It Is expected that General Harris will visit Camp Henning, near Columbus, a few days before the Legion meeting. He has also net-opted an invitation to address the state meeting of the Tennessee Legion, at Chattanooga, which meets next week. General Harris Is a na tive of Georgia, having been born at Kingston. Bartow county. He was graduated from the Military academy In 1888, having been appointed from his home at Cedartown. He Is an honor graduate of the Infantry and Cavalry school and the, Army War college, and received the decoration of the Distinguished Service Medal for services during the world war. General Harris became the adjutant general on September 1,1918, to serve, a four-year tenure. The adjutant general's office In the war department D the largest single record office In tbe world, and the volume of business handled surpasses that of any other administrative brunt h of the government. Its cor respondence during the wur was al most ninety-five times aa great as that handled in normal times, and al though there has been some dtmunl- tlon In the work, It still is far In excess of any previous peace-time de mands. An Instance Is cited by Gen- rat Harris, who said 925,930 pieces of mall were received during the fis cal year 1916, while at,616,242 was the total number for the year 1919. “The work of assembling and tiling of those records of the world war and Its participants la fast approach- (Special to The Banner) Rome, June 24.—Slowly (lie god of commerce is grinding away a little at a time the romance and, antiquity of this cradle of civilization. The Corso, from tbe time of Ro man emperors the busiest thorough fare of the city, Is losing its ancient chatacter. Tile four huge triumphal atchea which once spanned the street were destroyed centuries ago. Pal aces and churches were left, but ths palaces are fulling before the irre sistible demands of commerce. Two huge old palaces occupying a site half-way up the Corso have al ready gone down before the commer cial onslaught. In their places have been reared two big, gaudy structures to be occtapled by banks, which stand out In bold contrast to the quiet col oring of tho undent gems of archi tecture. When the palaces are not torn down they are modified I11 such a way that the Interior decoration, some o( which has stood the test of cen turies, Is effaced and sometimes plas tered. Numerous alterations are mads to suit the necessities of business. In the quarter where the church of St. John Latemii la located a new amusement company has taken pos- session of a large square, of vacant ground and has erected carrousels roller-coasters, ferrls-wbeels and slda shows. The romance and beauty or the spot has vanished. Resolution Passed By Mass.

General Harris raid his main pur pose had bten to bring about accu 1 ate records which were quickly avail able. “One of the moat gratifying re- ultf.’’ commented the adjutant gbn cud, "of the expeditious handling of lhe records lias been the possibility of complying quickly with requests for information from the bureau of war risk Insurance, tho federal hoard for vocational training, the American Red Cross null other relief agencies upon whom veterans of tbe war de pend. It la alio far more economical to keep the work current, If It la pos sible to do so, because when letters nre not answered promptly tbe re quests are repeated and a vast umuuu of duplication leaults." Among the many new features of the organization In the adjutant gen eral's office has been Ideas put lato effect while General Harris was the assistant adjutant general before hit promotion to tha full charge. They include the abolition of tbe muster-ln and muster-out rolls of tha National Guard, which caused loss of days In 1916; the substitution of the soldier’s service record for the descriptive list, which rendered obsolete - three blank forms; the abolition of the muster rolls la tbe regular army; reduction of company records; tbe simplifica tion of monthly returns; the monthly publication of general orders and bul letins, un1 the raving of some 37,09(1 a month by modification of the roei - - of issuing special orders.
