toward herself as the first shot was

fired again-that time hitting her
father.
In speaking to Mary from the
bench, Judge Witthaus said:
Upon this occasion I want to
warn you that while this Jury found
you not guilty there has been enough
evidence to find you guilty. There
has also been enough evidence to
find you not guilty. I hope you will
not feel too important.
Many people probably will disa-
gree with the jury's findings.
Il know some of the difficulties in
life. It has not been easy. I want
to be helpful to you If I can.
"The mere fact that the jury found
you not guilty does not mean that
1t approves Of all you did. I want
you to keep this in mind: from very
small things great tragedies can
arise. Initially, your truancy from
school laid the groundwork for all
this =
"Ycu have been given the benefits
OF doubts. I hope you will not find
this a vindication of everything you
did.
You are now discharged"
Mary had stood still and listened
attentively. When the judge had
finished, she said: Thank you, your
honor, I am sure I shall heed your
warning"
Then Mary turned to the jury and
said, with perfect composure
Thank you, ladies and gentlemen OF
the jury. I knew could not posi-
bly, be convicted of something ]

thus did something that it was IL
legal to do direct.
Mr.. Moffett acknowledged that the
1941 offer was contingent on the
United States advancing 5000, 900
OF the 0,000, 900 to Ibn Saud. Even
though this was done only indirectly,
he held that the companies "were
under obligation to furnish that oil
to the Navy when it wanted it at
the price quoted in 1941."
Public hearings by the committee
will be suspended until the Wheeler
study Is completed. After that, off,

will be heard. Mr.. Wheeler's find

ton must come after the cost of
the occupation is met.
It was considered doubtful that
the Russians would accept this COM
promise proposal, which probably
means there will be no reparations
of this type for two or three years,
or until Germany is paying her own
way.
On the matter of return of war
prisoners, the British proposal said:
I'm order that plans may be made
at the earliest possible date for
the absorption of repatriated per-
sons into the German economy.
the controlling power should fur
nish to the Allied Control Council
not later than June /, 1947, their
plans for repatriation to Germany
of German members of former Ger
man armed forces and auxiliary
services under their control.
These plans should include pro-
visions whereby such repatriations
would be completed by December 81,
1913, and should cover any German
members of the former armed force
and auxiliary services who may have
been transferred by any of the con-
trolling powers to any other Allied
power"
Reds Pressed for Totals.
At the outset of the conference
the western Allies pressed the Rus
slams, who hold the. largest number
of prisoners, for exact totals. The
Russians disclosed they held 890,532
Germans as prisoners in Soviet ter
ritory, the British reported 435 ,295
prisoners Outside Germany" and
the French GAL ,483, mostly in France.
The United States reported holding
15,103 mostly in Italy, and said an
other 1873 were being discharged
rapidly in Germany.
The Deputy Foreign Ministers on
Austria approved a final draft of
a progress report which showed
agreement on only "a out of So
articles in the treaty. Definition of
German assets, frontiers and United
Nations property compensation were
the major issues on which agreement
was lacking.
Jacques Rueff, president of the
Inter-Allied Reparations Agency
representing 18 of the smaller ma
tions, charged before the deputies on
Germany that the big powers had
achieved only "paltry results" in
reparations promises made in the
Potsdam pact.
He proposed four power "repara-
tions office" with sufficient authority
to expedite reparations deliveries,

Trial in Rockville Sc
For 70 ST. Mays
Slot Machine Cases

Twenty gambling cases, removed
to Montgomery County for trial by
the st. Marys County Cilcuit Court,
probably will be tried during the
November term, officials at Rockville
said today.
Associate Judge John B. Gray, jr.
Of the Seventh Judicial Circuit
ordered the cases transferred after
States Attorney C. Henry Camalier
declared it is impossible to obtain
fair and impartial" trials of such
cases in st. Marys. All involve
operation of slot machines.
Judge Charles c. Marbury also
commented on the difficulty in OBJ
tanning convictions in st. Marys
County.
The heyday in st. Marys County
is over" he said. He criticized those
who preach that extensive violation
of any law is repeal of that law
and said he had received reports
that a boycott has been declared
against one of the State witnesses
in the three cases already tried.
