Washington, May 31.-A plea
that the American people be not
swerved by personal ambition of
political expediency," from fulfill
ing obligations "to less fortunate
peoples who confidently look to us
for help marked the Memorial
day address of General John j.
Pershing, delivered today in the
amphitheater at Arlington national
cemetery, where the formal eX.
ercises in honor of the day CEN
tered.
ITO the memory of our beloved
dead" he said, I'VE owe duty to
complete the task they sanctified.
The white crosses in France, stand
ing as symbols of brotherhood in
common purpose against militar-
ism and oppression, eloquently cry
out to us.
THE appeal that rings in our
hearts must not be in vain. Rather
let us go forward to the
wellbeing of our fellows as the
vital aim, reawaken the fine spirit
which made possible our war
achievements. Doing our full duty
as patriotic citizens, may we meet
our obligations and give help and
encouragement to less fortunate
peoples who confidently look to us
for help.
MAY This day Of solemn media
ton bear fruit to justify the sacri-
fices of those who died"
The general also pleaded for
adequate preparedness.
''In this solemn presence" he
said, "and on this day, my coun-
trymen, | pray you take such rea-
sonable measures In times of peace
that never again shall it fall to the
lot of commander to suffer the
anguish of soul that comes when
of necessity our gallant young man
hood must unjustly bear the burden
of our thoughtlessnes and be sent
to battle without adequate prepar-
alton"
A tribute to the allied dead also
was paid by the American COM
mander, ''to the allied thousands
struggle gIoriously fell in defense
of their homes and firesides and
who lie yonder across the seas
asleep in quiet places beside our
sons--a mighty host united in
death as they were in life"
