I WOUNDED ASSURED OF SEATS AT PARADE Shell Shock Heroes to Sco 27th in IIopo That They Mny Benefit. MAl'OR ORDERS HOLIDAY Standing Military Organization of Some Sort Needed, O'Ryan Snys. A seat In tho grand stand will be given to every wounded soldier who wishes to see thej Twenty-seventh Division parade on March 25, or he will be placed In some advantageous position along tho line of march, Qrover Whalen, secretary to Mayor Itylan, said yesterday, following a meeting ot the chairmen of sub-committees of the Mayor's Com-mltteo of Welcome. The plan Is to care first for the soldiers, and If there are any tickets left they will be distributed among- the Aldermen, some of whom have been accused of "hogging" tickets.

Members of the board said yesterday at their meeting that they would rather give up their claims on tickets than have a single wounded soldier do with out a seat to watch his comrades march Distribution of tickets will begin IO' day. An experiment that may do' a great deal of good and probably can do any harm, army surgeons have said, will be made with shell shock victims at the parade, air. announced. It Is thought that many who are In a state of mental suspension will be brought back to themselves, probably their minds permanently restored, by watch ing the marching men. General llolldar Declared, The day of the parade will be an official holiday by proclamation of the Mayor.

A resolution to this effect was passed by the Board of Aldermen yesterday. It said that each city employee was to be given a holiday on full pay. The board passed the resolution unanimously. The American Ited Cross Unit attached to the Twenty-seventh DIvlFlon has been Invited to march In the parade. Oen.

O'Ryan extended the Invitation yesterday In a letter to Capt. Stephen N. Hobo, who was the. lied Cross representative with the division. The division was reminded by the Mirror Company that each soldier may have a box of candy In commemoration of his homecoming.

I wo must have some sort of a stand. Ing military orgnnlratlon." f5en. John P. O'ltyan. commander of the Twenty-seventh, Raid yesterday.

He would not venturo to say what form it should take, national or State. However, ho believes strongly In the development and fostei-Ing of sprit de corps. "Regimental tradition, company pride and personal prldo In belonging to a command of celebrated achievements has done much, very much, toward winning wars. The British have It the Germans had It. Hut the German military system aside from this was wrong.

It was the German soldier who wrecked Germany. Had It not been for him thero would not have been a war," Gen. O'Ryan continued. "It's all very well to say that 'Right will triumph over might' and In this case It did." he said In explaining the necessity ror military organization "But do you know why right triumphed over might? Because we hail the 'greater might on the right side and It triumphed over the lesser might," he asked and an. swered.

"Now wo should take the best of the several armies of the world nnd leave the rest alone. After organizing our military system we should by nil means cultivate esprit de corps." Karller In the afternoon delegation of thirty officers from the Ninth Coast Artillery called Informally upon len. O'Ryan at tho Twenty-seventh's hcud-quarters In tho Biltmoro Hotel. Among the other callers was Major-Gen. James D.

Mcl.achlan, military attache of the British Embassy, who talked with Oen. O'Ryan nnd members of his stafT. While every one Is exerting efforts to contribute to the pleasure and comfort of the Twenty-seventh's men, the War Community Scrvlco Unit No. 5 has opened a barber shop and Invited the Twenty-Beventh's heroes to come In nnd be barbered. The shop Is manned by barbers who went over the top In France, some of whom did especially good work with the bayonet.

They have shaved 1,400 men to dato the Community Service llteraturo announces. Borough President Rlegclmann and rome olTlcers of the Twenty-seventh visited Camp Mills yesterday to arrange for the Brooklyn men to go to Brooklyn for the parade there on March 24.
