STATE BAR HEARS ANSELLjS CHARGE Ex-Acting Judge Advocate Re peats Attack on Courts-Mar tial System of the Army JESSE E. B. CUNNINGhf AM Bedford Springs, Pa., June 27.—The address of Lieutenant Colonel Samuel T. Anseli, formerly acting judge advo cate of the Army, on the subject, "Military Justice," delivered at the forenoon session of the Pennsylvania Bar Association, was pronounced by Attorney General Sehaffer, president of the association, one of the best presented during the twenty-five years' history of the organiza tion. In recognition of the excel lence of the address Colonel Ansell was made an honorary member. Among the charges made against the military code by Colonel Ansell are that it is reactionary: that it disregards evidence and that it at tempts to establish discipline through the medium of fear. He declared the military mind, personified in the courts-martial, is intolerant of all protective principles and of all rules governing a trial, and particularly so of the rules of evidence. According to the colonel, the pro fessional officers of our Army, with one accord, believe with Napier, the former British authority, that the business of courts-martial is not to discuss law, but to get at the truth by all means in its power." Oft'leerM Are Chosen The forenoon session was complet ed by the annual election of officers. E. J. Fox, of the Northampton bar, and former justice af the Supreme Court, was elected president; Jesse E. B. Cunningham, Dauphin; John A. Nauman, Lancaster; Paul H. Gaither, Westmoreland; John S. Rilling, Erie, vice-presidents; Harold B. Beitler, Philadelphia, secretary; Samuel E. Basehore, Mechanicsburg, treasurer. The executive committee chosen is; M. W. Chamberlain. Northumber land; Watson R. Davidson, Franklin: Edward B. Farr, Wyoming; John M. Harris, Lackawanna; Henry Hippie, Lycoming; George Hay Kain, York; Evan C. Jones, Luzerne; William J.
