tack on Prosecution.
Chicago, Aug. 16-Plans of the de-
Tense in the cases of the indicted
packing firm officials on the charges
of violating the antitrust and inter-
state commerce law have been COM
pleted and steps will be taken to at
tack the position Of the prosecution
as soon as the federal courts open IN
October.
1t was announced yesterday that the
trial of the case in which Attorney
Joseph Weissenbach is one of the de-
PENDANTS may be prevented by the fed
eral authorities and that a nolle PROSE-
qui motion may be made before Weis-
senbach and the other defendants APP
pear in court and demand a trial
Friends of Weissenbach declare that a
complete vindication demands that
there be either a full trial or if the
federal authorities drop the case that
they should make public explanation
and an admission that they have made
a mistake.
Motions to Quash Prepared.
1t has now been definitely agreed up
on by some OF the lawyers representing
made upon the prosecution before the
defendants are called into court 70
plead, or before the arraignment. MO-
tons to quash the indictments have
been prepared and will be made soon
after the courts convene.
The federal officials explained Mon
day that the issue of federal subpoe-
mas dated the first day of the October
term does not mean that the cases will
be called for trial at that time. The
federal officials expect a formal de-
mand for bill of particulars In each
Of the indictments from the defend
ing lawyers when the cases are f1rs'
called and before they go to trial.
Right is Conceded.
In view of the fact that there has
been no preliminary hearing at which
the packing officials would have an
opportunity to face their accusers and
explain the statements of the witnesses
the federal officials concede the de-
PENDANTS rights to hill of particulars
