Fake Auction Bill Moves After House Approval
District committee reporting favorably the so called fake auction bill as part of revenue measures. Senators will soon take up the calendar and push the bill to the President for signature amid merchant and citizen support in Washington. The Westley court martial at Camp Ordway is near verdict in the Harold Wesley case with testimony concluding and defense stressing inexperience and guard negligence. Maj. Gen. Leonard Wood awaits the sealed verdict, likely to yield a guardhouse term plus fine if asked. The weekend tournament preparations at the camp proceed with pep and a mule joust for supply entrants, plus a new noncommissioned officers school led by Brig. Gen. Harvey and Lt. Miley to improve duties and discipline across Third Infantry. The Citizens' Welfare Association reports steady appeals and ongoing relief work pending War Department action on the revised army bill.
