STRUCK FROM CALENDAR

SEATTLE, Oct. 25. (P)-In an effort to save the remaining big liquor con- spiracy cases from the fate of those tried this month the Government struck from the calendar the socalled Comstock conspiracies which were scheduled to come up for trial this week.
 Federal Judge Neterer advised the Federal attorneys to eliminate the de- fendants against whom evidence was weak. This action followed the yer dict in the second Olmsted case and the acquittal of all the defendants in the Snohomish county liquor ring trial.
 In the Olmsted case 77 were indicted and 40 brought to trial and IA convict ed. The Government attorneys char acterized the conviction of the IA as a victory but, court followers termed it a failure saying all heads of the smuggling ring escaped while petty offenders were convicted.
 The Comstock conspiracies involve Police Lieutenant George Comstock as the principal defendant and B oth- CTS including eight other policemen.
