With Mnjor General Hush U Scott, Chlef of-Staft of the Army, reaching; retire ment age this month, speculation ling begun at the War Department as to whether he will be retained on active service under the war-time emer gency provisions of the law and con tinue in office. It is known that General Scott would welcome an active command in the field. In view of his distinguished services on many occasions and the known high regard for him entertain ed by President.Wilson and Secretary Baker, It appears probablo that an ef fort will be made to gratify his wishes, should it be determined to re lieve him of his staff post. The pressure upon the chief-of staff will become increasingly heavy as American forces abroad are en larged and when they are holding a portion of the western front great physical vigor will be required to en dure the strain.
