WOOD TO BE PROMOTED
TO RANK OF MAJOR GENERAL
Advancement of Young Army officer
Causes Much Feeling in Army
Circles.
REPURLLC SPECIAL

REPUBLIC SPECIAL
Washington. July 10-Brigadier General
Leonard Wood is 10 be promoted to the
grade of Major General. This action has
been decided upon by the President and the
announcement will probably be made short
ly after he has conference with Secretary
Root, who intends to leave Washington for
Oyster Bay tonight, and will see the Pres
ident Saturday.
At the same time announcement will be
made Of the promotion of Major General
S. 3, NJ. Young to be Lieutenant General
upon the retirement OF Lieutenant General
Miles on August S. and the promotion of
Rri2adier General Samuel Sumner to be
Major General upon the retirement of
Major General George W. Davis. the Com
manding General of the Philippines, on
July %.
The fact that General Wood is to be pro-
NOTED to the rank OF Major General is cause
for much feeling in army circles. especially
among those who have long been in the
service. and who see their own advance
ment thus retarded.
General Wood is yet young man. He
was formerly a surgeon in the army. and
his promotion has been remarkably rapid
Within q few years, by the operation of the
retirement process he will he the senior
Major General of the army and will not re-
Ire until 1924. Then It is quite probable that
he may be made Lieutenant General long
before that time and hold that position for
a long term of years.
