
, their valor won. The message read:
'"Facilities ottered for interest and
entertainment of men on the fleet are
considered excellent. An officer of my
staff will be especially detailed to co
ordinate with the bureau's liaison of?
ficer on arrival in New York.
"MAYO, Commander in chief, At?
lantic Fleet, U. S. N."
Will Be Nothing Compulsory
Then came from the Navy Depart
j ment in Washington a request that no
plans be made that woula force any
sailor or marine to do anything that
might have the air of routine, or the
compulsion of official orders, about it.
The official attitude is that the "lid
shall be remeved" during the fleet's
stay here.
The seven war work organizations
that are cooperating with Major Coyle
were augmented yesterday by thc
American Red Cross. The committee
representing these bodies yesterday
issued the daily programme they have
formulated for the men of the fleet.
lt is replete with dances, parties, out
iiifrs and sports.
The combined organizations have
among them sleeping facilities for
2fi,000 men each night, which is more
than will be needed. They claim a
personnel greater than the number of
sailors nnd marines to be entertained.
Every man and woman on the rosters
of the seven organizations is included
in the reception activities of the fleet.
Will Be No Parade
Tt. was definitely announced from the
Navy Department that there will be no
parade while the fleet is here. The
purpose ot' the visit is to give the men
their lirst real liberty party since the
fatigue of war.
^ "Parades are all right," said Major
Coyle yesterday, "but the Navy De?
partment, desiring to give the boys a
complete rest. from their heavy work,
is anxious that nothing of an official
nature be staged while the fleet is in
the river. Liberty parties in England,
France and Ireland were limited to
two hours. The men have hardly had
a chance to limber their sea leg3 on
solid ground since the warships
steamed to the war zone two years ago.
"Every man that can be spared will
be sent to the city daily to aecept the
hospitality that is being arranged for.
Only the men absolutely necessary to
take care of the ships overnight will
remain aboard each evening."

Pershing Opposes
Army Training for
Boys, Says Elkns
Commission Not Pacifist,
but Objects to Divided
Authority in the Schools,
His Reply to Wingate
Abram I. Elkus, chairman of the Re
construction Commission of the State
of New York, yesterday defended that
body's stand on the question of mili?
tary training. His statement was a
reply to an interview in yesterday's
Tribune, in which General George W.
Wingate, president of the Public
Schools Athletic League, called the re?
port of the commission a fatal blow to
the cause of universal training in the
United States.
Mr. Elkus said the commission ob?
jected only to the training of youths
of sixteen, seventeen and eighteen un?
der military auspiees, a stand in which,
he declared, it waa upheld by General
Pershing and other military experts.
He said the commission favored the
training for those over eighteen, and
even for younger boys, so long as the
school authorities were not compellel
to divide their supervisory power with
the military.
Pacifist Attitude Denied
Mr. Elkus denied the attitude of the
commission was pacitistic or anything
but wholly American. He continued:
"The unfavorable report on military
training,is not based on the question
of whether the military training com?
mission has had a sufficient chance or
not. It is based on the underlying
principle that a divided authority in
education of boys of these ages causes
interference with school work, clashes
in time schedules and a multiplicity of
red tape.
"If military training has value for d_*
velopment of physieal, mental and mor
al characteristics that make for the
highest type of citizenship, there i3
nothing in the report that precludes its
further use under the single authority
of the State Department of Education.
Drill a Camp Feature
"The best type of boys' camps do not
use military discipline. The kind of
camp advocated by the report contem
plates the use of many feature* of mil?
itary drill or discipline which will aid
in the development of the object to be
attained; viz., the all-round physieal
training of the boys and the democratic
attitude so essential to our citizenship.
"To say the commisison is encourag
ing pacifism or any other ism ia
ridiculous. Universal military training
of young men over eighteen is not in
any way affected by this rccommenda
tion."
GirFs Screams Halt Court

will be resumed to-day in General Ses
sions.
"It's all a lie!" the young woman
screamed. "I am the only one to blame.
