MENOHER, ONCE Perhaps They’re Hunting Rain! AIR CHIEF AND FOE OF MITCHELL, DEAD Had Distinguished Army Career and Led Rainbow Divi- sion in France Washington, Aug. 12—(?)—Major General Charles T. Menoher, former chief of the army air corps, whose break 10 years ago with Col. William Mitchell precipitated a nation-wide uproar died late yesterday of preu- monia, General Menoher had been ill for some time following his retirement in 1926. The end came in St. Elizabeth’s hospital here. During the course of a long dis- tinguished army career he had served as battle commander of the Rainbow (Forty-second) division in France, and bore therefrom not only the dis- tinguished service medal, but also the decorations of France, Belgium and Italy. General Menoher is survived by his widow, Mrs. Elizabeth P. Menoher, of Washington, and three sons. He will be buried in Arlington cemeter$ at a date to be set later. Led Rainbow Division While the name of Charles Thomas Menoher was written imperishably in- to American military history as that of the battle commander in France of the Rainbow (Forty-second) division, the officer was to know far more vexing days after the war at home. The trouble developed when as chief of the Army air service he came to an open break with his principal assistant, Colonel William Mitchell, then a brigadier general. This clash, although temporarily smoothed over by John W. Weeks, then secretary of war, was the first uproar of the air service controversy which was to develop around Mitchell and lead to his arraignment before an Army court martial for a repetition of actions which had impelled Menoher to demand that his subordinate be re- lieved from duty as a disciplinary measure. General Menoher became head of the air service and asked for duty from France, and at a time when there already was apparent a smould- ering of the flame that later was to kind® the fires of contention. At the time of Menoher’s appointment, Secretary Weeks said he .had been selected “because he was a man of fine fighting record in France, a man of good judgment and level head, and a very capable executive.” He took charge of the air service | in January, 1919, and within a few months came to an open break with Mitchell, and asked of the secretary of war the removal of the officer. Shortly after this request had been, presented, Secretary Weeks on June 17, 1921, issued a formal statement in which he said Menoher “has with- drawn his recommendation for the relief of Mitchell at the request” of the Secretary of War. Was Artillery Officer The trouble continued and in Oct- ober he tendered his resignation from that position and asked for duty with with troops. Assigned to command the Hawaiian department, he again cegne into con- flict with Mitchell’s views. The gen- eral himself, however, refrained con- sistently from public discussion of his a abe with his former subordin- ate. General Menoher was born in Phil- adelphia, ‘Penn., March 20, 1862, He was graduated from We! int in 1886, from the Artillery School in 1894 and from the War College in 1907. Most of his Army service was with the artillery and it included active duty in both the Spanish-American war and the Philippine insurrection. At the entrance of the United ‘States into the World war, he was an artillery colonel, but was sent to France as a brigadier general, later to be promoted to the rank of major general and assigned to command the Rainbow division when Major General William A. Mann, its organ- izer as chief of the Militia Bureau and its first commanding officer, was un- able to endure the physical strain of the active battle days of the division in France.
