Judges Order Phone Suit Trial;
Nothing to Try, Dissent Insists

The legal cacophony about E.
Bradley Clay's band business is
due for another chorus in the
courts, two of three judges on the
United States Court of Appeals
ruled today.
Mr.. Clay, 43, of 14o4 Tuckerman
street NV. a disabled war vet
eran. State Department employe
and part-tim provider of orches-
tras, asked the Chesapeake &
Potomac Telephone Co. to give
his band business telephone a diff
ferent number in 1948.
This. he said. the company
agreed to do and in addition
promised to have all calls to his
old number referred to the new
one. And this, he added, the COM
pany did-but for only five
months.
Contending that when the COM
pany discontinued the reference
service he lost $25, 900 in business.
Mr.. Clay sued for 100000 alleging
breach of contract.
District Court Judge Alexander
Holtzoff dismissed the claim, rul-
ing he lacked cause of action

Court Ruling Sought
On Segregation Here

The Corporation Counsels Office
today indicated it will seek a rul-
ing from the Municipal Court of
Appeals on the validity of long
unused anti-Segregation laws.
A spokesman said the Office
would seek a review by the appeals
court of recent action by Munich
pal Court Judge Frank H. Myers
in dismissing charges against the
Thompson Restaurant Co. The
company had been charged with
violation of the 1872 and 1873
anti-segregation statutes after 1t
refused to serve Negroes.
Judge Myers refused to allow
prosecution of the restaurant COM
pany on the grounds that he had
already ruled the law had been
repealed by implication. Thus, he
said, the District was attempting
to bring a charge under a law the
court had ruled invalid.
Judge Myers decision declaring
the anti-segregation laws invalid
was handed down in July in a test
case brought by the District.
After the judges original opin-
ion the District planned to appeal
the ruling but found it could not
because of a legal technicality.
The new charge against the
Thompson company was filed so
the way could be cleared to get
the case to the Appeals Court.

Mr.. Clay appealed.
In the appellate court reversal
today, Judges David Bazelon and
Charles Fahy said "undisputed
facts indicated otherwise.
In the dissenting opinion, Judge
Barrett Prettyman declared:
II don't know what my brethren
intend that the trial court do with
the case"
His dissent noted that Mr.. Clay
had offered no proof that he
missed any calls and that evidence
had failed to prove existence of a
contract.

trying issues which the parties
agree, and the trial court has

IF this court means that sum-

by Victor H. M. Joseph, presi-
dent, who, in reviewing the apple
season just ended, said: The ex-

Radiomen Study Peril
OF Bombing Attacks
Guided by Broadcasts

The possibility that enemy air.
craft and guided missiles might
"ride into" their targets in this
country on radio and television
beams was under serious dis
cussion here today.
Formation of a defense council
in the radio industry to aid the
Government in current interna-
tional problems was a prime aim
of a special meeting of the board
of directors of the National AS
sociation Of Broadcasters. The
two-day session got under way
this morning at the Washington
Hotel, but deliberations were
secret.
The 27-man board was called
into special session by President
Justin Miller, former judge Of
the United States Court of Ap-
pealS here.
The chance of enemy flyers or
airborne weapons being guided in
their deadly missions over the
United States by radio also
brings into the picture the posi-
bility of silencing Canadian and
Mexican stations, as well, ex-
pertS pointed out. Television,
frequency incubation and ampli-
tude modulation stations are all
affected in the problem.
Wayne Coy, chairman Of the
Federal Communications Com
will meet with the board
at 9 am. tomorrow at the Wash
ington Hotel. He will discuss a
number of problems brought
about by the international emer-
gency.
The board will confer with
Assistant John r.
Steelman at the White House at
3 pm. tomorrow.
The question of the restoration
Of wartime censorship and wheth-
er 1t shall be under civilian or
military direction is also receiv-
ing attention during the boards
A number of tech
nical problems affecting national
defense are also under conSidera-
ton.

Barrett Appears
Before Jury on
Wire-Tapping.
In Room go Minutes;
New Developments,
If Any, Withheld

Police Superintendent Robert J.
Barrett appeared today before the
Federal grand jury investigating
wire-tapping.
He was believed to have been
questioned about events leading up
to the police report on 1t. Joseph
w. Shimon. who was transferred
to a precinct after allegations
of overlapping.
1t. Shimon was chief investi-
gator for the United States At
torney's Office at the time of the
alleged wire-tapping of the tele-
phone of Howard Hughes, mil
lionaire industrialist.
ShrOuded in Secrecy.
The police report on 1t. Shimon
was sent to the Justice Depart
ment a year ago and has been
shrouded in secrecy ever since.
Maj. Barrett, however, has been
directed to produce it when he
appears Wednesday before a SEN
ate District subcommittee en-
barking on its own overlapping
probe.
The grand jury was believed to
have asked Maj. Barrett specific
ally if he directed 1t. Shimon to
wiretap. Maj. Barrett already has
denied that.
Maj. Barrett left the grand jury
room after 80 minutes of testi-
mony. He still carried a manila
envelope, contents of which he
would not disclose. This left un-
answered the question whether he
showed the jurors his copy of the
year-old police report on 1t. Shi-
mons activities.
Developments Not Disclosed.
In answer to other questions by
reporters, the police chief said he
had been notified" to appear be-
fore the grand jury. Asked if there
was any new development in the
Shimon case as far as the police
department is concerned, Maj.
Barrett said: "They told me not
to tell YOU"
The police chief followed string
OF witnesses heard by the grand
jury last week. Included among
them were United States Attorney
George Morris Fay; Samuel F.
Pryor, vice president of Pan
American Airways, and Senator
Brewster, Republican, of Maine.
Senator Brewster told report
erS he appeared because his sec
retary. who had been asked to
testify, was in Maine on her va
cation and he didn't want to in
terrupt it.
The Senator has admitted he
authorized his secretary to pay 1t.
Shimon $100, but he denied the
payment was for wire-tapping.
He said 1t. Shimon was collecting
for expenses incurred in checking
on an ex-convict who was shadow
ing Senator Brewster during the
1947 Senate investigation of Mr..
Hughes wartime plane contracts.
