Greenwood Asks
For Retirement

Patrolman Richard Greenwood,
whose involuntary retirement from
the police force about month ago
caused a protest and resembling Of
the order. applied for retirement
on his own volition Monday.
The 67-year-old officers petition
for retirement on half pay was
placed before the police pension
board in regular order Monday,
and this time moved by Acting
Captain William Farrar. Safety
Commissioner Holmes Eastwood,
who had asked the mans involun-
tary retirement, was not present to
vote Monday. The original action,
taken without Greenwood's knowl-
edge, with only one police officer
member of the pension board pres
ent. was rescinded early last month
when Farrar declared it was irreg-
ular. He said then Greenwood's
injury by car occurred in the
course of his duty. so he would
have been entitled to full pay for
six months while laid up.
The injured officer expects to
be back on active duty about Nov
20, Farrar said Monday. Retire
ment was made effective Dec. l..
1t was set at Oct. Is in the orig
inal order.
Officer Greenwood joined the po-
lice force Oct. 1, 1908, and has
served continuously since.

LACK OF FORESIGHT
BY HIGH COMMAND

Joined with these economic and
political factors was an incred-
ible lack of foresight by the army
high command and a series of
military blunders that eliminated
on the battlefield in a defeat of
colossal proportions.
There was the matter of mech
aniZed warfare, and the matter of
Germanys rearming. For years
General De Gaulle had been plead
ing with the high command that
war today was war not of men
but of machines; the high COM
mand scoffed at his ideas. In
stead il was the Germans who
adopted the theories he had so
clearly outlined in his books and
his military articles, and they
adopted them with characteristic
Teuton thoroughness.
The high command did nothing
to meet the new conditions created
by this military revolution. The
high command knew thoroughly
of Germany's resrming of the land
and in the air. But blitheiy its
generals went on their accustomed
ways. confident that the wars OF
1910 could still be won with tactics
Of the nineteenth century.

This is an extraordinary settle
