The company is now enlisted 70 fun

tail the recruiting Of another full com.

he can secure the men necessary. as
the new company will be a radio COM

in Washington studying radio-teIeEraphy,
who would be glad Of chance 10 ac-

The court has decided in favor OF the
government and ordered the DISCHARGE
Of the soldier from custody upon writ
of habeas corpus The court does not
clearly decide the point as to whether
an enlisted man in the army can, under
any circumstances, be subject 10 a poll
tax. although its opinion dearly leans in
that direction.
II is assumed. however. that enlisted
men of the army, being TO some extent
sui turis, can establish some sort Of a
residence or domicile outside OF an army
post where stationed. In the New
Hampshire case the soldier had not
established any such outside residence,
but. while his original domiCile was In
New York State. he had married 4
woman who was a resident and in
habitant OF New Hampshire, and be
maintained his wife in a home at Ports
mouth, which he visited as often as the
army regulations permitted
It is believed that this is as strong a
