this no longer holds good. A DELHI
crate policy of destruction applied to
creameries and cooperative stores,
with the burning of farmhouses. crops

izing of farm workers and the paraly-

COURTMARTIAL
SENTENCES CUT
Severity of Punishments Will Be
Reduced.
(Ry Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, Feb. 3.-Reduction
in the number of dishonorable dis
charges from the army and a grad
ing down in the severity of courts
martial sentences are expected by the
Judge advocate generals department
to result from an executive order linn
iting military peace-time punishment,
which goes into effect tomorrow. The
order follows wide agitation over
court martial penalties during the
war period.
A memorandum from the president,
attached to the order, directs that
maximum punishment and dishonor-
able discharges be imposed only in
aggravated cases. This is expg Cted
to have more effect in reducing pen
alties, it was stated, than the actual
order, which reduces punishments for
2t different offenses under the mill
tary code.
The old maximum of 10 months
confinement for desertion by men less
than one. year in service has been re-
duced to one year. and in cases of
more than months service, from two
and one-half years to two years. The
period of absence for which desertion
penalties can be imposed is increased
from 30 to so days
The maximum penalty for fraudu-
lent enlistment has been reduced from
one years Imprisonment to six
months. The greatest reduction of
maximum confinement is for assault
without deadly weapons which was
five years, reduced to one year. The
maximum where weapons are used
still is five years.
The maximum for obtaining under
false pretenses money or property val
ued at $50 or more is reduced from
five years to three years.
The executive order will not result
in a radical reduction of penalties
Col. c. A. Kreger acting judge advo-
cate, declared. "Punishments for Of
lenses in the army have been based
since 1914 on a consensus of those
fixed by different state laws for sim
liar civil offenses. The executive or
der reduces maximum penalties for
such offenses as fraudulent enlistment
desertion and other peculiarly mill
tary in nature, but maximum penal
ties seldom have been awarded for
these offenses.

ing attention to the articles of war
which provide for a grading down
from maximum penalties where cases

ARMY REDUCTION
APPEARS CERTAIN
Appropriation Will Provide for Only
10000 Men.
(sy Associated Press)

wAsHINGToN Feb "A definite
step toward reduction of the regular
army 10 10000 men was taken today
when the house approved an appFo-
priation sufficient only for the MAIN
tenance OF a force of that size during
the fiscal year beginning July /.
The action was taken after attempts
had failed 10 amend the army appro-
priation bill TO provide for $4,000
enlisted men, and to decrease the
number of officers from $4,000 to ap-
proxlmately 5000.
The instant the section of the bill
appropriating funds for the pay Of
enlisted men during the coming fiscal
year was reached a dozen representa-
tlves were on their feet clamoring for
recognition. Amendments came pour
Ing in, and for an hour members re-
vived the small army versus large
army debate that has enlivened many
a session of congress. The net result,
however, was success for the efforts
of the appropriations committee to
keep the measure practically intact,
all amendments being voted down ex-
cept one by Representative Johnson,
republican, South Dakota, authorizing
the discharge from the army of youths
under Is years of age on their appli-
cation or at the request of their par
ents or guardians. At the request of
Representative Wingo. democrat, Ar-
kansas. the house voted to grant such
lads honorable discharges.
The appropriation bill carries as
amended $72,67S.659 for the pay of en-
listed men during the IL months be-
ginning July /. This amount Is suf
ficient for force of 10000, according
TO Representative Anthony, Kansas
chairman Of the appropriations sub
committee. which framed the measure
Representative Green of Vermont, q
republican member of the military
committee, introduced an amendment
to increase the amount to $S4,s ,909
enough. he said. for the pay of 175,OOC
men. 1t was voted down, AS to IS.
