APPOINTMENT PUT OFF
NO BOARD OF VISITORS TO

take place until the close of the next
years work at the academy. This has
resulted from the tardy legislation re-
stricting such appointments 10 members
of the Senate and House commute s on
military affairs, the board appointed
under the old law having met usual
only to find that it was without official
standing.
Another complication has arisen be-
cause of the change in law which will
not permit the payment of the expenses
of the members of the old board. except
by authority of special act. 1t is eX-
pected that this will he done by means
Of provision to be inserted in the de-
ficiency bill next December.
When the next board meets the chief
difference in its personnel will be the lack
of army officers OF high rank. Under the
new law only members of the military af-
fairs committees of both houses will have
places on the board. the reason for that
change being the belief that ii would per-
NIT Congress to be kept in closer touch
with the affairs of the academy than in

am not here to open headquarters-the

Mr.. Cannon declared that in his opinion
it was not the proper thing for a candi-

that sort of trouble for the boys"
When told that Frank H. Hitchcock

When asked If he was in the race to

snapped: Stick? Why. man, l can't
do anything else but stick. The state of
Illinois is behind me, and that is enough
to make man do almost anything.
Stick? Well should say So
