PROBE IF FAR EAST
 COMMITTEE |S HELD
 IN CONST TANT|NOPLE
[RepubIIean A. ?. Leasea wIrel

CONSTANTINOPLE, Oct l-The defense for the prisoners on trial on the charge of having defrauded the American commission for relief in the Near East rested it's case today after having called as witnesses w. w. Peet. chairman of the administrative committee; H. M. Day, president of the American Foreign Trades corporation. and other persons. The argument of the defense was that the affairs of the commission had been so conducted that it was impossible to prove the alleged shortages.
 Mir. Peet said that the Near East commission had nothing to fear from m investigation. Questioned by Julian Gillespie, counsel for the accused. Mir. Peet denied having knowledge that portions of a shipload of merchandise to the foreign trades corporal ton in July, 1919 did not pay customs to the Turks. F. w. MacAllam, treasurer of the administrative committee, denied knowledge that for a three days con ference at the end of August for 59 relief workers, held in Robert college the cost of automobiles was more than Sl.2o0. He said he knew. however, that the meals were supplied by expensive hotel caterers.
 Lieutenant Colonel Coombs. director of the Near East relief, said that two employees in bakery which furnished bread for the poor had been discharged for dishonesty in their accounts He explained the sale of merchandise valued at $350,000 to the American Foreign Trade corporation was ar ranged by Major Arnold, his predeces- sor, who, he said probably had thi: merchandise on hand as a result o bad judgment on the part of the New York office of the commission regard | ing requirements. This sale, he added was mostly in the nature of an ex | change for goods which the Americal | Foreign Trade corporation had in it l possession and which were of more us | to the community.
