Pershing, who a little over six:years otly left Washington for again has slipped quietly from the capital for a sojourn redch soil. His passage over the Atlantic has been engaged aboard the liner Leviathan, sailing today from New York, and it will be three months before he returns again from the land where his leadership helped to write history during the great war, Neither the general’'s name nor that of his sister, Mrs. D, M. Butler, of Nebraska, who accompanies him, ap- | pears on the Leviathan's list of pas- ! sengers; but only in respect to the ack of publicity surrounding his de- parture does his going today resemble that of 1917, This time he is bound for a holiday. It will be, so far as the brother and sister are able to con- trol events in France, just a sight- seeing tour of their own with the pub- He not invited. The plan for the trip was laid All the agencies of the government have been invoked that { mighteaid in helping to prevent pub- licity or to induce the I'rench author- ities to allow the general and Mrs, Butler to come and go in France as inconspicuously as any other Ameri- can brother and sister might do as tourists there. Strict secrecy has been maintained about the general's office | in Washington. Only a handful of the officers closest to him know of the impending journey. Mrs. Butler | avoided any mention of her plans when she bade her friends in Lincoln Reservations on the Levia- tran were made through the ship- ping board with the greatest secrecy as to who would use the tickets, Iiven the Irench embassy, necessarily aware of the plan, was in the plot to keep silence in its despatches until ter the Leviathan was at sca. But it was no use. Somewhere the plan leaked out and the embarrassed lence of officlals of the war depart- ment when questioned ahous it could | ment was the emphatic and authori- not prevent knowledge gelting about the general and his sister were going for a private pligrimage to France as| means of rest and relaxation before he takes up mext aspring the last months of his active efforts to make | the military policy of the United | States reflect in measures of national preparedness the lessons he learned 1n| France. Is Wholly Unofficial. The only officlal statement about the trip obtainable at the war depart- it was wholly/| to the tative assertion that without signlficance except travellers themselves, ’ It was recalled today that when Pershing sailed for France in 1917 to lay the groundwork in France for the greatest American army every or- ganized, there was a miscue in the ge- crecy as to his departure, ‘While Pershing and his staff boarded the Baltic as civilians and without disclo- sure of their names, cases of official papers they nceded arrvived at the dock with the glaring legend, “Gen- eral Pershing's staff, 8. 8. Baltic,” stenciled on them in four inch letter- ing. One reserve officer, called at the last moment to join the staff, arrived in uniform. He was almost mobbed in the haste of getting him out of sight, General Pevshing had hoped origi- nally to spend the coming six months rambling abroad, but can be gone cnly three months, By that time he must come back to complete the task to which he has devoted himself since the war, the perfection of businesslike methods of insuring national security. INVESTIGATE OUTBREAK Lockport, N. Y. Officials Investigating COlash With Klansmen Lockport, N. Y., Oct. 20.—District Attdrney Burt A, Duquette today was continuing his investigation into Fri- day morning’s clash between county authorities and men believed to be Ku Klux Klansmen at Cambria Center. Shots were exchanged between a party of deputies and policemen led by Sheriff Benjamin Gould and members of a purported klan initiation party. “If circumstances warrant, I will take the case before the grand jury for full investigation,” the district attor- ney said. William Lozier and Charles Turver were at liberty today on $500 bail each.
