prosecution under his Indictment in
the Grand Trunk case because of his
testimony at the New Haven investiga-
ton, according to the department of
justice. As a result, a bitter contro-
versy has arisen between the attorney
general and the friends of Mr. Mel
len, who insist that he would not have
been witness if he had not received
an immunity bath.
John w. I'll. Grim, counsel for Mellen,
felt so confident that his client could
NOT be prosecuted after his Grand
Trunk testimony that he notified the
department of justice that Mellen was
immune. The department could not
see the situation in the same light as
Mr.. Grim, and the latter will, in a
short time, file a plea at bar, which
means that the question of immunity
will be tested before the courts.
