Among the many instances related
to the Senate Committee by General
Ansell, were the following:
An American soldier, protesting
that he was i'll and physically unable
to obey, was charged with refusing to
obeyt order to drill. sTo-fthis he
pleaded guilty; the death penalty was
imposed: the military authorities in
France insisted upon his execution
and the man was saved only by Exc
cutive Clemency.
A soldier in a camp in this country
went, without leave, to the bedside
Of his dying father and returssed to
duty voluntarily as soon as his father
died. The court-martial ordered the
death penalty and the sentence would
doubtless have been carried out but
for interference from Washington.
A young soldier, who had been in
the army but a few days, was sen
fenced to 40 years Imprisonment be-
cause Of his refusal to give up q pack
age of cigarettes to a second-lieut-
enant who happened to be his super
Tor officer. In referring to the mat
ter General Ansell called the affair
a company row" and indicated that
the officer was practically as much to
blame as the soldier.
Charged with having a pass in his
possession, a soldier was convicted by
court-martial. and sentenced to dis
honorable discharge, forfeiture Of
pay, and Imprisonment for a period
of ten years, which was later reduced
to three years.
A soldier who absented himself
without leave was upon conviction by
court-martial. sentenced to dishonor-
able discharge, forfeiture of pay, and
40 years Imprisonment.
For going home without leave to
see his wife and sick baby, who were
in destitute circumstances. a soldier
was sentenced to Imprisonment for a
period of Is years, which was later
reduced to three years.
AS a remedy for such extraordinary
General Ansell urged, at
the hearing. the passage of a bill
drawn by Senator Chamberlain Civ
ing the Judge Advocate General the
power of review of cOurts-martials.
"The sentences imposed for slight
offenses by the courts-martials have
every sense of justice" said
General Ansell, "They have reached
the heights of injustice. The SEN
fences in many instances bore no rea-

SOY BEANS.

The Soy bean is a wonderful plant.
1t is a greater soil builder than peas
and makes as good hay as Alfalfa. 1t
will grow on any of our soils and is
very hardy, adapting to both dry and
wet weather, and is a much surer
crop than peas. This plant is being
extensively and successfully grown
in many counties of Miss. IazOo
counties has been growing this crop
for four years and so general has it
become that the motto for that coun-
ty now is "Plant Soy beans in every
row of corn"
This is one of the peculiar things
about the Soy bean. You can plant
them in the drill with the corn and
make just as many beans as if there
was no corn in the row and the corn
will also make just as well as if there
was no beans planted there. If you
doubt the wisdom Of planting Soy
beans in this county talk to Mr.. C. c.
Provine the very capable member of
the board from beat l..
This is no experiment. am tell
ing you what | know to be true and
every farmer in the county should
plant Soy beans this year. The rea-
son / have not advocated this earlier
was because the seed were high and
hard to obtain. Last week | located
a car in North Carolina and after ex-
planning the matter to the Grenada
Bank this institution was good enough
to order a car load of these beans and
is going to offer them to the farmers
of Grenada county at cost. These
beans will not cost over $3.50 per
bushel and this is from soc to $1.O0
cheaper than we have been able to
get them anywhere else.
Now please take note of this and
lose no time. One man has already
ordered Is bushels, and there is only
500 bushels in the car.
The Soy bean is one of our best
soil builders, it makes an excellent
hay also the best of silage and planted
in the same row with corn will pro-
duce more hog feed than any other
combination that you a get.
Call at my Office ar write me and
list your order and will notify you
when the beans arrive.

sonable relationship to the offences
committed" he added. Continuing
he said, "For 40 years the army has
been cursed with red tape in its-couft-
martial proceedings Terrible in
Justices. have been inflicted upon
small Offenders The whole system
is wrong. l realize that I am ar
raigning an institution to which l
belong, but l ana doing so that ample
Justice may be done to men in the
ranks. For the sake of our men
and their families we must put an end
to this cruel system, and we must do
it at once.N
An interesting phase of the matter
of. War-D Department action was
brought out at the hearing by one of
the New Jersey Senators who manag-
ed to bring in the matter Of the ex-
t~raordinary leniency displayed by
Secretary Baker toward the conscien-
tious directors who have recently
been pardoned out Of prison, given
honorable discharges, back pay, and
wearing apparel; whereas the boys
who were ready and willing to go and
fight and die if necessary for their
country, have, in many 4eases, a. re-
lated by General Ansell, been sen
fenced to long terms of Imprisonment
for seemingly minor ofenses.
While, technically at. least, the war
is not ended and we therefore refrain
from criticism of army methods, we
cannot but. feel that General .Ansell
has rendered the American people an
invaluable service by frank and
courageous statements and recommen-
dations on this subject; and there can
be no doubt that the members of the
Senate Military Committee, and in
deed all other Members of Congress
as well, will. as a result of these rev.
Citations. be flooded with requests and
demands from American citizens
throughout the entire country, that
legislation be Immediately passed
which will not only insure reason
able and fair treatment for all mill
tary ~offenses hereafter committed.
but which will also mitigate, as far
as is nov possible, n sentences
heretofore imposed by court-martial
are not fairly justified by the
OffenSeS committed.

Sweet Potato Contract.
There lis. a serious movement on
foot to get a curing plant for sweet
potatoes located in Grenada: If the
promoters of this enterprise were as
sured that a sufficient acreage would
be planted to this crop, feel sure
that work on the. potato house would
begin. l am therefore calling
on the farmers for An expression. Do
you wish to grow sweet potatoes
either for the open market or would
you prefer to contract at 75c per
bushel at harvest time? In answer
ing please state how many acres. you
would agre> to grow and whether or
not you wish to contract.
Vaccinate Your Hoxs.
This is the most dangerous time of

outfits and serum on hand for

CAUSED ASENSATlON THROUGHOUT
The COUi

Brig. Gen. Samuel T. Ansell, Act
ing judge Advocate General of the
United States Army, has just caused
a nation wide sensation by his recit-
al, before the Senate Committee on
Military Affairs, Of certain astound-
ing facts regarding sentences i'm
posed by courts-martial during the
war period.
"Some of these sentences" he
stated, shave reached the very height
of injustice, bearing no reasonable
relationship to the offense commit
ted"
General Ansell also stated that the
methods of the American court-mar-
tial are much harsher than those of
the armies of Great Britain, France
or other countries except Russia,
Prussia and Spain.

not get anything to eat hardly. There
