You can dodge United States

But you've got to go to Canada

Payment through banks, mail

The legal loophole to dodge the
3 per cent freight tax and the Is
per cent on passenger travel be-
came widely known yesterday.

The Federal Spotlight
Heat Policy Likely to Continue
Despite 'Tightening-Up' Moves
BY Joseph Young

fighting speech of Chairman Harry
B. Mitchell of the Civil Service
Commission. defending Federal
employees from charges of ineffi-
cheney and lazineSS. was hearten-
ing TO Government workers.
Addressing the Tri-State Con-
vention of the National League of
District PostmaSters yesterday, Mr.
Mitchell declared these charges are
nothing new-that they have been
made through the years. no matter
which party was in power. He
termed the attacks on Government
employees political propaganda"
Mr.. Mitchell said what many
tlmid Federal officials say pri-
vately. but are afraid to say openly
That's why the civil service chiefs
remarks are so important to the
morale of Federal workers.
Mr.. Mitchell Scoffed at the an
nounced aims of some members OF
Congress to cut Federal employ
ment by 100000. 1t can't be done
without Gripping essential public
services, Mr.. Mitchell said, ex-
pressing doubt that Congress woulc
want to take the responsibility TO,
that.
In fact, Mr.. Mitchell expressed
doubts there would be any large
cuts in the number of Federal EN-.
ployeS in the near future. How.
ever, 1t does seem apparent thai
Congress will trim Federal employ.
ment by about 100000 jobs durins

portion of the reductions occur.

'0f GoodIoe Is Due
To Go TO Jury Today


heard final arguments by oppos-
ing counsel in the trial of DR..
William A. Goodloe. accused of
performing an abortion on
young woman and of attempting
to bribe her not to appear be-
fore grand jury.
The jury was expected to be-
gin celebrating in the case this
afternoon.
Assistant United States Attor-
ney Arthur j. Mclaughlin, who
is prosecuting the 53-year-old
colored physician, argued that the
evidence showed DR.. Goodies
guilt. He told the jury that DR..
Goodloe had the young woman.
Miss Gloria M. Huffman. Is, of
Baltimore. remain at his home
for three days last February so
that it would not be revealed that
an abortion had been performed.
Otherwise. argued the prosecutor,
the physician would have sent her
to a hospital.
Defense Attorney Charles E.
Ford. in his argument to the jury.
said the Government had failed
to prove Miss Huffman had been
pregnant.
DR.. Goodloe took the stand yes
terday to deny he had performed
the abortion or in any way tried
to bribe Miss Huffman. DR.. Good
loe testified he had treated her for
internal bleeding and that he had
no suspicion that an abortion had
been performed by any one.
Doctor Is Final Witness.
The final defense witness called
today was DR.. Smallwood Ackiss,
631 M street NV, a colored ply
sician. He was questioned as to
technicalities of the treatment
the defense contends was given
Miss Huffman by DIR. Goodloe.
Miss Huffman was recalled to the
stand briefly. She testified that a
woman she previously knew only
as Bessie" was Mrs. Bessie M
White, colored. Miss Huffman
testified Mrs. White had nursed
her while she was at the physi-
clans home in the 1900 block of
S street NV.
Mrs. White had testified eaA1y
in the trial that she cooks for Dr..
Goodloe and that she had served
Miss Huffman meals, but said she
had never served her as a nurse.
Accused with DR.. Goodloe in the
bribery attempt charges only is
Miss Alice M. Galusha, 26. of 1900
block OF Clifton street NV. Miss
Galusha has been granted a sepa-
rate trial.
In his testimony yesterday DR.
Goodloe said Army Capt. An
drew Gleeson OF Fort Belvoir
paid him $3.50 for treating Miss
Huffman. DR.. Goodloe denied the
captain paid him $3.50. Capt. Glee-
son had said he paid DR.. Goodloe
$3.50 to perform an abortion.
Tells Of Mysterious Call.
DR.. Goodloe said he received q
mysterious telephone call" in
April. He said he told Miss Gal
usha of the call. He said he knew
her because she is a friend of his
wife.
DR.. Goodloe said that, in con-
versation with Miss Galusha, he
told her apparently they are try
ing to shake me down." The phys
ician testified Miss Galusha "vol-
unteered" to go to Baltimore to
talk to Miss Huffman. He denied
that he had ever given her any
money to give to Miss Huffman.
Earlier in the trial, a prosecu-
ton witness testified 5000 was
found on Miss Galusha when she
was arrested in Miss Huffman's
apartment last April. The prose
cution contends that Miss Gal
usha offered Miss Huffman a
ticket to California and expenses
not to appear as a grand jury
witness against DR.. Goodloe.
