Honor of Army
Officers Defended
By Department

WASHINGTON, July 25.-A for
NAL statement from the war de-
partment Wednesday announced as
entirely unfounded any differences
tending 10 involve army officers i'm
accusations of wrong doing in con-
1ection with the contracts for army
raincoats. The statement follows:
Robert J. Thorne, assistant TO
the acting quartermaster general,
after "A preliminary investigation in
regard To the raincoat inspection
scandal i'm New York states that
any suspicion of the integrity Of the
army officers is apparently without
a shred Of evidence TO substantiate
the statements. The entire situa
tion has been greatly magnified to
the extent that a grave injustice is
being done 10 the reputation of the
army officers.
1T as impossible TO meet the emer-
eency of suddenly eQuipping the
army without few sporadic in
stances of dishonesty coming to the
surface. but il is an outrage 10 have
such instances magnified into an un-
Just accusation Of army officers; but
fortunately. the integrity Of the
army officers is so well understood
by the general public that very few
people give any credence to these
unfounded accusations"

British L a Dor
Endorses Wilson
Peace I erm S

NEW YORK, July 25.-The state
ment that British labor is behind
Premier Llovd George in his recent
declaration that Germany "can have
peace tomorrow" if she will accept
Pres't Wilson'S formula for the flu
ture government OF the world, is
contained i'm "A message 10 the Amer
lean people from George NJ. Barnes,
labor representative in the British
war cabinet The message made
public through the American alli-
ance for labor and democracy, fol-
lows
Although there has been no spe-
cinc declaration by any permanent
labor leader on the subject OF the
prime ministers address 10 the
American troops on July 9Th. there
can be 10 doubt that his endorse
ment of the war aims az laid down
by Pres't Wilson has met with gen
eral approval throughout labor
ranks i'm Great Britain. The public
journals Of London and Of the prov
inces. have stated that they vel
come the emphatic words in which
the prime minister declared that
the kaiser might have peace tOmor-
row il he would but accept Pres't
Wilson's formula for the future
government of the world.
1T is generally felt that if the
allied statesmen could make as clear
TO the German people as Pres't
Wilson has made il throughout the
war. and as Mr.. Churchill did in
such striking language on indie
pendence day. that Germany's exist
euce in an organized state would
be safe i'm the hands of a league Of
nations as the existence Of Great
Britain and the United States, and
+ the war might he shortened by
months if not 10y years
Even the most extreme paciiist
1 press has nothing worse 10 say Of
the announcement of the prime
minister than that it was belated
and that had it been made last
year the opportunity of making
peace-an opportunity which exists
wholly I'm the minds of the peace ~
any price press might not have
been lost"
