OJLCOTTvAXSO WILLING i : -While he. has not said so,' there is a Very generally accepted belief among his friends and associates, official and personal, that.

His political fortunes which re ceded about the time of the special ses sion of 1920 because of his attitude over the suffrage amendment ratification tan gle and the fish and game squabble nave been on the rnenr. since that time.

Brigadier General Clarence Edwards, ; com mander of the Twenty-sixth National Guard, division ' until relieved ; and sen t home; by General Pershing, Is reported In: high' army circles to be in : line for honors ;under the ned admin istration .'. In., factV It- would not . surprise jDfflcers. ftt . th war de partmeht'to, see' -; Edwards! "supplant General Marsh as chief of the gen eral staff before long.- , . -,. Edwards, it will be recalled, became a storm center in 1918, after being returned to this country by General Pershing. ACTIOX 'RESETTED - Resentment against Pershing's action waa voiced by New England's repre sentatives in congress and on the occa sion of Pershing's visit to Boston after the war, virtually all officers of the Twenty-sixth division declined to attend the dinner for the American commander-in-chief.- ... V;- . ";. . :.. : Edwards Is a personal friend and has the active and sympathetic support. It said, of ' Secretary of War Weeks, Sen ator Lodge and Vice President Coolldge, all of whom are from Massachusetts, his home state. Both Lodge. and Coolldge, It is said In army --circles,", have been merely biding their time until they could square for Edwards what they regarded aa the unfair and humiliating action by General Pershing. v vv MAT HEAD STAFF.., ' " i; Officers of the general staff and in the army, personnel generally view the , re porta now in circulation about Edwards' prospects with different emotions. There is a-, strong feeling among them, how- ever, that because of Edwards' strong political connections he will be a valu able' man as chief of staff, particularly in reference .to' securing from congress legislation the army desires.- . -- -For several days there has been a per-: sistent ; report about the. . war depart ment and in congressional quarters that Marsh will not remain long in his pres ent post, ',-':..' t TSO CONFIRM ATIOJT - ' V It 'has been "the understanding that Major General James G. Harboard, di rector of the second division and head of the service of supply during the war, was Pershing's choice for chief of "staff and had the active backing of Senator Wadsworth. chairman of the senate mili tary affairs committee. Friends of Wadsworth, however, do not : confirm this. They Intimate that Wadsworth favors Brigadier ' General William M. Wright for March's post. Wright is now on the general staff, in charge of supplies. " ". ' . According to the story which would make Edwards chief of staff, it is the plan to have him go into March's chair for only- one .year, giving way at the end of. the period to Brigadier General John L. Hines, now commanding Camp Gordon;, ,...:; . i": f3ete . : ..... Little Girl Struck By Auto Saturday . - . . . - ''.. ; ' ' .
