Hiqhest Court Voids
EXCL Military Trials
10th Case
Reversed in
SO Ruling
BY ROBERT K. WALSH

Congress exceeded its consti-
tutional power when it passed
a law allowing court-martial Of
civilians after their discharge
from the armed forces, the SUI
preme Court ruled today.
In a 6-to-3 opinion written
by Justice Black, the court re-
versed a decision Of the U. 8.
Court of Appeals for the District
of Columbia in the case Of Rob-
ert w. 10th. a former Air Force
sergeant, now a Pittsburgh steel
worker.
The opinion from which JUS
tices Reed, Burton and Minton
dissented, struck at a key pre-
vision OF the 1850 Uniform Code
of Military Justice which per-
mitted court martial of former
Iservicemen in certain types Of
major crimes.
Arrested After Discharge
Mr.. 10th was discharged from
the Air Force in December. 1852.
He was arrested the following
May in Pittsburgh by military
authorities and flown to Korea
to face court martial on charges
that he and two other former
Iservicemen had murdered q
South Korean civilian in 1852
while Mr.. 10th was in the serv-
ice.
Judge Alexander Holtzof Of
the United States District Court
for the District of Columbia or
.dered the Air Force to return
Mr., 10th to this country and
release him.
Judge Holtzoff was reversed
by the Appeals Court. but his
decision now has been sustained
by the Supreme Court. Mr.. 10th
has been free on bond during
the long legal battle.
I'VE find nothing in the his
tory of Constitutional treatment
Iof military tribunals which en-
titles them to rank along with
Article III courts as adjudicatcrs
Iof the guilt or innocence Of peo-
pie charged with offenses for
which they can be deprived Of
their life, liberty or property"
Justice Black wrote In referring
to Article III of the Federal
Constitution concerning estab-
Ilishment and operation of civil
ian courts.
Not Military Responsibility
unlike courts, it is the pri-
mary business Of armies and
lnavies to fight or be ready to
fight wars should the occasion
arise. But trial of soldiers to
maintain discipline is merely
incidental to an army's primary
fighting function. -.
Moreover, there is a great
difference between trial by jury
and trial by selected members
|of the military forces. It is
true that military personnel,
because of their training and
experience, may be especially

IN 1896, holds SO per cent Of the
Inon-voting A stock. or 3.089. .90S
shares. The Ford family also
owns 190.347 shares of A stock.
The balance is held by l08 key
employees of the company.
When the reorganization is
complete. the only no voting A
common win be held by the Ford
Foundation. As soon as any Of
this is offered for sale to the
public. however, it is to be con-
verted into voting common stock.
All the A stock held by the
Ford family will be converted
into shares of the new B stock.
This would bring the total of
B shares. all held by the family,
to 6.480,750. Whenever any Of
these B shares are sold outside
the family, they will be con-
verted into new common stock
with voting rights.
AS long as there are 2,700, 900
