OPPOSES
HAYS BILLS FOR
REFORM OF ARMY
Secretary Finds 1t Bad
Policy to Increase En-
listment Term.

Secretary Of War stimson has made
public letter addressed to Chairman
James Hay Of the House Military Com
mittee, entering protests against the
passage OF what are known as the Hay
bills for the reform Of the army.
First OF all the Secretary finds that
the proposal OF Chairman Hay to in
crease the, term of enlistment for pri-
vate from three to Ave years is bad
policy and will result in the loss OF
thousands of recruits; then he opposes
the consolidation OF the Adjutant Gem
erals Department with the general
stan. He says that to merge these en-
tirely different departments of the
army would be unfortunate and would
reverse the policy on which the General
Staff IL based.
The Secretary opposes the proposition
to make any officer OF the army per-
manent fixture and prefers to have all
Of them subject to detail. He also
protests against the abolition OF the
post Of Chief OF Coast Artillery as well
as against the proposal to abolish the
post of chief OF militia division.
Secretary Stimson approves of the bill
to consolidate the supply corps and will
lend his influence to this measure.

WASHINGTON AHEAD
Of new YORK CITY IN
ANTtCRUELTY
Report of President Hutchins
Shows That Much Was Ac-
complished During Year.

Washington has done more to prevent
cruelty to animals during the last year
than has New York. according ito the
statement OF President Walter Etilson
Hutchins last night to members OF the
Washington Humane Society. which met
at the Arlington Hotel for its forty
third annual session
I'VE have ten agents In the street
who receive salaries and secretary,
who must be paid. No one else draws a
cent. These ten agents should be in
creased to twenty-five. We are not do
ing 10 per cent Of what we should"
President Hutchins said It was well
known that Washington was market
for worn-out horses, and, while the soci-
ETY. could take up such animals when
they were put in service, that there
was no way to prevent a sale.
Money Needed.
The society needs money. but It also
needs motor ambulances, q free animal
dispensary, and shelter for small ami
mails. Looked upon as model for the
cities OF the country. Washington
should not lag behind In humane work"
The Rev. DR.. wallace Radcliffe, of
the New York Avenue Presbyterian
Church, advocated the initiation Of ac-
tion to stop the killing OF birds to OBJ
tain their feathers for millinery pur-
poses. He condemned q practice that
permitted women to indirectly rob
birds of their life and beauty.

in the days of Rome and now was pre-
sented by Gen. John G. Black, presi-
dent Of the Civil Service Commission.

KILLER is SET FREE,
Coroner's Jury Decides Cook Shot
Turner in Self Defense.

Following the decision last night of
a coFoner's jury, which decided that
Arthur Cook was justified in the shoot
. ing of Charles Turner, it is probable
that the state will make 10 effort to
prosecute the North side neSro. In the
opinion of the jury, Cook killed Turner
in self-defense.
The hearing occupied a part of two
days. Late Wednesday afternoon, the
evidence was submitted to the jury.
After few minutes elaboration, the
jury returned a verdict which stated
that Turner came to his death as the
result of a gunshot wound inflicted at
the hands of Arthur Cook. and that
Cook acted in self-defense- when he
took Turner's life
Turner was killed at a dance in
North Topeka last Saturday night. He
had attacked several people with a
knife and succeeded in starting a gen
eral rough house. Then Cook appeared
on the scene. He is a rather frail, sick
