day In his own behalf well toward
the close of session which began
with the discharge of Juror L. A.
Leavitt be<huse of illness and the
substitution OF Alternate Juror a. Nj.
Blakeley, and which otherwise was
consumed largely by arguments In
the brief time he was OH the stand.
Darrow refuted testimony by George
Benin and Bert Franklin which had
been considered as very damaging to
his case.
The long anticipated appearance OF
the noted lawyer defendant In the role
of witness came after the second futile
attempt by the defense TO get possess
sion Of the grand jury testimony Of
o. A. Tveitmoe. the San Francisco
labor leader, and u successful effort

ney.

and Frank NJ Ryan. Ryan, at the
time, was secretary Of the lnterna-
tional Association of Bridge 4 Struc-
tural Iron Workers and Rappaport
was attorney for the same organiza-
tion. The documents were wanted, ac-
corling to the defense. for the pur-
pose of refreshing the memory of the
witness or to be produced as evidence
In support OF his testimony.
Mr.. Darrow gave his age az SO. next
April. and said he had been practlcing
law for 80 years. He gave brief
history of his various important em-
ployments and a brief account OF his
record as n representative OF organized
labor. detailing the numerous cases In
which he acted ne arbiter. in many of
which. he said, labor disputes were
referred solely to him by both sides
In the controversy
Darrow then told of his reluctance
In accepting the Mcnamara case and
the influence brought to bear upon him
by leaders of organized labor to de-
fend the accused dynamiters, which
finally resulted In his coming to Los
Angeles. He narrated In chronological
order his preparations for defending
the brothers.
