FL 0T BIST GVEN WAR UNT Tribute to College Founder Presented by Carnegie Corporation. In commemoration of his services as Secretary of War, which included establishment of the Army War Col- lege, the War Department has in- stalled a marble bust of the late Elibu Root in the rotunda of the War College, it was announced today. The bust, presented to the War College by the Carnegie Corp. as a tribute to the founder of the college and of the War Department general staff, is the work of Earle Fraser. Root assumed the office of Secre- tary of War under President McKin- ley on August 1, 1899, shortly after the end of the Spanish War, and econtinued in the post under Presi- dent Roosevelt until February, 1904. He brought about creation of the War College in 1901 to meet the need for a comprehensive plan of military instruction and as a step toward crea- tion of a general staff. The college first was located at 22 Jackson place and later was moved to its present location at Washington Barracks, now Fort Humphreys. As soon as the War College was founded a bill providing for the gen- eral staff was placed before Congress, and it became a law in 1903. First selections for the new general staff Corps were made the same year. The first four officers selected were Maj. Goethals and Capts. March, Dickman and Pershing, all of whom were to figure prominently in the history of the Army. “Prom the time of the establish- ment of the college to 1918 the char- acter and scope of military instruc- tion in the United States Army re- ceived a very substantial advance as a result of the innovations of Mr. Root,” the War Department said. “In the World War the many military leaders who had received that train- ing found themselves confronted with almost every phase of the art and science of war, and the results of their leadership formed a creditable proof of the value of that training.” Mercury in Thermometer, Fahrenheit, German physicist, was the first to use mercury instead of alco- bol in thermometers. King Peter 1I of Yugoslavia displayed keen interest in the dashboard of a new model automobile during his visit to the exposition at Belgrade. Arrow points to the young King. —A. P. Photo.
