YMCA Farley Is Given
las CaIdweII's AIibi
|At Jury-Fixing Trial

Further testimony was offered
today in District Court to support
the alibi Of Bennie C. Caldwell,
81, proprietor of the Club Bali,
who is charged with jury tamper-
ling.
AS the trial went into its sixth
day a defense witness declared
that he and the colored night
club owner were comforting about
"a YMCA campaign at one of the
two times at which Caldwell is
accused of ringing doorbells of
Jurors in an attempt to influence
their verdict in gambling case.
Lawrence F. Hunt. executive
secretary Of the colored Y on
Twelfth street. told the jury of 10
men and two women that he and
Caldwell were among several per-
sons attending the campaign con-
ference in the club on the night
of January %, 1850.
$500 Offer Charged.
At $3.50 o'clock that night, the
Government contends, Caldwell
was at the home Of a woman juro,
in a gambling case against Will
liam (Snags) Lewis and offered
her $500 to vote mot guilty" in
that case.
| Mr.. Hunt testified today that he
and Caldwell were together In the
Club Bali at that hour.
The witness was subjected to
vigorous cross examination by
Assistant United States Attorney
William Hitz with respect to the
details Of time on a night more
than is months ago. Mr.. Hunt
maintained that he associated the
Occasion with his birthday, which
came later that week.
Another Witness Supports 1t.
Under the cross-examination,
the witness eventually said he was
reasonably certain. though not
absolutely positive" that he was
correct about the exact day.
Earlier in the trial before Judge
Richmond B. Keech, another de-
fense witness supported the Cald-
well alibi regarding the night OF
January 10, 1850, when he Is
charged with offering $1,000 to
a member of the Lewis jury panel
for information about how the
Jurors felt. That witness was Mrs
Ovella Yeoman. colored, an en-
Iploye Of the Club Bali. She testi-
fled last Friday that Caldwell was
in the club the entire evening OF
January 10.
Attorneys estimated that the
case would require one more day.

Senator. most Of the weapons
from dumps In Manchuria were
taken over by the Chinese Com
munists at q much later date,
after the generalissimo was and
had been apprised of the factors
that you have been referring to.
My own recollections is that
that apparently occurred with the
Russian formal withdrawal from
Manchuria, after I went to China,
and in 1916. -.
Now. after that, the Soviet troops
Withdrew, and my recollection sof
the factors involved in that were
that they virtually removed most
|of the rolling stock in that with
drawal, which left little for the
National government to utilize for
Its troops In following up the
withdrawal. and we meyer knew
specifically what happened, but
there were rumors, and there were
accusations, on the part of the
Chinese Nationalist government
that Communist troops had been
facilitated in their movement
north. and they then obtained
these dumps of supplies.
Loss of Troop Morale.
Senator Smith Now, is it
not fair question to ask whether
these developments in Manchuria
this secret agreement at Yalta, was
not an important contributory
factor because of the loss of mo-
rale in Chiang's troops, and their
later detection. and also the fall
ing away of the Chinese people
from Chang. which you testified
to earlier, which undoubtedly was
the case?

Secretary Marshall do not

mates of the petroleum supplies

withdrew they were opened to
