Gen. Allen Feted,
To Devote Time
To Writing

Maj. Gen. Henry II. Allen, who
commanded the American Army of
Occupation. was the honor guest
at luncheon given today at the
Hamilton Hotel by Overseas Writers,
an organisation of newspaper men
who have seen service. abroad, OF
which Mark Sullivan is chairman.
The Generals aide, Captain Hutch
inson, accompanied him.
General Allen has his work cut
out for him for the first two or
three years after his retirement on
April 13. After few weeks vaca.
ton at his home in Kentucky, he
proposes to devote himself to pre-
pairing the official history of the
army of occupation, which he is TO
write for the Government, and ne
will settle down to the task in Wash.
ington.
General Allen for good many
years has kept more volun1nous
journal than a confirmed diarist. In
it are chronicled all the official and
unofficial happenings of the army on
the Rhine. When that work is com
pleted 1t is very probable that Gen
eral Allen will write his memoirs for
public offering. He has had sew
eral offers already.
The Journal Of the Rhine days is
REINFORCED with number OF similar
volumes dating back to the time
when General Allen, then younger
and less highly titled officer, gained
quite a reputation for his services
in Alaska. His whole life has been
interesting, and, moreover, General
Allen knows how to go about writ
ing book, as he already has sew.
eral volumes on military subjects to
his credit.

In addition to his reputation as

A CONGRESSIONAL INSULT"

Secretary of War John w.
Weeks is not to be blamed for
feeling incensed over the action of
the House in depriving General
Hartford, former deputy chief Of
staff, of his retired pay because
this officer has become president
Of Radio Corporation of America
and as such will have business
dealings with the government.
The implication which the
amendment to the army appropri-
alton bill carries is not to be mis-
taken. 1t very plainly assumes
that the retired officer against
whom the measure is directed viii
use his influence with the War
Department to secure profitable
advantages in the sale of radio
products to the government. 1t
means just that, or 1t means
nothing, and it therefore reflects
Immediately upon the integrity CT
General Harbord and upon the in
tegrity OF the War Department it
self.

Secretary Weeks, who holds
General Hartford in high esteem.
and VINO, as the executive head Of
the military establishment, natu-
rally repudiates the idea that he
or his subordinates will be un-
worthily influenced in any bust
ness transaction, is filled with re-
sentiment that the House should
strike at him and his organization
in what he regards as a gratui-
tous fashion. And it is easy to
sympathize with ;his point Of view
1t is easy also to understand and
TO approve the principle involved
in the House measure. In effect,
the House seeks to discourage the
employment by private interests
of retired army officers, who will
be expected in the course of their
private services, to do business
with the government. BY with
drawing their retired pay, which,
in the ordinary course of events,
is to run for life, such officers nat
urally would be made to hesitate
about going into The sort of bust
ness which the House hclds to be
questionable.
1t so happens that the measure
adopted by the House is aimed d.

one of the ablest officers the army
has produced in years. Moreover,
he is one of the gallant figures of
the war. He was raised in ranl;

the post of chief of staff Of the
expeditionary force. From that
