And Lawyer Indicted
lin Parole Of Four
BY The A,,oeiet.d Pres.

CHICAGO, Jan. 13-Tony Ac-
cardo, once a top lieutenant in the
old Capone gang, and Attorney Eu-
gene Bernstein have been indicted
by a Federal grand jury in connec-
tion with the paroles of four former
Capone gangsters from Federal
prisons after they served one-third
of their 10-year sentences.
Both indictments, charging Ac-
cardo and Bernstein with making
and conspiring to make false state
ments to a Government agency,
were returned yesterday before Fed
eral Judge John P. Barnes, who set
bond of $4,000 each. Maximum
punishment, on. conviction, is AZ
years in prison and fines of 5000,
United States Attorney Otto Ker-
ner, jr., said.
Accardo is charged with imper-
sonating Joseph Bulger, Chicago
attorney, on nine visits with Bern
stein to Leavenworth Penitentiay
to see Louis Little New York; Cam
pagna and Paul (the Waiter) Ricca.
Money Believed Paid.
Campagna, Ricca and Charles
Cherry Nose) Gioe and Philip
D'Andrae were paroled last August
after serving three years and four
months of 10-year sentences for
participating in a $1,000,000 extor-
ton plot against the motion picture
industry.
The four former gangsters were
among the dozen witnesses who ap-
peared yesterday before the grand
jury investigating the paroles.
+" Meanwhile in Washington Repre-
sentative Busbey, Republican, of IL
linois, testifying before a House
Ways and Means Committee group
which also is investigating the pa
roles, quoted Joseph Sanford, war
den of the Federal Penitentiary at
Atlanta, as having expressed belief
that money had been paid" for the
transfer of the four Chicago men
from Atlanta prison to Leavenworth
Penitentiary.
Mr.. Busbey quoted Mr. Sanford as
having told him that while he had
no proof of any money paid for the
transfers, he was convinced in his
own mind money had been paid.
Denies knowledge of Payment.
In Atlanta, Mr.. Sanford said he
was amazed" at Mr.. Busbey's state
ment and said, "I deny that I have
any knowledge that money was i'm
properly paid to secure the transfer
of these prisoners.
Mr.. Busbey and Representative
Born, Democrat, of South Carolina
had conferred with Mr.. Sanford in
Atlanta last November but they did
not disclose any details of their
talks at that time.
Mr.. Sanford, in statement yes
terday, said II have no reason to
believe that any fees to attorneys,
if paid, were improper. Any infer
ence that stated that improper use
of such fees was being made to Sc
cure the transfer of the pensioners
in question is absolutely incorrect,
misleading and not in accordance
with the facts"

agreed yesterday to review the valid
ity of Danville's new license ordi-
nance in a case which indirectly will
affect somewhat similar ordinances
in other localities.
Appeals were granted in 10 cases;
refused in !.
Two principal issues are placed
before the court in the Danville case:
/. Is the reasonableness or op-
pressiveness of a local tax ordinance
subject to judicial review?
2. Do local license ordinances
based on gross receipts violate the
Commonwealth law segregating in
come as tax source of the State?
An appeal in the Danville case was
taken by group Of Danville doctors,
lawyers, contractors, wholesale build
ing suppliers and hotel operators
from a judgment of the Corporation
Court of Danville which upheld the
validity Of the local ordinance. The
ordinance became effective last jan
uary /.
The ordinance classifies various
occupations and undertakes to i'm
pose license taxes on those who
practice them.
Among appeals granted yesterday
were:

Watermelon Rind came into its
own as high style in the little extras
which make meal something special
when the preserve recipe was intro
duced and perfected. 1t seems
strange there was time when
watermelon rind was thought as
worthy of salvage as old shoe leather.
Now the guest who bites into crisp
piece of watermelon preserve looks
Mt his hostess with new respect and
admiration. "Just the right touch
to this fine meal" he is apt to pro-
nounce.
That crisp texture is something to
be priced. To obtain it, soak the
rind two or three hours in lime water
to cover. The lime water is prepared
by adding one tablespoon of slaked
lime calcium oxide) to each quart
of cold water. (If you prefer tex
ture more like that of preserved
pears, soak the rind overnight in
salt water-two tablespoons salt to
each quart of water.)

The next minute she gave a sud
den startled exclamation. Walking
straight toward her along a beam
was a tall, young fellow. The wind
rumpled his brown hair and SEEM
ed trying to blow him over, but he
paid no attention to it. His merry
whistle brought quick touch of
rose to Mary's smooth cheeks. He
was whistling I'm UP in the air
about you, Mary!" Did he know her
name was Mary? No, he couldn't,
she told herself. She had never seen
him before. But he certainly was up
in the air.
Almost involuntarily she glanced
downward. Far below people looked
like mechanical toys moving about.
Six months before the city had SEEM
ed to Mary sort of rose-colored
dream town. Now it had begun to
seem more like teeming ant hill
where everybody scurried about in a
hopeless maze, thinking only of
themselves. Other girls, palmer than
Mary, boosted of the number Of 'boy
friends" they had picked up" but
she disliked to copy their bold ways
and flippant speeches. She noticed
that the young fellow striding sure
footedly along the beam looked
clean and respectable like most of
the young men she had known in
her own little home town back in
Pennsylvania. Alone in the office
for few moments, she was moved
by a sudden, homesick impulse.
Good afternoon! It's a lovely
day, isn't it?" she called through
the partly-opened window.
A quick, boyish smile flashed
across the young mans face.
"It's great" he agreed, "juSt
great"
Alarmed by her own impulsive-
ness, Mary began to tap her type
writer keys at a great rate. She be-
rated herself for being so bold. Her
conscience came to her aid.
