It was Washington's tirst great pa
rade of th<* war and the crowds show
ered all their pent-up patriotism on
these sun-bronzed veterans, the first
to go to France. More than half a
million people saw the parade.
It was conceived and carried out as
the nation’s tribute not alone to the
veteran lighting men who marched, hut
to the whole great army the nation
created to make certain the utter de
feat of Germany.
Marching in mass formation and
equipped with all the guns, gas-throw
ers and other death-dealing devices
of the front line service, the First divi
sion, fresh home from France, moved
along the broad avenue, it living tide
of lighting manhood that filled the
street, from curb to curb.
Above each solid block of Infantry
rose the grim line of bayonets, the
bine steel glinting dully as It caught
the light. Farther hack came long
lines of field gans, French “75’5.” to
which French • Ulcers have said France
owes her salvation and, after all the
trains and wagons had rumbled by,
came n battalion of tanks, streaked
and yellowed with paint to conceal
them from enemy eyes, hut now clank
ing behind the troops in noisy response
to the cheers that greeted them.
Up the avenue at the head of the di
vision rode M i,). Gen. Edward F Mc-
Olaneh, commanding, and with him
rode two former commanders of the di
vision the (irst to go and the last of the
divisions to come home. They were
MaJ. Gen. William L. Slehert, who took
It to France, and Lieut. Gen. Robert L.
Ballard, who took It Into action and
surrendered command only to take n
higher tiost.
The Sixteenth Infantry, veterans of
the hitter fighting at fantlgny, where
France learned In what fashion Amer
ica could and would tight and breathed
again after months of strain, led the
way.
At various points In the divisional
line and before the wallowing tanks
hammered and clattered In an uproar
lug conclusion In the , five hour spec
tacle, all manner of additional units,
not part of the division Itself, were In
serted.

A!R RECORD IS SET
ROHLFS SCORES ALTITUDE MARK
OF 34,610 FEET,
Believed to Be New Figure—Achieved
in 78 Minutes—Machine Balks
for Time.
Mlneola, N. Y., Sept. 20. —Anew
world’s altitude record Is believed to
have been made here when Roland
Itohlfa, test pilot for the Curtiss Air
plane company, soared 34,010 feet
above sea level, according to the olll
clal barograph. In 78 minutes. As
Roosevelt field, his starting point, is
110 feet above sea level, itohlfs ac
tually climbed 34,500 feet, according
to the barograph. Ills altimeter reg
istered 34,400 feet.
Itohlfs on landing was greeted by
his wife who run to his side and
said:
“What did you do?”
“I think I have done It (Ids time,
till right,” he replied, and then after
a few minutes lie said; “I believe all
official and unofficial records have
been shattered. I am satisfied this
machine can’t be made to go any
higher with Its present equipment. 1
am through with high flying for the
present and I am glad to he able to
he down here to say It.
“At a height of about 31,000 feet
my machine dropped about six hun
dred feet. The machine turned over
on its ear and kept going from side
to side with an oscillating movement.
It was terrible. After working with
the mechanism for some time, I final
ly put on high speed and found the
machine righted Itself and began to
climb again,
“I began to use the oxygen tanks
about 20,000 feet up. If the oxygen
had failed for n second 1 would have
been done for.
“I reached the greatest altitude
after climbing 78 minutes, and main
tained that altitude for about 20 min
utes.” Nothing unusual happened to
him, he said, except that his teeth
ached.
“Another peculiar thing that I no
ticed this time was a sort of nervous
twitching on rny body,” ho added,
“where I have scars as a result of
burns I received several years ago.
These began to pull and twitch and it
lasted for quite a while.”

I BULGARIA GIVEN
PEACE TREATY
Pact Presented to Mission at the
French Foreign Office
in Paris.
HAVE 25 DAYS TO CONSIDER
Thrace Excised, to Be Left Under Rule
of Allies Until Decision Is Made—
Defeated Country to Have
Seaport.
I’nrls, Sept. 22.—The treaty of pence
between the allied and associated pow
ers and Bulgaria was presented to the
Bulgarian mission at the French for
eign office.
After the delegates had assembled
Georges Cletnenceau, president of the
peace conference, spoke briefly In open
ing tin session. He was followed by
General Theodoroflf, head of the Bul
garian mission.
M, Theodoroff spoke for 15 minutes,
pleading that the Bulgarian people
were not responsible for the war. hut
that the Bulgarian government had
thrown the country Into the struggle.
He realized, however, he said, that the
people must share the responsibility.
“They are willing to do so,” he said, j
"but they feel that In no way have j
they committed such a crime ns will j
compel them to accept servitude.”
King Ferdinand and Vasell Undo- !
sluvoff, Bulgarian foreign minister In
1014, were blamed for Bulgaria’s on- |
try into the war by M. Theodoroff. He
said the Bulgarian people did not np- j
prove of the German alliance, which
lie declared, “came to them as a
cataclysm,” hut they realized they
must accept part of the respon
sibility.
“We have committed faults,” he said,
“and we shall hear their consequences
within the hounds of equity, but there
is a punishment no crime can Justify,
and that is servitude.”
Representatives of all the 27 gov
ernments participating in the confer
ence. Including Koumanln, were pres
ent. Frank L. Polk, head of the United
States delegation, sat on M. Clemen- j
ceau’s right and Sir Eye Crowe, the ■
new British plenipotentiary to the j
peace conference, sat on the presl- s
dent’s left.
The Bulgarian delegates, M. Theo- j
doroff. M. GanelT, M. Sakessof, M.!
Starnbullwsky and M. Ilarzoff, entered
after the other delegates, who rose!
when the enemy representatives np-j
peared. The Bulgarians were courte- 1
ously confident In their demeanor.
Twenty-five days are allowed Hul
garia to present observations on the
treaty terms.
Many delays have marked consider
ation of the Bulgarian treaty which
was presented to the representatives
of that government today. Work on
the part was begun May 20, but the
negotiations with Germany and Aus
tria prevented the pence conference
from completing the couventloft until
late this week.
Although the United Slates was not
at war at any time with Bulgaria, It
will he a signatory to the treaty for
the purpose of adding Its Influence In
securing observance by Bulgaria of
the covenant of (he League of Nations,
which Is an integral part of the pact.
The United States, however, will not

