In replying to this memorandum,

American principles of distribution of
the former German Atlantic and Pa

State Dept. Probing
ROsenbluth's Part in
CrOnkhite Killing

washington, April -l-AttOrney
General Daughcrty refused today to
grant a personal interview to Cap
tain Robert Rosenbluth of New
York. who is charged at Tacoma,
Wash, with having ordered the
shooting of Major Alexander Cronk-
hite at Camp Lewis, in 1913.
Captain Rosenbluth was accom-
panied to the Department of Justice
by Senator Calder of New York, who
was assured by the attorney general
that the charge against Rosenbluth
would be investigated thoroughly.
At the department it was ex-
planned that Mr.. Daugherty, in re-
fusing to see Rosenbluth, took the
position that since he planned to
make a personal investigation of the
whole case, he should not receive
personal statements direct from a
defendant.
Captain Rosenbluth was received
by Mr.. Daugherty last week, but
officers of the department said that
this was before the attorney general
had started his investigation. The
accused man appeared at the depart
ment with letter from Secretary
Hoover, it was said, and was accom-
panied by Miss Katherine Davis,
former commission of corrections in
New York City.
Describing the interview today,
Mr.. Daugherty said Rosenbluth told
a straightforward story but that it
was too early to form an opinion in
the case He reiterated that Rosen-
bluth, who is at liberty on bail after
his arrest in New York, would not
be sent west for trial unless the de-
partment was reasonably sure of his
connection with the case. 1t was
added, however, that it was not yet
determined whether the case was one
for the federal or state courts and
that if Rosenbluth was eXtradited
under state laws the department
would not interfere.

WEEKS SEEKS

FOR next WAR
Plans Novel Organiza-
ton with Gen. Per-
shing at Head
Former Commander of Amer
lean Overseas Forces to Play
War Game Indepenent of
Present Peace Staff-WOuld
Function Immediately with
Menace of War

Washington, April 20 General
Pershing will be appointed head of a
skeletonized general headquarters, or
war staff, to be organized at once for
directing the field operations of the
nations armed forces in time of war,
Secretary Weeks announced today.
In time Of peace. the new staff will
not interfere with the functions of
the general staff Of the army, Mr..
Weeks said but will concern itself
with problems of strategy and tactics
incident to the operations of the ar
mics in time of war.
The new war staff, according to the
plans as announced, will not be hamp-
cred with peace time details of train
ing troops, procuring supplies and
kindred matters, but will be free to
perfect a complete organization capa-
BILE of swinging smoothly into the
control of a number of field armies in
| the event of hostilities. The chief
of staff of the army will continue to
| direct the peace time administration
of the military establishment, includ-
| ing the national guard and reserves.
| While Secretary Weeks would not
comment on the details of the plan,
it was indicated that General PERISH
! ing would Immediately proceed to
gather around him officers who were
associated with him in France. Hav-
ing perfected an organization along
the lines of his general headquarters
! in France, it was said that the new
staff would proceed to the consider
alton of plans prepared by the war
plans division of the general staff and
to the consideration of the army per-
sonnet with a view to selecting ten
| tatively men to command armies,
corps and other large units in event
of hostilities.
The plan announced today by Sec
rotary Weeks was regarded as an in
novation in the administration of the
military establishment. Heretofore
a division of the general staff has
been charged with the formulation of
war plans, but the details of a COM
mander in chief staff officers and
field commanders in general for ac-
+, tive military operations has been
i left until the outbreak of war.
1t was recalled today that when the
United States entered the war
against Germany it was necessary
for General Pershing to select his
aides and to build a general head
quarters which would always be rea-
dy to take up the command on an in
stant's notice.
Although details of the plan were
not announced today. it was inferred
that General Pershing would select
a chief of staff for general headquar-
ters. Mr.. Weeks said he would soon
announce the new chief of staff of
the army who will succeed Major
General Peyton c. March.
| 1t was rumored that General March
would be assigned to the command of
the Hawaiian department after he
leaves the office of chief of staff. Sec
rotary Weeks only comment on the
subject was that he would select zone
of the best officers of the army for
the post for I consider it one of the
most important details we have"

Washington, April 21-The appoint
ment of Colonel George Harvey as
American ambassador to Great Bri-
tain, confirmed by the Senate last
week in executive session, was open
ly attacked and defended for four
hours today in one of the most re-
markable and unusual sittings ever
witnessed in the Senate chamber. :
Scarcely had senators settled in
their seats after the Senate had con-
vened at noon, when Senator Harri-
son, Democrat, Mississippi, arose, re-
minded the Senate that he had sought
to consider the Harvey nomination in
open session but had been blocked
and then launched into an attack on
the new ambassador and his appoint
ment which for vehemence, the Sem
ate had not for years heard the
equal.
He described Mr.. Harvey "as a Gre
ator of prejudice and stirrer OF
strife" and as "vindictive, self
anointed iptolerant political accident"
and charged that the appointment
would be regarded by millions of pa
triotic Americans regardless of par
ty affiliations as a browning affront to
the invalid who recently vacated the
White House,
d Co.
fairly aghast at the unusual speech Of
the Mississippi senator and at his cpl
thets and adjectives of denunciation.
Then followed conferences, includ-
ing several between Senator Lodge
and Sci ator Brandegee of Connect
cut, a close personal friend of Mr..
Harvey. Many Republican senators
left the chamber while Democrats, as
Senator Harrison proceeded, smiled
and gave other evidences of their
approval.
When Senator Harrison had con-
cluded and while the galleries, unu-
sually crowded. bent forward to see
if a reply would come from the Re
publican side, Senator Reed, Demo-
crat, Missouri. gained recognition and
started n reply in which he accused
his Democratic colleague of seeking
to embarass the new ambas sador in
his work, declared President Harding
was perfectly within his rights in APP
pointing Mr.. Harvey to the court of
st. James and asserted that Mr.. Har-
rison had burned the midnight oil
to light his taper at the fires of ven
om.''
Opposition of Col. Harvey to the
League Of Nations was praised by Sem
ator Reed, who tainted his Democrat
ic colleagues with declarations that
the League of Nations issue hod prov
cd their undoing in the last preslden-
tial election.
The conclusion of Senator Reeds
speech brought Senator Lodge to his
feet for a speech in which he declared
that never in his memory had man
appointed to office been attacked after
his nomination had been attacked after
his nomination had been confirmed and
after he had become representative
of the United States and of its govern
ment. Senator Lodge deplored the at
tack on the new ambassador as "a
sorry bit of political tactics and
