MARINE HERO
RESTS IN HOME
AT QUANTICO
Attends Reservation Movie
Show in Evenings on
Few Occasions.
STRIPPED OF SWORD
Has First Conference With
His Lawyer for Trial
on Feb. 16.
STRIPPED OF SWORD
By United Press

~ Cntted Press
WASHINGTON, Feb. 3.-Major-
General Smedley D. Butler turned
today to active preparation of his
defense on charges that he insulted
Premier Mussolini Of Italy by call
ing Mussolini "hit-and-run
driver" He will face court-martial
at Philadelphia Feb. 16.
Major Henry Leonard, U. S. M. c.,
retired, chief of his defense coun-
sci, went to Quantico early today
TO plan the defense with Butler.
1t was the first conference But
Ter has had with his lawyer. 1t
was believed announcement of the
retention Of additional counsel
might be made later today.
Butler made virtually no effort
toward defense until Monday night
when he was released from the or
der to conflne himself to the Guam
tico reservation, which was given
him when he was instructed to place
himself under arrest last week.
SPENDS Time Quietly
The navy department, however,
notified him that he was free to
leave the reservation and go any
where necessary in the preparation
Of his case.
Butler has been spending his time
quietly at Quantico, remaining at
his home most Of the time. Guam
titles Of mail, much of it commend
ing his actions and promising him
moral support are coming to the
general,
In the evenings Butler has, on a
few occasions, attended the movie
show on the reservation which he
himself had equipped with sound
apparatus year ago.
Shorn of His Sword
He sits among the officers, wear
ing his uniform with the two stars
of major general on the shoulder
straps.
Buffers stars are solid gold, ham
nlered out of French coins by a
marine. Sunday night he seemed,
greatly TO enjoy a Clara Bow film.
He does not enter his Office at the
post nor engage in any marine &C
tivity whatsoever.
He is not permitted to wear his
sword.
Some one asked Butler how it
felt to be in his present position.
IT feel" he said, like the man
who thought he was taking aspirin
and found it was bichloride of
mercury"
Official Attitude Softer
Major General Ben H. Fuller,
marine comnandant, has indicated
a willingness to grant Butler leave
until his trial at Philadelphia on
Feb. 16.
Further indications of soften
ing in the official attitude toward
Butler were seen in FullerS atti-
tude toward a leave, as well as in
what was tantamount to an m
nouncenent by Navy Secretary
Adams that the Philadelphia hear
ings would be open to the public.
That the charges-outgroWth of
a Philadelphia speech in which the
general is said to have depicted
Premier MuSsolini of Italy as hit
and-run motorist and a menace to
peace-will be less severe than was
first contemplated, was conceded
here today.
