~ made of.the delay and: the ceremony \ BRSHING WILL ABANDON TRIP INTO ENGLAND General Not to Lay Congression- al Medal on British Sol- dier’s Grave CAUSE OF SPECULATION |; Report That British Foreign Office’s Silence is Respon- | sible for Decision Paris, Oct. 11—(By the Associated Press)—General Pershing will not gio to London to lay the congressional medal on the tomb of the British Un- | known Soldier in Westminster Abbey, | and if the ceremony is held another | American officer will be designated to represent the Unieed States, ! This announcement came last night | fnom:a most authoritative source, i , Lack of time available ‘for the trip | between now and October. 20, when General Pershing sails for home, isi the oflicial explanation for his decis- ion to abandon his visit to England. It-.is learned, however, that failure of | the British war office either to: fix a| date for the ceremony or, until late | yesterday to give any explanation for: not replying to repeated inquiries | from the American Embassy officials | is the chief reason for General Per- | shing’s decision. | General Pershing came to Europe} for the purpose of laying the Con- gressional Medal on the tombs of the | French and British unknown soldiers the Washington government so in-| formed the British government early { in August, and again when he sgaile1. $ can be learned, no answer | 5 vedi either communication, | which fasked that a date be fixe for | the ceremony and that the Generai be informed. i Further Inquiries Made i Since his arrival in Paris, further | inquiries have been made at the Brit- | ish foreign office, through the medium | of the American embassies in Lon- | don and Paris. One of these inquiries | developed {he explanation that, such eeremonies usually took a Jong | time to arrange, | The specially trained’ battalion | from the American forces on the/| (Rhine, which acted as a guard of hon- | ov at the Paris ceremony and was to} have proceeded to‘london, returned to; Coblenz this afternoon by. special | train after having been held a week in | Paris awaiting word from the British | foreign office. | It is known that American (officials | in Paris, as well-as General Pershing | and his party, have been mystified by | the silence of the British government, and the matter has caused much em- | barrassment to the general. He has; ‘Deen. besieged with invitations to din: | hers and official functions, and-the un-\ certainty of the London arrangements made it difficult to reply to many of these. Some of the military men have advanced, the explanation. ,that the rule not permitting British officers and men to accept foreign. decorations | might be the cause of the situation. They; further suggested’ that the Brit- ish might want,'to- arrange to confer a decoration similar in) importance on America’s “Unknown Soldier,” before | accepting the congressional medal. Officials Concerned ‘On the othet hand, it is pointed out that the fact that the medal was con-| ferred by an act of congress in behalf oi the American people should- place the decoration. in a special category | where ordinary rules and precedents | would not apply. | American « officials in Paris are| much concerned over the matter and fears aré expressed that an unfriendly | interpretation might be placed on the | incident unless;a full explanation: is held as soon as it can be.arranged.
