They will request change of venue.
IT their request for a change Of
venue is rejected they will present
to the court petitions signed by
residents Of the area stating that
there will be prejudice if the case is
tried there.
Court Has No Choice
Under the Arizona law the court
will have no other course than to
change the trial location.
Prosecutor Dodd L. Greer has al
ready indicated a preference for
Graham or Navajo counties. How
ever Struckmeyer said this morning
that if Navajo is suggested he will
oppose it sas strongly as I possibly
can"
The opposition will come as re-
suit of the attorney generals prose-
cution of Victor E. Westover-a case
which bobbed up in the supreme
court today-on charges of misap-
propriating $4,000 in Navajo county
funds, while acting as the county's
treasurer.
However, Struckmeyer said he
would not oppose Graham county,
and pointed out that the defense
has little to say in change of venue
proceedings. Graham county thus
appeared the logical compromise
and probable site of the trials.
Charged with Sullivan are Harry
T. Hendricks and Jack P. Christy.

From Pittsburgh comes information that the
worlds largest commercial coal producer is going to
erect plant to make gasoline out Of coal and it the
process proves feasible will construct $120OOO,OOO

In view of repeated assertions that gasoline
supply underground is not inexhaustible it is inter-
esting to note that the promoters of the new project
say that coal synthess will provide the nation with
adequate reserve of gasoline for three thousand
years. This ought to be long enough.
