comment on the generals remarks
at luncheon opening a British club
for American soldiers, on the ground
that his permanent promotion from
colonel to major general is pending
before that group. Gen. Patton's
present rank is temporary.

LONDON, April 26.-Lt. Gen.
George S. Patton, jr., declared yes
terday that ii was the destiny OF
the United States, SBritain and
Russia to rule the world and added
that for that reason they should
"see more Of each other"
Speaking at a luncheon opening a
British club for American soldiers,
Gen. Patton said:
Undoubtedly it is our destiny to
rule the world-we Americans, the
British and, of course, the Russians.
Therefore, we should see mere OF
each other"
An earlier version of the speech
published by the British Press AS
sociation had quoted Gen. Patton
as referring only to the United
States and Britain, but the general
said this was incorrect.
Gen. Patton praised the efforts
being made to welcome American
soldiers to Britain and added face
tiouSly:
"The only welcoming I've done fol
some time has been welcoming Ger
mans and Italians into hell. I've
done quite a lot in that direction
and have got about 177,000 there"
"I agree with Mr.. Bernard Shaw,
the general said, that British ant
American peoples are separated by
common language. Tie idea o
these clubs could not be better
because undoubtedly it is our destin,
to rule the worldF and the more W
see of each other the better.
