GODSOL CASEIS
POSTPONED AGAIN
AWAITING PAPERS

Repeated challenges By former
Senator Joseph W. Bailey, counsel for
Frank. J. Godsol, charged with taking
100000 in graft in connection with
contracts for furnishing automobiles
to the French government. were ig.
nored by District Attorney Laskey,
representing the Government, at the
hearing before United States Commits
sioner Isaac R. Hit yesterday after
noon.
Bailey offered to withdraw the mo-
tons for dismissal of the complaint
as filed by him at a previous hearing,
IL the Government would agree to
proceed on the complaint upon which
Godsol had been arrested and COM
mitted. He also offered to waive all
technical objections II the Govern
ment would produce the papers from
France which are believed to consti-
tute the formal Indictment Of Godsol.
These papers, 1t is openly charged by
Godsol, have been found insufficient
to warrant his extradition, and he Is
being held in Jail while another set
OF papers are being procured from
France.
Stakes Reputation.
Bailey made the assertion yesterday
that he would stake his reputation as
lawyer upon IL that Godsol would
never be tried upon the charges on
which he was arrested.
The outcome of yesterdays hearing,
which was to be only on the motions
for the dismissal OF the complaint
against Godsol, was that Commits
sioner Hit postponed further action
on the matter until all the papers in
the case-mearing those from France
were before the court. The date Of
April 10 was set with the understand
ing that II the papers are fled earlier,
the case will be heard at an earlier
dated.
The hearing yesterday was largely de-
voted to Senator Bailey's protests
against the unfairness Of holding his
client in jail, pending the fling Of the
papers from France.
We know such papers have arrived
here. and are In the hands OF the French
representatives" he explained. I do
