JURY CONSIDERS
INDICTING MORE.
COUNTY HEADS
Action Slated as Long
Session NearS End

ROCKVILLE, Md, March 90.
With the longest single session of
o Montgomery county grand jury
scheduled to close late today, it is
expected that indictments charg
ing embezzlement Of county funds
will be returned against some pres
ent and former county officials.
States Attorney james H. Pugh
said last night that the grand
jury's study of auditing reports Of
various county departments is
fast drawing to an end and it is
only a matter of few hours be-
fore the probe will be completed.
SPECIAL AUDIT STUDIED
The indictment of three county
employees last october for embez-
element served as a signal for q
deeper audit Of their and other
officials accounts under the d.
rect supervision Of States Attor-
ney Pugh, and the present grand
Jury investigation Is now study!
ing the findings Of this special
audit, Pugh said.
There also were a number Of
minor preSentmentS, which will
total nearly $50, taken under con-
sideration by the present jury dur
ing its session Of more than a
week.
INDICTMENTS EXPECTED
Pugh said he felt that, with the
evidence presented to members of
the jury, he felt confident some
embezzlement indictments would
be returned.
Included among 26 indictments
returned last Friday was one
against E. j. Gray, former county
building inspector, who also was
indicted last September for EN-.
bezzlement. Fridays indictment
charges embezzlement Of $710 in
county funds.
Gray now is at liberty under a
$500 warrant bond and a $500
Circuit Court bond pending trial,
which probably will be set for the
spring term Of court next month.

Group Health Quiz
Asked bH Rep. ShGfer

While the House Rules Commit
tee considered the possibility Of a
sweeping investigation of medical
societies throughout the country,
Representative Paul Shafer (R)
Of Michigan today pressed for a
House District subcommittee in
quiry into the District Medical So
ciety- Group Health Association
controversy.
Mr.. Shafer, who believes that
an investigation would absolve the
local medical group from blame of
the charges brought against it
on the floor of the House, be-
ieveS that the public health sub
committee of the House District
Committee is the proper body to
conduct the inquiry.
Representative Byron Scott CD
Of California yesterday intro
duced resolution authorizing the
appointment of select commit
tee to investigate not only the
District Medical Society but also
the American Medical ASsocia ton
and all its affiliateS.
The young California Repre-.
sentative reiterated charges he
made on two former occasions on
the floor Of the House, and de
clared the District Medical So
ciety is guilty of "autocratic, domi,
neering, inhuman discrimination
against the Group Health Asso
citation.
Just as the House made ready
to adjourn last night, Representa-,
tive j. H. Voorhis CD of Cali
fornia announced his support OF
the Scott resolution, and urged
the Rules Committee to give favor
able consideration to it.
The Scott resolution instructs
the select congressional commit
tee to determine whether activi
ties of the medical groups are in
controvention of their charters OF
contrary to medical ethics and
sound public policy.

COPPER BOOSTED
BY PHELPS DODGE.
Domestic Price Is Increased
"a of a Cent a Pound
as Sales Jump.
By the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, June 30.-Phelps
Dodge Corp. announced today an in
crease Of Va of cent pound in the
price of domestic copper, bringing it to
9H cents.
The price had remained at the g.
cent level since May 10, at which time
1t was lowered from 10 cents.
Metal circles reported sharply in
creased sales after the close Of the
stock market yesterday. Influenced to
some extent by the belief the inventory
situation, bothersome to domestic pro-
ducers over a period Of months, had
greatly improved in recent weeks.
The accent rise brought the do
mestic price more in line with the for
eign markets, which have been strong
recently, with heavy turnover reported
from several centers. In London today
electrolytic wire bar metal sold as high
as $50 cents pound elf. European
base ports.
Scrap copper dealers boosted the
price of intake again today "a cent q
pound, following several boosts in this
grade of metal within the past several
weeks.
The repeatedly good improvement in
domestic demand for the red metal
and gradual scaling down Of heavy in
ventories accumulated during the lat
ter part Ct 1887, when the recession
was at its worst. has brought rumors
OF reopening Of some closed mines In
Western States, but thus far officials
Of the leading producing companies in
that area have given no indication Of
their intentions.
At this time last year domestic cop
per was selling at II cents q pound,
8 cents under the 1887 high Of II
cents. established in March during the
period Of intensive speculation in all
commodities. The 1887 low was 10
cents, quoted on December for one
day only by smelters. Producers did
not meet the quotation.
