CAPITOL ne ON SPY SECRECY

Wilson Soacead “Trials: Lincoln Assassins’

Case Chief Precedent.

By FRED W. PERKINS & Times Spécial Writer - WASHINGTON, July 16. ~The secrecy that surrounds the current military trail of eight alleged German saboteurs is. matched by an unusual silence on éapitol hill respecting this important episotle in Amerijean history. Not a word nas been said publicly in the usually vocal senate or house concerning the use of military pro= cedure, rather than that ef the civil courts, ih these cases, although— Certain members of congress say privately that the precedent might prove dangerous if it were applied repeatedly, even if only ih cases of saboteurs whe enter the United States by stealth in time of war, as is charged in these cases. They fear a “callousing of the public conséience.”

The earlier commission planned old its sessions in ‘secret, but at brought,protests from the press and the. courtroom evgntually was opetied to reporters andl visitors who

vigorous protests against the secrecy of the present trial have been of no avail, . Authorities believe the reason for the civil trial in Bdward -Surratt’s case wag that in the interval between it and the military trials the supreme court had handed down an important decision (ex parte Milli gan, 1866), which cast grave doubts|g on the legality of military tribunals
