liams. testified today as the first de-
Tense witness In the District Court

Gen. Meyers Is Denied
Dismissal Of Charges;
May Ask Trial Delay

Justice Alexander Holtzoff today
refused to dismiss indictments
against Maj. Gen. Bennett E. Meyers
In District Court when counsel for
the retired Air Forces procurement
officer contended the statute under
which he was indicted does not ap-
ply to perjury before a congress
sional committee.
Meyers, who was indicted Deem
Der 16 on charges OF perjury and
subordination of perjury in copnec-
ton with hearings before a Senate
War Investigating Subcommittee
last October and November, is
scheduled to 60 on trial February 16
His counsel indicated, however, they
might ask for o continuance at that
time.
Russell Hardy and Smith w.
Brookhart, Washington attorneys
representing Meyers, asked Justice
Holtzof today to dismiss the in
dictments on two basic grounds:
% that the District criminal code
statute on perjury and subornation
Oh IClJ4y OoCc uOt CofCl hLACSCO1J
false statements made before any
group other than court Of law,
and ca that the indictments are
vague and unduly detrimental to
the defense by failing to give clear
cut and detailed statement of speci-
fic charges Of perjury before the
Senate subcommittee.
After denying the motion, Justice
Holt7of granted, in part. further
defense motions so that counsel for
Meyers could inspect some of the
records of the Senate committee
hearings. He denied a motion that
defense counsel receive the full rec
ord of testimony at closed sessions
Of the Senate subcommittee.
Justice Holtzoff denied another
motion that defense counsel be al
lowed to inspect II large boxes Of
records of the Aviation Electric
Corp, a Dayton. Ohio, wartime
company in which the Government
claims Meyers had a financial IN
terest.

Justice Refuses 10 LET
|EisIer Have New Trial
|0r SET Verdict Aside

Justice James w. Morris today re-
fused to grant new trial or set
aside the District Court verdict find-
ing Gerhart Eisler guilty of making
false statements in applying for an
exit permit.
The District Court justice referred
the case for pre-Sentence investiga-
ton of the defendant. Eisler, 81,
described as the leading Communist
In this country, already has been
sentenced to year in jail and 81 900
fine for contempt of Congress. This
case is now on appeal.
In a nine-page memorandum,
Justice Morris ruled that while he
did not consider some of the Gov
ernment's questions during the trial
proper" nothing occurred in the
presence Of the jury SUFFICIENT to di-
vert the minds of jury members
from the ESSENTIAL issues. The de-
Tense commended the prosecutors
made prejudicial and infiammatory
statements during the trial.
Jury Held Unprejudiced.
As to the defense contention that
Eisler did not get a fair trial be-
cause Government employees were on
the jury, Justice Morris said great
care was exercised in choosing a
jury and it definitely appeared that
none of the the jurors was afraid
Of losing his job or would be preju-
diced against Eisler because OF
Communist Party Affiliations.
The defense had also contended
that Eisler could not be constitu-
tionally convicted of failure to dis
close political Affiliations. Justice
Morris ruled that in this case there
was no question of interfering with
Eisler's right to be affiliated with the
Communist Party. The question of
party affiliation, he said, was simply
q matter of identifying the de-
PENDANT to enable more complete
investigation by the State Depart
ment of his application to leave the
country.
Inadequate Otherwise.
Indeed" Justice Morris added,
"if the evidence in the case Is to be
believed, much of his activities,
both In the United States and
abroad, was so directly related to
his membership in and afflliation
with the Communist Party that 1t
would be q wholly inadequate
of him without men
ton of such party"
The n1onth-long Eisler trial on
the exit permit case ended last
August.

Retirement Pay Probe
Launched al Capitol;
Service Experts Called

An investigation Of the service
retirement system that lets some
officers draw disability checks
and big salaries at the same time
gets under way in Congress to-
day.
| A House Armed Services subcom-
mittee called on Army and Navy
personnel experts for an explana-
ton.
The subcommittee already has
dug up figures indicating one-third
of the higher rank officers who were
retired for disability are well enough
to work at paying jobs. One former
admiral has reported he gets tax
free disability check for $3.50 a
month and makes $125,0O0 a year as
an engineer.
I'VE are holding this hearing, "
Chairman Elston told reporters, ito
determine whether or not there
have been any abuses Of the retire
ment pay law. II it develops that
there have been abuses, we will at
tempt to draft legislation to cor
rect them"
Meyers Case Started Inquiry.
The subcommittee has been dig
ging into the retirement system
since last summer. 1t turned on
the heat after the Senate War In
vestigating Committee pried into the
case of Maj Gen. Bennett E. Meyers,
now awaiting trial on charges of
perjury.
The Senate committee heard tes-
timony that Meyers. an Air Force
purchasing officer during the war,
prof1ted from contracts Of Dayton
Ohio war plant he owned on the
side. The Senators also learned
that Meyers had been retired for
disability after a nervous break
down and was drawing $3.50 a
month. The Army promptly stopped
the disability pay in his case.
The Elston subcommittee sent
missionaries to 2,741 Army and
Navy officers retired for disability
other than battle wounds. The
missionaries went to men with
the rank of Army colonel or Navy
captain or higher.
1872 Drawing Pay ut Jobs.
As a prelude to the opening of
its public hearings today, the sub
committee reported that of the
1885 officers who have sent in re-
plies:
1872 are "gainfully employed"
81 make $4,000 or more year.
1923 have had no medical exam
nation or treatment since retiring.
10 have been approved for life in
surance.
Mr.. Elston said his group also will
look into the different retirement
rules for officers and enlisted men.
Oficers retired for disability get
rs per cent of the base pay they
were drawing at retirement time
and get that amount for life. The
disability pay is exempt from in
come taxes. ..
Enlisted men draw pensions that
vary according to the percentage of
disability, which is subject to annual
review.
