ARMY SHIFTS
CALLED POLITICS
Wilson and Baker Move
Troops to Get Votes,
Officers Say.
Prom r. rrihurs Bureau J

Washington. Sept. 1.-THE United
States army, including the tederalired
National Guard, has become entirely a
political machine in the last few
months under the WilsonBaker re-
CINE. according 20 statements made
70 The Tribune to-day by officers
Military authorities not only have sur
rendered control OF the troop move
ments. but they are nor even called
into consultation by Secretary Baker.
Until recently the General staff has
been consulted az 20 every movement
OF troops. The movements have been
directed for the mos, part BY military
cons derations. But now, officers de-
clare. Secretary Baker and the Presi-
dent order the units about TO SUIT
political eXigencies, without so much
as obtaining the opinions OF the mill
tary experts. The advice Of Funston,
Persh.ng and the General STAFF 70 with
draw from Mexico has been ignored.
As result officers Of the General
StaE have ceased 20 concern them
selves with the Pershing expedition or
the border guard
we get our news about army move
ments from the papers now, an ohcer
said.
Administration officials DO not deny
that the army and National Guard are
being used by the Presiien; 20 further
his political ends IL il pointed out
that Il the General STAFF and the bu-
reau chiefs az the War Department
are taken into the Administration
confidence as 20 the border plans they
nj light az we'll be given TO the public.
as nothing could be kept secret smong
so many.
For this reason, it is understood,
the President has decided 20 disclose
mis- hand 20 no one but Secretary Baker
and Secretary Lane. Even Secretary
Lansing is believed TO know little
about the major strategy Of the poll
ticsl camps On, as Mr.. Lansing is not
fundamentally a politician.
