by you and the Judge advocate gem
erai.
your present recognition OF exist
ing evils Of the courts martial sys-
tenn Is strangely irreconciliable with
your published statement, no more
remote than March 10. In that state
ment of warm approval Of the exist
ing system, you seemed blind to de-
ficiency.
ION March 10 you were blind to
any deficiencies in the existing sys-
TEN; as indeed the evidence abund-
antly shows you have been deaf
throughout the war to complaints
about the injustice of the system.
Now. as yo: say, you did propose
certain legislation to the COMMITTEES
which they did not see tit to recon
mend for enactment. and which very
fortunately, did not become law.
can hardly believe that that bill, pre-
pared by the Judge advocate general
OF the army and submitted by you
was a bona fide effort to remedy thu
existing system, and the slightest
consideration of the bill will show
that had 1t been enacted into law Il
would have made the system more
reactionary, II possible, than 1t II
now.
