A nisconstruction has been
placed on the 1,043 courts-marttal
enumerated in the Coast Guard

lard. commandant. declared today.
Billiard issued the following state
ment:
THE number of court matrial
cases. dishonorable discharges and
other penalties on enlisted men Of
the Coast Guard set forth in the
annual report just released have
to do almost exclusively with de-
sertions and the ordinary run Of
military offenses, and have nothing
to do whatever with collusion with
rum-runners, or anything OF that
sort.
The morale and discipline OF the
enlisted force OF the Coast Guard
are. as high as in any other mill
tary service under the United
States. Instances OF grave miscon-
duct in connections with anti
smuggling work have been prac-
tically negligible.
I'm the number Of court martial
cases listed, do not believe there
have been over three cases. In u
total of 10000 personnel of con-
vfction of such misconduct"
