    York, 1939), I, 163-225. See also Ralph Eldin Minger, "Taft, Mac-
    Arthur, and the Establishment of Civil Government in the Philippines,"

    McCoy, Hugh L. Scott, James G. Harbord, Henry T. Allen, Frank
    Parker, Enoch L. Crowder, and John J. Pershing, in the Journal of the
    Military Service Institution, and in the following sources: Parker, The
    Old Army: Some Memories, 1872-1918; Carter, The American Army;
    Scott, Some Memories of a Soldier; Bisbee, Through Four American
    Wars: The Impressions and Experiences of Brigadier General William

    tions of General Nelson A. Miles (Chicago and New York, 1897);

    Richard C. Brown, "Social Attitudes of American Generals, 1898-1940,"
    (unpublished Ph.D. dissertation, University of Wisconsin, 1951). Brown
    points out that General Order 100, the Army's rule governing treatment
    of civilians in war zones, was a mixture of "humanitarianism and
    military sternness."
