NEW YORK, Sept. 20.--A panel

Mr.. Mcdonald suggested that
Gross may have been bribed last
week when the bookie made a
runaway trip to the Atlantic City
race track and returned to Brook
Ilyn-but not until he had been
free for whole day.
"It came to me from an official
source" Mr.. Mcdonald said in

his return from Atlantic City, that
there was wagering going on that
he would never testify and that

For that reason, Senator Hen

study of all the parliamentary
aspects"
1T may be-" said Senator Hen

to be a matter the Senate itself
will have to decide-that is.
whether the subcommittee can
consider the Benton resolution
without specific authorization by
the Senate.
Must Define Authority.
II certainly am going to insist
that the parliamentary facets be
well defined before ! undertake

Senator Hendrickson expressed
his views as the subcommittee
tentatively scheduled another r
meeting to discuss the Benton
resolution. The group postponed
a decision yesterday at the re-
quest of Senator Hennings, Demo-
crat, of Missouri, who was out of
town.
Senator Mccarthy wrote Sena-
tor Hennings Tuesday suggesting
that the Missouri lawmaker dis
qualify himself from consideration
of the resolution. Senator Nc
Carthy said he brought up the
matter, in part, because one of
Senator Hennings' law partners,
John Raeburn Green, is repre-
senting John Gates. editor of the
Communist Daily Worker and one
of the IL top Communists con-
victed of conspiring to advocate
forcible overthrow of the govern
ment.

Senator Hennings' Office has
said Mr.. Green had written he
was appealing Gates case without
fee because Mr.. Green felt the
issue of freedom of speech to be
included. but that he had no SYM
pathy with the Communist.
The Benton resolution proposes
further investigation of Senator
McCarthy's role in the successful
campaign conducted last year in
behalf of Senator John Marshall
Butler, Maryland Republican. In
a recent report criticizing the
campaign, the Gillette subcom-
mittee said Senator Mccarthy was
actively interested"

an inquiry into Senator McCar-
thy's other activities since his
election in 1916.

Graft Trial Prosecutor Tries to Salvage Case
sy III. Associated Press

NEW YORK, Sept. Do
Brooklyn grand jury investigating
graft faced an almost hopeless
salvage task today-its case
against 18 policemen smashed to
bits BY Harry Gross, the stubborn
IboOkie.
Nevertheless, District Attorney
Miles r. Mcdonald said he was
going to try to pick up the
pieces
He didn't say what, II anything,
the grand jury can do now that
the biggest fish have escaped It's
net.
But Mr.. Mcdonald claimed In
formation from an official source
that a $4,000 payoff to Gross
made him refuse to testify
|maneuyer thai wrecked 20 months
|of work for Mr.. Mcdonald and
left him In tears.
Brooklyn Judge Samuel s.
I Leibowitz, in bitter fury, threw
the case out Of court late yester-
day. He freed the 18 policemen
after Mr.. Mcdonald said 1t was
futile to go on.
The 18 were accused of shar-
ing in 81 million a year in bribes
paid by Gross when the pudgy
|bookie was riding high as kingpin
Iof a $40 million-a-year gambling
ring. The specific charge was
conspiracy to obstruct justice by
allegedly protecting the betting
syndicate.
Gross was the States key wit
mess. When he wouldn't testify,
there just wasn't any case left.
Judge Leibowitz-formerly an
internationally famed defense
llawyer-called the defiant Gross
"a miserable wretch" and gave
him five years in jail plus a
isis, 900 fine on so counts of con-
tempt of court.
And the judge plainly regarded
this as only the beginning. He
limited he will go all-out to in
lfluence a sky-high prison SEN
Itence when the 35-year-old ex-
bookie goes into Special Sessions
court October 8 for further SEN
Itencing.
Could Get 6S Years.
Gross has pleaded guilty to 66
counts Of conspiracy and gam
bling. The penalty is a maximum
SO years in prison.
"I am not preSuming to tell the
court of special sessions what
they should do" Judge Leibowitz
said grimly. But I think ms
conduct here ought to be called
Ito the attention of that court. /"
Normally. however. Gross could
hope to escape with far less than
the maximum So years.
Mr.. Mcdonald only year ago
was mentioned as a possible
Democratic candidate for Cover
nor of New York because of his
work in smashing Gross gambling
ring.
His future far less bright now
He told Judge Leibowitz:

