Billy Mitchell
Review Slated
Washington (U.R) The
Air Force has agreed to reopen
this week the sensational 31-year-old
court martial case of
the late Gen. William L. (Billy)
Mitchell, called by many of his
admirers the "father of the U.S.
Air Force."
A spokesman said the Air
Force Corrections and Review
Board will begin reviewing the
case Tuesday.
Mitchell was court-martialled
in 1926 by a board of nine Army
generals following his vigorous
fight to support of his view that
air power should be the first line
of America's defense.
He was charged with insub
ordination after he had accused
the Army of incompetency and
inefficiency and urged creation
of a separate air arm. Mitchell,
who at the time of the case held
the permanent rank of colonel,
was suspended from his rank,
command and duty and deprived
of pay and allowances. President
Coolidge modified the sentence
to allow Mitchell half-pay.
Many of Mitchell's views were
regarded as visionary at the
time but later, turned out to be
correct. He was one of the first
to say battleships could be bomb
ed and sunk by aircraft. He also
believed future wars would be
decided in the air.
Court Reverses
Trio's Conviction
Washington (U.R) The
Supreme Court today reversed
the conviction of three persons
found giulty of hiding Commu
nist leader Robert G. Thompson
in a California mountain cabin
after he jumped bail in 1950.
The defendants were charged
with assisting a federal offender
in order to prevent his punish
ment. The court reversed their con
victions, 6 to 2, on grounds that
they were victims of an illegal
search and seizure by Federal
Bureau of Investigation agents.
The defendants will now get a
new trial.
The court rendered a short,
unsigned opinion in the case,
with Justices Harold H. Burton
and Tom C. Clark dissenting.
Justice Charles E. Whittaker
did not participate.
The three are Mrs. Shirley
Kremen, Samuel Irving Cole
man and Sidney Steinberg.
Thompson was convicted in
1949, along with 10 other high
level Communists, of conspiring
to advocate the violent over
throw of. the government. He
fled, forfeiting $20,000 bail,

Glimpse of
Atomic Laboratories
Richland, Wash. (U.R)
Newsmen entered the govern
ment's Hanford works for the
first time today to inspect labor
atories supporting the manufac
ture of plutonium, atomic wea
pons and its nuclear power
houses. Until today the entire estab
lishment, covering an area half
the size of Rhode Island, has
been off limits for reporters.
In recent years, the Atomic
Energy commission has been de
classifying many of its secrets
as worldwide familiarity with
atomic processes increased.
Result Of Trend
The tour today and a similar
one Thursday at the National
Reactor Testing Station near
Idaho Falls, Idaho, are a result
of this trend toward less secrecy.
However, the actual reactors
that produce the plutonium, the
material presumably used as
the "powder" in the A-bomD
being tested in a new series
scheduled to begin this week
in Nevada, were still shielded
from close-up views by corres
pondents. These reactors are vital to the
nation's nuclear program be
cause their transmutation of ur
anium into the artificial element
of plutonium, the available sup
ply of fissionable fuel is tre

dio newsmen were accredited
for the t o ii r. Photographers
were permitted inside the Han
ford works for two days last
week and their pictures and
film were to be released, with
stories on the reporters' visit,
