HTICER" JEALOUS OF
MANGN, IS CHARGE
Clemenceau Recalled General
Because BE Feared His
Influence, Paris Hears.

NEW YORK, oct: 16-.According to
an American business man, who is In
close touch with the French military
high command in the Rhineland.. Cen
eraI Mangin's recalLfrom the occupied
territory was caused by Premier
CIemenceau's jealousy OF the French
high commander, says a Mayence
copyrighted dispatch 10 the New
York World.
The following interview between
the premier and General Mangin Is
regarded as authentic, there being
little doubt that IL took place in
Paris, whittier. General Mangin was
summoned by Clemenceau.
Asked Why He Was Recalled.
Being Informed OF the dismissal
from the Rhine command, General
Mangin asked the "Tiger." "Are you
dissatisfied with my services?7
To this Clemenceau replied, 'IOt
at all"
do you disapprove OF my policy on
the Rhine?" then asked the general.
mot in the least" was the Tigers
rejoinder, to which Mangin said:
"Then do you think I am going to
allow myself to be smashed IN be-
tween two doors without any rea-
son?''
Reasons Not Very C6RVihelng.
CIemenceau thereupon tried to give
his reasons for the generals recall,
and, in the opinion OF Mangin's
friends, they were not very convinc-
ing. CIemenceaU, IL IS reported, said;
''Mangin is too smart to be a gen.
arnT and the army Fe fnn TawoFnT n
the general. This I consider a danger
to the republic"
General Mangin then visited Mar
shal Foch, to whom he reported his
conversation with the premier, and
Foch, il is said, was indignant at the
treatment meted out to Mangin. Mar
shaI F2ch's relations with the govern
ment3u Is reported, are purely formal
and are strictly limited to matters in
which the cOmmander-in-chiefs ad-
vice is sought.

ILLEGITIMATESMAY

Mrs. Ellen Spencer Mussey, OF the
Washington College of Law, who has
been chairman OF committee investi-
eating child welfare, last night ex-
planned a bill which the Women's Bar
Association will present to Congress

illeEitimate children.
Mrs. Mussey stated that the bill
wbuld follow the general outline Of
the Castberg act Of Norway. Under
this law, the mother is compelled to
state the name Of the father. II he
admits parenthood, or Is proved to be
the father of the child, the child is
given his name and may inherit prop
erty on the paternal side equally with
half-sisters and half-brothers born in
Wedlock.
Mrs. Mussey said II is not generally
known that in the District OF Colum-
bia an unmarried mother is forbidden
TO give the name OF the father to her
child

GITFS NOTED WILLS
CRUMBLE IN HALL

PHILADELPHIA, Oct 16.-The wills
Of historic pPrsOnages, especially Of
the early Penn period who played
prominent parts in the settling Of
Philadelphia and Pennsylvania are
literally crumbling away as a result
Of not being properly preserved in
the archives OF the City Hall. This
condition has been found to exist by
Albert Cook Myers, historian and ed
itor OF "The Life Of william Penn" /"
who, in the course OF his studies. often
has had occasion f0speruse the ancient
documents.
When told OF the complaints yes

hve years and now IS completing his
second term, listened patiently. Then

is that SOP
Mr.. Sheehsn- was assured that II
was indeed 50, according to Mr.. Myers
ana other students OF PhfIadelphia
history. The register OF wis there
upon declared that ne had not known
OF the condition until told about Il.
MF. Sheehan Interested.
But when Informed that among ths
wills said 70 be rapidly deteriorating
are those Of EnOch Flower, the FIRST
schoolmaster Of Philadelphia: Phillip
theodore Lehnmann, William Penn's
secretary; Captain Thomas Hoime,
surveyor general or Pennsylvania,
who laid out Philadelphia. and other
early settlers to whose histories great
interest Is attached. Mr.. Sheehan sud
denly evidenced a bit Of sentiment.
You know" he said, II like to
The Washington times., 1919-10-16

look over those old things myself. I
think they are interesting. don't you?
Tell you what I'll do-rm going to
have q look at that old stun and see
what there Is to all that talk"
The cause Of the slow but certain
destruction Of the documents, said Mr..
Myers, Is that they are being kept
folded in three and stood in iron hles.
Each time one Of the wills IS unfolded,
he explained, the folds cut q little
deeper. Historians from every part
OF the country come to PhiIadelphia to
study the Wills Of the Quakors, he
said, and the result IS thai the docu-
ments are nearly falling asunder,
aside from becoming nlegible.
Yelling COveF sugrested.
Mr.. Myers recommends that az the
City Han archives be adopted. the
method OF preserving ancient manu-
scripts now in use at the Historical
Society Of Pennslyvania, which pos
sesses a library OF manuscripts val
ued at s., 500, 900. This method. which
was originated by the Vatican library.
consists OF backing the documents
with strong paper, covering them with
sillSen yelling and then binding them
In volumes. Mr.. Myers said little ex-
pense is entailed by the method. the
most important part Of the handling
being that II be supervised by an ex-
pert.
Among the wills said to be IN a di-
lapidated condition are further those
OF group OF men who came over
with William Penn on the ship We'll
come, and who died aboard from
smallpox, There are also those OF
DR.. Thomas Wynne, for whom Wynne-
wood was named, q Welsh Quaker
and "practitiQners Of phyBic;" Andrew
GriscOm, founder Of the prominent
Philadelphia family OF that name;
Thomas Lloyd, governor Of -Pennstl-
vania under Penn; Robert Wade, Of
Essex House, Chester, at whose home
Penn Is believed to have spent the
FIRST night on this side OF the Allan
tic, and others. All these wills were
signed IN the last quarter Of the sew
enteenth century.
