Sleuths Plan
tn Retire

NEW YORK, July 80 -(P-
There was JOY in the under
world and gloom around police
headquarters to d ay as word
spread that three of the de-
partment's best sleuths were
about to retire.
1t was hard to determine
which of the trio of veteran
detectives was the most popu-
lar with the force (and unpopu-
lar with the crooks), as a glance
at their records shows:
Edward Wiessner, so, known
as THE Duke" around the
Missing Persons Bureau who
probably located more missing
husbands and wives than any
other man.
Frank j. Teed, AZ, of the Wall
Street Squad, who in 1927 shot
and killed Walter (Red) Tip
ping, a gunman who had muir
dered Patrolman James Master
son during a speakeasy holdup.
Bernard Lester, as, whose tai
ent for recognizing wanted GRIM
inals won him an assignment in
the Rogues Gallery and who
founded the system of classify
ing outlaws according to their
methods of operation.
All three applied for retire
ment yesterday, Wiessner after
20 years of service; iced and
Lester after 25-year careers.

WASHINGTON. July 80 Up
- Apparently leaning over
backwards to avoid any faint of
the summary proceedings that
pass for Justice" in Axis lands,
the Supreme Court called for
further arguments today Cat
noon, E.W.TD in the fantastic
case of seven men who stole
ashore here from German u
Boats with the schooling and
equipment for sabotage-and
when captured announced they
were refugees.
The prime question before the
Court-raised by petitions for
habeas corpus to deliver the
pl>stl 'ers from a military COM
mission before which President
Roosevelt placed them - was
whether men such as there were
entitled to the protection of civ
ii courts as a matter of right.
NO ALIEN RIGHTS
Certainly not, contended At
torney Gen. Biddle in precise,
incisive accents emphasized with
the flat of his hand. War wipes
out the rights of the alien" he
asserted, and any relief he may
be entitled to in court depends
on the grace of the sovereign"
But yes, the men do have
rights, argued Col. Kenneth C..
Royal in a resonant southern
drawl. The tall colonel, one of
The daily monitor leader. [volume] (Mount Clemens, Mich.) 1942-19??, 1942-07-30

Justice Jackson, deeply tam
ned from his interrupted vaca-
ton, asked several questions as
TO the application of The Hague
conventions respecting the laws
of war, 10 which both the Unit
ed States and Germany are sig
natories.
STUDY STATUS
At the same time Jackson
wondered audibly. since anyone
who saw the men landing could
have shot them and il wouldn't
have been murder" at what
point did their status change
so that they acquired rights.
After they had entered the
community of ordinary human
beings in this country" Royal
answered.
The defense staff raised other
points besides the issue of whe-
Their the prisoners could claim
civil rights-that the President 5
order establishing the Military
Commission was invalid and
that the Commissions conduct
of the case was improper,
among others.

several Army officers assigned
to the defense. insisted that
even if the prisoners be soldiers
of the Reich they could claim
the shelter of the Bill of Rights
while in this country.
A regiment of German sold
iers caught landing on these
shores would not have those
rights. Royal conceded in re-
spouse to questions from the
bench which frequently inter-
spersed the six hours of argu-
ment heard yesterday as the
case opened. But the soldiers,
he explained. would have other
rights as prisoners of war -
rights these defendants cannot
claim.
The questions from the Court
made it clear that the seven JUS
tees sought TO explore every
possible claim the prisoners
might have to rights both mill
tary and civil. Justice Douglas
did not arrive from Oregon in
time for the opening session
and Justice Murphy disquali-
fled himself because of his pre-
sent military status.
Chief Justice Stone, interrupt
ing Biddle's argument, remark
ed that 1--WE recognize the courts
are not open to enemy alien
plaintiffs but we also recognize
that the courts are open to de-
PENDANTS to defend themselves"

New MobiIe Unit Fully
Equipped Dentists Office
New Dental cort Developed by
Moi Watkins Only One in Use

offered the Army by its designer
CART is A COMPLETE
"OFFICE"
Major Watkins, who served in
World War l as an enlisted man
was called active duty March 20,
1941. In the Army he soon
noticed that many bedridden
men were in need Of dental
care, which could be extended
only in the crudest form. His
cart is equipped with just about
everything the modern dental
office has, including a spotlight
and that ever-present tool, the
electric drill.
Major Watkins designed his
hospital dental cart in April and
now it's in daily use at the Fort
Benning station hospital. So
small and compact enough to be
wheeled from building to build
ing or bed to bed by one man,
it has proved its worth time and
again.
The top of the cart mounts a
dental engine, a spotlight, a ster-
ilizer, an air syringe and two
spray bottles and there's still
plenty of space to be used as a
work table. The interior is divid-
ed into compartments and
drawers, in which are kept vari-
Gus necessary articles and in
struments. There are even COM
partments for clean and soiled
linen.
