WASHINGTON. D. c., March p
lspeciaL)-The AIger retirement story is
again in circulation. It has a little Dill
ferent form from what it has heretofore
held. In effect. IT IS that Senators Han
ma and EIkins are importuning the Pres
iIent to get ria Of his Secretary Of War.
They are said 70 hold that Ayers rec

about "embalmed beer and other army
scandals. The President is represented
as being perfectly willing 10 make me
Michigan man the sacrifice the senators
demand but it is said that Alger will not
retire. and there's the rub. The object
now is TO discover some way to let him
down easy. TO grease the way for his re-
tremeut is said so Do the object. The
objection Of firing him ont bodily lies
I'm tbe fact that DE knows too much. He
could make il very uncomfortable for
the administration if drastic means We're
used TO eject him from his Office. He
would be able truthfully TO say that he
was not responsible for the appointment
~ incompelcnts TO important positions in
the staff departments. He would also be
able to say that many OF the contracts
that have caused scandal We're let as the
result of hints from the White House,
and the Influences that now seek his re-
t.rement. That IS why there IS no lkoli-
hood of his being requested 10 step down
