On Hero's Tomb Sincerity, Simplicity Mark Anniversary of Unknown Soldier's Homecoming to A r I ington Cemetery Pershing Honors Dead America and Allies Unite in Fourth Commemoration of Truce With Germany WASHINGTON, Nov. 11 (By The As- | sociated Press.).President Harding | laid a wreath of remembrance to-day on the tomb of the unknown soldier [ at Arlington National Cemetery. It i was s»t there as a wordless greeting from the heart of America to a valor¬ ous, honored son, and commemorated the first anniversary of his home-com- inp from France. Th« simplicity and sincerity of the tribute to-day was as gripwlr.g to the fíw who saw it made as v-u* the doy long tide of emotional fervor that marked that homecoming. It set a cus¬ tom for the national observance of Armistice Day in future that will make the unknown from France the keeper of America's annual expression of pride and glory in her sons who fought in France, be they living or dead. There were many other tributes brought to the. tomb during the day. Sometimes little groups of men and women from distant cities made the journey to lay flowers on the molded stonework that holds the body of a nameless American for whom no honor has been too high; sometimes the blos- aome wen» laid thero by men moved to Individual tribute to the dead. It was thus that General Pershing's offering was placed. Pershing Unable to Com« The man who commanded this hum¬ ble sleeper and the ranks of his com¬ rades in France had hoped to go him- péli and alone to cany to the tomb his tribute to the fallen. But he was called elsewhere to talk with patriotic men on living issues In the nation's life and reluctantly assigned his aide to go, after all others had come and gone with their flowers, and place his offering on the tomb. . A mere handful of spectators and a little detachment of armed men, made up of soldiers, sailors and marines, representing the three fighting serv¬ ices of the nation, were at hand when the President appeared with Secretary Weeks and Secretary Denby. Cavalry had escorted the Presidential party from the White House, but had turned aside before the tomb was reached. There was no word spoken on the ter¬ raced sweep where the tomb lies ex¬ cept the commands that moved the rifles of the guard of honor to salute. The President seemed to feel a deep significance in the moment, as though he sensed the solemn approval of the hundred millions of his countrymen in what he < Id in their name. He placed the great wreath against the stone¬ work of the tomb, then stepped back, to pause a moment looking down on the plain block of masonry that covers a plain soldier chosen to typify t'Ae greatest among the nation's heroes. President Salutes Dead The hush on the terrace Was almost breathless and every eye Was fixed on the still figure of the President stand¬ ing with bared head, bent us though '.n »every. Slowly, almost as.though it were unconsciously, the President raised his hfend in miltary salute to 'he dead, b.i'S shoulders straightening. Then he turned away and a moment later WM speeding back to busy affairs in W Wellington, behind the trotting cav- There are thousands of other war dead from France Bleeping among the' quiet hills of Arlington.

And while the nation paid its simple tribute to all those who sleep beneath the newer stones to-day in the honors accorded at tho tomb of the unknown, sorrowing relatives did not forget that armistice day is above all the Jay of the men of the America;», army in France and their bnitliers in arms at home who stood ready to join the ranks overseas. the ¡lay passed the)o blossomed «among the newer gravestones flowers of every hue, rivalling the splendor of autumnal coloring in the woods that frame the field of the dead.

He waa Georges Clemenceau, France's war-time Premier, on his way to carry out a long-cherished dream.that of visiting the United States for the first time since his youth and doing his ut¬ most to bring complete understanding and sympathy between that country and France. Although the departure of "The Tiger" was unrecognised officially by either the French or American govern¬ ments, he is looked upon as one of the most important figure« ever to leave the shore» of Franc«. "What a wonderful otd man he is," waB the universa] comment of those gathered at the pier. Besides his valet, Albert, he is accompanied, as he characteristically remarked, only by hia hat and cane.

"Well, you decide who looks older, Clemenceau appealed to the corre spondent, who, of course, politely de clined to decide. Then /»inert said: "I'm sixty-twr but not even Georges la the oldest 1 the family. It is one t)f our sistert and there are live of us living." Califs All Women Alike A woman correspondent asked Clem enceau for an interview on America women, and here is what he said: "What, are American women so dii feront? At my age all women are th same."

"Why not become a physician ? can teach you medicine In half an hou but journalism is too complicated fo anybody," "I would like to sink all your Joui nalists, except myself, under this shi but it would do no good, I know.

