C If Caesar Rodney Had Not Made His Heroic Ride, Americans Might Not Now Be Celebrating the Fourth of July! By ELMO SCOTT WATSON (Released by Western Newspaper Union.) THANKS to the poets, the story of the rides of Paul Revere and Gen. Phil Sheridan are an imperishable imperish-able part of American tradition. tradi-tion. But, so far, no bard has sung of the heroic ride of Caesar Rodneyat least, none has given us a poem about it so familiar as those of Henry W. Longfellow and Thomas Buchanan Read. Yet here is truly an epic theme the story of how death rode in the saddle with this heroic horseman and how history might have been changed if he had failed in his mission. The events leading up to Caesar Rodney's ride were these: On June 7, 1776, a resolution introduced by Richard Henry Lee of Virginia in the Continental congress, con-gress, declaring that "these United Unit-ed Colonies are, and of right ought to be, free and independent independ-ent States," was accepted in a committee of the whole by representatives repre-sentatives of seven of the coloniesa colo-niesa bare majority of one. If this revolutionary step of severing sever-ing the ties which bound the colonies col-onies to the Mother Country was to be taken successfully, there must be greater unanimity among them. So the leaders in the move for independence set about to win over those who hesitated to take such a radical step. Jonathan D. Sargent hurried across the Delaware river into New Jersey where delegates were being chosen and succeeded in securing the election of men pledged to independence. A few days later the Maryland convention, conven-tion, which had previously been opposed to the idea of declaring for independence, reversed its position po-sition and adopted resolutions instructing in-structing its delegates to vote for the Lee resolution. Nert South Carolina was won over, as was Pennsylvania, although its delegation dele-gation was split on the issue. The delegates from New York, though personally in favor of independence, independ-ence, could not vote for it until receiving approval from the convention con-vention in their colony, though it was certain that such approval would be forthcoming. A Divided Delegation. There now remained only the vote of Delaware to make the decision of the Thirteen Colonies unanimous. She had three delegates dele-gates to the congress Thomas McKean, George Read and Caesar Cae-sar Rodney. McKean was one of the most outspoken advocates of independence but Read, influenced influ-enced by John Dickinson of Pennsylvania, Penn-sylvania, was opposed to declaring declar-ing for freedom at this time. This left the deciding vote in the Delaware Del-aware delegation to Rodney, who was also speaker of the Delaware Dela-ware assembly and had returned to Dover to preside over it. On July 1 the Lee resolution came up for discussion and all during that day and far into the next the momentous decision was the subject of a hot debate. Late in the afternoon of July 2 it was put to a vote. Eleven of the colonies, col-onies, by the votes of the majority ma-jority of their delegates, cast their ballots in favor of independ ence, ine votes oi iwo ew York and Delaware were not recorded. re-corded. If such a decisive step were to be taken, it must be unanimous, unani-mous, else the results might be disastrous. Meanwhile a committee com-mittee headed by Thomas Jefferson Jeffer-son was drafting a Declaration of Independence, and Thomas McKean was making an important impor-tant decision. He knew that Rodney Rod-ney was als6 in favor of independence inde-pendence and if he were brought to Philadelphia he could break the deadlock in the vote of the Delaware delegation. ' At his own expense he hired a messenger and sent him speeding to Dover to explain the situation to Rodney and urge him to come to Philadelphia at once. It was nearly midnight of July 1 when the messenger started for Dover 80 miles away and he did not arrive there until 24 hours later. Rodney was at his home a few miles further on, so it was not until the early morning hours of July 3 that he was aroused from sleep and given McKean's message. mes-sage. At daybreak, mounted on the strongest horse in his stable, Rodney was on his way to Philadelphia. Phila-delphia. For years Rodney had suffered with a cancer on his face. Before Be-fore the opening of the Revolution Revolu-tion he had been urged to go to England in search of relief from the dread disease, but his sense of duty to bis colony in the troubled trou-bled times ahead kept him in America. In a letter to his sis ter he described his case as tru- ly dangerous, and what will be the event God only knows; I still S s S The only surviving letter, dated July 4, 1776, written by any signer of the Declaration of Independence and referring to that document. docu-ment. It is Caesar Rodney's and it refers only briefly to bis heroic ride. live in hopes and still retain my usual spirits." Rodney's Modest Story. So it took courage of the highest high-est kind for him to set out upon the hasty 80-mile trip to