The dispatch from Washington tell- iing of the recommendation for. his appointment to the rank of Major General is as follows: Distinguished honor came t6 Brig. Gen. Johnson Hagood of South Caro lina, today in the announcement by Acting Secretary of War Dwight F. Davis that after consultation with Secretary of War Weeks it had been decided to recommend to the Presi dent the - promotion of Gen. Hagood to be a major general'from August End to fill the vacancy in that grade created by retirement of Major Gen. Bamuel D. Sturgis, now in command b'f the Third Army Corps area. Promoted Over Older Men. The point about Gen. Hagood’s pro motion is that he is given the highest present active grade in the U. S. army at the comparatively early age of 52 years, whereas there were a number of officers eligible for the aip- pointment. His selection over all these older men is a notable recogni tion' of his efficiency and soldierly merit. ‘ - Gen. Hagood was bom at Orange burg June 16, 1873. He secured an appointment to West Point and on his graduation he \yas assigned' to the coast artillery, in which arm he has Served .continuously with intervals of several years as a member of the general staff. In the World War he was first commanding'officer of the 7th Coast Artillery regiment, then chief of staff of the service of supply In France and commanding general of its advance sectrdn^uhd finally com manding general of- the Sixty-sixth Artillery brigade. . - * For this war work. Gen.Hagood re ceived from his own government the distinguished service medal with Citation of “ex;epti'jnal]y meritorious and distinguished services, ability for organization, energy, and sound judg ment.” France decorated him with the Le gion' of Honor and Italy with the .Crown of Italy.

Kmbruced In thin latest Bulck offer ing are additional power and. strength, .the newest engineering aefflevements designed to give even longer motor car life, the maximum Ip comfort and safety, besides new b-cuty and refinements of design, and finish representing the latest skill in body craftsmanship. And in face of these material and costly improvements lower prices are An nounced throughout the entire line of Standard hnd Master Sixes., The announcement and the »how- ing* of the better BUicks silenced the rumors that Bulck would abandon the valve-in-head for another type engine which would permit of cheap er construction. The same principles that were inaugurated by Bulck 31 year* ago and which hay* made It the leader In the Industry have been adhered to throughout. The mechanical improvements in troduced would have been consid ered impossibilities only a year ago. They represent the work of Bulck research and engineering staffs con stantly striving for betterments. H The new prices liktwlse represent achievements of the engineering, production . and business depart ments of the Buick. organisation, and are in no small measure due-to the phenomenal approval of Buicks by the public. This latter factor has resulted in continuously increasing sales With the attendant possibili ties of economies in purchasing and t production. The complete line includes Ifr-ntod- Ms. six in the Standard Six and ten in the Master Six class. In all-cases the distinctive Buick lines have been continued, with refinements such as the rounding of radiator lines and the addition of streamline ipouldings. All are finished In new and beautiful tones at durable Duco. Some of the model* have Duo-tone Duco flnteb la itetlnctlvt wmblna- tions. AH closed bodies are by Fish er and are upholstered in quality plush. Buick has always, been noted for its sealed chassis, which -prevents dirt or water entering any of the moving parts. Now it has addAd an air cleaner, oil Alter and gasoline Strainer. These, combined with the rftandard Buick construction, prac tically eliminate the possibility of any foreign substance entering the engine or moving parts of the chassis and*, consequently, minimize service requirements and add to the life of the car. Because these three new units have no moving parts, there is noth ing to get out of adjustment. .Tbfey require no power—In fact are thor oughly automatic, and require only occasional cleaning to remove the dirt'and grime gathered from the &lr, fuel and oil. The above illustration shows the Standard Six five-passenger,~ two- door sedan.
