NEW YORK, Nov. 14.—Plans are already afoot in this city to give Gen- eral Pershing a welcome on his ar- ‘rival home that will live in the annals of the nation. While the subject ha: been only tentatively discus: » and while nothing definite can be de- cided upon until the probable time for the return of the American com- mander is announced, it is already assured that the welcome will be a rousing affair in which the , entire country will participate. The reception awaiting General Pershing will recall the welcomes tc General Ulysses S. Grant on his re- turn from a tour of the world in 1879, to Admiral George Dewey on his return from Manila bay, in Sep- ‘tember, 1899, and to Colonel Theo- dore Roosevelt on his arrival home from his African trip. General Grant and Admiral Dewey were given greetings marked with pa- triotic enthusiasm such as belong to distinguished men whose achieve- ments were on the battlefield, while that of Colonel Roosevelt was largely a tribute from political adherents and admirers.
