L J ENGLAND PRESENTS SWORD TO PERSHING j 1 In Name of Men of America Who j Fought by the Side of the British the General Accepts The Gift. ; ) " S Washington, July 6.?Great Brit- ! ain does not forget those who prove j themselves its friends in the hour of ! need, Sir Auckland Geddes, British ambassador to the United States, told j Gen. Pershing today in presenting him with a (bejeweled sword as a gift of the city of London. The presenta- ] tion was made at the British embassy ' AAtMnontr ueiure a ui^uiguiducu tvmpauj. jj Commenting on the celebration today of America's independence, "wrung from an autocratic govern- j ment by the spirit of individual free- ! dom astir in many lands," Sir Auck- ] land recalled that in those days 'there I = were many on both sides of the At- I lantic who thought the action -of the 1 framers of your Constitution right." || "There is none now, I believe, on | either side of the Atlantic," he said, | "who does not think that they were 1 right. Though neither you nor we are f all of English stock the memories | of Runnymede are a possession of all f your people as they are a living mem- | ory and possession of all the British | people." Gen. Pershing accepted the sword f "in the name of the men of America 1 * ?* - r n j_ = who, witn ine men 01 ^reat xmtain \ and our other allies, comolned the I courage and' skill that brought a new 1 victory to our race and to all those \ who seek justice and liberty for man- I kind." * i| i E 'The glorious thing for this gen- f craticn of British and Americans, I who have had the privilege of battling ? together,' said Gen. Pershing, 'will \ be still,more glorious if, in harmon- \ ious cooperation, they can aid in the \ restoration of the world and guide j the future of less fortunate peoples ) into channels that will insure peace ] to future generations. "It is signficant that Anglo-Saxon I people everywhere whole-heartedly j fVio KJrfli nf Amor.

Pershing, but of all 'who trained and marched and fought" under his command. Ambassador Geddes explained that the lord mayor of London had hoped to present it to the former commander of the -American Expeditionary force when he was given the freedom of the city of London last year, but that this was not possible because of the exigencies of the war. . . . . . Workers of the arts and crafts had been so absorbed into the British machine, the ambassador said, "that not in all England could be found men to do the jeweling^ the chasing and engraving it is proper to find upon a sword such as this." i Carroll Swetenburg spent the Fourth at Hendersonville.
