GOVERNOR GENERAL LEONARD WOOD, 0F
 PHILIPPINES, DIES
FRIEND AND CONFIDENT OF THREE PRESIDENTS; WAS
 BELOVED BY HIS MEN

BOSTON, Aug. 8. ,(P-Governor General Leonard Wood, age 67, died at one minute to two Sunday morn ing at the Peter Bent Brigham hos pital following an operation Saturday for tumor
 The spectacular rise of Major Gen eral Leonard Wood from an obscure post in the medical corps to a com handing rank in the combatant branch of the United States army was one of the outstanding features of American military annals. Ap- pointed an assistant surgeon several years prior to the Spanish-American war, Wood rose to the foremost rank of American generals, his ac- tive duty eliminating in the Gov ernor Generalship of the Philippine Islands after he had served four years as Chief of the General Staff of the army, thei topmost military command
 1 While his rapid promotion, ascrib- rcd largely to his ,sose friendship with Theodore Roosevelt, was the subject Iof frequent criticism in military cir cles, General Woods service was recognized throughout the establish ment as of the highest type His ! first offical commendation for gal gantry came during hostilities with the Apache Indians in 1885, when he was given the Congressional Medal of Honor for bravery, and his work throughout the World War, limited as it was from the Generals stand point, won him the Distinguished Service Medal flor especially meri- torious and cons spicuous service"
 The placing of the medical officer i in command of troops-a prerogative jealously guarded by line officers was a departure so exceptional in : the military establishment that it has since been prohibited by army regu- la ations but that General Wood just ] flied the trust and proved his value as a part of the fighting arm is con- ceded by many of the highest mill tary authorities, and was shown even more conclusively by his unusual rise to- the peak of the profession.
 General Wood was born in Win chester, New Hampshire, October g, j 1860, the son of Charles Jewett and Caroline E. Hagar Wood. His pre- liminary education was obtained at the Pierce Academy, Middleboro, Mass, following which he attended Harvard University and was gradual ed from the medical school in 1884. ] After Harding's election, the prob 1 lem of the Philippines presented it. 1 self again for solution, and it was to General Wood that the President turned for help. In the meantime, however, the officer had been honor ed in striking fashion when the trus- tees of the University of Pennsylva- nia offered him the post of Provost of that institution and he decided to accept. His decision meant either that he must resign from the army or defer his acceptance until he was eligible for retirement, and after much deliberation he decided upon 1 the latter course.
 This meant a delay of several months, and during the interval he was induced, with the acquiescence lof the university authorities, to ac- cept the post of Governor General of the Philippines for one year.. General Wood found much to do in ithe islands, however, and announced
