GUARDS SUFFERED
TO AID REGULARS
Br Review Leased Wirel

WASHINGTON. Feb. 1--Reitsrat-
ing in the house today charges that
national guard officers were removed
from their office after practically con-
tinuous fighting service to make room
for regulars, Representative Gallivan
Of Massachusetts, democrat, read
letter signed by 30 wounded officers,
saying investigation would prove that
medical officers had been ordered to
report as unfit, men who might re-
place the regulars assigned for duty.
The letter also asserted that nation
al guard officers and reserves were
sent into the thick OF the fighting
while the regular army men were held
back. Asked by Representative Ham
ilton Of Michigan who was responsible
for the removal Of the national guard
officers after months Of service on
the front line, Mr.. Gallivan said it
was due TO the LeaYenwOrth clique,
by its influence with the high COM
mand." The high command" he ex-
planned, was the general staff in Wash

Referring 20 Major General Leonard
Wood, the letter read by the Massa-
chusetts representative said:
when General Wood visited the
front he was treated more like q
German spy than an officer OF the
United States We have the word OF
several colonels that know him well
for this. He was ordered back from
his visit here without being allowed
to visit the Italian front, or returning
