There has been much confusion in
interpreting the regulations regarding
the wearing of insignia on the collar
Of service shirts and in order to set
at rest all discussion of the matter
the War Department has decided that
the ''U. s." will not be worn on the
collar of the shirt. The rank insignia
will be worn on the right side of the
collar and the insignia of the branch
of service will be worn on the left
side of the collar.
According to Quartermaster Gem

TUMULTY HITS

Shows Wisconsin Election
Ad Not Authorized by
Committee.

Joseph P. runuity. secretary to the
President. yesterday made public ON
clsl correspondence between himself
ane w. J. Cochran. publicity director
Of the Democratic National commit
tee. which denies the charge Of win
Hays. chairman Of the Republican
National committee, accusing the
Democratic party of "the infamous
prostitution Of all patriotic proprie-
ties" IN the Wisconsin Senatorial
election.
Mr. Tumulty, In q statement which
refutes the charge of the Republican
chairman. said:
Chairman Hays. of the Republican
National committee. in his recent let
ter to me. made reference to an ad-
vertisement which he said had ap-
peared in Wisconsin papers. and the
inference which he apparently sought
TO establish was that the Democratic
leaders at Washington. of the Demo-
cratic National committee, or some
organization within the Democratic
party. was responsible for the adver-
tisernent. The following correspond
ence Is, therefore, self-explanatory:

Mr.. Cochran's reply to the above
Is as follows:
MY dear Mr.. Tumulty:
During the greater portion OF
The time covered by the Wisconsin
Senatorial campaign I was in Chi
cago and in close touch with the
management Of the campaign for
Mr.. Davies. the Democratic candi-
date for the Senate. which was di-
reCted from State headquarters at
Milwaukee. No advertisements in
behalf Of Mr.. Davies were author
ized by me or by anyone connected
With the campaign, so far as 1
know. to be published in the news
b. pers outside Of the State Of Wis
conzin.
No such advertisement as the
Nne you quote was inserted in any
Wisconsin paper. After the eIee-
ton I was informed that a WILSON,
Sin soldier. a noncommissioned off,
DER, temporarily at Camp Grant.
setting upon his own initiative, had
inserted the advertisement you have
quoted in the Rockford Star, pub
lished at Rockford. Ill The soldier,
who was very earnest in the sup
port Of the candidacy of Mr.. Davies,
wrote this advertisement himself
and paid for II with his own money.
The Rockford Star in an editorial
on June IS revealed that the adver-
tiErment was an original compost
ton, right from a soldiers brain.
