Judge Refuses 10 Quash
Berrum Murder Charoe

Justice James M. Proctor of Dis
trict Court today overruled a mo-
tion to quaSh an indictment under
which Marine Pfc. Earl Mcfarland
is charged with the first-degree
murder and criminal assault of 49,
year-old Dorothy M. Berrum on the
East Potomac golf course on Octo-
Der 5.
The motion, which was argued
last Friday by McFarland's attor-
ney, P. Bateman Ennis. claimed the
indictment as drawn would be
prejudicial to Mcfarland when he
comes to trial for the Staying of the
War Department clerk because it
listed several other names under
which he allegedlv had been known.
Assistant United States Attorney
John w. Fihelly, who opposed the
motion in behalf of the Govern
ment, maintained the several names
under which Mcfarland was listed
in the indictment were necessary
for Identification. The other names
given were Jack Dills, E. j. Dill and
E. j. Dills.
When the motion to quash the
indictment was argued Mcfarland
admitted his real name is Earl j.
Dills. Mr.. Fiheliy produced a copy
Of birth certificate indicating the
defendant is Eugene Dill and is "a
years old instead of 81.
A formal order on the denial of
the motion to quash the indictment
was to be signed later by Justice
Proctor.

Mrs. Joseph P. Kennedy, 42O
Fourth street NE, recently received
an invitation to christen a boat at
Newport News, Va.
She declined. Not because she
wouldn't like to christen a boat, but
because she knew the shipbuilding
company really meant to invite the
other Mrs. Kennedy-the wife of the
former Ambassador to Great Britain.
Mrs. Kennedy, the local Mrs.
Kennedy, said last night that sort
OF thing has been happening pretty
regularly ever since the former Am
bassador came back to this country
several years ago. Sometimes she
and her Mr.. Kennedy think it's
pretty funny. At other times, they
get mighty sick and tired of it.
The confusion is not relieved any
by the fact that the P in the local
Mr.. Kennedys name stands for
Patrick, which is the former Am
bassador's middle name.
MOI long ago, our Mr.. Kennedy
got a letter from Harvard Univer-
sity thanking him for the speech
he made. He didn't pay any atten-
ton to it because at the time the
letter said he had made the speech
he had been busy at his job in the
Navy Yard here where he is "lay-
out mamie works from blueprints
and lays out the work for the crews.
Every once in a while, some Eng
llShman, fresh off the boat, calls
the local Kennedys and wants to
renew old acquaintance. Often it

Voters S Motive Sets Tone.
Of Nation, Dean Suter SAYS

The voter is more important than
the candidate for Office because his
motive, multiplied many hundred
thousand times, sets the tone of
the Nation" the Very Rev. John
Wallace Suter, new dean of Wash
ington Cathedral, yesterday told
the congregation at his first Sun
day morning service since his in
stallation as dean on Wednesday.
Dean Suter declared what gets
registered in the privacy of the
voting booth is the Nations con-
science, for conscience has to do
with motive and a mans motives
are the man, and men make ma
tions." The dean asserted that
when a man enters the voting
booth he is surrounded by the great
company of those who, whether
obscure or prominent, kept the
faith of that dream which is Amer
lea. In this company there also
will be men and women who gave
their lives in the present war"

Of Firm S Books
Appellate Division
Affirms Order to
Produce Records

The Court Of Appeals today up
held the right of the Once Of Price
Administration to require a firm to
turn over sales records to the OPA
for inspection.
The ruling was made in Affirming
"a District Court decision Of last
March in which Arthur Cudmore,
secretary Of Auth-Loffler, Inc,
wholesale meat firm, had been or
dered to either permit inspection
or records or produce invoices.
The records which were requested
in a subpoena by the OPA concerned
purchases and sales Of pork and pork
products by the firm between July i
and October 80 of last year.
The appellate court held that the
information sought by the OPA "was
clearly pertinent" in the enforce
ment of the emergency Price Con-
troll Act. 1t also held that mo priv
ilege against standardization was
violated or threatened in this case,
as respects either appellant indi-
vidually or the corporation of which
he Is secretary"
Mr.. Cudmore had contended that
the order Of the price administra-
tor violated his constitutional rights,
because of penalties which might
have been imposed upon him or
upon the corporation, of which he
is secretary and owner of one-half
OF its capital stock, as a result of
disclosures which might have been
made in these invoices of possible
innocent and unintentional viola
tlons OF price ceilings" the appel
late court said.
