Court Of Appeals
ReVerses Bowers
Contempt Conviction
Bx HoMord [. putkin


The q. s. Court Of Appeals for
the District Of Columbia today
threw out the contempt Of Con-
eress conviction Of George L.
Bowers, Chicago and Miami
gambling figure.
The court held that questions
asked Bowers by the Senate
Crime Investigating Committee,
which he declined to answer,
were not shown to be pertinent
to the inquiry. The questions
were about his business activities
and whether he knew certain in
dividuals.
The Senate committee was
investigating whether organized
crime operates In interstate
commerce.
The law pertaining to con-
tempt Of Congress says any per.
son summoned to give testimony
shall be guilty Of q misdemeanor
II he refuses to answer any
question pertinent to the ques-
tien under inquiry"
Convicted Here in March.
! Bowers was convicted by q
jury In the U. s. District Court
for the District Of Columbia last
March. In his charge to the
jury at that time Federal Judge
Edward A. Tamm had instructed
the jury that "the question which
the indictment alleges were
asked of the defendant were
pertinent to the question then
under inquiry"
The Appeals Court declared:
I'm sense. the subcommittee
seems to have accused Bowers of
guilt through casual acquaint-
ance, which is even worse than
guilt by association"
The court, In citing past cases,
declared: I'VE think that, when
q question is not In itself or be-
cause Of its context plainly peril
nent, the United States must
somehow show its pertinency to
the court; and, If it does not do
so, the court may not hold the
question pertinent as q matter
Of law.
Can't Presume Pertinency.
I'm q case like this, the trial
Judge has no more right to pre-
sumo pertinency without proof
than jury has to guess at guilt.
Since pertinency was not shown
here, a verdict Of not guilty as
tn all counts should have been
directed. Upon remand, the Dis
trict Court should enter a judg-
ment Of acquittal."
It was the only such decision
decided against any defendant
In this jurisdiction on contempt
charges stemming from the SEN
ate crime investigation. The
sentence was to pay a $3.50 fine.
The majority opinion was writ
ten by Judge WILDER K. Miller
and concurred in by Judges
Bennett Champ Clark and David
L. Bazelon. Attorney William H.
Collins represented Bowers.

D. {. Jail Population
Reaches Record 1,152

District jail is crowded with
prisoners waiting trial and serv-
ing sentences, Donald Glenn
mer. director Of the Department
Of Corrections. reported today.
Monday night the jail had the
largest number of prisoners in
It's history and there were not
enough beds to accommodate
them. Many Of the prisoners
were forced to sleep on mat
treSses on the floor. Yesterday
$50 prisoners were transferred
to the reformatory at Lorton and
the workhouSe at Occoquan.
The jail population Monday
night was 1852. The maximum
capacity Of the jail Is about
1000.
Mr.. Clemmer said the big in
crease was caused, by the police
campaign on dope users and
bootleGgers.