Longuet sent the following wireless message to Clemenceau, who is on board the Paris, bound for this country:' "Ifou are coming here to demon¬ strate to the American public* tho so-called virtues of the Treaty of Versailles, in the drawing up of which you played an important role. "I was the first in tho French Parliament to oppose its pro¬ visions. An influential part of the American press suggests that we debate its provisions in public. "As I believe that tho majority of our own countrymen to-day condemn the treaty, I cordially invite you to discuss it on the public forum with me in America, the time and place to suit our mutual convenience." waiting woman correspondent, he said: "Well, you can write that I said this about American women: 'It is fifty- seven years since I saw the American woman: then al lhad lovely blue eyes, all had sweet smiles and all were charming. I trust I shall find that the new gener&uon.their daughters and granddaughters.havo the same, looks, splendid qualities, courage and virtues.' " A moment later he said in answer to a question: "No, I am not intending to get married to one of them just now; I would makw my will first." Clemenceau said he was going to face the great United States alone, ex¬ cept for bis valet. Albert, who speaks little English, has been with Clemen¬ ceau for three years. He was decorated with the Croix de Guerre for his valor during the war. Master Kind, Ss&-* Valet * He told the correspondents that his master was "a fine, nice man, always kind to me, very healthy nnd easy to please and always good humored, ex¬ cept when annoyed by too many corre¬ spondents asking htm questions.then he can be very cross." Before the departure of the Pa:'., Clemenceau y?63 visited by Prefect Jozon, Mayor Meyer, Captain Andra Tardieu and others.

S.-British Relations Excellent, Says Geddes Never Better, Ambassador Tells Philadelphia Audience; War '"Humanized" Governments PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 11..Relations have never been better between the two great Enelish-speaking nations of the world, Sir Auckland Geddes, British Ambassador, declared to-night in ad¬ dressing the English-Speaking Union on "The English-Speaking Peoples Are the Hope of the World." The greatest thing which Britain has received from the war, said the Ambassador, has been the humaniza- tlon of the gtate. The people have always been as kindly, individually, be said, but it was only out of the ,'jorror of the "blood and mud and ¡ leaetliness which those of ub who saw can never forget" that the kindliness of the individual was tble to become the expression of the state itself. "It would be impertinent for me to speak in detail of other countries as I have spoken of my own," Sir Auck¬ land said, "but thes« moral gains which have come to the British state as such have not come to her alone. Other nations, each in its own degree, have experienced the same thing. That whole hearted throwing of yourselves in the war that was not primarily your own concern was one or the im¬ portant events that worked for the humanizing of nations." Turning to the prevention of wars, he said: "Not only must we get the nations democratized, we must get them hu¬ manized, and out of the war there has already come a great humanisation. "John Bull.the symbol of the Brit¬ ish public opinion.is always glad to meet all his friends in council, but there is, none he is gladder to see Brittania talking things over with than your Columbia."

Woodfill Burns His Mortgage in Theater Gift of &iO,irOO Presented to War Hero at Armistice Cel¬ ebration at the Palace Sergeant Samuel VVoodflll, who "mopped up" nineteen Germans dur¬ ing the war, got rid of the mortgage on he old home last night. He had betn unable to handle this enemy alone, however, although a short time ago he applied for n r'urlough in order to work as a carpenter und earn enough money to prevent his mortgage being foreclosed. It wac a gift of $10,000 from the New York public, collected through the Keith theaters, which finally routed the mortgage. The gift was presented to Sergeant Woodfiii on the stage of the Keith's Palace Theater by Philip J. McCook, Woodfill's friend and for¬ mer ranking officer. Together they burned the mortgage. This amounted to $8,000. Afterwards $5,000 in a paid- up insurance policy was presented to Selgeant Woooflll and the remainder was left with Judge McCook as ¿ha nucleus of a trust fund for the war hero's benefit. The mortgage burning was the cli¬ max of the Armistice Day program, which began with the singing of the national anthem, and a moment of silent prayer for the departed heroes of the war. Senator J. Henry Walter» presided, and General Bullard, General O'Ryan, Admiral Glennon and Father Duffy had seats of honor on the plat¬ form. General Bullard, who command¬ ed the army division in France in which Sergeant Woodrill performed his mighty deed, retold the story of that performance, and called the blushing hero to the stage, while the people cheered and waved their flags.

Lodge Gains 720 Votes in Recount in Boston Gaston'e Total Increased Only Nine; Fitzgerald Now Has 611 More Kpeclal Dieptxlch to The Tribune BOSTON, Nov. ll..The official tabu¬ lation of tho vote cast in Boston last Tuesday shows that Senator Lodge re¬ ceived 55,914 votes, 720 more than he was credited with in the press re¬ turns. The same tabulation shows John P. Fitzgerald, Democratic candi¬ date for Governor, received 107,812 vot<í3, Cil more than in the press re¬ turns. The marked discrepancy in the votes for Lodge and Fitzgerald hat, caused considerable comment in view of the fact that the ballota cast for Colonel William A. Canton, Democratic can¬ didate for the United States Senate, and those for Governor Cox show very little variation from the press returns, Canton gaining nine votes by the et- fteial tabulation and Governor Cox six. In the meantime, the Liberal Re¬ publican League Í3 out with &n offer of $100 for each case where satisfac¬ tory proof can be shown of intimida¬ tion, bribery, ballot substitution, or other fraud in connection with the voting for United States Senator. This league fought Lodge all through the campaign. The recount of the vote of the en¬ tire state for United States Senator is now under way as a result of the petitions of Gaston's backers.

