RED CROSS TO OPEN
DRIVE ON NOV. L
Annual Roll Call Volunteers
Seek to Place WASH
ington First.

First place among cities of the East
was the goal set for Washington in
the ninth annual roll call of the Amer
lean Red Cross, which begins on No
vember Il, by leaders at a mass meet
ing of the volunteers for the District
Chapter of the Red Cross held yester-
day at its headquarters, 16 Jackson
place. The Capital City reached
fourth place in the last roll call.
Public utilities of the District are
assisting materially in the work of
distributing the membership cards,
and persons receiving them are urged
to fill them out promptly, Brig. Gen.
John A. Johnston, chairman of the
roll call, said. The Potomac Electric
Power Co, he said. is sending out AS
600 of the ships with its monthly bills,
the Washington Gas Light Co. 1000
and the Chesapeake and Potomac Tel
ephone Co. $4,000.
Miss Mabel Boardman, secretary of
the American Red Cross and vice
chairman of the local chapter, in a
short talk declared volunteer service
was the essential element of the Red
Cross work, and praised the spirit OF
the Washington chapter.
The Red Cross spent S3.577 ,916 dur
ing the fiscal year ending June 80
last in rendering service to disabled
war veterans, it was disclosed in the
annual report made public last night.

CAPITAL GETS TASTE
OF RADIO CONFUSION
NAA Broadcasts of Concerts on 435
Meters Conflict With WCAP
and WRC Programs.

Washington. which since the ar
rival of radio broadcasting has been
one of the cOuntrys few large "one-
Wave-length towns" appears to be on
the verge of losing that distinction
The debut in concert broadcasting
Of NAA, the naval radio station at
Arlington, last week has given listen
ers-in of the Capital for the first time
two simultaneous local radio pros grams,
and incidentally something to think
about.
To the owner of the small, non
seleCtive crystal set the change means
confusion and appointment. To the
owner of selectiVe receiver, either
crystal or tube, the dual broadcasting,
Judging from the general run of com
ment, is an agreeable development of
the Capitals broadcasting activities.
The extent to which NAA will con
tinue to occupy the air with concerts
has not been definitely determined,
but, having equipped it's station for
high powered studio and remote con-
troll transmission, it is considered quite
likely that the Navy's plant will
broadcast frequently when the oppor-
tunity permits on it's own wave length
Of 435 meters.
eventually both OF the established
Washington stations will be awarded
exclusive wave lengths instead of the
joint one they now divide. The De
partment of Commerce, it is learned,
looks with favor on assigning separate
wave lengths to both WRC and WCAP,
should any plan for this division be
found. At present the supply of wave
lengths is exhausted.

CIVIL JUDGES POWERLESS
TO REVIEW MITCHELL CASE
Supreme Bench Decisions Declare No Appeal Can Be
Made From Judgment of Military Court Legally
Constituted to Try Member of Army or Navy.

time there was a provision of law pro-
hibiting officers from one branch of
the military service trying any one in
another branch, and it was on this
point alone that the Government lost
the question of jurisdiction. The
court was without authority, and the
Supreme Court said that to legally try
him 1t must be legally created, point
ing out that Congress was the one to
say what was a legal court, using the
following language:
The question of who shall act on
courts martial for the trial of Of
tenders belonging to the various
branches Of the Army of the United
States Is one entirely for Congress to
determine"
The Supreme Court even said that
the fact that the officer was tried was
not a waiver Of his rights, for If H.
legally constituted it could not try
him, and therefore it had no jurisdic-
ton.
In the case Of Swain VS.. United
States, at 165 L. S. 553. the court said:
Military Court Supreme.
"If the court-martial has jurisdiction
over the subject matter of the charge
against the defendant and of the per
son, or II the consent of the defendant
give such Jurisdiction, the writ Of
habeas corpus will afford no relief, for
generally, in such q case, an error
committed by a Court-nlartial regular
~ organized and with full Jurisdiction
is not assailable before civil courts"
Persons familiar with both the civil
and military law and procedure point
out there is no doubt as to the 1uris-
diction, that is, the authority of the
court trying Col. Mitchell. The Su-
preme Court, they point out, has said
the matter is one for Congress to de-
eide. and Congress has laid down the
matter Of convening courts martial.
All the members of the court are Of
ticers of the regular establishment, as
also is Col. Mitchell, and for that rea-
son there is little doubt as to the juris-
diction OF the court ordered by the
Commander-in-chie
For these reasons, also, there is
opinion that the Court Of Claims, with
the rule so clearly laid down by the
United States Supreme Court before
it, could not review the matter should
1t come to it on a question OF loss of
pay.

for the fixing of prices cannot be

never go to war over the price of any

tional ill-will.

THE question naturally arises as
to what we, nation great both as a
consumer and a producer, who have
so far resolutely refused either to set
up such combinations in our products
or to allow our citizens to create
them, should do in these circum-
stances. We cannot allow this situa-
ton to go unheeded. There are sew
1ral alternative courses of action.
1--WE could resolutely set ourselves
to reduce consumption in every ar
ticle that is 50 controlled. We could
stimulate the use and manufacture
Of substitutes. We could induce our
citizens to go abroad to other regions
and establish rival productions. We
could prohibit the extension of credit
to countries where such controls are
maintained. We could request the
rest of the consuming world to join
with us in these campaigns. 1t
might be that such activities would
bring about an everlasting lesson to
the whole world. But this is trade
war and we want to live in trade
peace.
"I am convinced that the sound
solution does not lie in any of the
alternatives have outlined: they are
all in the nature of last resorts.
believe the solution does lie in the
willingness Of statesmen throughout
the world to recognize the conse-
quences of government controlled
production and price, and to meet
the issue in the only way it should
be met-that is. by abandonment of
all such governmental action"
