Army Court Martial System Too Harsh, House Sub-
 Committee Reports

WASHINGTON, April 20.--Court martial sentences sent 142 soldiers to their deaths during the war years and ensuing months. House military subcommittee disclosed to- day in recommending an extensive overhaul for the Armys system of justice.
 The group reported that in the period between Dec. 2, l941. and Feb. 22, l946, 72 men were executed for murder, 5l for rape. IS for murder and rape, and one for de- |sertion.
 The findings were set forth in a 25.0c0-word document sharply criti- cal of what the subcommittee call ed the injustices. the extreme sev- erity of sentences and tte partial ity resulting from the existing court martial system.

WASHINGTON, April 20. - Int United States opened an intensive new attack on the global food cri. sis today, ordering 25 percent slash in domestic flour consump- tion and calling for even more vi- gorous self-rationing of food ir american homes.
 The emergency, President Tru- man revealed, has become so acute that this country's already low wheat reserve are going to be cut even further to furnish famine re- lief.

NEW CRISIS E FACED BY FRENCH CABINET |0vER ONE CHAMBER

PARIS, April 20. The French Cabinet faced serious crisis today following approval by the Con- stituent Assembly last night of a new leftist sponsored constitution which would establish powerful one-chamber legislature.
 The constitution for the Fourth Republic was adopted by vote of 309 to 249, over the objection Of rightist parties, including the strong Popular Republican Movement (MRP) and the adical-Socialists. It will be submitted to the electorate at national referendum May 5.
 Observers said the assembly's ac- tion was almost cetrain to result in a bitter campaign over Frances or ganic law, and might split the coali- tion government at a Cabinet meet ing next Wednesday. when President Felix Gouin will ask his ministers to endorse the constitution.
 Some sources predicted that such a request might lead to the resigna- tion of Foreign Minister Georges Bidault and other rightest members of the Cabinet, now composed of Communists, Socialists and members of MRP.

WILL AID SETTLING
 IN NORTH
Alaska Veterans Coopera. tive Company Organ
 ized in Washington

WASHINGTON, April 20. A group believing in the coming pros perity of Alaska has formed the Alaska Veterans Cooperative Con- pany, designed to aid persons who wish to settle in the Territory.
 The Executive Committee is com posed of It. Ted Gregg of the Navy, Mai. Carl Heinmiller; S. L. Homer, former Navy Lieutenant; James Troelford and c. Squares. No other officers have been elected.
 The purpose of the group is to make it as easy as possible for per- sons desiring to settle in the Terri tory to make start. Action was taken. members said, because at present many government depart ments are concerned in arrange nents to handle the migration and the group plans to bring all arrange ments under one organization.
 Mary Lee Council, Secretary to Delegate Bartlett. one of the or ganizers, said the group hoped to arrange boat and rail transportation for prospective settlers. Many of the 100 members, she said, served in the Territory during the war Most members are veterans. but that is not one of the qualifications for membership.

FORMER JAP ARMY CHIEFS
 PLAN AHEAD
Close Watch Kept by 0t1u. pdfion Authorities on
 Farm Groups

TOKYO. April 2O.-Many former Japanase Army officers are forming groups, some on govenment-sub- sidized farms, and secreting supplies in the obvious hope of. one day regaining power.
 This is learned from reliable sources Japanese, Allied nationals and American occupation officials during careful investigation of more than two months. American officials, rather than looking upon it with undue alarm, see in the situation a naturally ex- pected one. In many instances, the identities and locations of the groups are known. They are being watched
 ITO date there has been no evil dence of any subversion of any ex- tensive scale,' said an authoritative aource at General MacArthur's headquarters.
 Much of the evidence cannot be divulged now for obvious reasons, but here are some of the findings: On so-called cooperative farms, , Japanese Army officers are well equipped with vehicles. maintain formality of rank, are well financed and are on guard for snooping neighbors.
 One such farm near Tokyo is under close Allied surveillance.
 North of Tokyo, a Japanese former major and a large staff live in a shrine near former arsenal and, through connivance with police, have obtained ample supplies of gasoline for their automobiles.

 WARSAW, April 20.-Dr. Joseph Tenebaum, President of the Ameri- can and World Federation of Polish Jews, said today that 800 Jews had been slain in Poland since the lib- eration and that Jews were being murdered and intimidated daily, all though the Polish government is doing everything in it's power to give them protection.
