The piece discusses the right to counsel in criminal trials and explains that counsel is not automatic at public expense unless required by unusual circumstances. It also reports on a 1958 military pay bill boosting survivor benefits for Michigan widows of veterans with service connected deaths, noting most increases are small, automatic, and retroactive to June 1, 1958, with non service connected widows unaffected.
