Has Arrived For Business and Has Not the Time to
Afford For Celebrations of Social Kind.

London, June S.--llcadcd by Maj.
Gen John }. Pcrshing, its command
er, the first representatives Of the
American army that is 10 enter the
European war discmbarked at a
British port after an uncvcnlful roy-
age of ten days on board the White
Star liner Baltic. The party was re-
ccivcd With full military honors, and
immediately cntraincd for London,
where 1t arrived this afternoon and
was welcomed b. the Earl of Derby,
the minister Of war: Viscount French,
commander OF the British home
forces, and the American officials.
Gen Pcrshing's personal staff and
the members Of the general staff who
will perform the preliminary work
for the first fighting force number
iiftyscvcn officers and are accompa-
MED by about fifty privatcs and a
LARGE civilian clerical force.
The American residents of London
and various IBritish Oreiaizations
have prepared an extensive program
OF entertainment for the American
party, but ii is doubtful If much Of it
will be carried out, as Gen. Pcrshing
before being informed of the plans,
expressed a desire that there be q
minimum Of anything in the nature
Of a celebration Of a social character
The entire contingent devoted itself
to the hardest kind OF work of an
organizing nature throughout the
journey.
Among those taking an active part
on the various committees Of enter
tainment for the American contingent
are Mrs. Joh Astor and Mrs., White
law Reid.
The Americans we're surprised t(

learn OF the elaborate arrangements
for their entertainment made by their
countrymen and also Of the plans to
facilitate their work. The privates in
the contingent will be the guests of
the British amy in the barracks in
the historic Tower Of London.
At their hotel the American Of
fees met many British and Cana
dian officers. Everywhere from the
port Of arrival to London the Ameri-
can and British officers scrutinizcd
each other with professional interest,
each sizing up the other.
There is no atmosphere Of an eX-
cursion iaunt about the trip of the
American contingent, however. 1t
has been work, and work Of the hard

after she had left her pier at an
American port.

possible.
At the point of Decentralization Gen
, Pcrshing's party was welcomed by

MORE SUBSCRIPTIONS NEEDED
Laurens' Apportonment of Liberty Loan Subscriptions
Only About Half Made Up More Sub
sCriptions Needed.

Only about half of Laurcns' appor-
tionmcnt of Liberty Loan Bonds have
been sold" said DR.. II. *. Aiken.
chairman Of the local committee yes
tcrday. Laurens is expected to sub
scribe at least $4,000 TO the bond
issue and less than $4,000 has been
subscribed. Since the last report in
The Advertiser, when $4,000 was re-
ported, the total has been brought up
to S23,i0o, the Enterprise National
Bank subscribing $4,000 and the
Farmers National Bank $1,000. Indi-
vidual subscriptions have made up the
rest.
Dr.. Aiken stated that he hoped to
see the full amount OF Laurens' APP
portionmcnt subscribed before noon
Friday, when the sale of bonds will
close. The amount is a comparatively
small one, he said, compared to the
issues at stake and the subscriptions
are safe investments though hardly to
be considered as profitable as invest
mcntS so in this section. The cam
paign will be pushed up until the last
minute and il any are overlooked by

All the dispatches speak of import- ant activities that are continuing. The British advanced troops. are to be hard upon the heels of the Germans and more than keeping pace with their retreat.
 The writers evidently are expecting the speedy occupation by the British of the important town of Bapaume, al- though they stop short of actually pre- dieting it with certainty. With luck we shall be there soon," says one corre- spondent. "Bapaume now is seriously d- rectly threatened, says another.
 The mist that obscured the country earlier in the day cleared during the evening. The weather became altogether fine and there was an increase in the activity of the British troops. One of the correspondents with the forces in operation said:
 We are on the eve of important de- velopments and the enemy Is not likely to escape the pressure of them without severe damage. even if he escapes some thing like disaster
 Another correspondent wires that there should be important news available Wednesday.

 ID GERARD AS HE
 TRAVELS UP COAST

Savannah, March 13-James w. Ger ard, former American ambassador to Ger many, passed through here tonight with Mrs. Gerard and a party of Americans returning from Berlin to Washington The ambassadors trip through Florida and Georgia cities today was marked by a series of patriotic demonstrations and noisy ovations in his honor.
 At Daytona early in the day winter tourists crowded about the train and a band played America" The same dem- onstration was repeated at St. Angus tine, where Chauncey M. Depew, an old acauaintance, was one of those to greet MT. Gerard. Again at Jacksonville and at many smaller cities along the route the ambassadors party was heartily welcomed As nightfall came on, how ever, fewer persons were at the stations and only a few greeted the party here.
 MT. Gerard left here tonight going through Charlston and up the Atlantic coast He will reach Washington Wednesday afternoon. He said today at Jacksonville that if he got permission at Washington he would brake his long silence on conditions in Germany. He first saw American soil at key West Monday, having come from Spain by way of Havana.

STEEL CORPORATION LAWYERS COMPLETE
 ARGUMENT IN SUIT

Washington. March 13.-Arguments for
 the defense in the government dissoiu-
 tion suit against the United States Steel
 corporation were concluded today in the
 supreme court and Solicitor General Davis began the final plea for the de- partment of justice He will conclude tomorrow.
 Denying monopolistic intent. effect, or promise by the corporation, C. A. Sev- erance of St. Paul declared in closing for the defense that it Ifs a blessing that there is in this country such an organization, so strong and so efficient that it can go out and capture the mar
 kets of the world"
 Solicitor General Davis said that the possible use of the corporations potential
 power was more important to consider than it's past conduct.
 Earlier in the day a petition asking dis
 missal of the individual charges against John D. Rockefeller and John D. Rocke- feller, Jr was presented by their counsel, George Wood Murray. He argued that the Rockefellers were specifically ab- solved by the lower court. took no part in forming the corporation and were named merely because the senior Rocke- feller sold to the corporation after it was organized.
