Army Decentralization
Without Labor Loss
Rests With Congress

Demobilization in the army and de-
mobilization in industry will be accom-
plished with a minimum of unemploy-
rent and misery so far as New York
is concerned if Congress acts promptly
to validate the settlement of cancelled
war contracts.
This is the opinion CT Henry Brucre,
who resigned last week from the Fed
eral dictatorship Of the United States
Employment Service here. Mr.. Bruere
is frank to say that only the feeling
the employment bureau had been firmly
established and able to meet the ex-
traordinary demands of demobilzation
made it possible for him to leave his
post.
$50 far" Mr.. Bruere told The Tribune,
"the readjustment cf industry to peace
time work has absorbed all the men
discharged from service and virtually
al employees formerly engaged in war
work. A certain proportion of women
have been thrown out Of employment
and clerks are having hard time find
ing jobs.
"The whole problem is tremendous
task in human engineering making it
possible for industry to speed up on
peace basis and getting the men and
The jobs together.
Burden Rests With Congress
"The United States Employment Ser
vice is doing it's best through an intri-
cate network of offices, skilled employees,
including officials stationed at all the
army camps, TO put the men out of
work In touch with vacancies. But
the speeding up Of peace time indus
try, which Is essential il we are not
IL face disastrous period Of unem-
ploymenc rests largely with Congress.
There is imperative need for the i'm
mediate settlement Of the thousands
Of cancelled contract accounts. Con-
gress should act quickly to release this
tied-up capital II is particularly
necessary because 20 much capital al
ready is preempted in government
finances Big manufacturing firms
have millions tied up in the four Lib
erty Loans, and they will be asked

'fn the Hight OF this, the industries
Of New York State have done phe-

immense problem of 100000 soldiers
THE proposal to cure all this by
slowing down rehabilitation is not SO
simple as it seems. The army is hu-
man, and now that the war is over it
wants to get back to normal life. If
we try to slow down demobilization
without extraordinary efforts at buiid-
ing a new national morale the natural
tendency Of soldiers to-day to overstay
leave may be increased to the point of
virtual desertion. Then we shall be in
q worse situation than before"

cause of his genial epistolary style, all
he had to do 10 get an autograph was
to write to the person whose signature
he wanted. He wrote to Colonel r. M
House and the colonel was so Impressed
With the letter that he no only auto
graphcd the Pamphlets sent him, bat
dispatched his chauffeur with them to
the address Goldstein had given. As
Goldstein wasn't there the colonel had

oPrshing, Brander Matthews, DR.. Henry
IAN d ke, Enrico Caruso, Lord Dun
nv and Vicente BIasco Ibanez. But
it is alleged that he did not sign hi;
letters with his own name and that
later he sold 8 5me of the autographs
which he had obtained on the assump'
ton that he wanted them only for his
own satisfaction.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 22.-Thc fail
ure of the Mexican government to
promptly order the release of Ameri-
can Consular Agent William O. Jen-
klns, at Puebla, from the penitentiary
there, in compliance with the sharp
note Of this government, dispatched
Thursday, is interpreted here as
studied defiance of the United States
government, and has made more gen
eral q discussion of the possibility Of
armed intervention as the one step
that must finally be resorted to
The department to-day received ad-
vices from the American Embassy at
Mexico City which stated that news
papers publ shed there yesterday re-
vealed that Mr. Jenkins was still in the
penitentiary. He is under arrest on
charges of conniving with FREDERICK
Cordova, his bandit kidnaper, who he'd
Mr.. Jenkins for a ransom Of Sl50,000.
Charges Not Substantiatcd
State Department officials declined to
discuss the Jenkins case, although Sec
retary Ian ing frankly 6 omitted that
rs far as he knew Mr.. Jenkins was still
in the Puebla penitentiary. The de-
partmont. however, made pubic the fact
that Charge d'Atfaires Summerlin Of
the American Embassy at Mexico City
had delivered to the Mexican Foreign
Office on Thursday night the American
note demanding the immediate release
of Mr.. jenkins.
To-day's advices said no information
has been supplied by theMexican au
thorities that would tend to sustain
the charges made against Mr.. Jenkins
and on the basis of Mr.. Jenkins's re
oort to the department.. made public
yesterday. it is assumed this govern
ment will hold Mr.. jenkins innocent OF
any conspiracy until indisputable evi
dence has been presented by his cap
tors.
"Rcasonable Time" Allowed
While the demand of this govern
ment called for the "imm ediate" release
of Mr.. Jenkins, it was said to-day tina
"reasonable time" would be givel
the Pueb.a authorities to liberate the
American official.
The Mexican Foreign Office to-day
advised this government that it is tax
ing steps in the case of Eugene Lack
an American citizen, who was shot a.
