GIRL SAVES HER GARTER
Police Patrol Driver 10 Given tho
Scare Of His Life in the
Rescue.

Oakland, Cal.-A garter that slipped
at the wrong moment nearly wrecked
Oakland's $4,000 patrol wagon!
The wagon was answering a hurry
call. At Twelfth street and Broad
way, in the center of the downtown
district, girl gOwned in silk and
furs started across the street. Half
way over she halted, turned pale and
made wild clutch for her knee.
Pedestrians shouted n warning, but
the girl was obliviOus. She stopped
over and began to tumble. The pa
troll wagon opened its siren, executed
fancy curve, missed the girl by m
inch, careened past a telephone pole
by a narrow margin and righted again.
Then only did the girl straighten
up, bring something blue into view and
continue modestly on her way. She
got the garter, but the patrol wagon
driver got the scare of his life.

ANSEll ON ARMY JUSTICE SYSTEM

Lieutenant Colonel Ansell, former
acting Judge advocate general of the
United States army, said before the in
vestigating committee of the American
Bar association that the existing army
system of justice was derived from the
days when common soldiers" were
the vassals Of the king rather than citi-
zens of the state, and declared that
1t was the natural result of such sys-
TEN that an officer caste should be
built up.
Declaring it a fact that the enlist
ed man did not receive the same con-
sideratiOn of his rights under the sys-
tenn that officers enjoyed, Colonel
Ansell argued that the only remedy
lay in writing into the law the guaran-
tees of the rights of the soldier. While
this is left to regulations to be pre-
scribed by the president, he said. It
cannot be effective. 1.-THE attitude of
the army" he added, has been intol-
