WOOD MAY SERVE
IN WAR COUNCILS
Hints at Washington That General
Will Remain in France in
Conspicuous Capacity.
WAsurNoToN IAN RI


Signs are already apparent that the
criticisms by Senator Chamberlain and
other members of the Senate Committee
on Military Affairs of lack of centraliza-
ton In tho military administration are
producing results.
While President Wilson has declared
his opposition to the effort to create War
Cabinet and it is apparent that officials
are against the creation of Directorship
OF Munitions, events taken in conncc-
ton with previous developments, make
it clear that the faults in the War De-
partment system to which the Military
Committee called attention are To be
corrected without legislative action, ex-
ccpt in some slight particulars.
One of the hopeful signs of a Difference
on the administration 5 part to the views
of meu in Congress and out, that the best
minds available should be employed TO
help the United States win the war, is
found in hint conveyed yesterday that
Major Cen Leonard Wood is to have a
prominent part in the super-war councils
in Europe
It was inferred from what was said that
Gen. Wood. who is now in France, would
be consulted by representatives of the
government with reference to the best
means Of employing the American forces
abroad
Cen Wood was sent to France in
line with the purpose Of the War Depart
ment to have every commander Of divi-
sion spend period Of inspection and
observation in the theatre OF war, and
then return to his command in the United
States. The guarded statement was
made yesterday that the administration
contemplated keeping Gen. Wood in
Europe and giving him 4 prominent
place in military councils.
