Mitchell Case Reverberates as Davis Pledges Action
Washington dispatches report Col William Mitchell again detailing his knowledge of the Shenandoah crash as a naval inquiry reconvenes. Secretary Davis plans firm measures to enforce the Mitchell verdict, while New York mayoral politics discuss Mitchell’s post and the broader drive for a unified air force amid postwar reorganizations. In Chicago, supporters call Mitchell a modern John Brown. Police raid at 210 Lincoln Street nets several arrests for disturbing conduct and a disorderly house run by Gertrude Jane.
