Warns Of Dangers
$50 far" Gen. Groves said
"our educational system has
shown itself incapable of meet
ing the challenge which has
arisen to confront it."
1.-THE complete lack of general
serious mathematical or scien-
tific study, not only in our col
leges but in most of our high
schools, is absurd. This is dan
gerous in the present condition
Of the world"
He added that there sis little
comfort to us in the fact that
the Soviet Union is turning out
$4,000 engineers year while our
schools are giving industry only
10000 engineers year"
Mr. Vogel reported on agree
ments for atomic research with
q other countries.
Cites Associations
The agreements reached in
1854 provide for an exchange
of information in the design,
construction and operation of
research reactors and related
fields. Last June, President Eli
senhower offered research re-
actors to free nations who can
use them effectively" and said
the United States would pay half
the cost.
In February, Mr.. Vogel said,
the Acc recommended and Mr.
Eisenhower announced alloca-
ton of 10000 Kilograms of u
235 for distribution abroad in
support of foreign reactor pro-
grams. A similar quantity was
allocated for use in the private
domestic civil program in this
country.
The total ALLEGATION was val

Vogel said, land should be suf-
f1cient to fuel an initial electric
generating capacity of several

with Mrs. Eldridge to Florida.

For many years DR.. Eldridge's
facility was the only medical
hospital operating within a mem
tai institution.
During his tenure he cut the
tuberculosis death rate to less
than one-half Of per cent
compared to the average 5 per
cent or more in most mental
hospitals. He also pioneered in
use of malarial injections as a
cure for syphilis. The practice
was generally accepted treat
ment for the disease before the
advent Of the wonder drugs.
Under DR.. Eldridge's direction.
st. Elizabeths became the first
mental hospital accredited by
the Joint Commission on Hos
pital Accreditation for intern
ships in 1925. Since 1850 the
hospital has been accredited for
resident training in surgery and
neurology.

in handling approximately $500
cases during the last five years
has "indelibly impressed the
Judges with the belief that the
present system should be re-
tanned and that the court itself
should determine what cases it
will hear"
He reported that 81 per cent
of the servicemen who appealed
to his court we're represented by
military counsel at court martial
proceedings.
1.-THE counsel are assigned to
the Office of the Judge Advocate
General of the service and he is
their ranking SUPERIOR" Judge
Quinn remarked. 1T requires
little imagination to know that
they might be required to work
under conditions which may not
permit them full mental free
dom.
Review Issue Attacked
THE proposed amendment
would go a long way toward re-
storing command control and, if
appellate processes can be con-
trolled by the military, a good
deal of the courts influence can
be eliminated. Certainly the
court could be reduced to fur
Inishing advisory opinions and
those only in the areas desired
by the service"
Mr.. Firms statement today not
merely agreed with Judge Quinn
on that point but added: This
proposal is quite definitely an at
tempt to vitiate and circum-
scribe the present power of the
court"
Mr.. Finn said the Legion also
opposes a proposal to eliminate
reviews in cases where the ac-
Icused serviceman pleads guilty
and is sentenced to dishonor-
able or bad conduct discharge or
confinement for year or more.

Bid to Alter Military Code ; judges Void
Draws Legion Opposition Extra Sentence

An additional five-year SEN
tence imposed on a robber was
voided today by the U. S. Court
of Appeals for the District on
the ground that the indictment
did not specify he was armed
with a pistol.
The issue, unique in the Dis
trict. involved George T. Jor-
dan. colored. who was sentenced
in 1858 to serve 6 to 20 years
after being convicted of assault
with intent to rob a grocer.
Maximum sentence for the Of
Tense is is years Imprisonment
The indictment charged the
crime was committed with "force
and arms" Uncontroverted evil
dence at the trial was that Jor-
dan was armed with a pistol.
Under District law. a perpetra-
tor of a crime of violence is sub
ject to an additional five-year
penalty if he is armed with
any pistol or other firearm. -
The trial judge added the extra
f1ve-year term in sentencing.
But today, the appellate court
declared that the indictment

Of the robbery crime and it de-
clared g. the facts in aggra-
walton must be charged in the
indictment and found to be true

The opinion was written by
Judge George T. Washington.
Concurring were Judges Wilbur
K. Miller and Walter M. Bastian.
Jordan had been indicted for
the murder of another grocer
several years ago, but that
charge was dropped because of
insufficient evidence.
Jordan has spent many years
in mental institutions and his
defense in the case at issue today
was insanity. On appeal, he was
represented by Charles A.
Horsky, an attorney appointed
by the court.

