SAYS ARMY CHIEF
Release at End of Year
Would Be Fundamental,
Tragic Error Is Assertion
Washington, July 17,
General Ceorge C. Marshall,
army chief of staff, testified to
day that there was an "urgent
necessity" from a military
standpoint for congress to de
clare a national emergency un
der which selectees, reserves
and national guardsmen could
V be retained in service beyond
. the present one-year period.
From the strategic point of
view, the army chieftain told
the senate military committee,
the efficiency of the war depart
ment and the military forces
would be greatly Improved if
congress would act to clear
away present prohibitions
against longer service.
Would Be Tragte
To release the emergency
soldiers at the end of a year, he
declared, would be "a funda
mental and tragic error" which
would increase the chances of
war. The present danger to the
nation was "far greater" than
when congress inaugurated the
selective service program last
fall, he said.
At the same time, Marshall
told the committee it was ab
surd to believe he had an Amer
ican expeditionary force in
J, mind when he recommended
continuing in service beyond a
year the selectees, national
guardsmen and reserves.
Testifying on legislation to
lengthen the service of the
emergency troops, the general
said in reply to questions by
Senator Austin (R., Vt.) that he
would much prefer that con
gress declare flatly that the na
tion was imperilled, thus giving
the war department more "el
bow room" in which to work.
The whole thing that re
mains," Marshall said, "is, 'is
there an emergency?' I say

(By Associated Press)
Mountain thunderstorms start
ed more forest fires almost as
fast as others were controlled
today in California. Nearly
3,000 men waged an unceasing
battle on widespread fronts.
About 300 separate conflagra
tions were reported in 10 of
California's national forests, but
only a few were in valuable
timber and no settlements ap
peared endangered.
The largest blaze was in the
Modoc forest in the far north
east part of the state, where
90.000 acres already had been
burned over. The fire was still
burning today but had not
spread appreciably, the U. S.
forest service said.
Most of the 300 conflagrations
were in the five national forests
near the northern fringe of the
state Modoc, Shasta, Klamath,
Trinity and Lassen. Others were
in five east-central forests
Stanislaus, 1 Dorado, Tahoe,
Sequoia and Plumas.
as entered may be amended ac
cordingly." No Conspiracy Seen
The high tribunal said the
record is entirely devoid of tes
timony tending to establish Mrs.
Hanley's theory that Most and
Mrs. Bevan entered into a con
spiracy to profit at the expense
of Hanley or the community.
Mr. Hanley is still manager of
I uie community, ana ne is me
only one qualified to speak for
it . . . and any request for re
moval of the trustee (Joe Most)
must come from Hanley, the
court said in answering another
request by Mrs. Hanley,
As to allegations of the con
fession with respect to alleged
invalidity of Intermediary con
tracts between Hanley and Most,
the court said the matters are
separate and distinct from this
appeal . . . and should be deter
mined in a separate suit.
As to Hanley the case was re
manded as indicated and as to
the other respondents. Most and
Bevan, the lower court judg
ment was affirmed.
After trial in lower court,
which issued an injunction pre
venting disposition of property
and restraining other defend
ants from further exercising any
power under the voting trust
agreements, the above referred
to sale of stock to Most by Han
ley was entered into.
After learning of the contracts
Mrs. Hanley brought contempt
proceedings against Most.
In a separate opinion, the
court said it was of the opinion
it would be better to defer the
matter of punishment for con
tempt of Most for violating the
provision of the order prohibit
ing transfers, until it is deter
mined whether he also violated
the gift provision. For that rea
son, the case was remanded to
the superior court to proceed
as the high court indicated.

A lazy downward trend was ex
hibited by most stock market
leaders today although scattered
favorites managed to contest the
drift with modest advances.
Hesitancy was tha rule at the
start and losses of fractions to a
point ox so were widely distrib
uted at the close. Lack of. im
portant offerings, however, was
comforting to bullish opponents.
Transfers of around 900.000
shares were the smallest for a
full stretch since July 3..
