Tells Of Away Split
In Numbers Profits
income, Payroll Data
Admitted Despite
Vigorous Objection

By w. H. Shippen

Testimony OF the accountant
who prepared income and payroll
taxes for Charles E. Nelson and
associates was admitted today at
the lottery conspiracy trial of
Nelson and Is others over strenu-
Gus objection by defense counsel.
william B. Francis Of Silver
| Spring, Md, was allowed to tell
la District Court jury of the part
Inership In which rich numbers
profits were split four ways dur
ing q period when Nelson and his
wife withdrew from active par
lticipation.
| From 194E to September, 1850
Mr.. Francis said, he made out
Federal and Maryland income
taxes and prepared payroll deduc-
tiors for the Robert L. Nowland
Associates" He said profits were
split four ways among defendants
Nelson, Mrs. Virginia Madge Mel
son, Robert L. Nowland and his
wife, Mrs. Mary c. Nowland.
Material Held Privileged.
The defense protested the ad-
mission of the testimony on
grounds that income tax data is
privileged. Judge James r. Kirk
Hand pointed out that Judge F.
Dickinson Let's already had ruled
that Nelson voluntarily" opened
his records to Senate investiga-
tors.
In view of the fact that Nelson
had waived his privilege, the judge
said he would allow Mr.. Francis
to testify about information sheets
as to payroll and partnership
profit agreements given the ac-
countant by the Nowlands..
This apparently opened the way
for introduction Of a large amount
of documentary evidence seized by
Senate investigators last August

at Ritchie, Md.
NOwlands Rights Cited.
Defense Counsel T. Edward
IO'C Connell, who represents the
lNoWlands and the Nelson's, pro-
tested that Nelson could not waive
lthe privilege Of the Nowlands.
The point was debated in the
Iabsence Of the jury for almost two
hours.
Mr.. Francis. who is q brother
lin-law Of Mrs. Nowland. testified
he went to the Nowlands' home

Ito discuss loss carry-backs on tax
returns. He said Mrs. Nowland
told him she had asked Nelson for
help because Of considerable
losses and that Nelson had refused
lto give the help.
Previous testimony indicated
that the syndicate was hard hit In
June. 1850, and that the Nelson's
