NO REVIEW IN PARIS

Washington, April Z. - Regulations
limiting General Pcrshing's authority
over court martial proceedings abroad,
to which the general objected, have been
removed. An amendment to general
order 81. of 1917, published today
by the War Department shows that
the language making mandatory on
the commanders recommendations Of
the acting judge advocate general in
France that sentences be set aside, dis
approved or modified has been stricken
out.
The order amended has played n part
in the military justice controversy.
After providing for the establishment
Of a branch Office in Paris of the judge
advocate generals Office, where all
court martial cases arising abroad
should be reviewed, it contained this
provision, drawn up during the in.

ance with the recommendations of the
acting judge advocate general (in
Paris)."
General Pershing protested to the
War Department that this language
took out of his hands control Of the
disciplinary system of the army abroad
and lodged final authority in the hands
of the acting judge advocate general. 1T
was pointed out also that the restriction
applied only to the American expedi-
tionary forces and not to department or
division commanders in the United
States.
