washington, July 24.-The board
of general officers appointed to un-
dertake the most wholesale "pluck-
ing" job ever initiated among the
regular army officers corps will
hold its first meeting tomorrow,
with Major Gen. Joseph r. Dickman,
retired, presiding as president. 1t
was to have begun operations to-
ward the elimination or dcmotion
OF some $500 officers today, but was
held up by the absence of one mem
Der.
Members of the board, which is
representative of all arms Of the
service, were greatly concerned in
their preliminary discussions today
over the probable effect upon the
morale of the army of the suspended
sentence now hanging over the
heads of practically every officer
IN the service, with the exception
of Gen. Pcrshing and the bakers
dozen of second lieutcnants now in
the army
iVhtoIlonS likely
Congress in directing that the Of
ilcers' corp be reduced by January
L to $4,000 did not include tho gen
eral officers Of the army in fixing
the number to be retained in each
grade The War Department. in
preparing legislation for rh~
"pluck-
ing board," did not include the pcn-
eral officers in SO far as retirement
of any Of the major or brigadicr
generals for physical disabillty
would create vacancies and permit
ehc appointment Of colonies 50 gem
er"' olllcers rank, reducing the num-
Ger or surplus coloncls to that OK
tent.
There appeared also to be much
concern among board member. as
20 inc view army officers might
take of the boards action in recon-
mehding any officer for honorable
a'scharge. Preliminary invcstiga-
tlon indicates that probably more
than LOO officers now on the rolls
must be separated" from tho oct;vo
service in this way. The board, if
IS understood, will seek bv evcrv
means to impress upon the armv
ana upon the general public tn,
view that discharge under these
conditions in no way reflects upon
'ne character or the service dis
charged officer has rendered, and
tnat IN majority Of cases at lcast
.he army would much prefer to re-
tam these officers services.
Board members are understood 70
1eel that there is little prospect of
l'nolhg many officers now on tho
ro''s who merit discharge. The
army recently cleaned house in this
regard on its own motion, and the
suggestion of Gen. Pcrshing to Con-
greSs that the strength of the corns
nc tScd at 1880 was based unon
inc efforts then in progress to pat
lio or unsuitable officers in the wov
congress previously had provided
through efficiency ratings and the
Glass b. ratings.

UNREST SHIFTED
: FROM PUBLIC To
PARTY LEADERS
Headquarters Reports Little
Concern About Who Is
Elected to Office.
By United Press

By United Press
WASHINGTON, Oct. 12.-With the
congressional election less than a
month away, party leaders are finding
cause for dissatisfaction in surveys
of the political situation the country
over.
Political unrest, so much heard of
in recent months, has been transferred
from the people to the politicians. In
stead of being politically restless the
people who have the votes seem to be
at rest. A vast inertia appears to grip
them. And in Washington some of
the more intelligent politicians have
begun to wonder whether they haven't
overdone their efforts to soothe and
quiet the restive electorate.
The fact that is most apparent here
is that in most parts Of the county
the people do not seem to give a
whoop who is elected to Congress. a
sharp falling off from the 1920 vote is
indicated in reports to headquarters
here.

Architects for new buildings and
additions at eight schools were Sc

the board Of school commissioners

The action marked the first definite
ssstep toward the Inauguration of a
building program since the board went
into office last January.
Once again the long deferred hopes

DR.. Haslep and Emhardt said they
were in favor of a new Shortridge,
but thought that II should not be con
sidered independently Of the west side
high school project and the question
Of establishing a separate negro high
school.
The three members voting against
Shortridge offered lengthy explana-
tions of their action. although they
refused to express their opinions TO
the large delegation from the Short
ridge Parent-Teacher Association,
which attended the board meeting
Tuesday night.
After the meeting DR.. Haslep and
Commissioner Emhardt said they be
