with the War Department, it was re-
vealed today.
The charge, as set out in Mrs.
Deans affidavit, follows:
"Deponent further deposes that in
the spring or early summer Of 1922,
when the question of General Harry
L. Rogers reappointment as quarter
master general was a subject of more
or less general talk, Colonel William
II. Hart told her that he had signed
the name of J. c. Schemm, secretary
treasurer of the Schemm Publishing
Company. to a telegram which he,
Colonel Hart, sent Secretary of War
Weeks, suggesting certain investiga-
ton in connection with matters in
the Quartermaster Corps, having q
bearing on General Rogers reappoint-
ment as quartermaster general, and
which telegram had been sent by way
of strengthening or emphasizing the
articles which had been appearing
about General Rogers and conditions
in the Quartermaster Corps"
The charges that General Hart,
while a colonel under General Rogers,
~maliciously, selfishly and disloyally "
plotted to prevent his superiors reap.
pointment as qusrtermaster general
and to procure his own appointment
to the office, created a great stir
throughout army and social circles OF
the capital, where both men are wen
known.
An immediate investigation Of the
accusations was ordered by the war
Department. The case, it was stated,
is now in the hands of Major General
John L. Hines, chief Of staff, and will
be laid before the inspector general for
review. -
Although War Department heads
reluctantly admitted the charges had
been filed, they refused TO comment
upon them in any way. 1nasmucn as
the charges allege that General Hart
violated the ninety-fifth article OF
war and was guilty of conduct unbe-
coming an officer and gentleman, II
was said an investigation would be
made to determine whether court
martial is warranted.
Should this investigation develop
grounds for a court-martial, General
Hart would then be given an oppor-
tunity of defending himself. The maxi
mum penalty for conviction OF the
charges is dismissal from the army.
Should General Hart be found
guilty three alternatives, it was stated
TODAY, would confront the War De

dismissal from the army.

East for thrust at Chicago's cafes
and cabarets similar to that made by
him against Broadway. ia
Included in the list was AL johnson,
head of the beer squad, who arrested
Terry Druggan and frankie Lake in
the beer shipping exploi. that put
them in Jail where. they have since
been centrally figured in a scandal.
The others, veterans Of three and
four years service, were Archie Ben
son, Johnson's partner; John Alger,
William Kohjean, Walter George,
Martin Lynn, Edward Daugherty,
Max Henig and Archie Berry.
The Rev. B. NJ. Ewing, acting adj
ministrator in Yellowley's absence, is
sued the dismissals.. He said the
record of each dropped agent would
be investigated by committee named
by Yellowley. - ~
In connection with the proposed
cleanup of cafes and cabarets, which
the Rev. Mr.. Ewing characterized as
common typical drinking places, it was
annouced that Henry G. Northeast,
former field supervisor of the San
Francisco office, had arrived here.
