Major General Henry T. Allen, Com­
manding General of the American
Army of Occupation In Germany and
a popular national military figure, is
directing the activities of the Veter­
ans' Bureau of the Democratic Na­
tional Committee. Major General Al­
len agreed to head the bureau follow­
ing a talk with Chairman John J. Ras-
kob.
"1 know the soldiers would have a
very good friend in Governor Smith.”
said General Allen. “Moreover, i
think Governor Smith appeals to them
in a very striking manner by reason
of his personality and record. I feel
that the soldiers haven’t had a very
large say in the affairs of the countrf
as compared with what they ordinar­
ily have had after every great war,
but, of course, it would be Impossible
to keep down all the husky men who j
were organized during the great war ’■
and they will be heard from during
the coming years.”
“The Veteran's Bureau is a division j
of the campaign which is of very great j
importance,” Chairman Raskob said
in announcing the appointment. “The
veterans are entitled to know all about
the candidate, what he stands tor, and
the policies of the party, and we are
keenly anxious to have an opportu- j
nlty of telling the veterans what we j
know about Governor Smith’s record j
and character.”
Major General Allen served as Com- [
manding General of the Army of Occu- (
pation in Germany for three and one- 1
half years. He was later advisor to
the American Ambassador to Great1
Britain at the conference of Ambassa­
dors in Paris during the Harding ad-j
ministration.
After a distinguished military career
General Allen was promoted to Major
General just before the United States
entered the World War and organized |

der of the Army of Occupation he was
