Brig. Gen. Kuhn
May Be Chosen
AS Chief of Staff
Head of Army War College
Is Probable Successor to
Gen. Hugh E. Scott

WASHINGTON, Aug. 13.-There is
much speculation in army circles over
the probable successor to General
Hugh l.. Scott as chief of staff upon
his retirement for age on September
22. General Tasker II. Bliss, who has
been acting chief Of staff during the
absence of General Scott in Russia, re-
tires for age on December 81, and it
is possible that during the interim
from September % TO December 81
General Bliss may be chief of staff.
Under the law IL is permissible for
the President 10 continue as chief of
staff an officer who has reached the re-
tirement age Of sixty-four years. but
there is neither sentiment fsvoring
the retention Of either General Scott
or General Bliss nor opinion that the
President will continue either at the
military head of the War Department.
General Scott is universally regard
ed as a most amiable man, but tenn
peramentally untitled for the task Of
directing the fighting America must do
TO win the war with Germany. Cen
eral Bliss is known to be one of the
ablest men in the army, but is thought
to be too old to adapt himself TO mod
ern warfare. II is thought that a
younger man will be selected, and the
consensus of opinion points to a briga-
der general, who would have to be
jumped over the heads of a number of
major generals.
There is a strong belief in some
we'll informed quarters that Brigadier
General Joseph f. Kuhn, president of
the War College, who is especially well
fitted for chief of staff, will be select
ed by the President. He already holds
highly important post. His duties
require that he study every problem
of army administration. all policies,
such as command, organization, move
ment of troops which have to be han

THAT has been our daily food as
purveyed by the newsmongers. There

for the Germans. They were being
beaten and almost annihilated on

And, now, 10 and behold All Of
the victories, all of the prisoners and
all of the killed and wounded have
gone for naught. Not only have the
Allies accomplished nothing. but we
are in immediate danger in this coun,
try. The German soldiers may all
sprout wings overnight and ny
across the three thousand miles OF
water and establish a Hindenburg
line from Chesapeake Bay to Lake
Champlain. That is the new song
that is being sung by these honest
purveyors of news.
Quick about it, then. Everybody
volunteer. Everybody forget about
what the Constitution says about in
voluntary servitude' and become
conscript. And, most important OF all,
EVERYBODY BUY LIBERTY BONDS,

lsh his line right through the middle

thus prevent our industrial masters
in New York from continuing the

plotting those of US who happen TO

maybe. Mr. Hindenburg will be so
nasty as to run a separate line in

Mexican Border
Is Open to Spies
Discovery of German Wire
less Plants Renews Talk
of Guarding Secrets

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1S.-Publica-
ton this morning of the discovery OF
two German wireless plants in Mexico
ore at Champion. Campeche, in the
hills near the mouth of the Champion
River, and the other on Lobos Island
has renewed discussion of how TO safe
guard American military secrets and
prevent the forwarding TO Germany Of
information with regard TO ship sail
lngs, troop movements and other de-
tails which would be of enormous
value to her feet of submarines.
There have been numerous assur-
anceS from Mexico that there were no
wireless plants in that country which
were sending information TO Germany.
At the time The Tribune was calling
the attention of the Administration TO
the ease with which information was
being obtained, or could be obtained,
by German spies in New York and
elsewhere, and transmitted by wire TO
a point just this side of the Mexican
border, and then transmitted by mes
senger or mail over the border TO a
wireless, a high official of the Navy
Department declared positively that
there were no plants in Mexico which
could send information to Germany.
This official would not permit the use
Of his name at the time, so il cannot
be mentioned now.
Since that time there have been
many restrictions on the easy methods
by which the spies could forward their
information. Cable censorship to all
neutral countries has been imposed.
But the easy method of sending a mes
sage to a German controlled wireless
plant in Mexico seems still wide open.
Mexican officers apparently have given
the lie to the complscency with which
this situation was regarded by Ameri-
can officials.

Liars" He Says of Editors
Who Accuse Him of Jeop-
ardizing Workers Rights
War Policy Approved
Barondess Denounces Efforts
to Split Labor Movement as
Work of Pro-Germans

Samuel Gompers carried the fight on
those who would use the labor move
ment as q cloak for German propa-
ganda into the East Side last night
At a meeting in Beekman Hall of a
committee of one hundred representa-
tive citizens of the district resolutions
identical with the declaration of prin-
ciples of the American Alliance for
Labor and Democracy were adopted
and it was voted to inaugurate an &C
tive campaign for the thorough Ameri-
canization Of the labor movement.
The meeting in a way was the an
swer 10 Jacob Psnken and others of
the Peoples Council and its subsidiary,
the Workmen's Council, who have
claimed that the East Side is against
prosecuting the war with Germany and
against Mr. Gompers because of his eff
forts to prevent clashes between labor
and capital during the war.
To this meeting Henry Slobodin,
state chairman of the Socialist party,
q
ciples of the alliance and pledging his
aid. The Rev. Stephen S. Wise, of the
Free Synagogue, sent a similar mes
sage.
Editors Attend Meeting
Among those present at the meeting
were Hugh Frayne, Of the War Indus
tries Board; Joseph Barondess, John
Spargo. William Edlin, editor of The
Jewish Day; Isaac Councilman, editor
of the "Warheit"; William B. Lean.
editor Of 1.-The Jewish World" of Phil
adelphia; DR.. Grosdslsky and Chester

York Call"
In opening the meeting Mr.. Com
pers denounced as liars those editors
of foreign Language papers who had
accused him of having agreed that la
Dor should surrender the right TO
strike during the war and to the
abandonment of labor standards.
Those charges" said he, ARE un-
true, and the men who make them
know that they are untrue. The rlght
TO strike is one that never Will be
abandoned"
After explaining the work of the
committee on labor OF the Council OF
National Defence of which he is chair
man, Mr.. Gompers spoke a word for
Russia.
Recalls Americas Struggle
Those who may be inclined to criti-
else Russia in this struggle said he,
"should turn back the pages of Ameri-
can history to the early days and note
that the American fathers in their
efforts for freedom did not have easy
sailing. They triumphed and so will
the freemen Of Russia. Russia is doing
its best and will come out on top
Joseph Barondess denounced the
efforts to split the labor movement as
the work of German propagandists IN
a malicious effort TO prevent the sue
cess of the nation in prosecuting the
war John s lrgo also spoke.
The resolution adopted without oppo-
sition read as follows:
at is the sense of this conference
that il is the duty of all the people o.
the United States, without regard TO
