Army Officers to
Get Field Commands
Under a New Plan
Reorganization Along Broad Lines
Under Consideration by War
Department.

WASHINGTON, March IA reorganiza-
ton of the army along broad lines is under
consideration by the War department.
The central idea of the new plan. which
Is yet i'm the formative stage, contemplates
the assembling of several brigadcs OF
troops in various parts of the country and
giving as many general officers ~ possible
actual field commands.
1t is the desire 10 decrease the office
work OF officers of command rank and at
tach them directly to the troops in the
worked out, and before 1t is put in opera
tion must receive the approval Of the
president
Major General Arthur Murray, who was
promoted to the rank of major general, to-
day will be attached for the time being
to the office of chief-of-staff of the army
taking Major General Carter's place as
assistant 70 the chief-of-staff while Gen
eral Carter is in the south commanding
'the maneuver division" Later when
General Carter has served his tour OF duty
at San Antonio, General Murray probably
will be made commander of the "maneuver
division"
As a permanent assignment II has been
the intention Of the War department to
appoint General Murray commander OF the
Department of the Lakes, with headquar-
ters at Chicago, succeeding General
Hodges. who retired yesterday. This may
be changed under the proposed scheme of
reorganization.

Arc Expected,

An unknown man who played dramatic
part in Postmaster Thomas efforts TO
cover up his political activities is now
being sought diligently by Secretary Moss
ami Inspector IAndIahd. who are invesu-
gating the charges against the postmaster.
A veil OF mystery was drawn over the in
vestgation Tuesday morning when Messrs.
Moss and Lindand donned their overcoats
and slipped quietly out Of the building.
They remained away during the greater
part of the day and up to the present time
they have not been able to locate the un-
known actor In the Thomas drama
The search for the ubiquitous actor, fol-
lowing so closely upon Assistant Postmas-
ter Woodard's testimony, unburdened at
the hearing Monday afternoon, brings the
inquiry into unusual prominence. And more
interesting facts are promised for the inn
mediate future. Some OF these will likely
be contributed by Judge sutton, who will
take the stand late this afternoon
The civil service secretary and postoffice
Inspector who are making the investigation
are taking up the work I'm systematic
manner. Each phase of the postoffice
muddle Is being handled separately, and
already practically all witnesses have been
called After all phases are well in hand
witnesses will be recalled and the entire
story of Postmaster Thomas activities will
be put in narrative form to be presented
to the officials at Washington.
