court OF the prisoner.
II have not, your honor. only that
it was because OF long line of do

improper in the life of Mrs. Sudman
"Of course. il does not excuse"
he said. You did not have to live
with your wife, but am not going to
give you any lecture. If you are con-

Within two hours after he was SEN

McNamaras should show such yei-

"OrganiZed labor defended the Nc
Namaras because they thought them

who we're trying to kill organized
labor through the McNamaras. For
that reason, we thought IL right and
proper to subscribe big sums of mon
