 Arguments of Counsel
 MT Rollins lawyer argued for him that, owing to his wife's illness, he had been worried and pre-occupied, and that when the customs agents failed to furnish him with the blue form which contains the law with regard to purchases abroad, he had made a nat ura1 error of omission. District At torney wise contended that MT. Rol- lins declared one dutiable article. and instanced further that he had been abroad before and was familiar with the law Moreover, an additional op- portunity to amend his declaration was given him, of which he declined to avail himself.
 Proceedings Against Family Dropped
 The total value of the articles which the former governor neglected to declare is given as S4,736. The orig inal complaint named Mrs. Rollins, his wife, and their son. Douglas, par ties to the conspiracy. but the federal grand jury today handed down but one indictment naming only the for mer governor. As soon as MT. Rol- lins learned of it he promptly en- tered his plea, and, when he had paid where it is said he paid an additional $1,500 in duties, on the understand ing that further proceedings against his family be dropped.
