WORD FROM WASHINGTON
Weeks Checks (rucIty.

WASHINGTON. July 6.-iSpeciaI
correspondence M~istreating OF en-
listed men in the regular army was
given a di~scouraging blow recently
when Secretary of War Weeks sum
marty removed Col. +. S. FoltZ from
,o.lmanu Of the army post al For.
Oglethorpe. Georgia. According to
reports. Private George F.. Rhodes
had been absent without leave in viO-
latiOn of the regulations. He was
put in irons with the result that his
ankles were so severely injured that
he vas sent to the hospital for six
weeks and after his discharge from
the hospital he was again placed in
irons and his ankles again injured so
badly that he may never again have
control of his feet in walking. He
was also subjected to solitary con
finement and other punishments, in
Guiding mental service when not in
condition to work and while still in
irons. The boys mother tried un-
successfully to get fair treatment Of
Rhodes but without success and
then took the matter up with Con
gresham Benjamin L.. Rosenbloom,
OF West Virginia, who was so deeply
impressed with the injustice OF the
case that he insisted upon a thor
Ough investigation. Removal of
Foltz from command Of the post re-
suited, and further action will de-
pend upon the final outcome of the
investigation.

More Republican Economy.

Secretary of the Navy DENLY has
issued AN order transferring coal
burning battleshipS from the Pacific
to the Atlantic fleet. and oil burners
from the Atlantic to the Pacific. The
effect of the change will be to com
bine i'll each fleet all vessels of the
same type of fuel consumption. In
addition to that manifest advantage
il will bring the coal burners nearer
to their source of fuel supply. and
the same is true of the oil burners.
Great economy and efficiency in
operation are sure to follow the re
organization.

WESTERN FOREST FIRE
SEASON OPENS FAVORaBLY

Frequent rains have been a boon
to the western forests this spring,
and the officers OF the Forest Serv-
ice. United States Department of
Agriculture, express themselves as
greatly relieved at escaping a dang
err which has been keeping them on
the anxious seat.
The danger was that If the sum
mer fire season came or as usual
their control IN the National Forests
would be impossible with the funds
available before July l.. when a new
fiscal year begins. The appropria-
ton for The current fiscal year was
heavily drawn upon to fight fires
last summer n fall, and though a
deficiency appropriation was OBJ
tanned from Congress which partly
repienished the fund. mOu avail
able this spring for protecting the
National Forests has been less than
the average expenditures necessary
during the same period in recent
years. Hence the relief that fire.
Quent rains have kept the forests too
damp to permit dangerous condi-
lions to become general.
But the government foresters do
not consider that this is entirely due
to favorable weather and timely
rains. The public is becoming in
.erested in ore preservation. and
the oft-repeated story of the destruc-
ton caused by human carelessness
is beginning to make its impression.

insufficient to meet emergencies.

In a speech at a dinner given by
President Harding to bankers from
the Middle West, George NJ. Rey-
nolds, of Chicago, took issue with
views previously expressed by New
York bankers concerning the nd
ing of the European debt to the
United States and some of the news
paper writer's have called his speech
a declaration of independence OF
Chicago banks from the domination
of the New York banking interests
Well. If there is any domination.
there is need for a declaration of
independence. What this country
needs. not only in banking but in all
sorts Of business. is a spirit of CO.
operation. There is no place in this
country for domination. Naturally
the financial center Of the country
will be where there is the most bust
ness of a national and international
nature. Whenever Chicago or IN
other city attains that prestige. it
will supersede New York as the fin
ancial enter of the country. But
wherever the financial center may be
located. there is no need for "dOmi-
nation" in the sense of dictatior.
