 WASHINGTON. Marcn ll.-COinCl- dent with the announcement today that Major General William L.

Menoher, director or the air service These instructions take effect March 15 and thereafter the work done at other fields than the two to be selected will have to do only with storage and maintenance or equipment All aviation personnel that can be spared will be discharged March S1 and the flyers retained at tn two training fields to be kept in operation will be. so far as possible, those who desire to remain in the per manent military estaolshment
 These orders represent a new effort to keep demobilization up to schedule and get the total of discharges to the 100000 mark by the end of the pres ent month. The cancelling of General Kenly.s wartime rank and his assign ment to his own branch of the ser vice, the field artillery, in his pernIa- nent rank of colonel, was said to be in line with this policy of reduction all along the line
 General Menoher has not yet desig- mated the fields at which training for the air service is to continue and Of Geers had no suggestions to make as to his probable selections. About thirty aviation fields and centers were in operation during the war. In select ing two of these it was said that Gen eral MOnOher undoubtedly would be in- nuenced by year around weather con- ditions. This would imply the selec- tiOn of some of the southern fields.

 The council should consider the claim and decide it. and the force of public opinion. too. should be used to secure an adjustment of territories as would afford a peacabIe means of securing needed territory.
