|2CriminaI Convictions
Upheld; Prosecution
And Police Criticized

The United States Court Of Ap-
peals today affirmed District Court
convictions in. two criminal cases.
but criticized the prosecution In one
and the police In the other.
The first case involved the con-
viction Of Henry p. Taylor, 80, col
ored, $500 block Of Benning road
NE, who was sentenced last No
vember by Justice Richmond B.
Keech OF District Court to serve
from three to IL months on q
charge Of impersonatfAg 4 police
ofncer. He has been free On bond
pending his appeal.
The Court Of Appeals opinion
held that counsel for the Govern
ment was exceedingly blameworthy
In that he failed to offer direct
proof that Taylor was not . police
man. The opinion, however, held
that other testimony was sufficiently
strong to show that Taylor was not
an officer and to uphold the con-
viction.
Theft Conviction Upheld.
The opinion was written by Justice
Bennett Champ Clark. Chief
Justice Harold M. Stephens and
Justice Wilbur K. Miller heard the
case with Justice Clark.
In the second case, the appellate
court, in a split decision, affirmed
the conviction of Andrew Upshaw,
"a, colored, 1900 block OF Eighth
street NV, for the theft Of a
watch which belonged to Miss
Harriet H. Pearce, 1900 block OF
Seventh street NV.
Upshaw, who was sentenced in the
lower court by Justice Henry A.
Schweinhaut to serve from Is
months to four years, contended on
appeal that q confession was mad
missable because he had been held
from early Friday, last June 6, to
the following Monday before being
arraigned.
Delay In Arraignment Scored.
The Court of Appeals, In a ma
jority opinion written by Justice
Miller, held that the confession had
not been forced by any long ques-
tioning and that 1t was admissible,
but criticized the police for holding
Upshaw three days before arraign-
ing him.
A dissent was written by Justice
Henry w. Edgerton. Justice Clark
concurred in the majority opinion.