Taft Says Red Threat
Is Only Justification
ForU.5. ForeignP Policy
sy ,he A,,oeio,ed Pres,

ST. PAUL, Mimi. Sept. 20
Senator Taft, Republican. of Ohio
said today American foreign policy
in the present emergency can be
justified only because Of the rus.
sian threat"
"The various programs into
which we have been forced. he
said in a speech prepared for a
businessmen's luncheon, should
be re-examined the moment the
Russian threat relaxes, and aban-
doned unless they are in accord
with our permanent interests"
Senator Taft, chairman OF the
Senate Republican Policy Com
mittee. said current programs
such as defense alliances. eco
nomic and military aid to other
free peoples, and extensive rearm-
ament at home-do not avert the
possible danger of war with Russia.
Sees No Alternative.
But, he added. there seems to
be mo alternative in view OF the
fanatical spirit of communism and
the truculent manner in which
Russia itself conducts its foreign
policy
1--WE can only hope" he con-
tinued, "to keep our own foreign
policy from unnecessarily provok-
ing war which otherwise might
not occur"
Senator Taft is on a speaking
tour of several Western States. He
said he will outline his own for
eign policy views for the present
emergency in more detail in later
speeches.
Today he confined his remarks
to emphasizing a difference be-
tween the fundamental purposes
of our foreign policy in normal
times and the emergency measures
into which we are forced because
of the Russian threat"
He also took poke at the State
Department which, he said, has
operated on a theory of ex-
pediency supported by propa-
ganda."
Roosevelt, Truman Accused.
And he accused Presidents
Franklin D. Roosevelt and Tru-
man of putting "all kinds of polit-
ical and policy considerations
ahead of their interest in liberty
and peace"
mo foreign policy, either in the
present emergency situation or in
ordinary times he said, can
be truly justified unless it is de-
voted without reservation or di-
version of purpose to the protec-
ton of the liberty of the American
people, with war only as a last
resort and only to preserve that
liberty"
Senator Taft said the Soviet
threat has become so serious that
this country is justified in ex-
tending economic aid and military
aid to many other countries.
But he said the aid should be
extended only when it can be
clearly shown in each case that
such aid will be an effective means
of combating Communist aggres-
sion" This should not be con-
sidered as part of any permanent
foreign policy, he said.
He asserted this country's re-
armament effort should be direct
ed particularly toward develop
ing IAN all-powerful air force"
Some Restraint Urged.
Senator Taft cautioned that this
Nation cannot adopt a foreign
policy which gives away all Of
our peoples earnings or imposes
such tremendous burden on the
individual American as, in ef-
feet, to destroy his incentive and
his ability to increase production
and productivity and his stand
ard of living"
I'VE cannot assume a financial
burden in our foreign policy so
great that it threatens liberty at
home" he declared.

The arborvitaes are not often

an important point in their favor
However. they are not immune to

Gardeners suspect a disease on
their shrubs because of brown
foliage in the early spring. This
is a normal condition. due to win
ter winds which dry the foliage
or to sun scorch-the latter is
rather commonplace and is due to
leaf activity during warm sunny
days followed by freezing tempera-
lures at night.
To summarize: The arborvitae
is a useful evergreen for the home
grounds but the right variety
should be selected for the site
buy according to variety habit of
growth. Avoid crowding and pro-
tect the shrub from red spiders
and bagworms. Prune regularly
in the early spring to keep the
shrubs compact and vigorous in

be employed for this purpose.
