CopIon Trial in N. Y.
Delayed 10 October IS,
Judqe Unavailable
By The Associoted Press

NEW YORK, July 8.-The
espionage trial of Judith Coplon
and Valentine Gubitchev has been
put off until October Is.
The case, scheduled to start
July II, was adjourned yesterday
because of the unavailability now
of judge in the Southern Fed
eral District of New York to pre-
side at the trial.
The move was announced by
Federal Judge William Bondy
after an hour-long session with
opposing attorneys.
Miss Coplon, now free on
total of $4,000 bail. was convict
ed in Washington on charges OF
spying for Russia. She was sem
fenced TO 40-months-to -10-years
prison term. Her attorney an
nounced an appeal of the verdict.
Accused of Conspiracy.
Miss Coplon and Gubitchev, q
former United Nations employe.
are under another indictment
here on charges of conspiring to
commit espionage. The Russian
is free in 100000 bail.
Archibald Palmer, Miss Coplon's
attorney, asked the court yester-
day to order that papers seized
from the former Government girls
purse at the time of her arrest
be barred from her trial here.
This motion will be argued
July II. Mr.. Palmer contends the
seizure by the Federal Bureau Of
Investigation was illegal.
Seeks to Void Indictment.
Mr.. Palmer said he would argue
Monday for dismissal of the in
dictment against Miss Coplon on
the ground that FBI agents "testi-
fed they never saw anything pass"
between Miss Coplon and Gubit-
chev. He said that therefore there
was no witness before the grand
jury who could support the claim
of any crime having been COM
mitted."
The attorney said he would seek
also permission to examine the
grand jury minutes in an attempt
to show there was mo legal evil
dence to support the indictment.
Gubitchev was not represented
by counsel today.

Appeal Court Upho|ds
Aid Of Soldiers in
Davenport Conviction

Use of soldiers to aid police in
arresting and convicting law
breakers is Endorsed in a new
ruling of the Municipal Court of
Appeals unfolding conviction Of
David Douglas Davenport. "a, now
serving Jail term for keeping
and selling liquor without license.
The decision, announced yester-
day, denied an appeal filed by
Davenport's attorney, Saul G.
Lichtenberg, against a conviction
that brought Davenport sem
tence of a year in Jail and 81 900
fine. A jury found the defendant,
who formerly lived in the 900 block
of G place NV, guilty of four
counts of keeping liquor for sale
and eight counts of selling it in
Union Station.
Council Hits Army.
During the trial, Davenport S
attorney told the jury, the court
said, that "the people on trial are
not Davenport, but the United
States Army-the disgraceful ex-
hibition of informers. stool pigeons
| in unifroms of the United States
Army. That Is what is on trial. y
He asked the trial judge, the
appellate court pointed out, to
instruct the jury that the tes-
timony of these 'informers' should
be ignored and disregarded as
being without corroboration. high
ly suspicious and unworthy OF
belief"
This was denied. and we think
correctly" the three-man appeals
court declared.
Earlier Opinion Quoted.
Quoting it's own opinion in an
earlier appeal by Davenport in
another case, the court said SOL
diers are neither informers nor
detectives engaged in the business
of spying for hire and are not the
type of witnesses whose testimony
the court must instruct shall be
received with caution"
The appellate judges commented
that the Army's interest was
based on a desire to prevent the
illegal sale of liquor to young SOL
diers coming through on trains" :"
Before his current Jail term,
Davenport appeared in Municipal
Court on various charges more
than 100 times in little more than
a year.

II would certainly hope, Senator

At the end of the war, pending the
legislation which was finally
passed, I do not think any one
and I speak to the point of Los

the period of 1945 to the beginning
of 1947 what it has been possible
to do since the beginning Of 1947.

Gen. McCormock's Views
Clarified by Record

The Star has received a COM
plant from the Information
Service of the Atomic Energy
Commission to the effect that the
reporting of the atomic energy
hearings in yesterdays Star in
dicated that Brig. Gen. James
Mccormack, jr.. was critical OF
the Army's handling of the atomic
energy project.
The record of the hearings
show that Gen. Mccormack. who
is director of the commissions
Division of Military Application,
praised the work of the Army's
Manhattan project, which di-
rected the wartime development
of atomic energy In speaking
of conditions when the commits
sion took over the atomic weapons
work, Gen. Mccormack said:
"At the beginning of 1947 Los
Alamos was not only the heart
of the weapons program-it was,
in fact, the whole of it. And the
QenClenCleS WHICH Lne commission
found at Los Alamos were many.
Not Made in Criticism.
This statement is not made. of
course, in criticism of the Army
management, which was then on
its way out: indeed as an Army
officer myself. I can say that it
would be a point of great pride to
me had I been connected with
the Manhattan project from its
beginning until it's final disband-
ment and be in a position to take
some credit for its achievements
However, the simple fact was
-Ithat at the beginning of 1947
Los Alamos was on its back. The
big job then was to sort out from
the seemingly infinite number OF
deficiencies those whose correction
should help most in putting the
enterprise on its feet again"
The Star referred to the ION
its back" quotation, and to SEN
ator Hickenlooper's remark after
Gen. Mccormack had completed
his statement. Senator Hicken-
