Major Peck Re-
grets Censuring
The Guardsmen

WASHINGTON, Aug. 26.-The
Senate Military Affairs Committee,
members stated today will vote after
the recess on the objection raised by
Senator Capper and Spencer to the
promotion of Maj. Robert G. Peck,
charged with having 'insulted" Mis-
souri, and Kansas troops in a report on
the Thirty-ffth Division.
Peck, who went before the COM
mittee in his own behalf was exam
ined further yesterday. He said that
he regretted having made statements
that seemed to reflect on the National
Guard. The report to which exception
has been taken, he testified, was in
tended to be a confidential document
for the corps commander. 1t was his
duty, he told the committee,
to set down conditions as
he saw them. He said there was I'M
due familiarity between officers and
men and that conditions in the divi'
sion's camp just after the Argonne
fighting were insanitary.
1t developed at the hearing thai
Peck, in a report to the division com
mander, spoke highly of the morale
and fighting qualities of the division
but that this praise, which would hav'
softened the sting left by his otheI
remarks, was left out of the repor
to the corps commander.

Public Funeral to
be Given ZR-2
Victims in England

LONDON, August 26.-The Amer
lean and British victims Of the dis
aster to the ZR-2 at Hull Wednesday
evening will be accorded a great pub
lie funeral, probably in London, Il h
considered certain. The Air Ministry
has the project under adyisement a14
an announcement regarding it is ez-
pected.
Meanwhile, all England, profoundly
stirred by the destruction of the gland
dirigible-the greatest Of all air Dis
asters-is giving expression to IL
deep feeling of mourning for the vie-
Tins and sympathy for those bereay-
ed. In London the atmosphere is Soma
what akin to that which followed tia
receipt of a serious disaster during
the war days.
Pending the inquiry which, it is a.
sumed, will be Of a searching char
acter, attempts to account for the trag
edy are merely speculative, but it la
recalled that during a nine-hour trial
trip on July II, some of the Orders
in the middle of the ZR-2 showed
weakness which necessitated rein
forcement. This work was done i'm
mediately at Howden and experts he-
lieved that the weakness in the struc-
ture of the airship had been remedied-
1t is now regarded significant, how
ever, that observers below have de-
cIared that there was a buckiing
amidships which seemed to precede
the explosions which sent the IRA
flaming to the earth.
