readjustment of speculative accounts

COOLIDGE MAY
AID MITCHELL

Despite the veil of secrecy
thrown about the status Of the
Mitchell case by the War Depart
ment. it was learned that the vol
luminous findings would be turned
over to the Judge Advocate Gen
eral of the Army today or tomor-
row by the Board of Review, which
has approved the drastic sentence.
Little time now will be lost in
laying the. case before President
Coolidge. He has issued instruc-
tons that he desires War Depart
ment red tape to be cut as much
as possible in expeditfng the case
to his desk.
Tha Judge Advocates handling
of the case will be as perfunctory
as was that of the board Of re-
view. The papers will be approved
and laid before Secretary of War
Davis with the sentence of five
years suspension and loss Of pay
unmitigated.
1t is considered well nigh GER
tain. however. that Davis will send
the case to the White House with
a recommendation for a reduction
of the sentence. Whether Davis
does or does not recommend len
iency, Mitchell's friends expect the
President to take some of the sting
out OF the sentence by reducing
