COURt MARTIAL WILL PROCEED Counsel For the Air Of ficer Sought to Have the Charges Thrown Out Under Ruling. Washington, Oct. 29.—(4>)—CoL Mitchell's plea of immunity from mil itary trial on the charges pending against him was overruled today in ihe general court martial proceedings against him. Tiie court's law officer ruled that when Colonel Mitchell charged war amid navy department officials with “criminal” ami “almost treasonable” conduct, in administering the air serv ices, he committed an offense against military discipline and could• not take refuge from punishment in the con stitutional guarantee of free speech as be had sought to do. Representatives Reid of 111., coun sel for Col. Mitchell, then moved that all the charges be stricken out. He said the court’s record failed to show that the commanding officer accused had ordered the charges against the .defendant investigated, or had him self 'investigated the charges as re quired by court martial regulations. This opinion, the effect of which merely was to sustain the jurisdiction of, the court, and make it possible to I proceed with the trial, was approved by the court itself, after a short eon * saltation in secret. ! The law officer, Col. Blanton Win ship, gave his opinion after the court, ‘the prosecution and the defense had agreed to leave the point to him, but in rendering his decision he asked that specific court approval be given. An effort lo have the court vote on that opinion in public was blocked by~ an objection by Brig. Gen. Frank R. Mc- Coy, commander of the 3rd Infantry brigade, Fort Sam Houston. Tex.. Col. Mitchell's last station. The court then retired and took a secret vote, returning after only a short interval to announce its approval. The ruling applied specifically only to that Specification of the cimrges which applied to Co! MitchoU's first £tfti Antonio statement, the eondfiet of the-air services, bi* it was in the nature Os a test, and one by one the court then proceeded in rapid oixler to overrule Co! Mitchell’s ob jections to its right to try him on the remaining counts. “If. Colonel MiteheT has been guil ty of any offense,’’ Mr, Reid said, “it should have been charged by his com manding officer at that time. Major General Ernest Hinds, in charge of tiie Eighth Corps Area of San An tonio. “The record does not show that General Hinds or Brigadier General Rockenbac’h, commanding the district of Washington, thought any crime had been co'inmited, “From where, then, does this strange power conic that Stretches out over these commands? It does net come from the officers under whom Co! Mitchell served in or in whose jurisdiction he Is at pres ent.” . * Co! . Sherman Moreland, for the prosecution, repied that it was not required under the court martial reg ulations that either General Hinds or Genera’ Rockenbaeh actually bring the charges. j “This is a presidential court,” said | Col. Moreland. “There is no re quirement that the regulations shall . he carried out explicitely, so long as | the substance is there.” The charges assigned by an officer in the Judge Advocate General’s office at Washington, and Co! Moreland, sa'd the President had designated that officer to act as accuser, “as the President has a right to do as com mander-in-chief of the army and navy.” The reference to the “presidential court” brought Mr. Reid to his feet. “I hate to think this is a case where necessity knows no law,” he said “What strange power, is this we are feeling? This is an abnormal case indeed. “You don’t mean to tell me that the I President himself had these charges I preferred. The trial officer does not know what he says unless my ears have deceived me. The President did not make these charges.” The defense attorney declared that in any event he knew of no provision of the court martial regulations “that give the President or the Judge Advo cate General a right to bring charges.” Most women look ahead into the sweet buy;and-buy.
