Mcnamara FOR the blowing up Of The
Los Angeles Times" Building, the trial
of Clarence :. barrow was the result OF
an Indictment for the alleged bribery OF

Juror iu the Mcnamara case.
Two indictments were returned
against barrow one FOR tho Lockwood

cry OF Robert +. Balm, tho first juror
sworn in the McNamara case.
The trial on the Lockwood indictment
was begun OH May II. and just thirteen
weeks and two days elapsed before the
case went to the jury. making IT the
longest criminal trial ever held In Los
Angeles County. Approximately two
million words were transcribed bv the
