and 43 out Of 749 the previous
year. Cadets may resign before
graduation. After graduating, in
ordinary time, they must serve
four years before they resign.
However, during the Korean war
no regular officer has been al
lowed to resign.
Bigger Civilian Opportunity.
The situation has brought
about some searching studies. 1t
is clear that increased opportu-
mites offered in civilian life,
coupled with the loss of priv
ileges by military officers, have
seriously affected the problem in
recent years. At the same time,
other interesting findings have
been brought forth.
The military men, for instance
are worrying about the "habitual
slurring" Of the officer corps by
Congress and the press with such
a term as military brass"
THE brass is an approbrious
connotation indicating command
and if it can be linked with the
Pentagon, it has a doubly effec-
tive implication of dishonesty,
stupidity and waste" one gen.
eral commented in a paper on
the subject. THE term gen
erals of course, pinpoints the
brass and specifically exempts
the civilian secretariat. The
boys constitute that great
sinned-against mass, generally
the enlisted men, a bit more spe-
officially the privates, and most
specifically the selectees.
1T is recognized the military
can and should expect public
criticism" he continued, but the
lurid criticism is obviously di-
rected at a whipping boy who
will not strike back"
THE 1948 Civilian Advisory
Commission on Service Pay did
not recommend military pay
scales paralleling the civilian
pattern in the highest brackets
and commented that the re-
wards of our military leaders in
the past have been modest pay,
security and the affection and
respect of the people, I wonder
sometimes about that affection
and respect"
Appropriation Bill Riders.
hTere also has been some
study Of the mattey of specific
legislative restrictions on the
services, such as riders to ap-
preparations bills. The Congress
sional right to legislate condi-
tions Of management is not con-
tested but the saddling Of re-
strictive riders is said to SAVIOR
Of the spirit of spite.
With no hearings, little knowl-
edge of ultimate implications
and sometimes of petty subject
matter, the riders sometimes sat-
iSfy the grudges of individuals.
But, according to the military,
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1953-03-01

they sometimes have the effect
of multiplying or denying rights
bestowed by permanent law, and
thus destroy the security, of
which the pay commission spoke.
One such amendment denied
retirement pay to a substantial
group of officers, although they
were entitled by permanent law
to retirement, mandatorily, at
their option. Several hundred
officers, veterans of both World
Wars, who deferred requesting
retirement because of Korea, are
thus presently affected.
Another rider, inserted in an
effort to keep the military from
becoming overladen with top
brass, has restricted the promo
ton of lower-ranking officers and
unquestionably has caused a
hesitancy on the part of some
young men about joining the
services. Congress is correcting
this factor, but damage has been
done.
Cost of Changing Station.
While lack of public quarters
on posts and stations and up
ward price trend in commissaries
are cited, the instability of as
signments is considered a major
handicap in getting top grade
officer material.
In theory, an officer is COM
pensated for expenses incurred
upon permanent change of sta
ton. In practice, travel allow
ances do not cover the many
incidental expenses of moving
and damage to personal and
household effects and weight
limitations make it impossible
for an officer to move without
digging into his own pocket.
When changes take place at
the usually considered normal
interval of each three or four
years. the cost is accepted as
the normal cost of practicing his
profession. All too frequently,
however, the changes take place
several times a year. because of
the rapid rotation system due to
the war in Korea.

Lawyers Meet JeIke
In Jail Cell, Pledge
Strong Appeal Fight
BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Feb. 28.-Minot
(Mickey) Jelke's lawyers con-
ferred with him in a jail cell to-
day and later said they would
appeal the margarine heirs con-
viction for inducing young wom-
en- tc become prostitutes.
The attorneys, Sam Segal and
Martin Benjamin, said the 90
year-old playboy had messages
from his father, John j. Jelke,
ST., Of Chicago, and his mother
and Stepfather, Mr.. and Mrs.
Ralph Teal Of Danbury, Conn.
All the messages, the lawyers
said told young Jelke that I'VE
have just begun to fight"
The Stepfather promised an
appeal to the highest court in
the land, if necessary.
Wants No Family Visitors.
The attorneys said Jelke was
lonesome" in the Jail cell but
had asked that his family not
visit him there because they've
gone through enough"
An all-male jury, convicting
him on two of three counts
charging compulsory prostitu-
ton after celebrating less than
five hours, recommended mercy.
General Sessions Judge Fran
els L. Valente set March 20 for
sentencing. Jelke faces a maxi
mum of 40 years in jail-2O
years on each count.
He was sent to City Prison
Friday night. Next week he may
be released on bail.
Jelke was convicted of induc-
Ing Pat Ward, 10, to become a
prostitute and of attempting to
do likewise to Marguerite Cor
dova, Is, a former hatcheck
girl.
Acquitted on One Count.
The jury acquitted Jelke of
trying to force Pat Thompson,
%, into similar practices.
Judge Valente barred press
and public from the prosecution
phase of the 25-day trial. Testi-
mony by admitted call girls who
piled their trade among high
living New Workers. was too lurid
for public consumption, the
judge said.
Both Jelke'S lawyers and the
prosecutor, Assistant District At
torney Anthony j. Liebler, agreed
that the most damaging evil
dence against Jelke was a hand
written list of male prospects
which he turned over to Miss
Cordova.
"The handwriting was the
whole thing" said Segal.

CONSERVATION
 NOTES

While driving through the Val ley the past few days I've seen a few cases of grass or stubble burning. I don't think much of the idea. One thing we lack in this country is organic matter. You don't gain anything by burn ing it up. Every pound of crop residue burned means just so much more fertilizer you have to buy. The grass looks greener fast CT alright after burning. The req son is you just see it sooner. That mat of dry grass or stubble you leave will rot down during the season and replenish the soil. It will not harm a grass stand any time.
 Speaking of grass or pasture stands, now is the time to get to work. If you haven't fertilized already, do so as soon as you can cross the fields without damage.
 The extension Service or EX- pertinent Station has a folder giving fertilizer recommendations for the Valley. This is the best word there is on fertilizer, fol- low it. You won't be disappointed.
 Have you arranged your pas ture fields into grazing units? Do it now. Split your pasture fields into as small units as possible. Craze them in rotaton. It pays off. An electric fence can be one of the best investments you can make. This old open field grazing is a thing of the past. It's the best way I know of to produce nice poor weedy pasture Don't do it. The grass will be green the 17th of May. Be ready for it.
