WOUNDED MEN
HEAR PERSH|NG
General Is Guest of Honor
AT Walter Reed
Gathering.

Gratitude at having the opportunity
of saying a word to the men who Of
fered themselves for the supreme sac
rifice and have carried evidence Of it
back home" was expressed last night
by Gen. Pershing, speaking to wound :
ed men at Walter Reed Hospital.
Pennsylvania night at the hospital
was the occasion for an informal
gathering, at which Gen. Pershing
and Senator and Mrs. Knox Of Penn
sylvania were guests of honor.
Senator Knox's speech decried the
fact that America had taken no other
means than a verbal expression OF
gratitude to Gen Pershing. He cited
the lavish gifts of lands and titles be-
slowed upon the leaders of English
and French armies.
Gen. Pershing was introduced by
Senator Knox as your comrade, com
panion and general" and in opening
his talk the leader Of the American
armies safuted the wounded as Fellow
soldiers"
The program was under the direc-
ton of Mrs. H. r Rea- field director
of the Department Of Military Relief.
Potomac Division OF the American
Red Cross, whose work was highly
commended By Gen Poxshtng.
