Asks American Troops Abroad Be Sen! Home Illinois Solon Asks Troops Removed; Hit§ Decision On Girard WASHINGTON IL'?)—Rep. Noah m. Mason iR-111. > has called for removal of American troops from all foreign countries where no U.S interests are involved. * He urged this course Sundaynight in denouncing the government recision to let Japan try GI William S. Girard for killing a Japanese woman on a firing range near Tokyo. Simultaneously a Japanese newsman said his countrymen are incensed over the Girard case because they are avid fans of U.S western movies in which shooting ta the back, is against the code of ►honor. Girard is accused of firing an empty cartridge from a grenade launcher that struck Mrs. Naka Sakai in the back as she was picking up spent shells on the firing range. She died from the shot. The government is preparing an all-out defense of its position f<y an extraordinary Supreme Court review July 8. Officials fear ah adverse Supreme Court decision might' seriously cripple arrangements under which American troops are permitted in foreign countries- 1 * The high court has prolonged its current term to speed a final decision in the internationally important case. Much of the attack on the government’s position has been based on\the claim that Girard was on at the time of the incident and therefore should be tried by a U.S. military court-martial. That was the position taken by Federal District Judge Joseph C. McGarraghy last Tuesday' in issuing an injunction forbidding the 21-year-old Ottawa, 111., soldier’s surrett der to Japanese jurisdiction. * The government and lawyers retained by Girard's brother both have appealed the decision to the Supreme Court. The lawyers fdir Girard are happy about the injunction but are contesting McGarraghy's refusal to grant an additional writ of habeas corpus which would force Girard’s return to this country. Mason, Who represents Girard's home district in Illinois, did not confine his attack to the merits of the case. He said Girard has a right to be tried by U.S- courtmartial even if the penalty is more severe than a Japanese court would decree, as some have predicted. Kason said he does not consider Girard a "hero” but rather an “impersonal symbol of the sacrifice the State Department is offering on the altar of its 'arrangements with foreign coiifttries.’’ Appearing on the ABC-TV program "Open Hearing”, Mason said he has long opposed the status of forces treaties which prescribe conditions for trial of U.S. servicemen overseas either by American courts-mawal or foreign courts. Asked whether revocation of the treaties would not force withdraw-, al of U.S. troops if countries refused to accept them without such -agreements, he said American troops are in Japan and most other countries to protect those nations, not for U.S. security.

Beck has said he will not run for reelection. He no one could force him to *' resign, but added he would be if asked, to take a leave from his office for the remainder of his term. Informed sources said they think of leave-of-absence exit would be acceptable to a board majority. If Beck agrees to leave, the Teamster board will have to pick someone to take over duties of the presidency until the union election. This may be a knotty problem. However is chosen will have an edge on influencing the next election Teamsters leaders are by no means agreed on who should succeed Beck. Hoffa, according td union sources, wants Beck to stay in office to avoid this situation.
