TO ENGLAND, SAYS READING

LONDON, Jan e.-Lord Reading,
British ambassador to the United
states. gave the following statement
to the press on the death of Colonel
Roosevelt:
The death Of Colonel Roosevelt was
received by the people Of this country
With q sense Of shock and person al
tosA He was one OF the greatest fig
ures In the world. Endowed with
Iirnttless energy, he spared neither
brain nor body to further the pros
nerfty and advance the prestige of
the America he loved so well.
There was a place in his great
heart for England The knowledge
that he was our friend caused his
achievements In politics, war, sport
and literature to be given special
prominence, and he became a familiar
figure in the minds of the people OF
our nation From the outset Of the
war he was ever the stoutest cham
pion Of the allied cause We are
grateful he vas spared to see its final

Promotion by Selection
Of Gen. Noble Over Older
|. Men Starts Senate RON

It has been some time since there
was a first-class row in the Senate
over promotion by selection, but
there Is one on now, involving the
confirmation Of Robert E. Noble as
brigadier general IN the medical
corps.
In the emergency establishment
General Noble held the rank of ma
jor general. His regular rank, how
ever, was lieutenant colonel. Now he
has been Jumped" by order of the
Secretary OF War, sanctioned by the
President. over the heads of about
40 other medical officers OF higher
rank.
Heretofore, the matter has attract
ed Httie attention save in medical
corps circles, but now 1t Is attract
ing notice through the whole army
and even beyond. The nomination is
pending in the Senate Military Ar
fairs Committee. However. q num-
Der of Senators outside the commit
tee are taking an interest in the
question Of confirmation.
Fights on confirmation IN the Sem
ate sometimes become really animal
ed. One OF the last to draw much
notice was the promotion OF the
Presidents physician. DR.. Cary T.
Grayson, to be a rear admiral in the
navy. Opposition did not avail, and
he was confirmed. due to the intiu-
ence Of the President
General Noble was ordered abroad
as assistant surgeon general. but II
appears he was not assigned to the
duties Of that official by General Per-
! shing. Col Walter K. McCsw wa,
kept on as chief surgeon Of the ex
peditionary forces. General Noble
was, according to the army gossip
marooned in southern France. In
| army circles it was supposed Col. JEFF
ferson Kean would be made brigadiei
general OF the medical corps. He was
in line for the promotion But II /;
The Washington times., 1919-01-08

said that when the recommendation
came from the surgeon general for
Kean, Assistant Secretary Of War
Keppel substituted the name OF Cen
eral Noble.
In any event, the opposition in the
Senate Is intense. Colonel Kean. a
brigadier general in the emergency
force, is a Virginian, and the Virginia
Senators are up In arms because he
has been overridden. Senator Martin
is credited with particular opposition
to General Noble. Another interesting
angle Of the matter is that General
Noble is from Alabama and ordinarily
would have the strenuous backing Of
the Alabama Senators. But Senator
Underwood and Jeff Keau," as his
old army friends call him, went to the
University Of Virginia together and
are old and warm personal friends.
Hence Senator Underwood is in some
thing Of a predicament
One of the phases Of the case is q
letter which Brig. Gen. William n.
Arthur. r"' '.'.I /, OF the medical corps,
has written Genera Noble. 1t scores
the promotion bitterly. and says at
least seventy OF the officers Jumped"
are better medical men than General
Noble can ever hope to be. The letter

Noble that the latter has sent il to
the War Department for the purpose
Of having 1t acted on.
General Noble Is generally known
here as a clever and efficient officer,
and he has many friends. But the Of
fcers over whom he has been pro-
NOTED and their friends are buzzing
about like hornets. Always there Ia
talk in divers quarters about the de-
STABILITY OF promoting army officers
by selection instead of seniority, and
there is no doubt seniority promo
tions, as a rule. are Objectionable
But when the seniority rule Is vio-
lated there is generally trouble. In
other words, promotion by selection Is
easy, excent when It is seriously tried
nut.

WAR RISKS TOBE
MADE PERMANENT

Conversion Of insurance, carried by
1000, 900 soldiers, sailors and marines
into permanent Government risk will
begin within sixty days. Col Henry
D. Lindsey, director Of the War Risk
Insur ance Bureau. announced here to-
day.
He has completed the new schedule
OF rates. terms and arrangements for
handling tho peace-time insurance,
and will mako public the plans next
week.
Chief among provisions for SIM
pllfication Of the insurance work is
the arrangement whereby the pre-
miums may be paid through post
Offices
Terms Of the new Government in
surance are said to embrace the most
liberal provisions Of all private COM
panies. They were worked out with
the aid OF officials OF many we'll
signed to give wide privileges to the
said.
With the conversion Of the policies,
II was hinted here that a general
housecleaning will begin at the War
Risk Bureau. Officials said they were
anxious to avoid further criticism.
A general checking up of all
troublesome 30,o00,0oo separate
pieces-has been started since Colonel
Lindsey took charge OF the bureau.
He explained that by eliminating
errors at the time conversions are
made, the insurance records will then
stand so long as the risk IL carried.
Colonel Lindsey brought twenty-siH
tons Of such records with him from
France.

BIGGER CROPS ARE
URGEDO OF FARMERS

Europe is still starving and America
must feed her.
Crop and livestock conditions In
England, France, Italy, and Belgium
are extremely bad, and American
farmers were urged today to keep
UP their wartime production Of
foodstuffs
This warning was conveyed in q
summary of a report OF an American
agricultural commission appointed by
the Secretary Of Agriculture In
August, 1918, to study agricultural
conditions in the countries mentioned.
Everywhere the commission travel
cd. the report points out. production
Of food has fallen considerably be-
low the average, and figures are sub
mitted which clearly show that
America must still feed Europe and
her own people.
The commission Is without Europe's
needs for wheat for 1920, and has
suggested that these European coup.
tries give America wheat estimates
as soon as possible in order that the
American farmer may know exactly
what he must produce.
Cooperation between the American
people and European farmer Is urged
by the commission.
To carry out adequate distribution
OF American foodstuffs. the commits
sion recommends an inter-allied
agricultural council on which tho
member from the United States should
be the Secretary of Agriculture.
The complete report of the commits
sion will be printed by the Depart
ment of Agriculture as a public
document.
