PRESBYTERIANS PLEDGE
 SUPPuRT TO PRESIDENT
Adopt Motion by Rising Vote and Send Telegram to Chief Execu-
 tive-Committeee Report Today

Durant, Okla, May 17.-Only enc session was held today by the Gen eral Assembly of the Southern Pres byterian church, which convened here yesterday in 58th annual session.
 At the single session in the fore noon, standing committees were named, the report of the war work council was presented and telegram adopted by a rising vote was sent to President Wilson, pledging the sup port of the church in prosecuting the wxr and commenting the nations chief executive to the God of all grace.
 The afternoon was devoted to meetings of committees which prcb- ably will report to the assembly to- morrow.
 One of the most important reports to be brought before the session will be that of the committee on union with the Presbyterian church. U. s. A, The report, it was said. will show that committees from the churches were unable to agree upon any form of union. The Southern committee fa- vored closer federation of the two bodies without organic union, while the northern committee sought the union.

Opens Red Cross War Fund Drive in Speech at New
 York Today.
HEARTILY CHEERED
 BY MAMMOTH CROWD
In Addition to Appeal fer Money He is Expected to Touch on Interi,a. tiOnal situation and State En-
 tente Allies Position.

New York. May 17.-Pres;dem Will son came to New York today to review the Red Cross parade tomorrow and to open with an address tomorrow the Red Cross drive for a $1OO,0OO, 900 war fund.
 He was met at the station by Col. and Mrs. F. NJ. House, at whose home he ond Mrs. Wilson dined tonight be- fore going to theatre. Workmen re- pairing the station surrounded the president on his arrival and heartily cheered him. They pressed forward to shake his hand he accommodated several, lowing and smilins at the others.
 Altho the time of the presidents ar rival was unannounced thousands of persons at the station and the streets leading to the hotel at which he stopped recognized him and cheered as he passed.
 President Carefully Guarded
 Later in the day crowds homeward bound from the downtown district gave him an ovation when with Col House and Mrs. Wilson he went for q ride thru the city. Great precau- tions were taken for the presidents safety. Ten secret service men ac- companied him from Washington. A squad of mounted policemen guard ed auto while large force of New York detectives mingled with the crowd.
 The president will remain here un- til Sunday or Monday, spending par of the time at his hotel and part with Col. House.
 Might Talk on Peace Move.
 There was no hint tonight as to the character of the message the president would deliver tomorrow night. Aside from appealing for funds for the Red Cross it vas believ- ed he might take occasion to touch on the International situation es- pecially in view of recent express sion in England in connection with German peace maneuvers.
 At the theatre tonight the president was given tremendous greeting. Word had been passed that he would attend the performance and the house was packed.

U. 5. TROOPS WILL REINFORCE HAIG'S
 MEN IN FLANDERS
New Troops at Front Those Recently Reviewed by
 King George.

Washington, May 17.-Evdence of success of emergency measures to bring American man power to the aid of French and British armies in repelling the German drive, came to- day with the announcement that Am erican troops had reached Flanders and gone into training behind the British lines.
 Official reports were lacking to- night, but Sec. Baker and army of- ficials accepted press advices that the first contingent of the forces to be brigaded for training and opera tion with the British army have ar- rived
 Nothing is available at the war department to indicate the identity or number of men in Flanders. It is probable, however, that the National Army regiment reviewed by King George in London is included. The in- fantry and machine gun units of the division to which that regiment was attached, probably constitute the first American force to appear in the Flanders theatre.
 The men, it is noted, are described as being Gin training" in the British zone. That is taken here to mean they are being brigaded with British div isions in reserve and will get their final seasoning quickly thru close association with veterans of Sir Dou- glas Haig's army
 Unless great emergency arises when the German assault is review ed it is not regarded as probable that American battalions will be employed cn the front lines for some time. The immediate result of greatest impor- tance probably is that the battalions of British troops displaced in these di- visions bv Americans will be avail able to fill up other British divisons to full strength or for the crganiza- tion of new British divisions as Gen. Haig deems best.

ARMY AvIATORS
 MAKE FLIGHT T0' PINE BLUFF TO-DAY
Will Arrive Some Time This Afternoon to Select
 Landing Site.

Pine Bluffians today will have an- other opportunity of seeing bird man from the Eberts' Field at Lon oke fly over the city. The landing will be made in the Packingtown ad- dition, east of the Cotton Belt shops, and it is expected that hundreds will throng to the site. The flyer is ex- peced about o'clock this afternoon.
 The Packingtown addition may be chosen as the permanent site for the landing station. It is larger and smoother than the site at Seventeenth and Ohio. originally chosen, and no trees surround it. Lieut.. Rudd, who met the Chamber of Commerce party at Lonoke Thursday, said that site was not large enough and he landed in the Barrow cotton field. This field however, cannot be obtained.
 The huge cross and pole with a flag will be placed on the Packing town site this morning to guide the flyers in alghting. The flag is to show them the direction of the wind. The selection of an adequate site is all that flinders the selection for a permanent landing station, so the cadets may practice cross-country flying. It is believed the Packington site will be satisfactory to the fly CTS.

War Industries Board May Ask President to Take
 Them Over.

Washington, May 27.-Gov operation of the steel mills of the country may be sought if the joint steel committee appointed yesterday representing the War Industries board and the American Iron and Steel in stltute fail to agree on steps to in- crease production for the government and allied needs and restric: non-war consumption.
 Chairman Baruch and his chief aid J. Leonard Replorgle director of steel supplies, and Alexander Leoge, chair man of the requirements division Of the war industries board. are said to be prepared to ask President Wilson to take drastic acton the moment they are convinced that it is the on- ly way to get increased steel product ion
 Despite the cloak of secrecy that has been thrown around activities of the War Industries board it is known that most members of the board feel that the steel shortage is real and nor merely matter of fuel and transpor- tation. They are said to Hold that drastic curtailment of lesser essential! industries is imperative
 Any move towards control will meet with determined opposition from the steel men and even certain of ficials of the war making agencies who are said to believe to a degree in "business as usual" Big interests, notably passenger auto business, al ready are preparing to fight further curtailment of their industry which the War Industries board is known to have planned.
