HAGOOD CHARGES

Seventh Corps Area Head
May Go Unpunished for
Criticisms.

Secretary of War Dern by ignoring
the sensational testimony given yester-
day by Maj. Gen. Johnson Hagood
commander of the 7th Corps Area, be-
fore the House Military Affairs Com.
mittee, has indicated that criticism O.

the War Department today, bat it was
evident he had rot been called or
the carpet for his declaration that
the national defelce organization is
$50 complicated that an archangel
from heaven couldn't run it success
fully"
Matter of Taste"
Secretary Dern said that in his
opinion such remarks by Gen. Hagood
were "a matter of taste on the part
of an officer more than anything else
and that the War Department has
taken no stand in relation to his testi-
mony before the House Committee
This was partly due, he explained, to
the fact that Gen. Hagood had been
summoned to appear before the ccm-
mittee.
The reason Gen Hagood was sum-
moned to testify was Cue to an Army
day speech he made last week. in which
he sharply criticized the red tape" of
the Army and its general "topheavi-
ness"
Gen. Hagood is from South Caro-
lima, the same State of Chairman

Secretary Dern'S attention was called
to the case several years ago of Ad-
miral Magruder, who criticized the
Navy in a magazine article and was
relieved of his command as result.
War Department officials believed to-
day that Gen Hagood, who was equal
ly as critical in his Army day speech,
will "get away with it,
Mentioned as New Chief.
Gen. Hagood. who taught Gen:
Douglas Macarthur, chief of staff,
when the latter was a cadet at West
Point, has been mentioned as the pos
sible next chief of staff of the Army.
He has four more years to serve be-
fore retiring and Gen. MacArthur's S
present term expires in about year.
In his testimony before the House
Committee, Gen. Hagood advanced his
own reorganization plan for the Army,
which, he estimated, would save the
Government s50,000,000 a year. He
emphasized the "topheaviress" of the
War Department and declared the
shock of another war would destroy
the organization.

his own plan for economy in the Army
and War Department, in connection
with Budget Director Lewis Douglas.

Jerusalem as a fortified city. Mala-
chi prophesied during this period.
Great things were happening in the
Gentle world. Athens was at the
acropolis of her glory. Socrates taught
the Athenian youth the doctrine of
the one God, and Pericles gave to the
Greek people their noblest laws. In
India Buddha brooded over the miser-
les of humanity, and sought deliver
ance through humiliation of person
atty by his doctrine of re-absorption
into the world soul. In China, Confu-
sius inoculated his doctrine of rever-
ence for past and veneration of an
cestors.
Ezra had a good ancestry. He was
the great-grandson of Hilleish the
priest who 100 years before had
helped in the reformation inaugurated
by King Joash. He played very
important part in the restoration of
the Jews to their homeland. With
the help of Nehemiah, and probably
the prophet Malachi, he re-organized
the Temple worship. According to
Jewish tradition, he collected and ed
tied the books of the Old Testament
Canon, and indeed was the author of
some of the books, making use of
various historical journals, chronicles
and registers.
Due credit must be given Cyrus,
King of Persia, for making possible
by his DEGREES the carrying on of this
work by the Jews. His proclamation
not only aroused to action the willing
workers among the children Of the
Captivity, but also brought into the
treasury of Ezra silver and gold for
the expenses of the enterprise. And
so the work went on in spite of enc
mics and hindrances, "for the Lord
had made them joyful and turned the
heart of the King of Assyria unto
them, to strengthen their hands in
the work of the house of God, the God
of Israel"

himself in prison for completely in
Sir George Booths revolt. But his
fortune quickly shifted in the follow
ing year when Charles II was re-
stored. We now find Davenant in high
favor and influential in saving the life
of Milton, who nine years before was
reputed to have saved Davenant's life.
He f1ourished under royal favor for
eight years at his new theatre at Lin
coins Inn Field, which he called the
Duke" In the year this theatre was
opened royal patent was obtained
which permitted women's parts to be
taken by women sin order to purge
the stage and provide harmless amuse-
men," Davenant is thus credited with
the first important appearance of a
woman-Mrs. Coleman-on the stage.
Critics did not like this departure,
but, so far as his own personal for
tunes were concerned, the wisdom of
his introduction of women to the
stage was subsequently proved by the
fact that Davenant profted hand
somely from his plays. He became
the most popular dramtist Of his day.
In Pepys' diary are several favorable
comments, such as:
July End, 1861. Went to Sir VIII
liam Davenant's opera, this being
the 4th day that it hath begun, and
the first that / have seen"*"thc
King being come, the scene opened;
which indeed is very fine and mag
nifcent and well acted, all but the
Eunuche, who was so much out that
he was Kissed off the stage.
During these years of his prosper
ity he began to Improve upc 4 the
plays of Shakespeare, in order, he
said, to make them acceptable to the
public. Curiously, we find that Dav-
enant's last work in company with
Dryden, was to travesty his godfath-
er's play, "The Tempest" Davenant
died April 2, 1868, and Pepys, the
snob, commented on his funeral:
Here were many coaches and six
horses, and many hackneys, that
made it look, methought, as if it
were the funeral of poor poet.
Perhaps the adjective was justified
various meanings. -

The Jewish captivity in Babylon
was the direct result of the trans
erosion of Divine law. Despite re-
peated warnings by. prophets raised
up to meet national emergencies,
whose burning messages called kings
and people back from their wan1c"-
ings to Jehovah's way, idolatry, greed,
lust and profanity grew worse and
worse until there was no remedy.
However, Jehovah, who never ut
terly forsook his people, heard their
cries and lamentations by the waters
of Babylon and after seventy years
of exile permitted them to return to
Jerusalem and rebuild their city and
temple. The Books of Ezra, Nehemi-
ali and Esther deal with the period Of
the restoration of the Jews.
Two distinct divisions appear in
this part of the history of Israel, the
first covering a span of twenty years,
536-516 B. c., in which, under Zerru-
babel the Governor and Joshua, the
Priest, they rebuilt the Temple, the
center of their national life. Two of
the minor prophets, Haggai and Zech-
ariah, belong especially to this period.
Haggai hurls a fierce arraignment
against the careless and Indifferent,
who dwell in ceiled houses, while the
House of the Lord lies waste. He de-
clares that they have put their wages
in "bags with holes" because they
have neglected the Temple and its
worship. therefore the heavens over
you is stayed from dew, and the earth
is stayed from her fruit" Can it be
that our bank failures and the low
ebb of our economic resources are at
all connected with our Grass material
ism and our forgetfulness of God?
Here is food for thought!
The second span of this restoration
period covers 457-432 B. c., twenty
five years in which, under Nehemiah
the Governor, and Ezra the Priest,
they rebuilt the wall and restored
