RE|S|NGER'S TRIAL
MAY NOT Be OPEN
Marine Corps Paymaster
Accused of Making En-
roneous Reports.

While indications today were that
the general court-martial of Brig.
Gen. Harold c. Reisinger, the pay
master OF tf1e Marine Corps, on Mon
day at Quantico, Va, will be open to
the public, this was not entirely GER
tain. Gen. Reisinger is accused of
conduct to the prejudice Of good or
der and discipline" having alledegdly
made erroneous reports concerning his
individual official travel accounts.
Navy Department authorities said
the rule in general courts martial is
that the accused himself may ask that
the public be barred The constitu-
tional provision for public and speedy
trial is the right of the accused, Off
cials explained, declaring that If Gen.
Reisinger so elects. the case would be
closed to outsiders.
Difference of Opinion.
Other authorities believe, however,
that the 'convening authorityH-in
this case Secretary Swanson-could
order the general court martial open
to the public. Yet others contend that
it will be up to the president of the
court-martial board, Maj. Gen. James
c. Breckenridge. commanding the Ma
rine Barracks at Quantico, To make
the decision, after the accused is ar
raigned.
Gen. Reisinger will be prosecuted
under military law by Maj. Joseph
w. Knighton, u. S. M c., whc has
been designated as judge advocate at
the court-martial. Maj. Knighton has
taken graduate course in law
he was born April 30 1896. In recent
years, he has been on duty with the
4th Regiment, U. S. Marines, at
Shanghai, China.
A graduate in law himself, Gen
Reisinger has taken an active hand
with his counsel In the preparation of
his defense.
Exact Sum Not Disclosed.
The exact sum of which Gen. Reis-
niger stands accused of allegedly TAX
ing has not yet been disclosed by the
authorities, but it is understood IL is
comparatively small. Navy Depart
ment officials left no doubt that the
accounting system in the paymaster's
department at Marine Corps head
quarters hereof which Gen. REFS
niger had charges perfectly clear in
the present instance. Only Gen. Reis-
inger's personal travel accounts, while
on official business, IRE allegedly COM
promised, officials pointed out.
Periodically Gen. Reisinger. in his
capacity as the paymaster of the entire
Marine Corps. made inspection trips
over the country. He became the
paymaster on March /, 1886, with the
rank Of brigadier general for a period
of four years and since that time he
has visited various sections of the
Nation, inspecting the accounts of his
paymasters throughout the service.

dressed by several Nationalist native
orators who. police said came from
Fez to organize a demonstration.
The Nationalists. singing native
Moroccan songs and carrying the
Moroccan flag, marched through the
streets. bowling over police dispatched
to halt them.
They pushed against barricades
erected before the Civil Government
Building. Police fired several times on
the Nationalists, but were unable to
disperse them.
Fierce fighting broke out on the
barricades. The natives stoned the
defenders until the French Legion
naires arrived from Rabat.
Magistrates swiftly sentenced those
arrested from 10 DAYS to year in
prison and rushed them to Rabat fol-
lowing reports that trouble was spread
ing in other towns.
Fighting reached its peak when a
mob of more than 1000 Arabs. many

Shear the High Court of Usurped Power

The resignation of Associate Justice Van
Devanter from the U. S. Supreme Court gives
President Roosevelt a moral victory in his
battle for a liberal court. But it does not give
this country a liberal court which can and
will work in harmony with modern times. If
the Roosevelt administrations are going to
leave this nation any lasting benefit it is es-
sential that we have during the next three
years a liberal court which will permit need
ed reform legislation to accomplish its ends.
1t is most essential that several additional
progressive judges be named to the court or
that the old r%eactionary membership be re-
placed by open minded men in tune with con-
temporary life, custom, and needs. With a
liberal-minded court to aid rather than re-
tard recovery the Roosevelt administration
might easily achieve som lasting benefits
for us. Without such a court no real success
can be secured. The Van Devanter ~reSigna-
ton should not be termed a victory for Amer
lean progressives if it is only a gesture on
the part Of the r~eactionaries. The reaction
aries have apparently given up a little in
order to win a great deal. The fight must not
cease until we have a liberal court. And
when we secure such a court a new fight
should be begun with its objective the re-
capture of government in this country by the
people. The people of these United States
will never really rule until the usurped priv
lege of the Supreme Court to invalidate acts
of Congress is stripped from it. In our demo-
cratic nation the power to rule is inherent in
the people. No appointed court over which
the people have utterly no control should be
tolerated in its endeavor to override the ac-
ton of the chosen representatives of the peo-
pie. Such action is tyranny and is tolerated
by the people only at their peril.

Death For Sale

Uncle Sam is this year doing twice as much
business in the weapons Of war as last. Fig
ures just released by the State Department
show that during the six months which end
ed June l, 1887, exports Of American NUM-
lions totalled $24,4 92, 152. For the whole
year which ended November 80, 1886, $780,
900, 900 worth Of war tools were sent abroad.
Munitions exports have therefore nearly
doubled in the last six months.
No one will be surprised to learn that. With
bombs bursting all over Spain and a world
armament race in full swing, it is to be ex-
pected that American business would get its
cut. But that's no sign the situation is either
healthy or wise.
The United States has declared in two spe-
cifc ways that it will not support war. It is
one of the 60 signers Of the Paris Pact, which
makes war illegal. Our neutrality law de-
clares we will not ship arms to nations at war.
If we are not going to support war, why
should we support preparation for war? Why
should we equip nations for mass murder
right up until the day a war starts? There
is no reason for it unless we are willing to
o. K. the sale of death for human beings,
which is what armament shipments amount
to.
Agitation is brewing in Congress for put
ting the screws on such exports. Senator
Nye and Representative Fish have already
introduced a bill to accomplish this. 1t ought
to be passed at this session. Every day of
delay adds new m~ight-made in America
to the gods of war.

A Look at the Record

Before swallowing the common blurb that
President Roosevelt's plan for remodehng the
Supreme Court has been slaughtered, killed,
scrapped. annihilated, washed up and treat
ed to several other bad ends, just consider
SOM of the things which have happened
since the President put forward that plan. In
that brief period,
The Supreme Court reversed itself on the
question of minimum wage laws for women
It had knocked out an act of Congress on this
matter IA years before, saying that Congress
had no power to protect women from exploit
tation. 1t had knocked out the New York
state law on this subject 10 months before,
saying that a state legislature had no such
power.
Then, Just a few weeks after the President
proposed a radical change in the Supreme
Court, that Court does what the President
and every other New Dealer has been want
ing it to do.
Next, the Supreme Court upheld the Wag-
ner Labor Relations Act in such a way as to
declare that Congress has a right to fix labor
relations for manufacturing industry, when
the manufactured products goes into inter
state commerce. The court knocked dow
and tramped on Justice Sutherlands pet no
ton, that the relations between factory own
err and worker are domestic relations" pure
ly local, and free from any interference by
Congress.
And last week the Supreme Court for the
third time since the Presidents plan was pro-
posed to Congress, upheld the Social Secur-
ity Act-the unemployment insurance, old
age pensions, and the excise taxes levies to
provide funds for both.
In other words, since President Roosevelt
put forward his plan, the Supreme Court has
twice reversed itself, and in five instances
sanctioned laws which either directly or in
directly it had condemned before. And there
is nothing in the record to account for such
reversal-except the focusing of public atten-
ton on the Supreme Court, brought about by
the Presidents proposal.-From Colorado La
Dor Advocate, Denver, Colo, June 3, 1887.
