Latin America, Great Britain and France joined with the United States last night in paying tribute to the memory of the late Maj. Gen. Willlam Crawford Gorgas, former surgeon gen- eral of the United States Army and leader in the successful fight against Jellow fever, who died in London last uly. Sécretaries Baker and Daniels, Maj Gen. Peter C. Harris, Ambassador Jusserand of France, Maj. Gen. H. K. Bethell, military attache of the Brit- ish embassy: Ambassador Pezet of Peru, Minister de Cespedes of Cuba, Minister Elizalde of Ecuador, Charge d’Affaires Lefevre of Panama and Di- rector General Rowe of the Pan- American Union participated in memo- rial services in honor of Gen. Gorgas held at the Pan-American Union build- ing. - South Shares in Tribute. The services were under the auspices of the Southern Society of Washing- ton, which thereby ~honored the memory of a son of the south. Gen. Harris presided. Secretary Baker declared the former surgeon gemeral of the Army had made the building of the Panama canal possible and had “saved its con- struction from being marred by hav- ing along its banks the graves of tens of thousands of victims to the pestilence of the jungle, which for ages had imposed the sentence of death upon those who sought to join the two oceans.” Gen. Gorgas’ claim to true great- ness, Ambassador Jusserand declared, lies in the fact that he gave himself ary, 1821 IDGE COLBY, (seal) Bm@a&‘“%flv‘i‘s col By BEN G- Dl et clere.

Bethell, speaking for the country in which Gen. Gorgas died, said: “His is the glory of the savor, not the destroyer. Panama is his memorial and his monument.” Speaks for Panama. Panama as a nation paid its tribute through J. E. Lefevre, who declared that the proposed Gorgas Tropical Irstitute for Research, which may be established by the government ‘of Panama, as a tribute to the services of Gen. Gorgas, would be both “a temple to science and a shrine to the great sanitarian.” Minister de Cespedes said the memory of Gen. Gorgas is cherished by the Cuban people, and his name is revered as those of that republic's own national heroes and liberators. Minister Elizalde delivered a tribute of appreciation on behalf of Ecuador. Ambassador Pezet expressed the “gndying” gratitude of Peru for the sanitation work done that country under Gen. Gorgas' direction, declar- F !ing his death was a particularly severe loss to his nation, as the gen- eral had planned to go there to ex- tend and complete the work begun. PICKS ALCOHOL MAKERS.
