interpreted as a waiting period

chased secrets about the U. s. S.

The jury had actually deliberated
about 1012 hours, not including time

/ After the verdict Defense Attor-
ney Irwin Goodman told the court
1t. Redin would like to say few
words. The Russian officer stepped
forward and in low voice, smiling
slightly, said:
Ladies and gentlemen of the
jury, your honor, I'd like to thank
you for this fair trial in these

Before the jury began its delib-
Grafton it was admonished by
Federal Judge Lloyd l.. Black
that you must not under any cir
cumstances bring a verdict of guilty
if not convinced OF his guilt beyond
a reasonable doubt, on the theory
that I will merely order his de-
portation.'
The judge told the jury that the
