ly, until recently major general in
charge of military aeronautics, prob
ably will be demanded by members of
the Senate military affairs committee.

has been to the effect that arbitrary
action on the part of Gen. March, chief

of the medal to Col. Kenly.
The report has reached members of
Congress that attempts are being made
to discipline officers who appeared and
testified before investigating commit

was one of those who did not hesitate
to criticise where he thought criticism
due.

has been given the Costa Rican revo-
lutionaries.
