Martin Under Oath
Just Didn't Know

There's nothing quite so def
mite SO open-and-shut as a
court record made under oath.
That is why the Journal is
giving its membership some ex-
cerpts this week from the testi-
mony given by Toots Martin in
the preliminary hearings before
Jud e Stanley A. Grzezinski
when he charged Arnold Shen-
ofsky with a felony.
Martin charged Shenofsky, i'm
his affidavit, wi t h unlawfully
cutting and stabbing him with
intent to main or disfigure, with
a dangerous instrument, to wit:
a bottle.
Under this charge, Shenofsky
could go to Jail for 80 years.
But testifying u n d n oath,
here is what Martin said about
the BASIS for his charge:
HE struck me with h some
thing; / don't know what he
struck me with
"I think i was hit with a
bottle. was told it was a
bottle. When they loaded me
i'm an ambulance, they made
the remark i was hit with
BOTTLE"
II was surely hit with
something"
II don't recall just what
happened"
"And the remark was made,
I recall, that Brother Martin
was hit over the head with q
pop bottle"
And when Moe Okun, attor-
ney for Shenofsky, began ques-
tioning Martin about the bottle
this is how the evidence"
came out:
"Now, Mr.. Martin, will you
tell the Court whether you saw
MIR. Shenofsky hit you with

bottle"
A-"Pll say MIR. Shenofsky
hit me with something nd
dazed me-"
Q-'You tell the Court here,
that it was a bottle"
Al think it's a bottle"
Q-"You think so?"
A-'That's right, I think
so. There is only one thing,
because / was told 1 was hit
over the head with a bottle"
Q-Now, have you anybody
here Ii a told you 1t was q
bottle?
Att was at my feet.
Q-Have you anybody here
that told you that?
Al didn't think we would
have witnesses testimony.
The witnesses to the affair
just before New Years signed
affidavits as to what they saw.
These affidavits were run in the
] urnal right after the big
hullabaloo over the fight.
Not one witness saw a bottle
in Shenofsky's hands; most of
them testified Gas Martin did at
the preliminary hearing) that
Shenofsky never drinks; and no.
body t n n supported Martins
charge.
And VIII n Martin, himself,
came to testify about it under
oath, as is shown above, all he
could tell the Court was what
he thought must have happened
and what "they" told him had
happened.
In this country man seldom
goes to Jail for 80 years on the
basis Of w h a t somebody told
somebody else he thought hap
pened.
The Grand Jury resumes it's
inquiry into the case this week.

u. n. Sources Still See

Red Buffer Zone Plan
BY Ernie Hill

NCHeSPOnoeht OF Inc StOB 0nd me AntSO9t
Dolly News
UNITED NATIONS, N. Y, July
11.-United Nations sources are
unable to detect any insurmount-
able obstacles to a Korean cease
fire following today's Kaesong
meeting between Communist and
u. N. representatives.
The Chinese and North Ko-
reans, according to Peiping radio
reports, have asked for a buffer
zone along the 38th Parallel and
withdrawal of all foreign troops
as part of a truce proposal.
The buffer zone was first Sug-
gested last December by 1t. Gen.
w. D. Crittenberger. American
general assigned to the U. N. mil
itary staff committee.
The exact location of the buf-
fer zone remains at issue but the
divergence of opinion is matter
of 10 to 80 miles of mountainous
Korean terrain.
Difficulties Are Emphasized.
The withdrawal of foreign
troops also has been demanded
by the U. N. in previous peat
proposals.
The Chinese Communists, / wv
ever, are asking the withdrawal
as part of a truce arrangement,
while American officers belize the
cease-fire must come first and any
withdrawal be arranged later.
One U. N. source points OFT that
1t is impossible to withdraw troops
until after a ceaSe-fire has sone
into effect. The U. N. in the past,
he states. has demanded a gen.
eral withdrawal over a period of
time, leaving the South Korean
Army in charge of its own situa-
ton, with U. N. observers to
watch it.
These fine points of discussion
are not considered insurmount-
able.
Reds Have Modified Demands.
The Chinese Communists have
backed down considerably from
their demands of last December.
At that time, they were de-
manding possession of Formosa.
a seat in the United Nations and
a Far East conference with
picked countries attending, in
cluding themselves.
None of these political matters
has been suggested by the Chin
ese during the first truce session.
1t is pointed out.
While great segment of the
American public may consider a
truce at the 38th Parallel a mill
tary defeat, the State Department
and some military leaders have
previously accepted the idea.
Gen. Matthew B. Ridgway stated
two months ago when United
Nations forces fought their way
back to the 38th that he consid-
cred this victory. Secretary of
State Acheson testified before
Congress recently that a settle
ment at the 38th was contem-
plated.