Korea Deserter DISCHARGES
Legality Questioned Again

A question has been raised
aeain--informally by Chief Judge
Robert Z. Quinn Of the United
States Court Of Military Ap.
peals--about the legality of dis.
honorable discharges of former
American servicemen who stayed
with the Reds in Korea.
Judge Quinn told a House
Armed Services subcommittee
yesterday that he knew OF nc

rotary Of Defense or to give dis
honorable discharges without @
court martial.

rotary OF Defense Wilson last

been captured by the Commu-
Inists during the Korean fighting
and later decided to remain
there. Several Of the 81 men
changed their minds and re-
turned to this country.
There we're reports several
months ago that three of the
men who returned might chal-
lenge the dishonorable dis
charges. At that time it was
noted that the Uniform Code Of
Military Justice states that a dis
honorable discharge can result
only from conviction by q gen.
eral court martial. Some Army
officials had suggested that "un-
desirable discharges" we're the
worst that could be imposed by
administrative action.

was Chief Judge Robert E
Quinn who testified before a
House Armed Services subcom-
mittee yesterday.
"StrangulateS" Code
In a statement prepared for
reading before the subcommittee
today, Mr.. Finn charged that the
manual for courts m artia
"strangulates" and threatens to
sabotage" the code. He asserted
that proposed amendments to
the code enacted by Congress in
1850 were not prepared from
the standpoint of the individual
man in the service" At least one
of the proposals. he warned
would practically nullify the
power of the Military Court OF
Appeals.
The provisions. the legion
spokesman said, would increase
authorized company punishments
and facilitate summary DISPOSE
tions of minor offenseS without
providing the proper type OF
review.
Judge Quinn, former Rhode
Island governor and State judge
did not take issue to that extent
with revisions recommended to
Congress by a code committee
including the three judges of his
court and the judge advocates
general of the armed forces. He
protested, however, that some
provisions in the pending House
bill far, exceed those recommen-
dations and cannot be justi-
fed by experience, reason or
logic"
Pair Asked to Return
The subcommittee headed by
Representative Brooks. Demo-
crat of Louisiana. showed so
much interest in the comments
of Chief Judge Quinn and AS
Sociate Judge George w. Lati-
mer. a former Utah Supreme
Court justice, that it requested
them to return tomorrow.
Mr.. Brooks said his group moi
only wanted to discuss more Of
the proposed amendments but
also to hear the views of Judge

to the Philippines. Judge Fer.

that would require an accused
serviceman to obtain a "certifl-
cate of probable cause from his
counsel before the Military Court
of Appeals could consider his
request for review of a court
martial conviction.
This proposed change is sc
hostile TO the spirit and intent
of the code that l earnestly OPP
pose its adoption" Judge Quinn
declared. 1T reads innocuouslS
but the ultimate effect is to re-
turn control of military justice

provisions they can prevent the

"Destroy Right to Appeal"
"In practice it will benefit ar

to employ civilian counsel and il

Judge Quinn said he did no
imply that any judge advocate
would deliberately attempt t
thwart the course of justice. Bu
he contended that the poten'
tialities for harm to the system
and to the accused are present
in the proposed amendment"

No Lodgings at MIR. Jones

/ arrived at Mr.. Jones' residence Just
as the sun was setting and was told
by his wife her husband was down the
creek bringing the cows home. 1t didn't
take me long to find him and instead
of asking me back he said ''It won't
take me long to give you my assessment
right here" I asked where I could get
lodging and he mentioned Mr.. Tom
Cue on the bench two miles distance.
The bachelor place sounded good to
me. I knew I would be welcome there,
as there would always be room for one
more. To my dismay Toms house was
locked when arrived. My first thought
was to get my horse into the barn and
fed and by this time I was using
matches to find some feed. I should
have had flashlight but I didn't.
While feeding the horse I heard
chickens in an adjoining shed and pro-
ceeded to go through the door to get
some eggs. I was not a fancier of raw
eggs but knew it would help for pack
