Miss Billingsley told how Hart
ford had asked her for money
from time to time, once obtaining
500. She said she started keeping
records when she realized her re-
sponsibility.
On direct examination, Miss
Billingsley said Hartford came 10
her last May during the inveSti-
cation of the base and wanted to
know what he owed.
II told him i figured II was
about $500 and he paid" she
said.
Her figures showed all fund
money accounted for after the
5000 payment but the prosecution
alleges the fund is short S403 81

STRONG INFERENCEs

STRONG INFFRENCES
1.-THE prosecution has raised
strong differences in this case"
said Mai. Ballantine, but has
failed 10 produce evidence suffi-
cient TO remove reasonable
doubt.
There Is not a single Scintilla
OF evidence that Maj. Hartford
embeZZled a dime or that the
expense vouchers were false. IL
would stain court-martial rec
Ords to convict a man on the
testimony presented in this
case"
Capt. Irving II. Green, trial
Judge advocate. argued against
the motion, charging that Hart
ford had willfully- converted funds
TO his own use over a period of
months and had not paid them for
a year.
His intent Is proven by the
fact he returned the money only
when the investigation was
under way at Selfridge," Green
said.

tives, coastal vessels and barges.
One Typhoon squadron surprised
a German convoy in the Rhine
estuary and sank tug and dam
aged two other vessels.
Seven FAF p'ol y ere listed as
missing in sn air ministry COM
munique.
Today's attack was the third re-
cent American raid in which the
Germans reported that the heavy
planes were bombing through the
clouds, indicating they are now op.
Grating in weather which formerly
kept them grounded. This develop.
ment was predicted early in Sep.
tember by Allied aerial chieftains ir
order to multiply the scope of the
forces operations.
Shooting apparently for a recoro
month of operations, the American
heavy bombers are keeping up theil
pace of better than raid every
three days. Today's attack was the
seventh big aerial blow at Axis-helc
Europe in six days.
England, meanwhile, had its
fourth raid-free night in a row
Friday night, but the Germans were
kept awake by Raj Mosquitoes which
blasted unspecifled targets in West
ern Germany. The heavy RAJ
bombers laid off for the night, bu
fighter command planes, harassine
the enemy coast, sank an enemy
patrol vessel off Boulogne and sho
up railroad facilities in Northern

ment of availability from his en-
ployer. The worker either quit on
the spot or went to the USES for
a statement. Refused the release
the worker then decided to get q
job without q statement, but found
that every place he went statement
was required.
Usually, the VINO spokesman said,
workers are back on their old jobs
in less than a week.
Despite the frightened controls on
the movement of workers, however
some employers are still complain
ing that they are losing their hard
to-replace workers. If the employer
knows where his workers have gone,
VINO investigates and forces the
return Of workers hired without
statements Of availability. Employ
ers who don't know where theip
workers have gone are just "out OF
luck" and those complaints indi-
cate where the stabilization plan
isn't working, the VINO spokesman
said
The VINO official told a similar
story about workers who leave the
District without statements of avail
ability from their employers and
the USES.
I'VE can't keep them from going"
he admitted. "All we can do is keep
them from getting work for two
months"
