Because he was detained at St. Elizabeth’s Hospital after his term of Army enlistment had expired, James B. Valentine today filed suit for $25,000 damages against Dr. Wil- liam A. White, superintendent of the hospital. He had frequently demanded to be released, he states, but was refused until May 24, 1926, when a jury de- clared him to be sane following a habeas corpus proceeding. He had been sent to the hospital by military authority November 22, 1922, and was discharged from the Army January 9, 1923. He is represented by Attorney George F. Curtls.
