His disavowal of intent to find fault will scarcely remedy the favorable opinion that many persons will be inclined to form. In belittling the intensified training of officers at Harvard, Adjutant-General Pearson is taking a position directly opposed to that of the leading military authorities of the United States. The Harvard course has the approval and support of the War Department. The program of training as mapped out by Captain...
