would authorize government

long-term commitments for the

stockpiling or for resale to industry
The buying agreements would
contain "escalator" clauses, under

Federal Judge Defends
'Handpiekad', Juries;;
Will Continue System
ey the Associofed Press

UNIONTOWN, Pa, Jan. o.
Federal Judge John c. Knox of New
York, said tonight the same care
should be given to selection of jul
rors as that employed in. choosing
men and women for elective offices.
Asserting that an intelligent and
upright" juror is equally as import
ant as the judge who presides over
a case, the Senior Judge of the
Federal Court for New York's South
err1 District asked:
"" Why should not the juror
as we'll as the judge be chosen
and selected by competent and dis
eliminating authority?"
Judge Knox's speech was pre-
sented before the Fayette County
Rsr Association.
Reply to Communist Counsel.
In essence, it was reply to coun-
sci for II top Communist leaders
now on trial in Judge Knox's district
on charges of seeking forcible over
throw of the United States Govern
ment
Defense attorneys have argued
since the trial started last Monday
that the system of picking jurors
in the district discriminates against
the poor in favor of the wel-to-do
Judge Knox said he had been told
repeatedly that selection of jurors
in his district was a. "handpicked"
process.
Admits "Handpicked" Juries.
IF this be a valid indictment of
my conduct, cannot do otherwise
than admit my guilt" the jurist
said. Nevertheless, unless restrained
by an authorityt I cannot resist,
Jurors in my district will continue
to be handpicked"
Judge Knox served as chairman of
committee of Federal judges ap-
pointed some time ago to survey
the operations of the jury system
IN Federal trial courts.
All recommendations advanced by
the committee have not yet been
enacted into law, but many were
embraced in the new judicial code
that became effective last Septema
ber
If courts, in cases at law, are to
accomplish justice, they must have
the aid of jurors who believe" in
America. Judge Knox said.
Judge Must be Upright.
They also must be served by jul
rors who are honest and upright.
and who bring to their tasks the
intelligence, sound judgment, and
courage that will enable them right
ly to decide intricate questions of
fact and to do so, without fear or
favor, he added.
Jurors, Judge Knox said. should be
drawn so as to be representative of
the community. In order to accom-
plish this "the sources from which
they are selected should inlude all
economic and social groups" he con-
tinued, then added:
From whatever sources drawn.
those chosen should possess as high
a degree of intelligence, morality.
integrity and common sense as can
be found by those who make the
selection"
Judge Knox advised that the
choice of specific sources from which
names of prospective jurors are Sc
lected be entrusted to the good
faith" of the clerk and jury commits

4; will recommend such legislation
He believes, however, that a perma-
nent Government agency should
handle the program, since ECA has
only 81 years of life remaining
The program could give an added
lift to the European recovery pro-
gram, since many of the richest
under developed mineral resources
are in the colonies of Britain, Bel
gium, France, Holland and other
Marshall plan countries. However,
Mr.. Truman made it plain that he
was thinking in global terms, pre-
snmably including Latin America,
Australia and the Far East.
So far, only $l8,000,000 worth
of rubbeN, sisal fiber and industrial
diamonds have been purchased by
ECA, all from British sources.
The American Economic
ana Social Council, made up of rep
resentatives of the 81 nations in the
Western Hemisphere, indorsing Mr.
Truman's global development plan,
called it new and bold" policy.
The council said that most of the
Latin American countries stand up
permost" among the underdeveloped
areas to which Mr.. Truman referred.
sCo-operation Stressed.
The councils main job is to lay
the ground work for economic CO.
operation among the American ma
tionS
Speaker Rayburn was confident
that the House would approve what
ever Mr.. Truman wanted to help
the world get "on its feet"
Il think if we can pass lend-lease
and u N. we can certainly do this" )"
he told reporters.
The Speaker said he did not visu-
alize the Presidents program as any
worldwide Reconstruction Finance
Corp, offering loans on a global
scale, out as a means to interest
private capital in aiding backward
areas.
On the other side of the political
fence, Senator Taft. Republican, of
Ohio, has made it plain he doubts
the feasibility of Mr.. Truman's bold
new program" to share the free
worlds technical skill and capital.
He saids last night that the pro-
posal "over-promises these nations"
The Governments present powers
to foster foreign investment are
small.
sECA Powers Cited.
ECA can sign a guaranty contract
with an American company under
taking to convert into dollars the
firms foreign earnings. 1t
does not guarantee that there will
be earnings; it simply gives assur-
ance that the company will not be
left with currency which it cannot
use. ECA has s30o,00O,o0O for this
purpose, but industry has shown
little interest. Only S1,000000 or
less has been committed
The agency also is authorized to
lend up to per cent of its for
eign-currency funds-the money put
up by European governments in
amounts equal to. American dollar
grants-to firms launching foreign
operations. Mining companies have
shown real interest" ECA officials
report. but none has actually taken
up the offer.
