The birthday celebration, nearly two years after his death, marks the end of a year which he would have had every reason to regard as the happiest since the armi his. ad- mirers claim.

Although “Washington officials de- clined to make any announcement re- garding General Pershing’s return to the United States, there were evi- dences that his departure from South America would in no way be a diplo- matic retreat from an international situation which has become embar- rassing. Steps will be taken to continue so far as possible the work he has been doing as head of the Tacna-Arica plebisy commission. Except for minor troubles, the former commander of the American world war army had enjoyed un- usually good health up to the time of his departure last July for South America. It is assumed the general will make the homeward voyage on the crusier Denver. There is no doubt among General Pershing’s intimates that the stress and worry of the Arica negotiations have contributed greately to the fail- ure of health. 7 Reports reaching Washington indi- cate that he has been suffering se- verely for weeks because of inabilit to receive proper dental attention.
