Messages to the American people were sent tonight by General Persh- ing, Secretary Daniels, Secretary Lans- ing. Secretary Wilson, and Lord Read ing, the British ambassador.
 General Pershing said:
 "On this anniversary of our inde- pendence, the officers and men of the American expeditionary forces on the battle fields of France renew their pladge of fealty aud devotion to our cause and country. The resolve of our forefathers that all men and peo- ples shall be free is their resolve.
 "It is quickened by sympathy for an invaded people of kindred ideals and the war challenge of an arrogant enemy. It is fortified by the United support of the American people"
 Secretary Daniels said:
 "The American people have had a fresh baptism of the spirit of sacri- fee for liberty which enabled the men of '76 to make the declaration of inde- Dendence the decree of a powerful na- tion. They have entered this war to aid in insuring a peaceful people free dom from conquest. and they will not lay down the sword until the menace of militarism is lifted from mankind. Out of the tragedy of the war the steady light of peace guaranteed by a league of all free nations, will illum- inc the world"
