HIGH COURT TO
TRY MITCHELL
Believed To Be Highest Ever Assem
bled For Grade of Colonel. All
Are Senior and Hold Honors.
Washington, Oct. 20.—What is be
lieved to be the highest ranking court-
martial ever assembled for trial of an
army officer in the grade of colonel
today was ordered by direction of
President Coolidge to cpnvene in
Washington, October 28.
On that date, or as soon after as
possible, Col. William Mitchell, storm
center of the air service controversy,
will be brought before the court on
charges specifying violation of the
ninety-six articles of war.
l J1
I!
Under the provisions of this article,
conviction could, in the discretion of
the court, be made punishable by dis
missal from the army. Presidential
approval, however, would be required
before such a verdict could be put
into effect.
Secretary Dwight Davis is credited
with having. picked the members of
the court himself. All of them are
senior in point of service and rank to
Colonel Mitchell, and all hold medals
of honor, or distinguished service
crosses or medals. The court was
composed by special effort only of of
ficers free from duties connected with
the war department and general staff
administratign.
Mr. Davis’ action today came as the
culmination of several days of dis
agreement between Colonel Mitchell
and war department’officials and gen
eral staff officers over policies con
nected with the administration of the
air service. It waS precipitated, how
ever, by the recent statement in which
the Colonel, then on duty with the
eighth corps area headquarters at San
Antonio, Texas, sensationally charged
that the conduct of the war and navy
departments in certain air service
functions had been “almost treason
able” and criminally negligent.
The Mitchell charges were published
on the heels of the Shenandoah dis
aster, and before the finding of the
PN-9 No. 1, naval plane then lost in
the Pacific ocean, after its failure to
negotiate the flight from San Fran
cisco to Honoullu.
While the war department withheld
the specifications of the charge from
publication tonight, so they might b?
read first before the court in accord
ance with custom, it is more than
probable that Colonel Mitchell will be
judged on evidence presented to show
that he has conducted himself M to the
prejudice of good order and military
discipline.”
With the charge, against him con-
fined to that specification^ it is un
likely that he will be allowed to Intro
duce in his own defense any discussion
involving the Shenandoah disaster or
the PN-9 No. 1, failure. j iri
The 96th article, for violation of: n
which Colonel Mitchell will be tried,
reads:
“Though not mentioned in these
articles, all disorders and neglects to
the prejudice of good order v upon the
military service, and all crimes or of
fenses not capital, of which persons,
subject to military law may be guilty,
shall be taken cognizance of by a
general or special or summary court-
martial, according to the nature and
degree of the offense, and punished
at the discretion of the court.”
The court of 13 members, the max
imum number permitted under army
courtmar£ial regulations for the trial
of military offenders, will be headed
by Maj. Gen. Charles P. Summerall,
commanding the Second corps area,
New York. Within its membership
are included four other corps area
commanders having headquarters at
Columbus, Ohio, Baltimore, Md., Chi
cago, 111., and Omaha, Neb. The re
maining members, with*the exception
of Col. Blanton Winship, who is on
duty at First corps area headquarters
in Boston, law member of the court,
are all 1 brigadier generals.
The chief members of the court will
be Maj. Gen. Robert L. Howze, com
manding the Fifth corps area at Co
lumbus, Ohio; Fred W. Sladen, super
intendent of the West Point Military
academy; Douglas MacArlhur, com
manding the Third corps area at Bal
timore; W. S.. Graves, commanding the
Sixth corps area, Chicago and Benja

enth corps area at Omaha.
