Closing Week of
Mitchell Court May
Prove Sensational

Washington, Dec. 13.-(AP)-Deliv-
cry of summing-up arguments by OPP
posing counsel and the staging of a le-
gal battle to determine whether evil
dence heard will be accepted by the
court as a defense or mitigation of
sentence, stood out tonight as a sensa-
tional feature of this. the last week
of the courtmartial trial of Colonel
William Mitchell.
The prosecution plans to dispose of
its remaining witnesses, including sew
eral of the highest ranking officers in
the army, Wednesday, and unless the
program is altered by unforeseen de-
velopments the fight on evidence Will
begin at that time. Court observers
are certain that Representative Frank
r. Reid will demand that the evidence
be accepted as a complete defense and
that the government counsel will In
sist that it be considered only in miti-
cation.
The foundation of the defense's ar
gument in this connection will be its
contention that the truth of Colonel
Mitchell's charges against the war and
navyAiepartments' administration of
the nations air defense, which led to
his trial, has been proved, and that
truth is of itself defense. The pros
ecution, one the other hand, will in
sist that Colonel Mitchell has not prov
ed the truth of his charges and that
truth, even If proved, is not and never
has been defense under military law.

2S.-Whether Arthur r. Robinson,
recently appointed United States
Senator, will be candidate for the
short term nomination next spring
is still q mater of doubt today.
The Senator Tuesday addressed
two meetings at the Ninth District
Republican rally here, but not one
word did he say that would lead pol
itical observers to predict that he
would make the race.
Beyond renewing his pledge of
support to President Coolidge and
praising the administration Of Gov
ernor Jackson, in Indiana, the Sen
ator confined his remarks to praise
Of his colleague, James e. Watson
and of the Republican national adj
ministration.
Senator Watson also praised Sen
ator Robinson and said he was
proud to be associated with him. !"
Governor Jackson in a short
speech told of the reasons for the
appointment of Senator Robinson
and paid tribute to the late Senator
Ralston.