Philadelphia, Phila-delphia, because the exertions of such a journey might easily cause his death. Apparently he never thought of that his only thought was that his presence was needed need-ed in the Continental Congress where a momentous decision was about to be made. In the letter (reproduced above) which he wrote after completing his journey, jour-ney, he makes httle mention of the hardships of that journey. It says: Philad.a July the 4th. 1776 Sir: In have inclosed you summons directed di-rected to the Sheriff to (Call) Summon the Members for our County to meet In Assembly at Newcastle on the 22d. day of this Instant which I hope you will have put into his hands as soon as possible possi-ble after it comes to Yours I arrived in Congress tho Detained by Thunder and Rain; time enough to give my Voice in the matter of Independence It is now determined by the Thirteen United Colonies Col-onies without even one dissenting Colony Col-ony We have now got through with the whole of the Declaration, and ordered it to be printed so that you will soon have the pleasure of seeing it Hand bills of it will be printed, and sent to the Armies, Cities, County Towns etc. to be published or rather proclaimed in form. Don't neglect to attend closely and carefully to my Harvest and You'U oblige Yours CAESAR RODNEY Being "detained by Thunder and Rain" was probably the least of his difficulties, for we know by contemporary accounts that the weather was extremely hot and the necessity for haste must have taken a heavy toll of the energies of both man and beast. Where Rodney stopped for the rest and food that was absolutely necessary for both is unknown but since he did not arrive in Philadelphia until the morning of July 4, it is evident that he must have paused somewhere along the way for a brief breathing spell for his horse and a few mo ments of relaxation irom ine saddle sad-dle for himself. Meanwhile Jefferson, John Adams Ad-ams and Benjamin Franklin had drafted the Declaration of Inde pendence and the final vote on it was set for the morning of July 4. It i3 not difficult to imagine the anxiety of McKean as the hour for the congress to assemble iirpw near. Would Koaney ar rive in time to support him in casting Delaware's vote for inde- npndence? He hopea mai ne f "7 O. ' ' . .... would but he could not be sure. According to one account, McKean Mc-Kean was striding up and down the brick walk outside Independence Independ-ence hall after the other members of the congress had filed in when he saw a horseman speeding along v the dusty street toward him. A moment later this rider drew up in front of the hall and, as he swung wearily down from the saddle, McKean recognized the dust-covered, grimy-faced man as Caesar Rodney. There was a brief handclasp, then the two men entered the hall, Rodney still "booted and spurred and travel-stained." A few minutes later the roll call on the adoption of the Declara tion of Independence began. It started with New Hampshire, the most northerly of the colonies, and proceeded through Massachusetts, Massa-chusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, Connecti-cut, (New York was passed for the time being, although her delegates dele-gates were favorable) to Pennsylvania. Penn-sylvania. The Crucial Vote. So far the vote of these colo nies has been for adoption of the Declaration. The Pennsylvania delegation is divided but by a vote of three to two her voice speaks for independence. Then comes the crucial vote of Dela ware. As was expected McKean votes m favor of adoption of the Declaration Dec-laration and Read votes against. When Rodney's name is called, some of the delegates turn in sur priseit i3 the first intimation they have of his return. They, know how important his vote is, so they hang on his words. Those words made such an indelible im pression upon some of them, among them McKean, that they remembered them for years aft erwards. He said: "As I believe the voice of my constituents and of all sensible and honest men is in favor of independence, my own judgment concurs with them, I vote for in dependence." So Caesar Rodney cast the de ciding vote for Delaware and Delaware's vote was an all-im portant one. The rest was a foregone fore-gone conclusion. Delegates from the remainder of the colonies also voted for the charter of liberty and thus the Declaration of In dependence was adopted. So Cae sar Rodney's heroic ride had not been in vain. Had he not made it, July 4 might not have been the important date that it is in the history of the United States and of the whole world! But his fame does not rest en tirely upon this one act. Eleven years earlier he had been a mem ber of the Stamp Act congress which met in New York to protest pro-test against the acts of parliament parlia-ment which were to lead eventu ally to the Revolution. Rodney was among those who urged the appointment of George Washington as commander-in- chief of the Continental army and he became one of Washington's most valued friends. He entered the war as a brigadier-general of the Delaware militia, was with Washington at the Battle of Tren- ton and despite the ravages of cancer, served throughout the Revolution. He came out of the war a major-general and lived to see the country win the freedom free-dom for which he had cast his historic vote. He died at Poplar Grove. Delaware. June 29. 