Cablegrams announce that the most elaborate welcome yet given to any American Red Cross section arriving in London was that accorded the physicians and nurses of the Harvard Medical Unit which recently reached England. The welcome was in the form of a luncheon given by Sir Thomas Lipton at that gentleman's country house.

The grounds and the house were decorated with American flags, and several British army officers, among other noted guests, were in attendance. Arthur-Shirley Benn, a member of Parliament, delivered a short speech during the luncheon, in which he praised this country and its President. Major Patterson replied on behalf of the American Unit.
