General Barry was very glad to hear President Roosevelt say at lunch that he would put in a good word for the Army War College in his annual report. Because the college’s work is confidential, they are never able to explain themselves or give reply to abuse heaped upon them. Barry also notes that he encloses a memorandum that he yesterday sent to the Chief of Staff of the Army, Colonel James Franklin Bell, and he has marked the section that he feels is relevant to what Roosevelt discussed at lunch.
