quickly jumped into it, thus prob
ably escaping certain DEATH"
Frank Adan1ic said his brother

Referring to the firing Of the

clared:

The Yugoslav-born author was

Jury Has Testimony
I0n Police Bribes by
Baltimore Gamblers
BY the Assoeioted Press

BALTIMORE. Sept. IA re-
tiring Baltimore grand jury re-
ported today it had received
sworn testimony that gamblers
bribe police to escape arrest.
/ 1t urged Police Commissioner
Beverly Ober to look beneath the
surface" in his investigation of
protection payments.
| Submitting its report to Judge
Joseph Sherbow. in Baltimore
Criminal Court. the jury said its
information was not detailed
enough to warrant prosecution.
The document also indicated
that Gov. McKeldin was not avail
able to the jury when it wanted
to see him about his citizens COM
mittee investigating the operation
of the city police department.
Future grand juries that want
to, talk to Gov. McKeldin should
use their power of subpoena" tn,
report said.
Among other recommendations,
it called upon Ober to improve the
operation of the department by
demanding better supervision by
his subordinate officers.
The jury also said that the leg
islative council could contribute
great deal to the investigation
of the relationship between Or
ganized crime and politics in
Maryland.
The council has been studying
crime conditions throughout the
State and is scheduled to turn
its spotlight on Baltimore next
Tuesday.
Noting that bribery Of police
men "is so seldom done openly
|. it is a case of word against
word" the jury said "the evidence
is not strong enough to indict."
Fear of reprisals will prevent
honest police or citizens from
testifying." it continued. 1t sug-
geSted that the commissioner I'm
vite honest policemen, and there
are many, to call on him per-
sonally to tell him what they ac-
tually know. !"