mission charged with the enforcement
of the financial clauses of the
treaty.
Disposition of Thrace was a subject
on which the peace conference was
forced to pass the most time In the
preparation of the treaty. As It de
velops, I his question has not been final
ly adjusted, but Thrace Is to he ex
cised from Bulgarian territory and left
under (he supervision of the principal
allied and associated powers, which
later will announce their decision ,ss
In the future status of the country. A
plan by which the port of Dedengatch,
on the Aegean sea, would he given to
Bulgaria with a corridor leading to It
similar to that provided for In the
German treaty, by which Poland was
given access to Danzig, on the Baltic,
has been considered, hut It has never
been formally adopted. Bulgaria, un
der the treaty terms, however, Is as
sured an economic outlet to the
Aegean.

JOHNSON QUITS
WILSK TRAIL:
Returns to Washington to Lead
Anti-League Fight in
Senate.
SPEAKS TWICE IN MINNESOTA 1
Cuts Tour at Duluth and Starts for
Capital Regardless of Telegrams
From Lodge and Knox to
Continue Trip.
Duluth, Minn., Sept. 20.—Senator
Hiram Johnson announced at the con
clusion of his speech here that he j
would not complete his speaking en
gagements- in the West, but would re
turn to Washington to lead the tight
in iln> senate for the adoption of his
amendment to the League of Nations
covenant relative to the voting power
of the United States and England. He
made the decision regardless of tele
grams from Senator Lodge and Sena
tor Knox urging him to continue to the
coast and assuring Idm they would
champion his amendment.
Duluth, Minn., Sept. 20.—As Sena
tor Hiram Johnson’s speaking cam
paign against unreserved ratification
of the League of Nations covenant
approaches its termination, it be
comes evident that the Californian
has definitely sounded the sentiment
of the middle West on the subject of
ratification.
in his two addressee in Minne
sota—in the mnVning at St. Paul be
fore file state legislature sitting in
Joint session and at night here be
fore an audience that packed the
local armory—the attitude of those
who heard him was positive, and ap
parently representative of that of the
people of the state. And the mem
bers of the Minnesota house and sen-
ate and the men and women who
mode up his audience at Duluth,
again and again answered his attacks
upon the league and the peace treaty
liy getting on their feet and shriek
ing approbation of his arguments.
The senator believes that the situ
ation as he seems to have found It In
Minnesota is similar to that in every
other state he has visited. He is
convinced, he says, that the people
here are against flat acceptance of
the covenant and against it by large
majority, although they were openly
for the league two months ago.
Change of Atv'tude.
“Tills change of attitude,” he said
here, “has been brought about not by
me or by my oratory but just be
cause the real truth about the league
is at last becoming a matter of com
mon understanding."
A reflection of the shift of opinion
in fids state was seen during the gen
eral assembly address. Several
months ago the Minnesota state leg
islature passed a resolution indorsing
the league and pledging support to ttie
president's program for unamended
acceptance of the document. During
the speecli all but several members
of the assembly jumped to their feet
upon four occasions and shouted and
stamped their feet as Mr. Johnson
called for allegiance to ids antl
leatrue doctrine, which, he proclaimed,
as "just American.”
in the morning he spoke to the rep
resentatives of the people of the state.
In the evening he addressed the people
directly. Like the morning address,
the night speech was received with In
tense enthusiasm. The armory, which
normally seats 4,(XX) persons, contained
a crowd estimated at 5,000.
“We are the only solvent, going na
tional concern,” he said, “and yet we
have formed a partnership with bank
rupt nations. And these bankrupts, af
ter our late experience in meddling
and muddling in European and Asiatic
politics, have come secretly to detest
us and to despise us.”
Could compose Better League.
Several times in his speeches, he has
said he would have composed a League
of Nations covenant that would not
be an affront to America and would
represent the people of the world, rath
er than the rulers. Llong this line ho
suggested that a “w r ar referendum”
would be an ideal element in such a
proposed document, provided that ev
ery signatory agreed to it.
“Give (he women of the world, who
bear the greatest burdens of a war, op
portunity to decide whether they will
send their sons and husbands against
the sons and husbands of others,” he
suggested, “but this present league
does not consider the people of the
world nor the mothers and husbands
of the soldiers of the generation, nor
the next. This league goes further
from the people, rather than closer to
them; It is a league of rulers, sitting
In secret, formulating war plans In or
der to maintain their territorial grabs
and to reach out for further gains.”
A Use for Kings.
In Brittany the storekeepers ob
serve a curious custom of putting a
tiny porcelain slipper In their cakes.
A few American soldiers In Rennes
bought one of these cakes, and while
eating It one of the Americans bit the
slipper.
“What does this mean?” he asked
of the young mademoiselle.
“Monsieur, you are the king."
“The king? What docs the king
do?”
“Oh. monsieur, the king pays for
the cake.”—Boston Post.
Grouchy Response.
“Why do you keep that sign hang
ing on the wall, This is my busy
day’?”
“To keep people from asking idle
questions. But I’m going to take it
down. You have convinced me that it
won't work.”
