Alcorn Asks Jury For Verdict OF Guilty For AM Defendants

Attorney Hugh Alcorns closing argument to the jury was as follows:
 May it please the court, ladies and gentlemen of the jury: The time a. ways comes to make your life worthwhile. Sooner or later, no mat ter what our position in life may be, that some time before life ends, there will be an opportunity afford cd to us all 10 make our life very worthwhile. And it was once said of Theodore Roosevelt that in all the work that he accomplished, if he had done nothing more than to have written that wonderful book, The Winning of the West" it would have been all that was neces- Sary. So say to you, that same op- portunity comes to all of us at some time or another. I think it is now here to you; I think that opportuni- ty has been given me throughout the arduous hours that have been put here to do something that would justify, even in itself, the life we live.
 Now, I don't look upon this task that is before you as a reSponsibil- ity, ladies and gentlemen. look up- on it as an opportunity-an oppor- tunity for real public service. That opportunity came to us; that, oppor- tunity has come to you. And I have no doubt that you will meet it. I must be careful in speech and I must be circumspect in speech, and in the short time that I shall ad- dress you, I shall endeavor to fol- low the admonition to be careful i'll what say. I have been pounded aplenty by the group who have sat behind me. They have indulged in more abuse than I think was ever indulged in by any one in any court of justice, anywhere, at any time.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1939-08-11

Mitchell. The states attorneys as. sistant insisted that at the meetings of the board of finance Hayes had to have his "man Friday" to be sure he wouldn't make mistakes. He referred to Kelly.
 "Levy was the man they dealt with" he said in his brief argument. He claimed that the defense put Levy in the same light as he placed James P Purcell. That because they gave him a job and money he never should have told his story in the trial
 That is their idea of loyalty" he cried.
 Never Known
 Mitchell pointed to Warren M. Browns testimony that million dollars is still gone, that 1t was handled irregularly at the Water bury Trust Go. and that 1t would never be known where it went.
 If all was all right. he asked why was Kelly 50 anxious to know what George Horwitz was going to tell the jury.
 If the contract was all right why did he say that all the checks were gone but one and there was no rea- son to worry.
 Kelly knew about the entire transaction and he wanted to cover up," said Mitchell. Doesn't 1t all corroborate Levy"
 The prosecutor claimed that Hayes played within his character role when he gave Horwitz the once over at his office, the same day Kelly told Horwitz that Hayes would take care of Levy's income tax difficul. ties.
 When he said hello to Horwitz, he was acting in character and as- surfing Horwitz" cried Mitchell. Leary told Mackenzie and William- son not to worry that their checks were gone, and Olsen told Levy to say concerning his dealings with Waterbury that 1t was a client at torney arrangement, he claimed.
 They wanted Levy, Mackenzie and Williamson to say that they went to the Waterbury Trust Co.,. and cashed their checks, he said. Tt was a conspiracy from the be- ginning and they tried to cover up."
 They concocted stories for Peters and the rest, Mitchell said, even for Brice and Carroll the two city hall janitors. And the most McDon- ough could say against the two jam itors was express his wonder as to how much pressure was brought on them."
 He referred to Peters back &C., count which was pencilled to con- form with huge withdrawals. Olsen. Brand Boy
 "Olsen," he said, was the errand boy who remained an errand boy although he became vice-president of the bank"
 Olsen told Loomis. he said that Reilly. the janitor said he was go- ing to say he burned the bank rec- ords. olsen met with the various accused, he said, including Borgnaes Leary, Minor and others.
 Similarity of methods. he said" it would be impossible for all the people to prepare their stories t they didn't.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1939-08-11

It is difficult to sit there and take 1t. But regard it as a part of the opportunity that I have had to con- tribute. at least in some way, in the performance of a great public ser- vice.
 Called Liars, Rats
 They called MT. Brown liar; they called him perjurer, and they called him a dog. And MT. Murray, from whom I expected better things, joined in the endorsement of the abuse in his endorsement of MT. McDonough's speech. MT. Murray said that; he used such words as sewer rats"; he referred to lad ies' toilet which MT. Hickey took a witness to, when the fact is that 1t was the press room in the courthouse here, in the room above, adjacent to that particular room of which he spoke. He talked about pole cats; he used the word "swill". And they have subjected not only the witness es in this case to that form of abuse but every one concerned in this case to that abuse.
 Now, that isn't what this jury wants. Whether we are entitled to 1t or not, ladies and gentlemen, 1t has no place here. And to answer 1t, I have to step down into the gut ter that they occupy when they make those statements here.
 Anyhow, ladies and gentlemen, they saw fit to attack MT. Hickey. They said he took the witness stand to put this case over so that I might put another notch in my gun. And MT. Cassidy said to the jury Don't believe him."
 We didn't burn the records in the city hall; we didn't burn the records in the street department. We didn't burn the records in the Waterbury Trust company We didn't abstract the checks and vouchers from the vault in the city hall. We didn't take the warrants payable sheets nor the encumbrance register and we didn't abstract or dispose of theml We didn't arrange for the meeting in the Crows Nest. We didn't arrange for the meetings in Danbury, and we didn't control the switch. Nor did we assist in shipping Borgnaes to Europe.
 My Friend
 Well, there was only one state- ment made in that reference to MT. Hickey with which I agree. That was this: MT. Cassidy said he was