Pershing Honors DeadAmerica and Allies Unite in

Fourth Commemorationof Truce With Germany

WASHINGTON, Nov. 11 (By The As-| sociated Press.).President Harding| laid a wreath of remembrance to-dayon the tomb of the unknown soldier

[ at Arlington National Cemetery. Iti was s»t there as a wordless greetingfrom the heart of America to a valor¬ous, honored son, and commemoratedthe first anniversary of his home-com-inp from France.Th« simplicity and sincerity of the

tribute to-day was as gripwlr.g to thefíw who saw it made as v-u* the doylong tide of emotional fervor thatmarked that homecoming. It set a cus¬tom for the national observance ofArmistice Day in future that will makethe unknown from France the keeperof America's annual expression of prideand glory in her sons who fought inFrance, be they living or dead.There were many other tributes

brought to the. tomb during the day.Sometimes little groups of men andwomen from distant cities made thejourney to lay flowers on the moldedstonework that holds the body of anameless American for whom no honorhas been too high; sometimes the blos-aome wen» laid thero by men moved toIndividual tribute to the dead. It wasthus that General Pershing's offeringwas placed.

Pershing Unable to Com«The man who commanded this hum¬

But he wascalled elsewhere to talk with patrioticmen on living issues In the nation'slife and reluctantly assigned his aideto go, after all others had come andgone with their flowers, and place hisoffering on the tomb. .A mere handful of spectators and a

little detachment of armed men, madeup of soldiers, sailors and marines,representing the three fighting serv¬ices of the nation, were at hand whenthe President appeared with SecretaryWeeks and Secretary Denby. Cavalryhad escorted the Presidential partyfrom the White House, but had turnedaside before the tomb was reached.There was no word spoken on the ter¬raced sweep where the tomb lies ex¬cept the commands that moved therifles of the guard of honor to salute.The President seemed to feel a deepsignificance in the moment, as thoughhe sensed the solemn approval of the

hundred millions of his countrymen inwhat he < Id in their name. He placedthe great wreath against the stone¬work of the tomb, then stepped back,to pause a moment looking down onthe plain block of masonry that coversa plain soldier chosen to typify t'Aegreatest among the nation's heroes.

President Salutes DeadThe hush on the terrace Was almost

breathless and every eye Was fixed onthe still figure of the President stand¬ing with bared head, bent us though'.n »every.

There are thousands of other wardead from France Bleeping among the'quiet hills of Arlington. Their gleam¬ing headstones flank the great amphi¬theater on one side as the dead ofolder wars flank it with the time-grayed monuments and markers onthe other. And while the nation paidits simple tribute to all those whosleep beneath the newer stones to-dayin the honors accorded at tho tombof the unknown, sorrowing relativesdid not forget that armistice day isabove all the Jay of the men of theAmerica;», army in France and theirbnitliers in arms at home who stoodready to join the ranks overseas. A»the ¡lay passed the)o blossomed «amongthe newer gravestones flowers ofevery hue, rivalling the splendor ofautumnal coloring in the woods thatframe the field of the dead.

"Ifou are coming here to demon¬strate to the American public* thoso-called virtues of the Treaty ofVersailles, in the drawing up ofwhich you played an importantrole.

"I was the first in tho FrenchParliament to oppose its pro¬visions. An influential part ofthe American press suggests thatwe debate its provisions in public."As I believe that tho majority

of our own countrymen to-daycondemn the treaty, I cordiallyinvite you to discuss it on thepublic forum with me in America,the time and place to suit ourmutual convenience."

I trust I shall find that thenew gener&uon.their daughters andgranddaughters.havo the same, looks,splendid qualities, courage andvirtues.' "

A moment later he said in answer toa question: "No, I am not intendingto get married to one of them just now;I would makw my will first."Clemenceau said he was going to

Never Better, Ambassador TellsPhiladelphia Audience; War'"Humanized" GovernmentsPHILADELPHIA, Nov. 11..Relationshave never been better between the two

great Enelish-speaking nations of theworld, Sir Auckland Geddes, BritishAmbassador, declared to-night in ad¬dressing the English-Speaking Unionon "The English-Speaking Peoples Arethe Hope of the World."The greatest thing which Britainhas received from the war, said theAmbassador, has been the humaniza-tlon of the gtate. The people havealways been as kindly, individually,be said, but it was only out of the

turns. The same tabulation showsJohn P. Fitzgerald, Democratic candi¬date for Governor, received 107,812vot<í3, Cil more than in the press re¬turns.The marked discrepancy in the votes

for Lodge and Fitzgerald hat, causedconsiderable comment in view of thefact that the ballota cast for ColonelWilliam A. Canton, Democratic can¬didate for the United States Senate,and those for Governor Cox show verylittle variation from the press returns,Canton gaining nine votes by the et-fteial tabulation and Governor Cox six.

In the meantime, the Liberal Re¬publican League Í3 out with &n offerof $100 for each case where satisfac¬tory proof can be shown of intimida¬tion, bribery, ballot substitution, orother fraud in connection with thevoting for United States Senator. Thisleague fought Lodge all through thecampaign.The recount of the vote of the en¬

tire state for United States Senatoris now under way as a result of thepetitions of Gaston's backers. In thefirst four municipalities counted-.Wil¬mington, Bedford. Holden and Han¬cock.the vote for Senator Lodgeshows no change and that for ColonelGaston shows a net gain of two.
