New Hiss Appeal Fai|s;
Virtually No Chance
OF Avoiding Jail Now
BY the Asseeiated Press

Alger Hiss appeared today to
have virtually no chance of avoid
ing prison term on his perjury
conviction.
The time State Department
official was sentenced to serve five
years on a charge that he lied to
a Federal grand jury when he
denied he gave secret documents
to Whitaker Chambers. Cham
bers is a confessed courier for a
preWar Red spy ring.
The Supreme Court by a 60
vote yesterday refused to review
Hiss conviction. This left the
former Government official with
only two slim avenues of possible
escape:
/. A request that the Supreme
Court reconsider it's refusal. Such
requests must be filed within Is
days and are rarely granted by
the high tribunal. Hiss attorney
said in New York that such a
move was unlikely.
May Appeal to Truman.
2. Hiss friends might intercede
with President Truman to grant
executive clemency-a pardon or
parole. There appeared little
likelyhood Mr.. Truman would
do so.

It's believed that Mr.. Ramspeck

assignment in a year or two. The

When Mr.. Ramspeck feels he

Mr.. Ramspeck, veteran of II

Incidentally. Mr.. Ramspeck's S

New Maryland District

A Democratic bill to carve a

Sional district out of Baltimore is
before the House of Delegates to-
day.
The measure last night passed
the Senate by a vote of Is to II,
with 10 Republican Senators and
one Democrat opposing it. The
proposed seventh district would be
Baltimore's third congressional
district. The city now has two.
The redistricting proposal also
would alter slightly boundaries of

Maryland.

Ramspeck is due to take over his

APPROPRIATIONS-The years
first money bill, containing 1852
funds for the Treasury and Post
Office Departments, is expected to
be reported Friday by the House
Appropriations Committee.
Government officials and en-
ployes will be watching the COM
mittee's action closely, since it
may tip it's hand on what it is
going to door not going to do
about Federal employe restrictive
riders in regard to leave and
other working conditions.
This year Congress is returning
to the system of individual ap-
preparation bills, instead of last
years omnibus measure, which
Jumped all departments and agen-
cies into one bill Therefore, if
any restrictive riders are to be
adopted this year they'll have to
be attached to the individual
money bills. So the Treasury
Post Office appropriations bill
should be the tip-off on what Fed
eral employees can expect this year
in the way of amendments.
For one thing the committee
must decide whether to retain
the Whitten amendment. which
bars permanent promotions and
transfers in Government. Also, it
must vote on whether to continue
the ban on further accumulation
of annual leave, or whether to
discard this ban in view of the
national defense program. The
present ban requires employees to
use last years 26 days leave by
June 30.
Other riders are being suggest
ed by several committee members
to cut annual leave and to in
crease working hours in Govern
ment.
RETIREMENT-When a Sen
ate Civil Service Subcommittee
opens hearings later this week on
the bill to liberalize the civil serv-
ice retirement system, the various
employe groups will urge several
important revisions in the bill.
AS the bill now stands, retired
annuitants drawing more than

Grand Jury Receives
Inside Story From
u. ). on Sam Beard
By james }. CuIIinone

The inside" story of the multi
million dollar operations of Sam
Beard, big time Washington gam
bier, is to be unfolded before a
Federal grand jury in Baltimore
today.
| United States Attorney Bernard
J. Flynn said he will ask the grand
jury to indict Beard, described by
the Justice Department as one of
the biggest gamblers on the East
ern Seaboard. as a tax evader.
The Bureau of Internal Revenue
last week slapped a $4,167 1928 tax
lien on the 60-year-old gambling
boss charging he owed that
amount in taxes, interest and PEN
alties for 1914 and the three fol-
lowing years.
Beard was arraigned before
United States Commissioner Err
nest Volkart in Baltimore yester-
day on tax-dodging charges and
was ordered held under $4,000
bond for court action. A profess
sionaI bondsman posted the bond
and the short, stout gambler was
released from the court house
lookup after 80 minutes.
Erickson Checks Disclosed.
A portion of the story the grand
jury will hear today was made
public at the hearing before Com
missioner Volkhart when an In
ternal Revenue Bureau agent tes-
titled Beard received nine checks
worth $180,000 from Frank Erick-
son, New York bookmaking cZar,
in 1914. ....#
The agent, Samuel Ford. is
scheduled to be the principal wit
ness before the grand jury today.
Mr.. Flynn said today's revela-
tions before the grand jury will be
confined to Boards operations in
1914. The only witnesses he said.
will be Internal Revenue Bureau
agents who began checking back
on Boards sources OF income in
1916.
Later, Mr.. Flynn said, the grand
jury, will be told of Boards opera
tions in 1945-46-47 and asked to
indict him for evading taxes in
those years.
Attorneys Lose Request.
Boards attorney, Michael Gould.
of Washington, and Thomas Ken
ney, of Baltimore. fought hard
before Commissioner Volkhart
yesterday to force the Govern
ment to disclose all the evidence
the tax agents have uncovered.
But Mr.. Flynn successfully con-
tended that the Government had
to show only that Beard had re-
ceived income which was not re-
ported on his tax return and was
entitled to withhold other evidence
until the case came to trial.
I Mr.. Gould challenged the Gov
ernment to produce Erickson, ad-
mitted boss of a $12.5 Million a.
year bookmaking syndicate, and
let him tell of his dealings with
Beard.
Agent Ford disclosed that Erick-
son, now serving a 2-year prison
term for violating gambling laws,
has "squealed' on his former
gambling associates.