1784, General HUGH S. Johnson Jour:. Washington, D. C. TRAINING CCC BOYS It is timid nonsense to propose, by law, "non-combatant" military training for the CCC boys. What is ion-combatant military service? It Is a contradiction in terms like talking about a two-legged quadruped quadru-ped or a ime-bladed pair of shears. A man may, as has been suggested, suggest-ed, serve in the army as a cook, a truck driver or an oxy-acetylene welder and many such will be needed. need-ed. But he it a soldier just the same and is not recognized, at international in-ternational or military law, as a non-combatant This is just monkey-business with words. This column has long opposed drafting CCC boys as such by any device. They are poor. Whatever form of military service we adopt must demand absolutely equal sacrifice sac-rifice regardless of wealth or poverty, pov-erty, race or religion, color or politics. poli-tics. But giving military training is not requiring military service. In times like these it is a great boon to any boy who may later be called upon, under our democratic form of selective se-lective drafting, to do military service. serv-ice. In the first place, it may save his life or limbs. It is the "half-baked "half-baked recruit" who is slaughtered like sheep and who, as Kipling sang, "wonders because he is frequent de ceased, ere 'e't fit for to serve as a soldier." In the second place, if our bun gling, blundering foreign and defense de-fense policies do get us into this bloody mess and require the raising of mass armies, the boy who has had sound military training before conscription starts will have a very great advantage over his fellows in advancement, pay and comforts. My only boy has had about all the military instruction the army gives to men his age and if I had another son who had none now, I would consider the best thing I could do for him would be to see to It that he got an intensive course in military training as promptly as it could be arranged. It Is true that modern war re quires specialists in almost every branch of huiaan effort but basic military training is necessary In ad dition to any special civilian skill a boy may have. General Marshall is reported to have said that the army prefers to give these boys only "non-combat ant" training because It Is "inconvenient" "incon-venient" to give combatant training in CCC camps. I hesitate to dls agree with the chief of staff because be-cause we are fortunate to have In him at this critical hour one of the best of the world's professional sol diers. It is even hard for me to believe that he said that because it is wrong to the point of absurdity. But General Marshall Is an offi cial of this administration and ut terly loyal. The whole of admlnis tration policy on defense has been politically timid and never frank. Up to the point of training by bat talions, the CCC camps and organ! zation are almost Ideal if the army is prepared to furnish enough in structors, and if It Isn't so prepared there isn't any use talking about training anybody. Training now Is multiple insur ance against harm and danger, to the boy himself, to men later draft ed raw from the streets that he may have to lead and train and, above all, to the nation which, if war comes, will find its very existence depending upon the degree of skill. strength and toughness of the men in its armed forces. CCC boys thus trained will be subject to conscription to exactly degree than any other young men of their age and condition as to health and dependency of others UDon them. Let's not hobble our selves with any such nonsensical legal restrictions. RECRUITING ERRORS Part of the war department plans fnr a malor military effort is a whoop-la recruiting drive for volun teers to "bridge the gap of time until the system for compulsory selective service can be created and started working." ' Before we got through with it, ev ery boy who preferred to wait for the scientific selective service sys tem would be called a he:l and every impulsive youngster who was fifed, kettle-drummed and orated into signing up would be a hero. The process would put a shadow on the former class and not get tne best material in the latter. Modern mechanized war requires careful selection. An excellent, if extreme example. nf the change is in the German para chute troops. Each man is dropped down strictly on his own behind enemy lines to be a little army in himself. Soldiers in mechanized troops have to be automotive and radio mechanics, expert gunners and drivers and sometimes adept with explosives, gases and defenses against both. They must know far more of the principles of military art than any non-commissioned soldier ever had to know before. Steel ARairmt Steal Dressed In a suit of teel armor. William F.
