Duranf Defense Gets
Week 10 Plan Case
Despite Objection

A weeks adjournment to prepare
it's case was granted the defense to-
day at the court-martial of Col.
Jack w. Durant on charges of con-
spiracy in the looting of the Hesse
royal jewelry.
Maj. Joseph Bryan told the court
defense counsel needed at least two
weeks to prepare its case before
introducing witnesses.
This request drew a spirited OBJ
lection from Maj. Joseph Robinson,
who stated for the prosecution that
this was only another attempt to
delay the day of justice" He de-
clared the defense had sought to
delay the trial at least 20 times
since it opened in Germany last
December 10. The trial has been in
progress at the Pentagon since Feb
ruary 10 and the fedense case is
still to be presented.
May Last Two Weeks.
Maj. Bryan declared the prosecu-
tion had six months to prepare to
go to trial while defense counsel had
only a few days. The trial will be
Presumed next Friday morning and
there were indications it would last
at least two or three weeks longer
before the proceedings are moved
back to Germany for the final
chapter.
The court adjourned late yester-
day after curt reminder to the
opposing attorneys to "get together
on the matter of defense witnesses
subject of repeated clashes during
yesterdays session.
Maj. Bryan told the court 1t
might turn out the defense would
make no attempt to present wit
nesses, some 20 of whom were
claimed by the prosecution to be
available.
Insists on Ruling.
The defense had maintained
steadfastly that it was unable to
determine which of the witnesses
should be called, if any, until the
court had ruled on it's motions to
declare Col. Durant mot guilty"
now of all pending charges against
him, including conspiracy, SNUG
Cling, and aiding and abetting in the
theft of the fortune in jewels and
heirloomS.
Denying Col. Durant acquittal at
this time on all pending charges, the
court left the defense no recourse
but to continue the trial.
The military court held that the
evidence presented by the prosecu-
ton fairly tends to establish the
charges" against the defendant
These include charges that he took a
portion Of the jewels from the castle
of the Hesse family and smuggled
them into the United States.
Col Irwin SCHNEIDER, law member
of the court, declared the court was
unanimous in ruling to deny the
defense motions to acquit.

BY the Associated Press

BATAVIA, Java, Mar. 21.-Capt
Rudy Gray formally requested
American Consul General Walter
Foote today to repatriate the Off.
GERS and crew of the Liberty ship
Martin Behrman to the Unitee
States as distressed seamen.
He indicated he would refuse 6
Dutch offer to permit the American
crew to sail the empty ship away
next week-as soon as her confis.
Gated 100000 cargo is unloaded.
| Capt. Gray and James A. Ryan
representative of the charterers, the
Isbrandtsen Co., reiterated theil
claim that the Behrman was seizeC
by Dutch authorities March 7 ano
has been their responsibility since
They contend the seizure was &C
complished when civil police fore
IDLY prevented creWmen from carry
ing out Capt. Gray's order to lift
the gang plank. The captain i'm
mediately walked off the ship and
has not returned.
Dutch Deny Ship Was Seized.
The Dutch maintain, on the other
hand, that the ship was not seized
but merely detained pending un-
loading of a cargo which the Dutch
say the Behrman had no right to
carry.
Earlier, Capt. Gray announced
that his 38-man crew had cabled the
National Maritime Union asking
that all Dutch shipping to the
United States be blacklisted in re-
taliation for the treatment accord
ed the Behrman and her crew in
the Netherlands Indies.
He said the crew voted unanimous
ly to send the cable at a union
chapter meeting aboard ship.
The Netherlands Indies govern
ment said last night that the Behr-
man would be permitted to sail
next week, as soon as the unloading
of her confiscated cargo of rubber
cinchona (quinine bark and sisal
is completed.
Cargo Declared Looted"
The cargo was loaded at Cheri-
bon, a port controlled by the In
donesian republic, and the Dutch
maintained the cargo comprised
looted" property from Dutch
estates in the hands of the repub-
lie. For that reason the Dutch
ordered the vessel to Batavia and
confiscated the cargo.
A highly placed Dutch source said
the Dutch would ship equivalent
amounts of rubber, cinchona and
sisal to the United States so ii
would not lose the critical materials
as a result of the seizure. He said
no legal charges would be pressed
against Capt. Gray or his crew.
Mr.. Ryan said, however, that the
Isbrandtsen Co. will press claim
for $1,000000 against the govern
ment.

|Hebert Offers Second
|CIinic Bill in War
On 6. @. P. 'ThieveN'

Two identical bills calling for a
District alcoholic clinic were before
the House today, the fruition OF
open warfare on Republican leader
ship by Representative Hebert
Democrat, of Louisiana.
Charging the COP leadership with
political party carnage and legisla-
tive thievery," Mr.. Hebert precipi-
tated the double -barreled situation
yesterday by introducing a bill he
charged had been virtually stolen
from him by Representative Miller,
Republican, of Nebraska.
In formal statement, Mr.. Hebert
said the Nebraskan, as chairman of
a House District subcommittee, sim
ply amended a bill originally intro
duced as the "Hebert bill' in the
last Congress. The Democrats held
the whip hand then, and Mr.. Hebert,
after investigating the District
penal system, had advocated an
alcoholic clinic.
DR.. Miller dropped his version of
the bill in the House hopper last
week-after it had been amended
by the House District Welfare sub
committee, of which Mr.. Hebert is
a member.
Mr.. Hebert charged DR.. Miller
was acting under instructions from
the Republican leadership that no
Democrat be allowed to sponsor pro-
gressive legislation to a successful
conclusion.
DR.. Miller was not long in return
ing the salvo. He said it was a
matter of the shoe being on the
other foot, that the Republicans
were doing nothing the Democrats
had not done for IA years.
IF Mr.. Hebert thinks he can make
successful fight on this issue, he's
due for a spanking" DR.. Miller said.
His boys are not in power any
more"
Announcing the time had come to
expose the party carnage and legis-
lative thievery which has been
adopted by the Republican leader
ship" Mr.. Hebert said he would
carry the fight to the American
people and indicated he soon would
make a speech on the floor.
II am ready and willing to accept
the challenge and demand those
