then this return will merely mean that
hundreds Of millions will be spent by
the worker on beer, instead of. as at
present, for milk, gasoline, tire, elec-
trio refrigerators and such. This in
itself will be a loss only slightly offsee
by the lessening Of taxes enjoyed by

Medalie spent the morning crcss-
| examining Mitchell concerning his sale

point he asked If the Mitchells never
thought of certain possible contingen-
I cies in connection with the stock trans

sham.
You have had the opportunity to
find out what was in Mrs. Mitche1l's
mind" Mitchell snapped.
Called by Defense.
Mrs Mitchell was called as the first
defense witness. but was prevented from
taking the stand by Judge Henry w.
Goddard, who remarked that neither
the Government nor the defense could
call wife to testify when her husband
was the defendant
When Mitchell said today that Me-
dale had had opportunity to find out
what was IN Mrs. MitchellS mind, the
prosecutor turned to Judge Goddard.
1T seems almost conspiracy" he
said. Ito create a dramatic situation
here out of a ruling your honor made
without any motion or action on my
part. don't know whether 1t Is being
done by counsel or the defendant HIM

Counsel Argue Exclusion.
This started lengthy argument con-
corning Mrs. Mitchell's exclusion, be-
tween Medalie and Max D. Steuer, de-
fense counsel. Judge Goddard inter-
rupted the interchange to state he had
made his ruling without motion from
either side.
do understand you to say" Steuer
exclaimed, that you made that ruling
without any conference with Govern
ment counsel?"
Il do not think it proper to enter into
any such discussion with you here" the
judge replied, but shall be glad to
discuss it with you outside the court
room.''
Medalie had Mitchell repeat how he
