in alleged conspiracy to dynamite en-
tente munition ships leaving the Unit

counsel for the defense, interrupted
the governments progress by assert
ing that this witness (Smith) is a
convicted felon and as such cannot
be heard in this court
Roche specified Smiths alleged fell

court-martialed on charge Of mis-
conduct, and punished. I'VE expect

Roche announced.
Smith took a seat in the court room

charge does not constitute "a felony
The court gave the defense until
Monday to prove that Smith is a felon

timony of O. G. Olsen, a Tacoma tug
boat man, who said Smith, under the
name of walter Brown" bought 200
