HOUSE OF DAVID
LOSES AN APPEAL
Judge Refuses to Dismiss Action
Against It

Judge Louis H. Fead yesterday de-
MED a motion by Attorney William
j. Barnard. chief defense counsel.
to dismiss the states suit to dis
solve the House OF David as a pub
lie nuisance.
In brief opening statement fol-
lowing Judge Fead's denial Of the
motion, Attorney H. T. Dewhirst for
the colony announced the defense
would stand on the answer to the
states charges as filed. This in
cludes a complete denial of all
charges Of immortality on the part
Of BENJAMIN. Purnell. head of the
colony, and denial Of the use Of
religion to screen crime or to de-
fraud those who Joined the colony.
The defense based its motion to
dismiss on the promise that the IS
women who took the stand for the
state accused Benjamin Purnell
alone.
Attorneys contended as a matter
of law that a public nuisance must
be general. notorious and continu-
ing before court could dissolve an
organization on that ground. 1t was
further insisted that Benjamin had
the right to have his guilt or inno-
cence defended by a jury IN a
criminal proceeding and not in a
citil case before a Judge alone.

The creation of a permanent semi

goal today of the anthracite CO..

This proposed board, with the

fluence over the hard coal industry,
if the hopes of its sponsors are
crowned with success. The boards
three principal purposes would be
to insure clean coal for the con.
sumers, to create new sales fields
for the operators and to prevent
future strikes.
II would function over the
anthracite industry much like the

Under present plans, the pro.
posed board would comprise 81
members of whom five would
represent the miners, five the

directors to a much larger organi.
