Alger Hiss Disbarred

was disbarred today from prac-
ticing law in New York State.
The appellate division of the

ceased to be a qualified attorney.
Hiss was convicted by a Federal
Court jury January 81 and four
days later was sentenced to a term
of five years in prison. The case
is being appealed.
The former State Department
oficial was found guilty of lying

enz, a former Communist, is
"either plain old-fashioned lial
or pathological liar"
Mr.. baltimore, a Far Eastern
specialist, went before a Senate
group for the second time to deny
accusations of Senator Mccarthy
Republican, of Wisconsin, that he
was Communist and Soviet agent
who has influenced American pol
icy in the Orient.
His testimony principally was
in answer to that of Mr.. Budenz
who has testified that's Communist
leaders told him Mr.. baltimore
was a member of a Communist
cell and subject to discipline OF
the party.
Also Assails Mccarthy.
While most of his long state
ment was in reply to the Budenz
testimony, Mr.. baltimore also
scored Senator Mccarthy as "a
character assassin" and struck
back at Miss Freda Utley. lecturer
and writer. and others who have
testified in support of the Nc
Carthy charges.
He charged that Senator Nc
Carthy has debased the processes
of the United States and has
lied, distorted and villified."
He added that Senator Nc
Carthy also has Improperly re-
ceived and used classified infor-
nation" and that he has used
discre d j table and disreputable
sources of false information" He
said the Wisconsin Republican
has "disgraced his party and the
people of his State and Nation
and has previously prejudicec
the interests of our country"
Declares Charges Are Unsupported
He called on the Senate Foreign
Relations Subcommittee investi-
eating the Mccarthy charges Of
communism in the State Depart.
ment to point these things out
in clear and unambiguous terms
and of the specific charges against
him he declared:
You need go no further than
the undisputed facts-you need &c
no further than the charges
which are not supported by q
shred of evidence, perjured OF
otherwise-to establish that the
Senator criminally libeled me-"
He called Senator Mccarthy
clearly a bad policy risk" and
ripped into the Wisconsin Republi-
cans own background with ref

Maragon Sentenced
To 8 10 "a Months
In Perjury Case
Equal Terms on Euch
Of Two Counts Ordered
TO Run ConcurrentIy

John F. Maragon was sentenced
in District Court today to from
8 months to years in Jail fol-
lowing his conviction on two
counts of perjury for lying to Sen
ate "five-percenter" investigators.
Judge Jennings Bailey gave the
58-year-old Greek American the
I8 month to 2 year sentence on
each of two perjury counts, but
added the sentences would be
served concurrently.
Maragon was found guilty April
26 on two counts of perjury be-
fore the Senate subcommittee.
Immediately after his convic-
ton, the 58-year- -old Greek -.Ameri-
can was sent to jail by Judge
Bailey, who presided at the TO-
day trial.
The jury deliberated only an
hour and 36 minutes before find
ing Maragon guilty of lying to the
Senate subcommittee when he tes-
titled last July that:
l. He had only one bank account
in 1945-1946. The evidence showed
he had one here and another in
Texas.
2. He had severed connections
with Albert Verley g. Co., Chi
cago perfume firm, when he took
an overseas job with the State
Department in 1945.
The jury. however, cleared Mar
agon of one of the charges the
Government had brought against
him-that he perjured himself in
saying he negotiated no business
with the Government and re-
ceived no fees for such negotia-
tionS from 1945 to the middle of
last year.
Maragon was on a first-name
basis with officials from Capitol
Hill to the White House last sum-
mer when the "f1ve-percenter'
group started taking an interest in
his affairs. The Senators were
investigating men who sell their
supposed influence with public
officials for a fee.
Last July %. they called Mara
gon to a closed session. It was his
testimony there-and subsequent
conflicting testimony from other
witnesses-that led to his indict-
ment on perjury charges last Jan
uary 8.
At the outset of his trial, his at
torney. Irwin Goldstein, described
Maragon as a peanut vendor
among princes" But Assistant
United States Attorney Charles B.
Murray described him as a man
who tried to coerce Federal en-
ployes into doing his bidding by
making use of the name of his
time friend. Maj. Gen. Harry
