President Roosevelt to intercede
in their behalf.

proved by a dozen livestock men who
said they were the Resolutions Com
mittee of the protesting farmers who
met at Fremont, declared that dur
ing the last week. because of the
break in prices of live animals mar
keted. producers and feeders have
lost hundreds Of thousands of dol
lars
The telegram declared the request
to withhold the marketing of
slaughter livestock would be made
ito save the producers from these
losses during periods of uncertain
ties
A decision to keep slaughter ami
mails off the market would not
mean a strike in production, because
the production of meat tonnage
would continue on animals in feed

Defense Asked DeIoy
Due to Wife's Condition

The trial of Thomas William Clat-
terbuck was postponed today to
July 26 because his wife is expecting
A child soon. and she is considered
an important witness in the case.
DR.. R. G. Stoneburner. Purcellville

ness at the time originally set for
the trial, June 80. Mrs. Clatter-
buck, it was said. expects her fifth
child early in July.
Maj. Robert A. Mcintyre of War
renton, Va, defense counsel. in
asking for the postponement, told

ney Charles F. Harrison revealed
that Clatterbuck would be tried for
the murder of Walter Russell. tenant
farmer on the Love estate and one
of the five victims named in the in
dictments against Clatterbuck.

than the prominent Loudoun County
farmer, A. Morris Love, who with his
wife and son, and Russells wife also
was killed on June /. it was assumed
that the prosecutor believed he had

brought to the Love farm by Clatter-
buck, was said to have been found
beside the body of the tenant farmer.

Viereck Described
As Derisive VioIator
OF American Laws
U. S. Charges OF TriuI
He Set Up Machinery
To Propnqundize Nation
Earlier Story on Page A-3D

George Sylvester Viereck, German
propagandist on trial for violations
OF the Foreign Agents Registration
Act, was described today as "a will
full, derisive violator of the law"
who set up IAN American front" for
the dissemination of Nazi propagan-
da in this country.
The charges came from George
A. McNulty. special assistant to the
Attorney General, as the Govern
ment opened its case in District
Court before jury of five women
and seven men.
Following an hour long statement
by Mr.. .McNulty, Justice Bolitha J.
Laws adjourned the trial until 10
am. Monday. The defense. repre-
sented by Attorneys Leo A. Rover
and John J. Wilson, deferred MAX
ing an opening statement.
MI. McNulty charged that Viereck
was the originator of "a scheme
whereby propaganda was engi-
neered into the Congressional
Record" and then distributed by
the hundreds of thousands-at the
expense of the taxpayer He
further declared Viereck had been
on friendly terms with the late
Senator Lundeen, an ardent iso-
lationist, and frequently helped
him prepare speeches.
"Viereck was no amateur in the
art of propaganda" Mr., McNulty
told the jurors, land in fact,
boasted of being an expert in every
technique of propaganda"
He said that the Government
would attempt to prove that Viereck
sent weekly reports to a Munich
newspaper, which found their way
to the German Foreign Office. The
Government also will show. he said.
that Viereck was lin direct and
intimate contact with the German

trance into the war.

By the Associated Press.
James F. Lincoln, president of
the Lincoln Electric Co., Cleve-
land, Ohio, told the House Naval
Affairs Committee today he be-
lieves renegotiation of war con-
tracts removes incentive for in
creased production.
"Renegotiation is So name for a
very old and much used policy Mr..
Lincoln testified. The previous
name for it was piecework wage
cutting"
Committee members took exception
to many of his statements, but Mr..
Lincoln stuck by his guns that rene
gotta ton of Navy contracts would
lessen production.
Discourages Efficiency.
IF you are going to penalize a
man for doing a good job he as
serted, ''he is not going to do it,
Mr.. Lincoln said his company,
which makes arc welding machines,
had steadily reduced prices, even
during war years. and maintained
that renegotiation should not be ap-
piled to standard commercial prod
ucts having general peace time USE,
which were made and sold prior to
the war at standard published list
price and now are being sold as the
same product pursuant TO standard
published price list,
Mr.. Lincoln said his company now
Uas lin the process Of renegotla-
ton but had not yet held any con-
ferences with the Navy.
There is little doubt that the re-
negotiation threat to that part OF
industry which as yet has not been
renegotiated, has already cost the
Government many additional bill
lions of dollars by reduced eff
ciency," Mr.. Lincoln said Human
nature does not accept, without pro-
test, the idea of rewarding lazineSs
and incompetence and penallzing ef-
ficiency and genius
Taxes Recapture Profits.
He agreed with members of the
committee that huge, unWarranted
war profits should not be allowed.
but declared he belieged that where
such profits occur the profit should
be reduced by friendly negotiation
rather than forcing reduction
through law.
The witness said that while the
Navy estimated it had recovered ST.
100000, 900 by renegotiation. 80 per
cent of it would have been recap
tureo by taxes and that the saving
to the Government actually was
only 100000
Every dollar which is recovered
by renegotiation only nets the Gov
ernment 10 cents, since 80 cents
would have been recovered by the
present tax law" the witness said.
However, every dollar Of increased
cost, because of the incentive elimi-
mated by renegotiation, results in
80 cents of loss to the Government
for exactly the same reason. Hence,
if renegotiation does not recapture
nine times the amount sacrificed by
loss of incentive. it must. of neceS-
sity, lose money for the taxpayer
