HIGH HONOR OPEN TO FUNSTON,


May Become Commander of the En-
tire Regular Army In "A Few Years.
Washington, April 1.-Wlile opinion
in Washington relative to the promo
,tion of Gen. Funston to brigadier
generalship in the regular army is tlnc-
tured a good deal by envy, the brunt of
sentiment is that the rewardis most
just one. The president is complimented
for not waiting too long before making
the announcement, because il is
thought if Funston were to be promoted
at all there was only one thing 10 do,
and this might as well be done al once
as month later.
Criticism against the promotion cen
ters most directly upon the proposition
that Funston is likely to be in command
of the entire regular army if he lives.
In other words, he stands an excellent
chance of wearing. at no distant day.
the insignia of a lieutenant general.
The recent appointment Of officers to
be brigadier generals showed that Gen.
Leonard Wood would become senior
major general of the army in about ten
years and thus become eligible for ap-
pointment as lieutenant general com
manding the army. Should he be ap-
pointed to the head of the army he
| would continue in that position over
ten years, during which time j. Frank
