ocratS.
No votes were taken yesterday
on the censure resolution intro
duced by Senator Flanders. Re-
publican. of Vermont. The de-
bate headed for a possible show
down tomorrow.
New life was injected in the
censure move by Senator Full
bright, Democrat, of Arkansas.
who presented six specific
charges against Senator McCar-
thy and urged that they be
adopted as amendments to the
Flanders resolution.
Charges "Shakedown."
The Fulbright proposal, de-
signed specifically to meet COM
plants that the censure resolu-
ton was vague" and lacked
charges on which the Senate
properly could act. led OF with
an allegation that Senator Nc
Carthy was guilty of a $4,000
"shakedown" of a housing COR
poration in 1948.
Senator Fulbright said he
wanted the first vote on his
amendments to be on the
"shakedown" charge.
Two other Senators joined
Senator F'ulbright in favoring
censure Of Senator Mccarthy in
formal speeches during the day.
They were Senator Lehman,
Democrat, of New York. and
Senator Cooper, Republican. Of
Kentucky. One Senator spoke
formally against the Flanders
resolution - S senator Daniel,
Democrat, Of Texas.
Half a dozen Republicans,
through remarks made during
the debate, indicated they would
side with Republican Leader
Knowland and vote against
censure. Two other Republicans
said outright they opposed it.
They were Senator Martin of
Pennsylvania and Senator Hick-
enlooper of Iowa. Senator Duff.
Republican, Of Pennsylvania,
came out for censure.
Substitutes Suggested.
Two substitutes to side-track
censure, at least in this session,
were offered but not called UP
Immediately for action. These
were proposed by Senator Smith.
Republican. of New Jersey, and
Senator Bush, Republican. OF
Connecticut.
The debate today on the whole
was conducted in a calmer atmo-
sphere than during the first
session on the Mccarthy issue
Friday. Senator Mccarthy spoke
for the first time on the move
to condemn him. He left the
Senate chamber in mid-after-
noon several hours before adj
journment. The galleries were
packed all day.
Mcclellan Back in Town.
Senator Mcclellan, Democrat,
of Arkansas, whom some Sena-
tors were expecting to play q
key role in the fight over Nc
Carthy, arrived here last night
from Arkansas, where he won
denomination this week.
Senator Mcclellan told re-
porters last night he had made
no commitments on what stand
he would take. He said he
wanted to see first what the
score is" because he's been out
of touch with the situation.
He added. however, that he
thought the censure motion
against Senator Mccarthy
should contain some specif1ca-
TONS so Senator Mccarthy
would have an opportunity to
defend himself against specific
charges.
Many Democrats are expected
to follow Senator McClellan's
lead in the censure showdown.

SECOND REVERSAL OF LOWER court
SOUGHT BY DRYMAN ATTORNEY

figure they cannot be expected to
examine and come to their conclusions
for nothing. Dryman based his plea
on insanity and has used records from
his U. S. Navy discharge which states
he was "insane." Private practicing
phychiatrists come high, and when the
state is using its top psychiatrists in
prosecuting surely the defense should
be allowed to employ psychiatrists to
examine and announce a decision.
McKeon said he would not argue
the Naval Records, but he insisted
that at the time of the crime Dryman
was sane and at the time of the con-
fession he was sane.
In rebuttal O'Connell read from
the transcript of the trial at Shelby
year ago, the testimony on how
the formal signed confession was
secured from Dryman in which the
states witness went into detail about
how he had Frank Dryman dream"
the details of the crime by telling
Dryman what had occurred and by
the power of suggestion got Dryman
to sign the confession which reads,
81 guess :" The witness said he
reconstructed the crime on the basis
of what he Figured" had happened.
In the conclusion of his appeal
O'Connell surprised the entire court
room by stating he had taken the case
convinced of Dryman's guilt, but that
in the course of his defense he was
convinced now that Dryman did not
commit the crime and was framed"

PRICE SUPPORT DEADLINE
is JANUARY 81

Chairman Howard Doggett of the
State Agricultural Sterilization and
Conservation committee this week re-
minded farmers that the time is grow
ing short during which they may Sc
cure price support on commodities
grown in 1858.
January 81 is the final date for
securing loans and purchase agree
ments, but he advised farmers not
to wait until that last day to request
support. The mechanics of making
support available, particularly in the
case of farm-stored commodities of
fered for loan, require some time.
Therefore it is suggested that pro-
ducers who plan to get loans on farm
stored grain make their applications
not later than January Is. This will
allow the committee and office per-
sonnet time necessary to inspect the
collateral and complete papers.
Although inspections are not re-
quired on warehouse-stored commodi-
ties or on commodities offered for
purchase agreement, it does take some
time to complete the papers and
producers, therefore, should request
support as far possible in advance of
the January 81 deadline.

The likeable young attorney stated
he was handing in his resignation
because he was not able to "act as
think l legally and logically should, .
and because 81 will not allow myself
to become a party to (action) by the
ajority (of the Board Of RR Com
missioners) as it is my opinion it is
violative of both principle and the
law"
To understand the actions of John
H. Risken we must go back approx
mately three years to the time when
the Board of Railroad Commissioners
was composed of Paul Smith, Austin
Middleton and Leonard Young.
At that time an E. L. Jones after
sub-contracting trucking services for
H. F. Johnson, Inc, for a period of
time believed that business in the
area he was working merited his
own application for a certificate of
necessity which would grant him an
MIRO license. He applied and the GER
tificate was granted on the basis of
evidence produced by the votes of
Jung anu OLIlICn Will AIlUuI0COH OIS-
senting.
H. F. Johnson, Inc, contested the
action of the Board of RR Commits
sioners by court action and the case
has finally reached the Supreme
Court after several years of litiga-
ton.
Court action required that the At
torney for the Commission defend
the action of the Commission when it
granted the certificate to Mr.. Jones.
The Commission was the defendant
in the case.
In the meantime, while this case
was going through the courts the
members of the commission changed.
Paul Smith was defeated and Jack
Henry was elected. Leonard Young
and Middleton were on the board at
the time the certicifate was granted.
Young had voted for the granting of
the certificate-Austin Middleton had
voted against granting it.

