knew Mrs. Groome The waitress
testified that the couple left together.
Morton described the alleged pick
pocket as sort of a Latin" and
said he was 'big enough to lean on
my shoulder" Under cross-exami-
nation he said he got hit on the
nose and jaw and was knocked to
the ground in the fight that fol-
lowed his discovery of the mans
hand in his pocket. The man fled,
according to Morton, and the latter
recovered his glasses from a nearby
hedge and walked away.
Asked why he did not report the
incident to police he said he didn't
think it was necessary" and that he
couldn't give them any informa-
ton" concerning his assailant.
He told of meeting Mrs. Groome
on a streetcar near Fourteenth and
Park road NV. last February. He
said they rode downtown together
and sat in the park at K street for
while. After q while he told her
he was cold and got up and left.
Detective on Stand.
Detective Sergt. Robert Murray
told the jury Morton had admitted
to him that he struck Mrs. Groome
in the park and described the mo-
tion of his arm in dealing the blow.
Morton categorically denied this.
The suspect said he had always
gotten along just fine with wom-
en-" He declared he never touched
her.
Morton slumped in his chair and
bounced his knee rapidly while the
witnesses were on the stand but,
aside from frequently wetting his
lips, was calm when testifying and
spoke in low, well-modulated voice.
He brought two sandwiches to the
District Morgue with him. When
the jury had retired he turned to
his attorney, Charles F. Halter, and
said he was hungry and asked if he
couldn't eat one. He did not stop
chewing to hear the clerk read the
Jury's verdict and did not appear
upset at the decision.
One witness. Thomas G. Hutchin-
son OF 1923 Ninth street NE, told
how he and Morton glared at one
another In a restaurant in the 1400
block OF Park road the night of the
murder. Mr.. Hutchinson said Nor
ton, whom he pointed out to the
jury, was kind of jittery." The
witness said he was mad because
they let Morton in the place in a
disheveled condition. He described
his shirt as saturated with blood.

campaign because it brought the
Red Army within striking distance
of the city of Smolensk, chief Ger
man operational headquarters for
the whole Northern Russia area.
Smolensk fell into German hands
in the opening days of the war in
1941 and has since served as the hub
of>Nazi offensive operations.
The Russian midnight commu-
nique said Soviet troops were near
ing the German defense line on the
Ugra River and had recaptured ITO
villages in battles which cost the
Nazis 5000 dead and the loss of
Sc tanks and 81 planes.
Two hundred miles south of
Yelnya on the Sevsk front Russian
columns were penetrating deeper
into the Ukraine from newly cap
tured Glukhov and Rylsk. From
Glukhov north for ITS miles the
Russian line paralleled the Kiev-
Konotop- -Bryansk Railroad and at
Glukhov Russian forces were only
7 miles away from the railway.
Serious Blow to Bryansk.
II the Red Army is able to slash
across the line at any point it
will be a serious blow to the vital
German base at Bryansk, now al
ready threatened by a frontal as
sault from the direction of Kara
chev.
The Sevsk advance resulted in the
capture of 200 villages, the Russian
war bulletin said, and more than
5000 Germans were killed and %
tanks were destroyed in the fight
ing. Eight hundred other Nazi
troops were reported taken prisoner.
Other units were already pushing
westward along the Azov Sea coast
toward Mariupol, while a second
spearhead was slashing northwest
toward Stalino
Earlier, the Russians said the Ger
mans were attempting a Dun
kerque" in the Taganrog sector but
declared that all counterattacks de-
signed at springing the encircled
Nazis from the trap had failed.

