CIemeney Plea Made

Drew Stiffest Penalty
BY The Associated Press

BAD NAUHEIM, Germany, Aug.
3.-Charging a grave miscarriage
Of justice" ID Lichfield trial officers
yesterday appealed for clemency for
Sergt. Judson H. Smith, who drew
the heaviest of all penalties inflicted
on II soldiers convicted of brutali-
ties at the Army's Lichfleld eng
landl guardhouse.
The officers asked a clemency
board appointed by Brg. Gen. T. F.
Bresnahan, commander Of the con-
tinental base section, to cancel two
and half years of the three-year
prison sentence imposed on Smith,
a former guardnouse jailer from
Cumberland, KY.
Smith was convicted in London
last February Is in the opening
Llchfield trial. His sentence was
far heavier than any imposed since.
Under normal Army procedure
convicted soldiers have the right
personally to seek clemency before
the expiration of the first six months
of their sentence.
But, taking unexpected action on
his behalf. attorneys, witnesses and
accused officers in the Lichheld
proceedings submitted a series of
four letters and appeared before the
clemency board yesterday with dec
larations that the London trails
were irregular"
The clemency board president,
Col, John w. Darnell of Washing
ton, declared that he and his two
colleagues could not question the
decision" Of the London court, but
admitted the letters into the plea.
Action to effect Smiths release
and his readmittance in the Army
he was dishonorably discharged
was initiated by his present prison
officer, 1t. Lee Cooper of Ports
mouth, Ohio.

that mis- marriage is just about all

He insisted he did not mean phys

When asked if he reported to

Information for Veterans

Any Veteran of World War ii, re-
leased from active service under
conditions other than dishonorable,
after active service of ninety days
or more, or by reason of an injury
or disability incurred in service in
line of duty, Shall be entitled to re-
ceive readjustment allowance for
each week of unemployment. The
above statement condensed from
Chapter VII of Title V of the Ser
vicemens Readjustment Act of 1914
has been the cause of too much
criticism, in many cases provoked
by the veteran himself in referring
to membership in the 1920 Club. AS
to whether this allowance is justi-
fled has never been questioned as
the public in general realize that
our returning veterans are entitled
to a period of readjustment. The
duration of this period has been the
cause, in many cases, unjustified, of
much comment. We all admit that
ill the administration of any Act
dealing with millions of persons,
that errors, and in some cases in
justices, Will be made, but furtner
glance at the picture reveals that
after-all, this veteran who is being
criticised, is as whole, making the
adjustment as rapidly as could be
expected.
Of more than 100000 World
War ii veterans who have returned,
eighty percent have found employ
ment, twelve percent are students
and veterans needing rest and re-
habilitation, eight percent are un-
employed. The great majority of all
claimants, however, have remained
on the rolls for only short periods
CT time Only one fifth of the 5.5
million ex-servicemen who have re-
ceived unemployment benefits were
in continued claim status at the be-
ginning of October.