In addition to the action taken by
Local 1853, Byers also read to his

to Senator LANCER by Carl Bech-
told, Casper, Wyo., International Rep
resentative for IBEW, 9Th District,
which stated:

In addition Local Union 768 is OPP
posed to turning over to the private
power interests the generating and
transmission facilities of Bonneville
and the electric co-operatives, Byers
continued. However, the local is Gin

pose dams for the full development
of the Columbia and Missouri river
basins. This will bring new industries
to this great state of Montana and
to the Flathead valley. This will mean
year-around employment for many
people, which will benefit everyone. "
To implement Local 1855 stand in
support of public power, the IBEW
representative told his REA audience
that identical kilograms on the mat
ter had been sent to both Montana
senators Murray and Mansfield and
Congressman Metcalf, and to Chair
man LANCER of the Senate commit
tee investigating the now power policy
and it's probable effects on low cost
power distribution. Murray, Mans
field and Metcalf have since advised
the local union that they are doing
their best to "block the Administra-
tons new power marketing criteria,'"
and that they are Gin full accord"
with the views of the union as ex-
pressed in the unions kilograms,
which said:
Local No. 768 of the Interna-
tional Brotherhood of Electrical
Workers requests your considera-
ton and support in defeating the
present plans of the Interior De-
partment to set up a new power
marketing standard in the Missouri
basin which will no doubt follow
to other areas. This new policy
would effectively kill further de-
velopment of power through coop
eratives and other public agencies.
Amy such drastic policy changes
should come before the congress
with sufficient time for considera-

cancels the preference and re-
capture clauses as clearly set forth
through the past years. Abundant !

Frank K. Dryman, sentenced twice
to hang by district court Judge r.
M. Hattersley, has again asked the
Supreme Court to reverse certain ac-
tions Of the district court.
Drymans attorney Jerry J. O'Con-
nell in appealing to the Supreme
court, cited % specifications of error
during the trial year ago in Shelby.
In arguing the specifications be-
fore the Justices this week O'Connell
said the district court erred when
Dryman was not granted change of
venue, when the state wouldn't furn-
ish funds for the defense to secure
witnesses; that the confession is val
ueless; that the court erred in its
instructions when it directed the jury
it could find Dryman guilty of the
alleged crime in the preparation of
a felony, to-wit, robbery, when no
such charge was contained in the in
formation.
Arguing for the State of Montana,
Luke McKeon, special assistant at
torney general, assisted by former
state senator L. P. Donovan, Toole
county's appointed prosecutor, de-
MED the points presented by Dry
mans attorney.
When O'Connell insisted that
force and violence made the con-
fession illegal, McKeon said the ere
gretable" force and violence was not
related to the confession, because it
occurred several days before the con-
fession was obtained. O'Connell in
sisted that it made no difference if
the violence took place on Monday
and the confession took place on Fri
day; that the state and federal con-
stitution did not specify that you
could use violence on Monday but
not on Friday.
O'Connell told the Supreme Court
that he obtained his expert witnesses
with only time to ask them their
diagnosis and no time to prepare or
discuss testimony with them. He not
ed that the defendant had not had fl
nances to "employ" doctors to ex-
anime him, and the state was able
to use doctors already in their employ
already being paid for their SER
who merely had to be
asked to examine the defendant
tors who were alreay on the payroll
McKeon countered with the fact
that the point was 'the defendant
had secured witnesses"
O'Connell pointed out that the
court ruling on this matter would be
not only because of the
in this case but for the
future when the great resources of
a state might be pitted against a
penniless pauperized citizen leaving
him with no defenses.
That witnesses were secured
through the efforts of interested peo-
pie, and the fact that O'Connell has
worked for over two years without
compensation and at considerable ex-
oense to himself does not obviate the
duty of the state to see every man

With the case of H. F. Johnson,
Inc, ct al Board of Railroad Com
missioners, ct al, pending in the Su-
preme Court, two members of the
BOARD, John E. Henry and Austin Mid
dleton held a meeting at Henrys
home Dec. % and decided, as a ma
iority of the Board, that their At
torney John Risken should withdraw
from the case and so directed him.
Mr.. Risken as attorney for the RR
Commission, is also an assistant at
torney general. When the Attorney
Generals office was notified of the
action of the board they informed Mr..
Risken that Olsen was also a defend
ant in the action, along with E. L.
Jones, Inc, and the RR and Public
Service Commission and that the ac-
ton of the two members of the Board
of Railroad Commissioners was a
nullity, as they had nothing before
them to consider when they made the
decision to withdraw from a case be-
fore the Supreme Court in which
they were the defendants. Mr.. Risken
was directed by the Attorney Gen.
eral to continue in the case as as
sistant attorney general until it's

Said Risken in his resignation, at

is correct"
Action of the majority of the
Board without comforting with Leo
nard Young who when given an OPP
portunity to vote has stood firm his
ground that the case should proceed
has caused a climactic aggravation
among members of the commission.

time. will not allow myself to be-
come a party to this action by the
majority, as it is my opinion it is
violative of both principle and the
