PERsHiNa TO RETIRE.
General Asks to Be Relieved From
Active DUTY With Army

General Asks to Be Relieved From
Active Duty With Army.
Washington. June 8.-Gen. John ].
Pershing, former commander in chief
Of the A. 2. F., III letter to Secre-
tary of War Baker indicated his de-
sire to be placed on the retired list
as soon as his work upon the, army
reorganization act is completed.
This measure provides certain dur
ties for the general of the army III
connection with the reorganization
OF the various branches Of the SER
vice. 1t is expected General Pershing
would be.table to complete the work
within few months.
General Pershing said he did not
care to make any statement as to his
future plans. Under, the special act
OF congress giving him the rank Of
full general for life he will continue
to draw full pay and allowances.
Under these circumstances it is ex-
pected he might not make any bust
ness connection Immediately, ii at all,
Reports were In circulation some time
ago that he intended to engage In the
banking business with Gen. Charles
G. Dawes, Of Chicago. but this was
denied.
The text Of General Pershins's let
ter to Secretary Baker follows:
Referring to our conversation Of q
few days ago. wish to say 1t has
long been my desire to return to civil
life. Turnout my military career, I
have been very much occupied, and
the assignments that have fallen to
my lot during recent years have been
more or less important.
TT now appears that my duties are
will require more than a portion Of
my time. Under the circumstances.
I feel that after the completion Of
the work contemplated by the army
reorganization act, could relinquish
military duty without detriment to
the service and thus be free for some-
thing more active. Therefore, unless
a situation should develop to Justify
my remaining, contemplate taking
tho step indicated within tho next
few months. f
SHOULD the necessity arise In tho
time of crisis or otherwise, assure
you, Mr.. Secretary, that I shah stand
ready to serve my country in the fu-
turo a. have In the past"
The placing Of General Pershing on
the retired list win solve q problem
which has vexed both the war de-
partment and congress-. There IL no
place for the commanding general Of
the army in tho peace time scheme Of
the army reorganization unless he
were made chief of staff. Secretary
|of War Baker has shown no DISPOSE
ton to relieve General March from
this post.
4 With General Pershing outranking
General March, It is obvious compli-
cations might arise II the former were
to remain on active duty. ID:

Alison Cole to
Be Returned to
Howard County
Judge Woodrough Issues Writ
In Accordance With Decision
That Confessed Murderer's
Trial Invalid.

Lincoln, Neb.. Oct l9.-(Special.)
Federal Judge Woodrough today
issued a writ directing Warden Fen
ton of the state penitentiary to turn
Alison B. Cole over to the sheriff of
Howard county in accordance with
his decision of October II. that the
death sentence imposed upon the
prisoner was invalid.
Judge Woodrough instructed that
the necessary papers be placed in the
hands of Deputy United States Mar
shall Tom Carroll and that they be
served on the warden Tuesday. Ac-
cording to Mr.. Priest. attorney for
Cole, the papers have already been
issued and are now in Marshal Car
rolls possession.
Cole was under sentence to die
in the electric chair November 5 for
completely in the murder of Mrs.
Lula Vogt in Howard county on
July, 1917. Cole and Allen V. Gram
mer, also under death sentence in
connection with the murder, through
their attorneys have put up thrill
ing legal fight for their lives, nu-
merous reprieves having prevented
tehir execution up to this time.
Judge Woodrough based his re-
cent decision on the fact that the
degree of Coles crime had never
been fixed by the judge presiding
over the trial.

i. S. Kept
At War by
President
--Elihu Root.
Former Cabinet Member De-
clares United States Would
Have Joined League But
For Stand of President.
Article 10 Is Condemned
-Elihu Root.
BY The Associated Press.

New York, Oct. l0.-Elihu Root,
in his only address on the league of
nations during the presidential cam.
paign, tonight declared that the
treaty of peace with Germany would
have been ratified and America
would have been a member of the
league Gif President Wilson had
been willing"
"Mr. Wilson, however, was not
willing. He insisted upon the treaty
absolutely unchanged" Mr.. Root
said, adding later on in his speech:
II do not question Mr.. Wilson's
beliefs that the disposition OF the
treaty for which he was contending
on May 81, 1919, were just and fair;
but, without disrespect, ! do question
Mr.. Wilson's infallibility; | do ques-
ton the complete control of abstract
Justice in the processes by which the
four men who dictated those treaties.
which undertook to make over east
ern Europe, reached their conclu-
sions.
Impression of Mistakes.
II have an impression that there
was the accommodation of conflict
ing interests, the giving of some
thing here to get something there;
the yielding of some things in order
to avoid losing others; the shading
of justice by expediency, which has
characterized such c onferences since
history began. l have strong inn
preston that some Of their conclu-
sions were mistakes.
"And | think it most Objectionable
that the American people shall enter
into solemn and positive agreement
to guarantee and maintain by force
of arms for all time the dispositions
of territory and sovereignty which
these four men made in the year
1919
THAT is part Of what article
10 undertakes to do. 1t is an al
lance to enforce perpetually through
the operations of the legue, the de-
cisions of Mr.. Wilson and his as
sociates in the year 1919. 1t is
throw-back to the old discredited al
liances of the past. 1t speaks Lam
guage of power, and not the spirit
of progress. 1t is an attempt to
do what the holy alliance sought
100 years. ago with just as noble
expressions of purpose)-to impose
by force the judgment of the rulers
of the present generation. upon all
future generations

Great Britain's coal mining indus

weather prevails over the British
Isles.
Yesterdays serious rioting near
the official residence of the premier
