FIRST LADY TO KEEP
SILENT ON ALL BILLS
Mrs. Roosevelt Tells News Writ.
ers She Will Follow Prece-

Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt plans
to follow a precedent established by
the President in not commenting on
pending legislation at her press con-
ferenceS.
This developed today when she was
asked to discuss the 40-hour week bill
for women employed in the District,
introduced by Representative Norton,
Democrat, of New Jersey. Mrs. Nor
ton, who is chairman of the District
Committee. introduced the bill Febru-

told her conference today she had
decided to follow the Presidents
stand on this matter.
On Friday at noon Mrs. Herbert
Owen will present a flag to the White
House which will be received by Mrs.
Roosevelt. Mrs. Roosevelt pointed
out that although no gifts can be
permanently accepted by the White
House except by act of Congress, the
Fine Arts Commission has passed on
this flag and for the time being 1t will

MacCracken's confinement follows a
long series of incidents arising out OF
his activities as attorney for a number
of airlines. During the Black Com
mittee investigation of airmail con-
tracts, certain papers believed in the
possession Of MacCracken were sub
poenaed by the committee. The law
yer later was accused of destroying
some of the papers and was called be-
fore the Senate on charges of con-
tempt.
He and Col. L. H. Brittin, one of the
other defendants, were convicted and
sentenced to 10 days each in the Dis
trict Jail The latter served the SEN
tence last Spring. while MacCracken
chose to carry his fight into the courts.
After hearing the District Court of
Appeals uphold his contention that
the Senate lacked jurisdiction to pun
ish a private citizen, MacCracken
found his case turned down by the
Supreme Court. Although he had
until Saturday of this week to petition
the Supreme Court for a rehearing of
the case, the lawyer decided to aban-
don his fight and to enter upon his
imprisonment.
In a statement issued yesterday.
however. he continued his denials of
any wrongdoing, saying. in part:
Last February the Senate Airmail
Committee issued a subpoena calling
on me to deliver to that committee all
correspondence and other documents
iy, YlncSacSiny, rolotinO m arm q IL
contracts.
MY understanding of the legal and
moral duty of a lawyer to his clients
was and is that he cannot disclose
their communications to him. written
or oral. without their consent.
Made Documents Available.
st Immediately made available to
the Senate committee every document
in my possession excepting those
which I believed could not be released
without the consent of my clients, and
at the committees request at once
asked their instructions.
las fast as my clients consented to
the production before the Senate
Committee of their communications
TO me instantly mace them available.
Before I heard from all of my clients
the Senate issued a warrant for my
arrest for not delivering over my
clients papers. Before the service of
the warrant all Of my clients had
waived their privilege and all papers
then in my possession were delivered
to the sergeant at arms of the Senate.
There has been a great deal in the
public press about the destruction Of
papers in this case. The only papers
involved in this controversy that were
destroyed were those delivered by my
partner without my prior knowledge
or consent to a representative of one
of our clients, and those my partner
believed were of a personal nature
and not covered by the subpoena.
There was not one scintilla of evil
dence before the Senate that in any
way connected me personally with the
destruction Of any papers whatsoever
cannot make this too strong"
MacCracken, who is secretary Of
the American Bar Association, has
been practicing law in Washington
since 1929.
