age is the many home study cour-

phases of military service. These,
with the many other plans now
under development, make the
Marine Corps Reserve something
we'll worth considering by every
yocng man whether he is a veter-

War Sci Back Public Works
IS Years, Fleming Says

Public works in general suffered a
|five-year setback while the Federal
Works Agency was helping win the
war with some 1000 projects geared
to the military effort, Administrator
Philip B. Fleming said in an address
at the Army Industrial College today.
The total construction cost was
around $456, 900 900, with FWA pay
ing $3.50 900 900 and the benefiting
communities the rest, Gen. Fleming
said.
Conducted primarily in new COM
munities which sprang up to manu-
facture war material, the construc-
ton consisted OF 1,149 schools, 874
hospitals, 459> water projects, 446
sewer systems, 726 recreation CEN
ters and number of police and
fire stations.
The sso.ooo,00o yearly average
spent for public works during the
war actually was drop in the
bucket compared to the two to three
billions spent annually In prewar
years, Gen. Fleming said.
The administrator said the needed
public works program was advanc-
ing slowly because of the high cost

The May-Garsson war hand
conspiracy trial, In recess until
tomorrow morning In District
Court, will have Joseph F. Free
man, Carson washington agent,
as d key defense witness instead
OF q defendant.
Former Representative Andrew J.
May Of Kentucky and Henry and
Murray Carson, heads of 478,-
oOO, 900 wartime munitions combine,
viii start presentation OF their case
tomorrow. May will be the first
witness. Defense attorneys said
the opening statement by Charles
y. Margiotti, chief counsel for the
Carson brothers, might delay Mays
appearance until Monday.
In the absence OF the jury late
yesterday Justice Henry A. Schwein-
naut directed that Freeman be freed
because the Government failed to
connect him with alleged bribes OF
more than $4,000 by the Garssons
to May. Freeman still faces trial
on perjury charge.
Justice Schweinhaut. however, de-
MED defense motions for directed
judgments OF acquittal for the IL
year-old former chairman Of the
House Military Affairs Committee
and the Carson brothers.
II am rather strongly inclined to
believe that the Government has
made a prima facie case against
them," he declared.
Faces Perjury Trial.
Freeman and Henry Carson were
indicted last March on charge OF
having made false statements before
the grand jury that also indicted
them, Murray Carson and May last
January on charges Of conspiracy to
defraud the United States.
Because of a meeting of District
Court judges today, Justice Schwein-
haut recessed the trial until 10 an
tomorrow.
Mays counsel made their opening
statement at the start of the trial
April ~. The defense estimated
their case will require two or three
weeks.
The courts ruling for Freeman
came as an obvious blow to Govern
ment counsel. Special Prosecutor
william A. Paisley put up strenu-
ous argument that war fraud con-

spiracy. involving Freeman as well
Is May and the Garssons, had been
proved to the hiit" by the 10 Gov
ernment witnesses and the more
than Ito evidence exhibits.
Campaign Checks Defended
Austin n Canneld, Freeman's
counsel, declared none Of the testi-
mony and evidence showed Freeman
paid anything to May or obtained
any services essentially different
from those properly performed by
members Of Congress.
If It's wrong for 4 man to run to
Z Senator or Representative when
he feels he ID getting pushed around
and wants q fair break, then every
Senator and Representative is head
ed for JAIL" Mr.. Canfieid told the
court.
Referring to two Il 1,o00 checks,
claimed by the Government TO have
been obtained by Freeman for May
Mr.. Canfield asserted that all testi-
inony showed these were legitimate
campaign contributions.
Even II the 81 900 checks were
improperly obtained for services
rendered, Mr.. Canfield added. they
were not shown to involve the Cars
son brothers. At the worse, they
could be judged only as conspiracy
between May and Freeman alone
and therefore "a conspiracy within
a conspiracy he said.
Cites Freeman's Part In Deals.
Mr.. Paisley reminded the court
how witness after witness" told OF
meeting Freeman with the Garssons
and May and Of him taking an
important part in many financial
transactions among the other de-
PENDANTS. Freeman, he said, was q
director Of the Cumberland Lumber
Co. in Kentucky and "unquestion-
ably knew" Of the alleged payments
made by the Garssons to May
through that concern.
After hearing the arguments, JUS
tice Schweinhaut said he had spent
the better part" Of the previous
night studying the trial record as II
affected Freeman.
He said it was his considered
view" that, II Freeman continued
on trial. the jury necessarily would
have to engage In considerable
speculation" about Freeman's asso-
citation with the Garssons. Justice
