SIX MONTHS Jail For Soldier Mo Stole For Sick Wife Says Military Court. Officers Hew To Line of Law, But Send Purse To Girl Whose Husband's Check Was Held Up. Twenty-Nine Privates in 330th Regiment at Camp Merman Become Noncommissioned Officers. OTCuitiiriTri. io rurmi rnip Sherman.

Ohio. January a- Tlitre la a Inok of perplexity to-night on ha face of the blind goddess wno eishs justice at Camp Sherman. The puuled look came to justice wnen lesrncil of the action taken by IS military cfnrers who aat In Judgment onr Private Charles R. Brooker, wra- c. Three Hundred and Eighth Field Signal Battalion, aummoned before them le answer the charge of stealing fountain pen and a safety rasor from Seneant llannan.

In a voice eloquent and tender emnriea Private Brooaer recitea nie Ufa rtory. He took his llateners to a 'lit' tl town on the shores of Lake- Erie and there Introduced them to a fair- haired maid who" had lived a protected llfa for summers. She never had kiuiwn want. Her achool days were Dined In uoetry'a roay realm. Things commercial puuled her.

Then Came a Dayl Then came a day when the town folk rejoiced and danced and "Charley" Brooker took the maid for his wife. One hundred dollara a month provided an the comforts small town folks 'desired ind the house of Brooker was happy. The silver lining dropped from the clouds, however, with the coming' of war, the draft and enforcement of a law which knows no sentiment, Brooker marched away with other boys of the town, leaving behind the girl wife, pondering over the mechanism of governmental machinery which left her husbandleas. With winter came Illness. And I'ncle Seat's pay checks to his soldiers became eatagled In red tape and were many dare late In reaching their destination.

The wife needed medicine. She was tee proud to ask- aid of her parent Tries Only Way Out. Her soldier husband tried to borrow from his comrades, but they, too, were fundless, victims of Ted tape. The necessity for medicine remained. Raiors and fountain pens were pawn-able and Brooker took them.

The money went to the country 'doctor and the druggist. (a. Major R. Graves. Three Hundred and Thirty-first Infantry, Prealdent of theCourt; Lieutenant Ray Hyre, Three Hundred and Thirty-second Infantry, Judge Advocate, and 11 other officers heard Private Brooker tell his story.

Military law knows neither necessity nor sentiment. Certain punishments are made to lit rertaln crimes. The vote was taken and Private Brooker was found guilty and sentenced to six months at hard labor in quarters. The scales In Justice's hands welshed evenly. The Court-martial adjourned.

uutsiae me courtroom, their military duty performed, the 13 men met In the unshlne. There was a short consultation. Pursestrinra were loosened "Where Mercy Comas In. An officer went to Chllllcotha and last night a box. heavily laden with fresh fruit, was sent to the little sick woman if hear Uke Erie.

And on top was a ello.iaikeU cold certificate and a mes-ge of hone and good cheer. And the scales of the blind goddess on even balance to-night, although the holder uf them Is perplexed.

"It was the Indefinite threat of anni hilation hy restrictive orders which during the Isst two or three months haa alarmed the leaders of business snd Committees representing various groups Industries will be shown by the Administration the amount of coal available for all purposes, the amount re quired for war purposes and domestic consumers, and the total curtailment which must be effected to supply these demands. They will be asked on patriotic grounds, well as for their own future interests, volunteer a reduction In consumption to advise the best method of curtailment so as to affect" the leas essential portions of their own business.

All arrangements will be made hy manufacturers themselves, but wnf)n agreement had been reached Fuel Administration will issue for orders, carrying an tne penalties provided by the food control law, making the agreement applicable to the entire Curtailment Will Vary. Percentages of curtailment probably vary In different industries, but be estimated In every case with a view to a practicable and economical I shrinkage of output In proportion as an Industry contributes less of domestic industries, to war It naturally will Increas, its "contribution of self-limitation." Elasticity of the plan la regarded by Fuel Administration aa one of Its chief assets. The curtailment of coal when completed, will consumption, equalise theoretically the coal dem.nd the country with the supply for 191 J. If '-ter It develop, that there still a pruss "ivht, sm ntiHiii. in th curtailment can arranged quickly and without con- fusion.

The plan was summarised by Fuel Administration, as follows: "The new plsn hitches up all the In dustries of the country to the fuel budget, and gives them, which la all they ask. the fullest liberty of action. excepting liberty to use coal needed war purposes.
