Many Generals To
J
Lose Rank
WASHINGTON, Dec. 5—Stars
will fall from the shoulders of
three hundred brigadier generals
during December and January un
der the army program of rank re
duction that got underway with
Japan’s defeat.
During December one hundred
fifty will be reduced and during
January a like number will be re
duced.
The names of those affected
were withheld in accordance with
the army policy to inform the men
involved by director orders, rather
than have them learn of the ac
tion affecting their career from
other sources.
A number of generals are ex
pected to retire, and those found
to have physical disabilities will
retain their temporary wartime
rank.
Ideas unrecorded are like water
stored in a sieve.
