Appearing before the annual meet- ing of the board, at the Methodist Ruilding, 100 M nd avenue, Sen- ator Fess and Dr. Wilson both point- jed to the President's position as ex- { pressed In his annual message to Con- | gress yesterday as proof of the Presi- | dent’s attitude. Scores Gov. Smith. Dr. Wilson, in his annual report, also declared personally he wished “we had let the Democrats nominate Al Smith, on a wet platform. “Smith will go down in the history of our times as the violator of his | oath of office and the would-be nulli- fier of his country's Constitution.” Senator Fess, addressing the exec- utive session of the board, was said | to have indorsed the Coolidge posi- tion on law enforcement, and to have stressed the necessity for carrying out the President’s suggestions. Bishop William McDowell, president of the board, presided. 4 Dr. Wilson, who was one of those who recently withdrew from the united committee for law enforcement after the committee's report to Presi- dent Coolidge laying responsibility on the Chief Executive for failure of law enforcement, declared, “We have not jolned with those ‘who set at nought dominion and rail at dignities.’ “The President has shown that by orderly processes prohibition has be- come the law of the land and that it is the duty of every one who lives under the protection of our laws to !observe the spirit of the law.” Confldence in Administration. Expressing confidence in the ad- ministration of prohibition, Dr. Wil- son said, “We believe that the new organization under Gen. Lincoln C. Andrews promises a better enforce. ment.” Dr. Wilson said: “The Government is not alone re- sponsible for lax enforcement. Our reform leaders slowed down and let themselves be put on the defensive should have advanced on . “We have men with great fortunes sleeping in safety because they are protected by the laws of the country, who are doing all they can to break down the authority of the laws to | which they owe their lives, their for- | tunes and their safety.

For the second time since the Mitchell court-martial was organized Lieut. Col. Joseph I. McMullen, the original first assistant trial judge ad- vocate, yesterday afternoon got an active part in the proceedings of the prosecution against the accused, and. as viewed from the gallery, he acquit. ted himself to the satisfaction of | everybody. Col. McMullen conducted the direct examination of three general staff officers, and his road was made bumpy by the numerous rocks tossed in by Representative Frank R. Reld, chief clvillan defense counsel. Col. McMul- len, who has flery red hair and an unmistakably Celtic physiognomy, fired back shot for shot. His repartee, directed at Mr. Reid through the medium of the court, brightened up the dry, technical testimony of the witnesses. On_one occasion, when Mr. Reld asked Lieut. Col. Joseph A. Baer “Just what does the general staff do?” the bulky frame of the trial judge advocate arose and spoke: “Your honor. in the liberality of dealing with the defense this court has been al- most British. But I still contend we are confronted with American rules of evidence, which say that cross-ex- amination shall be only on the sub jects discussed in direct examinatio and, pounding the table, “I object.” Mr. Reld replied characteritically: “He is almost British in the under- standing of this case.” Col. McMullen has participated in 400 courts-martial and 300 clvil cases. He has won all of those he prosecuted and 90 per cent of those he defended. Instructors Named. Maj. Omer A.
