Difficulties confronting the Gov
ernment in trying to arrive at the
income tax on such an intricate and
decentralized business as the num-
bers game were described in District
Court today by H. Watson Leese,
Internal Revenue agent, testifying
at the retrial of the Warning income
tax fraud case.
In response to question by
Justice Bolitha J. Laws, Mr.. Leese
said there was no way of telling
whether the books of such concern
were correct or 'doctored" since it
wasn't practicable to find out in
dependently how the wagering pub
lie had Jared in it's efforts to beat
the game from day to day. You
simply had to take the totals which
the numbers operator had listed
under wins" and hits
Turned to Expenditures.
The Warning books. he admitted,
were all right so far as he knew,
except for certain errors in addition
and subtraction which were dis
covered in an audit at the Bureau
of Internal Revenue. He added
that they had been forced to drop
the books and consider expenditures
in trying to decide what the three
Warning brothers owed, because in
vestigation had revealed that they
were spending more than they had
accounted for in their income tax
returns.
Justice Laws asked Mr.. Leese if
he had found crooked books in pre-
vious Investigations of income taxes.
This was the first numbers case
I'd had" Mr.. Leese replied.
Justice Laws explained that he
meant any type of business. The
witness said he had not found such
books. He added that he knew no
way of telling whether books were
correct or doctored without sup
porting data. In other cases, he
explained, such fraud as padded
inventories had been discovered.
Justice Laws plans to hold court
session tomorrow morning instead
of taking the usual weekend re-
cess from Friday to Monday. This
is being done in an effort to speed
up the trial because the jury is
being kept in custody.
Witness, Counsel Clash.
The mild-mannered revenue agent
spoke sharply as he was nettled by
attempts of Harry T. Whelan, at
torney for Emmitt Warning. to pin
him down on certain points. Wit
ness and counsel clashed repeatedly.
Irwin Goldstein, attorney for Cor
don L. r. Sadur, the public ac-
countant who is on trial with the
Warnings, objected to voluntary
statements" by the witness, declar-
ing that if Mr.. Leese kept it up he
was liable to get us all into trou-
ble." Justice Laws told the witness

but not on our stage. 1t has given
Mr.. Massey unique significance in
the theater.
When he was assigned the part
there was some caviling here and
there about such role being given
to British subject. That has all
been forgotten. Both Robert E.
Sherwoods play and Mr.. Massey's
impersonation have made the uni
versatility of Lincoln as clear and
authentic as the timeless and bound
less histrionics of a Greek classic.
Mr.. Massey, however, has no Brit
ish accent, and even his dry and
resonant voice fits the historic de-
scription of Lincoln's speech. His
mother was native of Erie, Pa, and
his fathers mother came from
Gloversville, N. Y. His ancestors
came to New England in 1929, 10
years ahead of Lincolns. He was
born in Toronto, Canada, and was
educated in England, at oxford Uni.
versity. His home is there.
His stage career began when he
was end-man in a minstrel show,
providing entertainment for British
soldiers in Siberia. He had been
a captain of the Canadian Field Ar
tillery in the World War, wounded
at Ypres. In the months of his con-
valescence he was military instruc-
tor at Yale and Princeton. His first
professional stage appearance was
in 1922, in the London production Of
Eugene O'Neill's In the Zone" In
Toronto his wealthy father, manu-
featuring farm implements, had
started him selling plows. Having
put his hand to the plow, he
promptly turned back and got q
letter to John Drew which brought
about his London stage connection.
Robert E. Sherwood saw his Ham
let" in 1881 and rushed to his dress
ing room to start a friendship and

The Political Mill
6. o. P. Support Of Defense Program
Serves as Warning to Dictotors

Despite this questioning attitude
on the part of Senators, the defense
bill is expected to pass the Upper
House, too, by large vote. The
program now advanced, however,
Is more modest than had been at
first expected by the critics of great
ly increased ornaments.
Shows Constructive Trend.
The action of the House Repub-
licans on the defense program is
constructive. In fact, the House Re-
the Senate, too
could with advantage regard this
action as precedent. The G.. o. P.
in Congress has been prone in re-
cent years to let. issues slide, or at
least merely to criticize. There was
no hint of such an attitude in the
report on national defense, which
set forth clearly and in detail the
reasons for the Republican position.
The Republicans will have oppor-
tunity in the near future to outline
their position-in constructive
manner, also-on the administra-
tion's public health program, on
Amendments to the Wagner Labor
Relations Act, on the reorganization
bill, on the new relief program now
in the making and on other major
issues and measures that are to
come before Congress for considera-
ton.
If there is one point on which the
foreign powers should be fully in
formed, it is that the United States
proposes to prepare adequately to
defend itself. Adequate preparation
for defense against any attack is
far more potent than any exchange
of epithets, insults, or just plain
criticism that American and Euro
pean officials or the press of the
various countries may indulge in. 1t
is something that can be readily
understood by the dictator govern
ments, as we'll as others.
Couple this increased and ade-
quate defense with clear notice that
the United States will not tolerate
any deviation from the Monroe
Doctrine and there can be no doubt
in the minds of the foreign nations
where this country stands. Ade-
quate defense, as the G. o. P. state
ment sets forth, means defense of
the Panama Canal; it means de-
fense of the Atlantic and the Pacific
Coasts through adequate naval bases,
air bases, ships and men, and it
means that no foreign power will be
permitted to establish base within
the Western Hemisphere from which
to attack the United States, now or
in the future.
