A statement by the Russian embassy
summarizing the advices says. in part:
Gen. Andogsky, referring to the
taking OF the town of Sterlitamak,
called it great victory and points
out that owing to the taking of this
town the situation Of the bolshe-
Wiki on the Orenburg front becomes
critical. The Siberian offensive,
having commenced to the south of
Ufa, is termina ting in a brilliant
victory at Sterlitamak and cuts of
the rear Of the bolshevik troops. One
can henceforth count on the occupa-
ton of the Volga region by the
Siberian troops in spring.
"On April 8, the occupying Of the
town of Belebey was reported, as we'll
as the taking of numbers of prisoners
and other trophies. After the recap
ture of the town of Sterlitamak, the
Siberian troops advanced rapidly and
the enemy experienced great losses.
There were captured great numbers
Of prisoners, rapid firing guns and ten
heavy guns. The victorious Siberian
troops are ten miles from the Vot-

FINDS FAULTS IN
MILITARY COURTS
Evils Result When Country
Faces Emergency, Maj.
R. A. Stone Says.

Existing evils in American courts
martial are not so much the fault Of
the military justice system itself as
necessary when the country faces an
emergency, according to Maj. R A.
Stone Of the inspector generals de-
before the military committee of the
American Bar Association.
Maj. Stone told the eminent lawyers
and jurfsts who are making inquiry
into the administration of military JUS
tee that to ask officers. so worn with
work in preparing men for battle that
they fall asleep when even Ave min
lutes are available for a nap. to devote
an undue amount of time to two or
three recalicitrants out Of the 260 or
more men whom they are whipping
into shape, is to ask the impossible.
The result of this situation is too many
trials by courts-martial.
Some Disadvantages Apparent.
The advantages and disadvantages of
the present system had apparently
been most carefully weighed by this
officer. who is able to view the mat
ter from three different angles and
tion. Te began his military career
as an enlisted man during the Spanish
war and rose to be a sergeant. He
became a commissioned officer in this
war, commanding a company. bat
talon and depot brigade and is now
staff oncer. On the other hand,
during all the period of his civilian
and expects to continue as such.
1t was brought out that about 900
men passed through the company he
commanded and during his period as
q captain he called no general courts,
no special courts and but two sum-
mary courts. He definitely recon-
mended q greater participation by
lawyers in courts.martial, but de-
clared it dangerous to lie t the legai
mind control a distinctly military en-
terprise. He also recommended the
deprivation Of the reviewing authori-
cial to the accused, and in this most
Of the officers no have appeared so far
have conucurred.
The subject Of employing juries of
enlisted men came up today and re-
garding this Maj. Stone is convinced
that there are two classes of offenders
who would suffer far more at the
hands of such a jury than at court
of commissioned officers. These are
barracks thieves and moral perverts.
Capt. Loring R. Hoover, retired, for
meriy in the infantry. and for ten
years practicing lawyer. was the
first ofiicer to appear. He presented
opinions and recommendations In the
form of a written brief. He made
plain his conviction that the mainten-
ance of discipline requires neither ex-
cessive nor exemplary punishments
and that exact justice" regarded as
Of lesser Importance by some of the
officers. who have appeared, ts, in
the final analysis, the best promoter
Of fine discipline.
