CAsTEL GANDoLFo, Nov. Z.
Pope Plus XII, in an apparent
blow against Communist-eon-

Roman Catholic judges must
never recognize unjust laws.
He ruled that Catholic judges
bear grave responsibility for the
application of laws contrary to
Christian concepts.

and lawyers in an address to
members of an italian Catholic

The rules appeared aimed at

7 Witnesses Warned
On Court CONTEMPT al
Lewis Gambling Trial
Sports News Distributor
And Woman Refuse
+. To Answer Questions .

District Court Judge Matthew
F. MCGUIRE warned two reluctant
witnesses today that they would
be in contempt Of court if they
persisted In refusing to answer
proper questions put to them in
the trial Of William "Snags" Lewis
and 13 eo-defendants.
The IA are on trial on gambling
charges which followed Govern
ment raid on~a bungalow in the

bungalow.
One Of the witnesses warned by
Judge Mcclure was Murray H.

Government contends the Lewis
syndicate got horse race results
by ticker and telephone from Offs
concern.
The other witness was Mrs.
Sadie L. Stanton Of the Forty
sixth street address.
Clashes With Attorney.
Both witnesses had first refused
to answer questions on grounds
that the answers would tend to
incriminate them in violation OF
their constitutional rights.
The trial also brought a clash
between Myron Ehrlich, one of
the attorneys for the defendants,
and Judge Mcclure. Mr.. Ehrlich3
made numerous objections to
questions by Assistant United
States Attorney William Hitz and
Judge Mcclure finally ordered

The Government had Mrs.
Stanton brought into court today
and OF looked at her and said
he never saw her before.
Testimony last week was to the
effect that. a ticker was placed in
the home at Forty sixth and Up