.0PA Aide Testifies
On D. {. Fuel Needs
In Steuart Co. Case

The addition of the new Sinclair
Oil Co.'S pipeline supplying the Dis
trict with oil could easily take care
of 10000 customers and their heat
ing needs this fall, L. Leroy Gritson,
business specialist in the fuel oil
division of OPA, testified this after
noon at hearing into 227 charges
of rationing irregularities brought
by the OPA against L. P. Steuart &
Bros, Inc, fuel Oil dealers.
Appearing as the first Govern
ment witness this afternoon, Mr..
Gritson's testimony tended to bear
out the Governments testimony
yesterday that conviction of the oil
firm would not put strain on ex-
listing oil firms in the District, even
if it went out of business.
Mr.. Gritson, who said he was vice
president and general manager of
the United Equipment and Supply
Co., before joining OPA, testified
that a survey he made, showed that
the Steuart Co. had handled about
3 per cent of the fuel oil business in
tIlc MetTOpOliIdn area.
He added that the survey made
among leading oil dealers in the
Metropolitan Area indicated that
other concerns handled about 80
per cent of the business.
Questioned by Carl w. Bereuffy,
enforcement attorney for the Dis
trict OPA, Mr.. Gritson pointed
out that 80 per cent OF the distrib-
uting equipment now on hand is
ready for use, and that much of
this equipment stood idle last year.
The addition of new facilities for
storage and distribution by the Sin
clair Oil Co., Mr.. Gritson said, could
easily take care of fuel oil needs of
the District, together with other
existing means of distribution.
During Mr.. Gritson's testimony
numerous verbal clashes took place
between Renah F. Camalier. at
torney for the oil firm, and the
Governments attorney, with Mr..
Camalier trying to break down the
testimony of the witness.
At the morning session three
young women clerks in the fuel oil
division of OPA were questioned
closely on their tally fuel oil ration
coupons of the Steuart Co.
The hearing is being held before
Clifford Snyder, an OPA hearing
commissioner from the New York
regional Office, in the Municipal
Court Building.
Called by Mr.. Camalier, the three
young women we're cross-examined
as to their qualifications as auditors
and accounters.
Mr.. Camalier made special point
of the different manner in which
each of the women made her tab
ulations and placed the coupons in
envelopes.
The three who testified were Miss
| Gertrude Sheva, Miss Bertha Gum
and Miss Helen Plyler. Earlier, Mr.
| Camalier questioned Miss Doroty
Ann Gisler, supervisor of the clerks
as to the procedure used. Miss Gis-
Ter was called by John Laskey, chief
attorney of the District OPA.

Louis L. Bowdler, florist, promi-
nent northeast business leader and
former president of the Society of
Natives, Is recovering In Casualty
Hospital from head injuries received
last night when he and his wife
were assaulted in their home, at 1913
Benning road NE, after discover
ing a colored prowler in their
kitchen.
Mr.. Bowdler, 81, has been presi-
dent of the Northeast Business
Mems Association and the Fedora
ton of Business Mems Associations,
and is prominent in civic work.
In fight to subdue the prowler,
Mr.. Bowdler was struck on the
head and cheek with an electric
iron. When Mr.. Bowdler's wife,
Ruth, As, attempted to come to his
assistance she also was struck.
After battling for possession of
the electric iron, Mr.. Bowdler final
ly wrested it from the assailant's
grasp and struck him on the head
several times.
Mr.. and Mrs. Bowdler and the in
truder were removed to Casualty
Hospital. Mrs. Bowdler was re-
leased after treatment.
The intruder, booked as John
Bernard Samuels, 80, of 91s Second

duct officials. They had obtained
pollution positive samples on the
same day at Boiling Field and at
several points along Nichols avenue
Sc. including No. Is fire engine
house.
DR.. Seckinger said the Health De-
partment made an immediate in
spection of the area and that after
a prompt conference with Water
Department officials emergency
chlorination was instituted without
further delay and that this was in
effect within three hours.
On July IL the Health Depart
ment continued It's survey. in CO.
operation with the Water Depart
ment and DR.. Seckinger reported
tests showed the extra chlorination
was effective in eliminating pollu-
ton in the water mains.
Reservoir Highly Polluted.
However, he added, the hnaccstia
first high reservoir was found to be
heavily polluted" and chlorination
there was increased and by July Is
this source of pollution, ne stated
further, was brought under control.
The Anacostia area receives water
service from two 30-inch gravity
mains, one of which crosses the
Anacostia River under the river and
the other is carried on the Penn
sylvania Avenue Bridge. The point
was made that the Anacostia area
Is one of the most remote from
the filtration and chlorination
plants and DR.. Seckinger said that
rarely does the water. carry more
than a trace of residual chlorine"
He said recent checks showed only
.05 parts per million to be the
maximum residual chlorine In the
area south of the Anacostia River.
Report Lack of Chlorine.
1t was said the standard of chlori-
nation is a minimum of four parts
per million.
The findings of the Health De-
partment were: Recent widespread
pollution in the Anacostia gravity
and first high services; that in this
area there were five military estab-
lishmentS receiving water from the
District; that there is heavy and
ever-increasing draft on the two
3o-inch lines which may at times
be subject to negative pressures due
to the suction of pumps at the Ana
costa pumping station and st. Eliza
beth's Hospital; that the Anacostia
reservoir is "a constant source of
pollution" and that there is a lack of
sufficient chlorine residual to coun-
teract local pollution.
