FIRE TO DOIT
At Request of Secretary Daniels,
Admiral Will Resign to Save
Punishment,
WASHINGTON, Dec. 17.—To save
themselves from being demoted or
from loss of numbers In rank, it is ex
pected Brigadier General Frank McIn
tyre, U. S. A.; Major General James
B. Aleshire, IT. S A., and Rear Ad
miral Thomas B. Howard, U. S. N.,
will resign from the Military Order of
the Carabao.
These officers were requested by
Secretary of War Garrison to explain
the events of the Carabao banquet
last Thursday night as the ranking
officers of the order. Admiral How
ard has been requested by Secretary
of the Navy Daniels not to accept the
presidency of the order to which he
has been elected. It is certain that
Admiral Howard will send in his res
ignation as an officer in the society,
and it is understood he also will sever
his connection entirely. The request
coming from Secretary Daniels is re
garded by Rear Admiral Howard as
an order from his superior officer and
one with which he must comply or be
prepared to accept punishment in the
form of reduction in his grade.
Generals Aleshire and McIntyre
have not been “requested” by Secre
tary Garrison to resign from the or
der, and will not do so until it is
made evident that such action would
be pleasing to the Secretary.
Dr. Charles M. Heller, secretary of
the order, stated to-day that thus far
he had not received any resignations
from either army or navy officials w ho
are members of the order. He inti
mated strongly, however, that he be
lieves some may be received because
of the hostile attitude taken by Pres
ident Wilson-and members of the Cab
inet against the order’s burlesque of
Thursday.
