Military Law Extended to Coyer Civilians Overseas Washington (U.R) The Su preme Court has extended mili tary law to cover more than 250,000 civilian dependents sta tined with the armed forces in 63 foreign countries. The court ruled in what a three-man minority called a de cision of far-reaching import ance that the civilian depend ents overseas are not constitu tionally guaranteed a jury trial and other legal safeguards en joyed by civilians at home. In stead, they are subject to mili tary courts-martial. Majority Accused Justice Felix Frankfurter in a separate opinion accused the majority of deciding the issue without adequate "reflection." The ruling came on the final day of the term along with a small avalanche of opinions and orders before adjourning until Oct. 1. Among other things, the court in a 6-3 ruling struck down Pres ident Eisenhower's 1953 order that blanketed all federal work ers wherever employed into the employee security program. The majority held that entirely aside from a orker's own char acter the order did not set up proper standards for relating a particular job to the national safety. In the field of business, the court: . 1. Threw out 4-3 government charges that E. I. DuPont de Nemours and Co. has been il legally monopolizing the cello phane market. Agreements Illegal 2. Ruled 6-3 that "fair trade" agreements between a manufac turer and an independent whole saler are illegal if the manufac turer is also a competing whole saler. Justice Tom C. Clark deliv ered the opinion on military de pendents. It upheld the convic tions of Mrs. Clarice B. Covert of Atlanta, Ga., by an Air Force court-martial in England and of Mrs. Dorothy Kreuger Smith. daughter of Lt. Gen. Walter I Krueger (ret.), by an Army court martial in Japan. Both were charged with murdering their husbands. Tests Between Army, Air Force Missiles Ruled Out Washington (U.R) Top Air Force officers today ruled out any early test between contro versial Army and Air Force anti aircraft missiles despite a sena tor's assertion that the tests will be held in the "not too distant future." One officer said that the Air Force's Talos missile could not be tested now to show whether it is superior to the Army's Nike because the Talos "is not even developed yet." Development of the missile to operational sta tus will take another year, he said. Greater Range Due Another officer said that the Talos eventually will have greater range and altitude per fotmance than the Nike. But he said such comparisons are un fair because at the moment the Nike is the nation's "only opera tional" ant i-aircraft guided missile. The officers' reactions were obtained after Sen. Dennis Cha vez (D-N.M., said Monday Con gress may order future produc tion of the Nike halted in favor of the Talos. The New Mexico Democrat, chairman of a mili tary appropriations subcommit tee, said the Talos apparenty is "a better weapon" and a show down duel will be staged to make sure. Chiefs Questioned He told reporters that if the tests bear out present indica tions, his subcommittee probably would recommend that only the Talos be bought in the-future. Earlier the subcommittee questioned the Army, Navy and Air Force chiefs of staff at a se cret hearing. Chavez said that all three military leaders, in cluding Gen. Maxwell D.. Tay lor, Army chief of staff, "thinks Talos is the best." This view was not shared by the -Army previously. Salem, the capital of Oregon, is the only major city in the state which lies within the limits of two counties.
