GEN. FRIES RAPS
PRISON 'SOFTNESS'
"Mollycoddlism" Is Attacked in
Address Before Lions
Club.

Maj Gen. Amos A. Fries, retired
chief Of the Chemical Warfare Service,
attacked as "nnollycoddlism" the pres
ent day tendency to overemphasize the
kind treatment of inmates of peniten-
tiaries, during a talk yesterday at a
luncheon of the Lions Club at the May
flower Hotel.
There is no need to be extraordi-
narily kind to prisoners when before
their confinement they respected no
rights of society,"" Gen. Fries declared.
Il am for capital punishment, and
want to commend the Board of Trade
for its action in opposing the movement
to do away with the death penalty for
capital offenSes in the District of CO.
lumbia. Why should any effort be made
to save the life of a murderer after he
has taken life?"
The remarks on the treatment of
prisoners were made in the course of q
patriotic address. during which Gen.
Fries predicted that the next war will
witness a greater use of poisonous gas
and aircraft than did the last. He said
that in the World War this country was
unable to use mustard gas until about q
year after it was used by the enemy be-
cause of inadequate chemical knowledge
He advocated preparedness as a safe
guard against future wars.
Special entertainment was provided
by group from the Costello Post of the
American Legion. The group included
Billie Bernie, Eddie Morris, Jack Lynch
and Arnold Irons.

LIEUT.. COL. IF. BELL
v WILL LEAVE ARMY
Former D. C. Engineer Com
missioner May Become Cow
ington, Kyy Manager.

Lieut.. Col j. Franklin Bell, Corps o:
Engineers, formerly Engineer Commits
sioner of the District and now assigned
at San Francisco, will be placed on the
retired list of the Army shortly at his
own request, it was announced today al
the War Department.
While official confirmation was lack
ing, 1t was generally understood that
Col. Bell had accepted recent offer
from authorities at Covington, KY, to
become manager of that city.
Covington is located just across the
Ohio River from Cincinnati, where Col,
g. o. Sheriff., formerly in charge OF
the ONCE of public buildings and
grounds of the National Capital, is
employed as city manager.
Memorials Praise Service.
Col Bell was one of the most popular
Engineer Commissioners to serve the
District, and when his tour of duty ex-
pired in 1927, local citizens organi2a-
lions and trades bodies petitioned for
an extension of his service here, so that
the National Capital might benefit by
his understanding and interest in Dis
trict government matters. The request
was declined because of the policy OF
the Army to give its engineer officials
experiences in different fields.
Farewell memorials adopted by local
organizations praised the service which
he had rendered to the District in his
four-year assignment here.
Col Bell now is at San Francisco as
engineer officer at headquarters of the
9th Corps Area. He will be placed on
the retired list of the ARMY the latter
part of this month. The War Depart
nent announced today that he would
be relieved of his present duties Novem-
Der Is and would await retirement at
the convenience of the Government.
His retirement is entirely voluntary.
Application Approved.
He recently applied for retirement at
the conclusion of so years of service.
The application has just been approved
by the President.
Col Bell was born in Pennsylvania,
November 8. 1870, and was graduated
from the Military Academy in June,
1902, and from the Engineer School in
1910. He has had charge of several i'm
portant river and harbor projects in
various parts of the country. in addition
to his services with the District gov
eminent and reached the grade of lieu
tenant colonel in November, 1924.
He Is the third high ranking officer
of the Engineer Corps TO apply for re-
tirement within the last few months.
The others are Col Charles W. KutZ,
former Engineer Commissioner of the
District, and Col. William p. Wooten.
