JOLTS REPUBLICANS
Secretary Baker Shows How
General AnseIl ExOnerated
Colonel Deeds.

OOAOAAGA OCCOSs
Washington, d. c., Aug. 1S.-
Secretary of War Baker has re-
quested the House sub-commit-
teen investigating aircraft pro-
ductiOn during the war to in
clude in its record the report of
Gen. S. 7. AnseIl, formerly ac-
ting Judge Advocate General of
the Army, recommending that
Col. E. A. Deeds, of Dayton, O.,
former chief of the Production
Division of the aircraft section
Of the War Department, be not
made the subject of a court
martial.
This request was Secretary's
Bakers answer to a demand
from Representative Frear OF
Wisconsin, chairman of the sub
committee, as to why GoEonel
Deeds conduct had not beer
made the subject of a court-mar-
tial inquiry.
When Judge Hughes report
was made, Secretary Baker ex-
planned to the committee, he d.
rected that his suggestion re-
lating to Colonel Deeds be made
the subject of special inves-
tigation by General AnseIl, who
convened a board of review for
the purpose, and Colonel Deeds
tranactions as head of the Air
craft Production Division were
subjected to minute investiga-
tion.
After reviewing Col. Deeds
conduct, General Ansell closed
his report to Secretary with this
language:
"The conclusion of this office
(the Judge Advocate Generally
is, therefore, that Col. Edward
Deeds should not be tried by
court-martial on account of any
of the transactions discussed in
this memorandum"
General Ansell, whose recon-
mendations that Colonel Deeds
be not court-martialed but rath-
er commended for patriotic
service, recently resigned from
the army and has been retained
as counsel by the House sub
committee to investigate the
War Departments expenditures
overseas. He viii go abroad with
that committee, of which Repre-
sentative Royal G. Johnson (Re-
publican) of South Dakota is
chairman.
