Baker Seeks Legislation
to Protect Soldiers on
Patrol Duty in u. S.
(By Associated Press.)


WASHINGTON, April 24.-Legisla-
ton to protect soldiers on patrol duty
in this country from assaults by civ
ilians is being sought by Secretary
Baker. In letters to the chairman of
the senate and house military commit
tees he urges an amendment to the
penal code providing for the trial of
such cases in federal courts.
During the spring and summer Of
last year." says Mr.. Baker. "a large
number of troops were scattered
throughout the country guarding i'm
portant structures or works necessa-
ry for the safety Of the nation. Nu-
merous assaults were made upon SEN
tries and in some communities con-
victions could not be secured on &C
count of local sentiment. When an
enlisted man is placed in a position
of danger the government should al
ford them all possible protection.
