Bank Bandit Turns Lawyer
Gets Sentence Cut

robber turned legal expert, won
a l0-year reduction of his 35-
year sentence 10 Alcatraz before

mony which thus far has been
much more of a revelation Of

ton that he and six other Bun
dists should be deprived Of their
American citizenship.
Called as a witness by Asst
U. s. Atty. Hopping yesterday
under a rule which permits the
Interrogation of defendants and

The letters said:
"Inasmuch a. no authOrlta-

10 the basic causes of the riots,
we deplOre the presumption OF

1T Is unfortunate also that
the legitimate desire Of the

should be misrepresented as an
issue in the campaign.

Defense in Riot
Trial AssdiIs 4
State Witnesses

The case Of Leo Upton, IS, and
Charles Little Willie) Lyons,
charged with being the key fig
ures in the June Fl race riot, was
expected to- go to the jury today
after a closing statement by AS
sistant Prosecutor Elsarelli reit-
Grating the states contention
that Upton, aided by Lyons. TO-
mented the trouble at the Forest
Club
Yesterday. Joseph A. Brown.
defending Upton, in a closing ar
gument TO the jury in Recorders
Judge Makers court, declared
that only one thing could be con-
sidered by them in arriving at
their decision - whether Upton
did or did not conspire to riot.
HITS IDENTIFICATION
In an attempt TO show that the
Identification Of Upton was
faulty. he recalled to the jurors
that two deputy sheriffs, Lee j.
Morton and Charles Fisher. both
had failed 10 identify Upton,
either in the police showup be-
fore the trial or in the court
room afterward.
Brown assailed the character OF
the four states witnesses who
made the identification of Upton
as the man who seized a micro
phone in the Forest Club and,
representing him self as sgt.
Fuller. made a false announce
ment in which he said whites had
thrown a Negro woman and her
baby into the Detroit River from
the Belle Isle bridge. then urged
the 70 dancers assembled at the
club to rush 10 Belle Isle and
fight.
The defense attorney said that
the four Alphonso Webb, Curtis
Gibbs, Harold Lawson and Joe
lamar, changed their stories OF
what occurred at the club radi-
cally between the examination Of
Upton Aug II and the trial.
CITES LAwsON's RECORD
Also, Brown attempted TO i'm
peach the testimony Of Lawson in
particular by citing his police
record, which includes years
probation for assault and battery.
When Brown made the state
ment that the prosecution had
talked 10 two women checkroom
attendants at the Forest Club and
refused TO bring them into court
20 testify because they could show
that Upton spent the entire pc
riod OF turmoil in the checkroom
and never once approached the
microphone. Elsarelli's objection
was sustained.

Ebert was once offered a Job in

about $40. He refused the Job but
later helped Max Stephan. con-
Victed traitor, and Carl Leon

tionS plants through the German
Vocational League. he revealed.
The eX-gefreiter's admissions OF
un-AmeriCan activities were so
many that even his attorney could
not keep track Of them.
II object to Mr.. Hopping's
reference TO Max Stephan"
said the lawyer, making the
only gesture Of defense during
EbePts hours on the stand.
Nothing that shows the de-
PENDANT knew Max Stephan has
been introduced"
ADMITS PROPAGANDA
IL vas, too, at MoX Stephan's
place." Ebert declared Stoutly.
Ebert admitted that he had dis
tributed anti-JewiSh and anti
British propaganda. that he had
been In constant communication
with Nazi officials and had sent
TO Germany copies of FIR. Cough

of the Ford Motor Co.'S Rouge
