'S.OOO IN U. $. ARMY TO FACE GRAFT CHARGES Wholesale Court - Martials for Noncommissioned Officers Hinted. BY DANIEL M. KIDNEY liirm ‘•tiff Writer WASHINGTON Nov 22.—Wholesale court-martialmg of 3.000 to 4.000 cases of alleged petty grafting by noncommissioned army officers was In prospect today. The charges, involving many thou, and dollars grew out of an investigation in*o the army's $35-a----month allowance for living quarters to non-comm;, uonod officers on detached service. Controller-General John McCarl's staff gathered the data. The first cases to attract public attention occurred in Indiana, where a federal grand jury indicted seven sergeants. Their trial was scheduled for next Tuesday. Army officers immediately asked that the cases be transferred to their jurisdiction, but were thwarted by Val Nolan. United States attorney at Indianapolis. The war department appealed to Attorney-General Homer S. Cummings. Mr. Nolan was summoned to Washington for a talk with Mr. Cummings, and announced thereafter that he would ask continuance of the Indiana cases until courtsmartial could proceed at Ft. Benjamin Harrison, Indianapolis. Three majors and three colonels attended the Nolan-Cummings conference. They said they wanted courts-martial to establish a standard procedure In such cases, which they said number from 3,000 to 4.000 Today the war department explained that officers thought the “Irregularities’* might have arisen ' from a mi. understanding by ••noncoms," who might have considered that the $35 maximum was allowable to them whether spent foi quarters or not. They- also suggested that fewer men were involved than the number of cases indicated. The same men. moving from place to place, might be involved in several cases. In Indiana, the evidence disclosed by the McCarl investigators showed that one sergeant at Evansville had drawn up a fraudulent lease with a man who owned no property, m order to collect $35 a month while actually paying $18.50 to $25 for his quarters. Charles P. Taft, son of the late ex-pre.udent and chief justice, appeared in Indianapolis to ask that | one case be quashed. He had served in the World war with the sergeant involved Unirn States Attorney Val Nolan felt that, since the custom seemed widespread and the army had not acted, he should proceed with the prnseci tions. Mr. Cummings, however, sided with the army. POLICE FUND PROFITS BY SUIT SETTLEMENT Contribution Marks End of Action Brolght by Lawyer After Arrest.
