firing one shot. A right swing that
started from the shoestrings made
another change his mind. Several
short jabs put the other to flight.
Two of the robbers got away in

SECRETARY WEEKS
ASKS PROMOTION
OF ARMY OFFICERS
Requests Action by Presi-
dent, Holding Two
Places Open.

Secretary Weeks yesterday rec
commended to President Harding
that he make promotions Of army
officers now held up on account Of
appeals Of other officers slated for
compulsory retirement or discharge
whose places would be filled by
these promotions, but that two
places be held open pending the
action of the civil courts in the
cases of two officers who have
asked judicial aid to prevent their
compulsory retirement.
Should the courts uphold the ap-
peals the two officers concerned
will not be retired and in addition
Secretary Weeks will ask for leg
islation that will restore to the ae-
tive list all other officers who have
refused to accept compulsory re-
tirement or discharge and whose
cases are pending on appeal to the
President. This Legislation would
create extra numbers" which
means that the officers saved from
retirement would resume their
present relative places on the ac-
tive list without disturbing the
status of officers promoted to the
vacancies apparently created by the
orders for the compulsory retire.
ment of the extra numbers"
The action of Secretary Weeks is
expected to stay a pending action
to have the Secretary of War de-
clared in contempt of court for or
dering that promotions be made TO
fill the places of officers who have
appealed to the civil courts to pEe-
vent their discharge or retirement.
The Secretary of War has given in
structions to have the cases carried

States il necessary. in order to de-
termine the legality of the pro-
ceedings under which officers have
been slated for discharge or re-
tirement under a new army statute.

Mrs. OrthlUein Fears
Trial by Women

CHICAGO. May 16.-Mrs. Cora
Isabelle Orthwein appeared in court
today and heard for the second time
that her trial for the killing of
Herbert P. Ziegler was postponed
for a week. Mrs. Orthwein's facial
expression, her hurried whispered
consultation with her attorney and
her other actions indicated that the
continuance was displeasing.
Mrs. Orthwein, it is said, breads
the continuances because 1t may
mean a jury of women to hear her
case, and Mrs. Orthwein does not
want women jurors, It is understood.
although her attorney has agreed
to such q jury.
II Is probable that mandamus
proceedings will be filed this week
asking the supreme court to find
whether jury service is a right or
a duty for women. On this decision
will rest the question of whether

plea of self-defense shall be be COM
