Foreign Witnesses Likely.
1t is considered likely that some

before the grand jury came a long
way to testify.
But the identity and nature oi
prosecution evidence remains entire
ly matter of speculation. The in

acy, and the Government will be re-
quired to prove that the defendants

armed forces to mutiny and over

the type of state in control of Ger
many. 1t Is not necessary, under

Washington Marine
Awarded Bronze Star

Pfc. Thomas O. Jones, r9-year-old
marine veteran who visited his
family here last month, yesterday
was awarded the Bronze Star
Medal for conspicuous gallantry un-
der enemy fire in the South Pacific
Son of Mr.. and Mrs. James A.
Jones, 467 I street S.W., Pfc. Jones
was decorated at the Marine Base
in San Diego, Calf. He already
wears the Purple Heart.
According to his citation, Pfc
Jones had his automatic weapon
shot from his hand during action
on Bougainville. Without hesita-
ton, he seized another weapon from
wounded comrade and charged
alone into the bunker position, de-
stroying eight of the enemy and
capturing the emplacement.
The youthful marine called his
mother. from California to tell her
about the medal but before he could
describe how he had earned it. his
three minutes were up, his mother
said.
He had neglected to mention the
action during his months visit here,
she said.
He was sent home in March after
serving overseas for 18 months. He
had enlisted in the Marine Corps
at II.

he could take his case directly to
Pope Plus XII.
Gases like this" he asserted,
usually are considered private be-
tween the bishop and the priest, but
where the bishop made public the
suspension I felt it was proper for
me to make public my appeal"
The announcement of the sus-
pension of priestly privileges was
taken to Father Orlemanski by Rev.
George J. Shea, chancellor of the
diocese, who explained that Bishop
OLeary had imposed canonical
penalties which would prohibit
Father Orlemanski from function
ing. although he still would remain
a priest.
Shortly afterward, Father Orle-
manski sent the following letter to
Bishop OLeary:
"You are hereby notified that I
am no longer under your jurisdic-
ton but the jurisdiction of the apos-
tolic delegate in Washington, D. c.
Sincerely yours in Christ, Father
Stanislaus .Orlemanski."
The priest declined any amplfi-
cation OF the message and refused
further comment. e
At the time his eventful visit
to Moscow first was made public a
chancellery spokesman said that
Father Orlemanski did not have his
bishops permission to make the trip.
Met by Parishioners.
The stocky, blue-eyed priest was
met at the railroad station this
morning by about 100 of his parish
toner's and group of little children
who shouted welcoming, Hello,
Father"
He was obviously tired but re-
ceived newspapermen in the rectory
and told them he had gone to
Moscow to tell Premier Stain that
he wanted the establishment "of an
American system in Poland"
He said he had undertaken the
voyage ito do something good" and
added that he belonged to no party
no clique. II am working, for the
Polish people" he declared.
Il went as a private citizen" the
priest continued. Nevertheless, I
think my Government is fully en-
titled to have report from me on
what I was doing in Moscow, and
I expect to tell my Government
whom I saw, what was said and
what I did"

which may not involve judicial
questions. -
The meeting is expected to pro-
woke sharp disagreement over the
trial, with many members taking
the view that the association should
not even discuss it while it, is in
progress. The Executive Committee
refused to call the special meeting
for which 26 members petitioned,
but the committee was overridden
at a membership meeting and the
special session called.
Fund for Counsel Proposed.
The second plan to be proposed
at the special meeting will be to
raise voluntary fund among men,
bers of the bar to compensate de-
fense attorneys appointed by the
court. These counsel otherwise will
receive no fees for a trial expected
to last months.
Justice Jennings Bailey took nc
action yesterday in regard to the
distribution outside his courtroom
Thursday of statement by the
National Lawyers Guild commend
ing his decision in the Laughlin con-
tempt case and assailing the tactics
of defense lawyers in the sedition
trial.
Declaring the statement was pre-
pared in advance, before the courts
decision was announced and handed
the press the moment Justice Bailey
made his ruling, a score of defense
counsel demanded in Justice Eicher's
court that Martin Pepper, secretary
OF the organization, be cited for con-
tempt of court.
Justice Eicher sent a copv of the
statement Mr.. Pepper drafted and
gave out and a transcription of
what the lawyers said about it to
Justice Bailey. Failure of Justice
Bailey to take any action Friday
or yesterday indicated to observers
that the matter would be dropped
though there was no official COM
ment.
The Pepper statment hailed JUS
tice Bailey's ruling in the case of
James j. Laughlin, a defense at
torney in the sedition case, who
was found guilty of contempt for
'activities at the sedition trial and
fined $3.50. Mr.. Laughlin has ap-
pealed. He represents two of the
defendants on trial-Robert Noble
and James Edward Smythe.
