Bill to Make Him Eligible Intro

Weeks Request.

At the suggestion Of Secretary
Weeks. Representative Kahn, chair
man of the House military commit
tee, has introduced a bill designed
especially to make Maj. Gen. James

in Europe on leave Of absence. eligible
for appointment as chief of staff. The
Secretary of War explained the stu
alton in a letter to Mr.. Kahn. Gen.
Harbord came here" said he. the
Pershing remains on the active list.
he will continue as chief of staff until
two years from next September. when
he retires. after which Gen. Harbord,
because of his three years and two
months service here, would not be
eligible for appointment as chief Of
staff for any longer period than ten
months until he had served two years
with troops. OF course, we cannot
look forward with any certainty as
to what will happen two years from
now, but II remain at the head of
the War Department 1 should wish
to recommend Gen. Harbord to sue
ceed Gen. Pershing. 1t Is a natural
promotion Gen. Harbord will know
more thoroughly than any other can
the workings Of the War Department
and the duties of the chief, and it
does not seem to me to be good legis-
lation to have a provision making 1t
impossible for the President to select
any officer he wishes for such high
preferment."
