| Mcdowell Hits Clark, |
Staff for Inept Draft of
Charges Against Reds

Representative Mcdowell, Repuhl-
can, Of Pennsylvania, said yesterday
he thinks Attorney General Clark
and his staff were "inept" in draw
ing indictments against IL Com
munist Party leaders.
Mr.. Mcdowell issued through his
Office here q statement saying his
original criticism of the IL indict-
mentS stands exactly as I made 1t"
last week. His statement added: .
United States Attorney John r.
X. McGohey in New York has been
issuing both kilograms and news
paper statements daily. still insist
the indictment were drawn in such
an unusual fashion that they may
destroy the law.
Telephones Statement.
"The assumption by the United
States attorney that I accused him
and his assistants Of deliberately
drawing them in this fashion is silly
and ridiculous. My charge was that
the Attorney General and his staff
were inept. I still insist they were" !"
Mr.. McDowell's secretary said he
telephoned the statements to her
from his home in Pittsburgh.
A week ago Mr.. Mcdowell gave re-
porters a prepared statement saying
the indictments were drawn in
such an unusual legal fashion" that
constitutional lawyers believe the in
dicted Communist leaders ARE not
only practically certain Of not being
punished for their crimes" but that
court decisions resulting from the
indictments might destroy laws ur-
der which the persons were indicted.
Invited to Testify.
Mr.. McGohey invited Mr.. Nc
Dowell to air his complaint before
the Federal grand Jury in New
York.
MIR. McGohey told reporters in
New York Friday that he had had
a telegram from Mr.. Mcdowell IN
which Mr.. Mcdowell said he never
had accused the district attorney
and his staff Of deliberately pre-
pairing faulty indictments.
Mr.. McGohey refused to discuss
Mr., McDowells latest statement.

Taylor Obtained Story
OF Judge's e'sCriticism
Legally, Clay Rules
BY the Assoeiaisd Press

FRANKFURT, Germany, Mar. 81.
Gen. Lucius .. Clay has ruled
that there was no violation of law
or regulations in the way the United
States war crimes prosecution OBJ
tanned a Chicago Tribune article
before it was printed.
The American commander in
Germany wrote Hal Foust, Tribune
correspondent who wrote the article,
that Brig. Gen. Telford Taylor OBJ
tanned the article prematurely by
accident. Gen. Taylor is chief
prosecutor of the war crimes staff.
Gen. Clay said there was no
censorship or law violation involved.
Whether Gen. Taylor should have
used the article to issue a public
denial under the circumstances,
Gen. Clay said, was "a question Of
personal ethics"
Clay Takes Neutral Role.
Il do not propose to either criti-
cize or condone Gen. Taylor's ac-
tion," Gen. Clay wrote.
The ruling was disclosed yesterday
by Mr.. Foust, who had charged that
the Army tapped wires to obtain his
story. The disputed article quoted
Judge Charles Wennerstrum of
Iowa, war crimes trial Judge, as
criticizing the conduct of the trials
by the American prosecution. Gen.
Taylor's denial was issued before the
Tribune article had been published.
(on February Is, Gen. Taylor,
whose home is in Chevy Chase,
assumed full responsibility for
interception Of the Wennerstrum
interview which had been given
five days earlier. Gen. Taylor
said he heard of the interview
through attorneys on his staff
and instructed his public rela-
tons Office to get a copy Of it.

tanned by Miss Anne Turner OF
Philadelphia, an employe in the
public relations office. who went
to the Press Wireless office in
Frankfurt and was given q copy
by an employe there)
Gen. Clay held there was nc
ground for either civil or criminal
proceedings against Gen. Taylor and
the war crimes staff. Mr.. Foust said
he told Gen. Clay that he did not
agree with him, and asked leave to
appeal the complaint to the Secre-
tary Of the Army in washington.

Savings Plea Fails
TO Save Tax Fine
By the Associated Press

BALTIMORE, Sept. ga wife's
plea that she saved $4,000 without
her husband knowing about it failed
yesterday to save him from penal
ties for evading Federal taxes.
Judge w. Calvin Chestnut imposed
a $4,000 fine on William B. Strick-
Ter, operator of a northeast Balti-
more cocktail lounge, and sentenced
him to three months in Jail.
The government charged he failed
to pay $4,000 worth of taxes on his
income in 1943, 1914 and 1916. The
case was based on the government S
claim that Strickler's increase in net
worth, plus his spendings, exceeded
the amount of income he reported
in the three years.
Mrs. Strickler took the stand and
said the extra money came out of a
$50, 900 cache she had laid by with
out her husbands knowledge over
the years. About $4,000 of it, she
said, was saved from her own earn
