DEATH SENTENCE IS
 IMPOSED IN CASE 'OF ARMY DESERT|ON
German-Born Soldier At tempted to Return to Ma tive Country-Findings
 to Be Overruled

Washington, November 2A'-The death penalty has been imposed upon an eu l.listed man of the American army. who is of German birth, on his conviction of assertion. It was indicated today at the war department that the findings of the Icourt-martiaI would be overruled andssen- tence committed to a long term Of i!n- prisonment
 The soldier was stationed at Panama and there appears to be little doubt that after his desertion he endeavored 10
 make his way to Germany. presumably for military service there. He-ss was charged after his apprehension, however,
 only with desertion and the question Of
 his intention to join the enemy forces
 was not developed at his trial.
 It has not been the custom in any
 army. even in. time of war, to impose the death penalty for desertion unless the
 act was in the face of the enemy or unless there was evidence to show that
 the, purpose of the offender was .smore
 than merely an attempt to evade military
 service. The commanding officer. of the
 Panama garrison recommended the court
 be overruled and a term of infprison-
 ment be substituted for execution be-
 fore a firing squad. Y M

 Miss Lucy Burns, vice chairman of the woplan's party; Mrs Lawrence Lewis of Philadelphia and Miss Hat tie Kruger of Buffalo, who are said to be in a weakened condition as the result of their hunger strike, were assisted into the courtroom today. but it was decided that their condition did not warrant parole.
 The prisoners contended that they had been ill-treated at the workhouse and should be confined in the District of Columbia jail. Efforts were made by counsel for the women to bring before the court their charges of bad treatment but Judge Waddill ruled this unnecessary in view of his decision that they should be removed from the workhouse.
