While on that duty Maj. Mac

from many states. Two such divi-

whole National Guard and typical Of
the national Unity for the war. The
suggestion strongly appealed to Sec

brought him the French cross of war
Cen Macarthur personally captured
a Bayarian colonel on that raid and
when Mr.. Baker was first In France

with the helmet of the captive as
souvenir. The Secretary subsequently
passed the helmet on to Gen. Mac
Arthur's mother. in this city, as a
token of her sons gallantry.

fighting which drove the enemy back
from the Marne, he organized and
directed the movements Of the diyi-
sion in way that brought him COM
Tnendation from his chief. Maj. Gen.

division, of a kind rarely seen. In a
personal letter to Gen. Pershing
urging that Macarthur be commis-

ment of his chief of stan moro than
to any other single cause.
Promotion to command a brigade
did come, but the first assignment to
return to Camp Meade and organize a
brigade of the new I1th Division was
strongly resisted by the young ON
Ger. He preferred to stay with his
division. or. at least, on active duty

met, when he was assigned to the
S+th Brigade OF his own division,

MACARTHUR HOME
WITH FOUR HONORS
Most Distinguished District
I Soldier Expected to Have
d. Duty in Washington.
FORMED RAINBOW DIVISION

Wearing on his breast ribbons that
out by each Of two nations for honors
because of his valor and efficient
leadership. Brig. Gen. Douglas Mac
Arthur. most distinguished of the
fighting men sent by the District to
the war, is home from France.
What his assignment is to be fol-
lowing the rehabilitation of his bri-
gade of the fighting Rainbow Divi-
sion has not been announced, but 1t
1s understood that he will return to
duty which will keep him in Wash
ington, where his home is with his
mother. Mrs. Arthur Macarthur, at the
Brighton, 2l23 California street.
As the son of Lieut.. Gen. Arthur
Macarthur. the last officer of the
Army to attain that high rank before
seemed marked from birth for ad-
vancement in the Army Military
traditions. a sympathetic understand
ing of men and the other qualities
necessary for military leadership were
his, both by inheritance and by his
boyhood experience about the Army
posts at which his father served with
distinction. Added to that were spe-
cial gifts of mind that later carried
him through West Point easily first
IN his class and among the most
brilliant students ever graduated from
that institution.
1t WAS not surprising to officers who
have been associated with Gen. Mac
Arthur that the arrival of his divi-
sion on the front lines in France was
quickly followed by tales of cool dar-
ing on his part. That was expected,
and it was no less expected that this
same trait would build up around him
from personal dash and gallantry cou-
pied with executive ability and cool
leadership in days of stress what now
amounts almost to a tradition of the
service. The reputation the young
officer has acquired has travelled far
beyond the limits of his own division,
extending to the entire Army in
France.
