SENATOR’S COMMENT
“AMERICANS TERRIBLY , SHOCKED.” NEW YORK, November 23. The Washington correspondent of the United Press of America says that General Patton’s attack is expected to weigh heavily when the Senate considers his pending promotion to the permanent rank of major-general which President Roosevelt recently recommended. Senator Edwin Johnson, a member of the Military Affairs Committee, declared: “Americans are terribly shocked. A slap on the wrist won’t suffice, and unless the army cleans up the Patton situation, the Military Affairs Committee will' be compelled to make a complete investigation.”
