Washington. March 3o.-The Kan

cided To urge the president TO appoint
General Funston a brigadier general
In the regular army as reward for

members of the delegation do not con
slider that a brigadier generalship will

Funston exploit and point to General
MacArthur's recommendation that he
he appointed To that grade as com
pleto demonstration of the great serv-
ice he has rendered 10 the govern
mcnt. They are exceedingly warm in
their praise of General Macarthur for
giving the entire credit Of the expedi-
ton To Funston In view of his rec
nmmendation. they do not believe the
president will hesitate to bestow upon
the gallant kansan the star he has
won.
They would not be surprised. how
ever. If considerable opposition to
giving FrrA,on brigadier general
ship should develop AT the war depart
ment There is no disposition in the
regular este lishment TO belittle Gen
aral Funston's exploit. especially since
the receipt of General MacArthur's
dispatch giving full credit to Funston,
but there naturally would be opposi-
tion there to jumping a volunteer Of
fcer 80 years of age into the grade OF
.hrigadier general and the Kansas del
egation recognizes this fact.
