BrambIef Indictment
Sustained fferAtfack
On Jury Selection

Federal Judge F. Dickinson
Let's today refused to dismiss
an 18-count indictment against
Representative Ernest K. Bran
blett, Republican. of California.
accused of payroll padding.
In memorandum opinion the
judge held that although the
jury commission may have erred
in barring as prospective grand
jurors District residents who
vote elsewhere, the exclusion
was not intentional or system
attic"
Attorneys for Bramblett had
moved to dismiss the indictment
on the grounds that the grand
jury which returned it was i'm
properly paneled because of the
exclusions.
Based on Honest Belief.
Referring to the prospective
jurors who vote elsewhere, Judge
Let's wrote: ut conclusively ap-
pears that such prospective
jurors were excluded by the jury
commission upon the honest be-
lief that they were not residents
of the District and so were not
eligible for jury service.
1T follows that their exclusion
was not the result of Intentional
and systematic purpose to ex-
clude them merely because they
were voters"
The judge held that "the err
roneous understanding of the
law" resulted only in an cir
regularity" He declared: "It has
never been supposed that the
jury commissioners, unlike all
mankind, were incapable of mis-
take.
Trial Set for Monday.
At any rate. the judge said
there is no evidence that Bran
blett has suffered any injury be-
cause of the "irregularity."
Bramblett is scheduled for trial
next Monday. He is accused IF
falsely certifying as clerks two
women in order to obtain clerk
hire allowances.
The women involved are Mrs.
Margaret Swanson, wife of Irv-
ing Swanson, former Republican
minority clerk of the House, and
Mrs. John Hardaway, wife of
Bramblett's former campaign
manager in California.
Still to be heard are arguments
attacking the indictment on other
grounds including the contention
that certain of the counts should
be thrown out under a three
year statute of limitations.

County Wheat Growers Side With
Other Virginia Groups for Quotas

Prince Edward county wheat
growers sided with other Virginia
farmers in favor Of imposing
wheat marketing quotas on the
1854 crop to be planted this fall
The official tally was IS for
quotas, nine against, and five
challenged ballots. These last will
be studied by PIMA officials here
to determine their validity. They
will make no difference in the re-
suit. however. since the required
two thirds majoring favoring
quotas has been established with
out them
The Friday referendum thus
put Virginia on the side of quotas,
which were last imposed in 1912
Statewide, the PMA's unofficial
tally showed l,4l5 for and 237
against quotas. Similar referen-
dums were conducted throughout
the u s.. to determine national
policy.

to wheat allOtments, already eS-
tablished by the Department of
Agriculture for the 1854 crop.
With quotas, local PIMA officials
state, growers with allotmentS in
excess OF is acres. who exceed
that acreage, will lose the support
price and pay as per cent of the
support price as penalty on the
average.
Growers with less than l5-acre
allotments, who overplant, Will
lose the support price, but Will
have no quota penalty.
Price Supports
In essence, the quota system
VIII provide for government price
supports at 90 per cent of parity
The 1854 parity is expected to be
in line with this years which
varied in Virginia counties from
S2.37 to S24l a bushel. This
meant that farmers Melted about
S220 per bushel, or some 40 to
so cents per Dushel above the free
market price
Prior to the referendum, PIMA
official in Richmond said farmers
could not expect high price sup
ports if they were unwilling to
vote in marketing quota controls
to 60 along with allotments.
Lack Of storage facilities here
makes many growers sell on the
free market rather than store
wheat to gain advantage of sup
port prices.
