The American residents of London
and various British organizations have
Pr pared an extensive program of en-
tertalnment for the American party,
but it is doubtful If much of 1T will be
carried out as Gen. Pershing, before
beng informed of the plans, expressed
desire that there be a minimum of
anything in the nature of a celebra-
tiun of Il social character. The en-
tire contingent devoted itself to the
hardest lind of work of an organizing
nature throughout the journey and The
whole atmosphere of the cont agent is
ths: of l)en embarking on a grave en-
terprise with the deepest realization
OF it's difficulties and demands.

on the various committees of enter
