M. Duval, Condemned by
Court-Martial, Replies to
Death Sentence

Paris, May 16-Death for M. Du-
val, who was director of the sup
pressed Germanophile newspaper.
Bonnet Rouge, was the finding of the
court-martial here yesterday. NJ.
Duval was on trial for treason.
The six other defendants were SEN
fenced to imprisonment for terms
ranging from two to ten years. Ev-
cry decision of the court-martial
was voted unanimously.
NJ. Marion, assistant manager of
Bonnet Rouge. received ten years
imprisonment at hard labor.
Jacques Landau. a reporter on the
newspaper, was given eight years at
hard labor.
Goldsky was sentenced to eight
years at hard labor and military
degradation.
M. Joucla, a reporter. was given
five years at hard labor
NJ. Vercasson was sentenced to two
years in prison and fined 5000
francs, with sentence suspended.

the Ministry of the Interior and
head of the secret service, was given
two years in prison and fined 1000
francs.
heard Colonel Voyer read the death
sentence. He then said:
THE judgment of man often is err
roneous. Posterity will judge wheth-
er l am guilty of treason"
Before the verdict was reached NJ
Duval in an impassioned speech had
declared that none of the accused
was in any way an accomplice OF
his. He declared he was ready to
face any verdict serenely.
NJ. Marion seemed to be relieved
by the end of the strain, while Ian
dau was in state of utter collapse
Goldsky maintained the same sneer-
ing attitude which characterized him
throughout the trial. Leymarie, ad-
dressing the court, said he had been
sufficiently punished for any lack oi
foresight he had shown.
Leymarie apparently was overcome
with emotion. He told the Associat-
ed Press he expected at least the
same treatment as that accorded
Vercasson, whose sentence was sus-
pended. Il am a ruined man." he
said.
Leymarie's condemnation aroused
greater public interest and discus
sion than. did the death sentence ot
Duval, as public minds naturally
connected his sentence with the
forthcoming trial of Louis Malvy, ex,
Minister of the Interior, who was
formerly Leymaries chief.
Attorney Guillain. pleading yester-
day in behalf of Leymarie, contend
ed that the accused was blameless
He denied emphatically that Ley
marie was a gambler and had play ed
poker with Louis Malvy, former
Minister of the Interior, and others

Addressing the court, the lawyer
said:

series of training camps for reserve
officers opened yesterday for a four
teen weeks course, with an estimat-
ed attendance of between 1900

borne out, the latest camps will add
almost 10000 names to the Army's
commissioned list, and will raise to
$1,000 the total number of officers
obtained from this course.
Twenty-four camps were opened,
the attendance at each ranging from
600 to 1900 men.
Disposition of the graduates from
the camps opened already has been
virtually settled. The three infantry
replacement camps will receive o.
600 each, the machine gun replace
ment camp, 1000, and the field ar
tillery camp, 1000. The tank corps,
