Presidents committee, / have
found little if any evidence OF
lNAVEC actually placing any sig
lniflcant number of veterans.
Where NAVEC has made
placements, to my personal
knowledge and experience, its
work has been a duplication oi
services furnished free by Gov
ernment agencies.
In view of the continuing
solicitation Of funds in the name
of jobs for veterans and the
possibility Of confusing it with
the activities of the Presidents
Committee. 1 shall urge the new
Congress to make a complete
investigation of fund-raising by
anybody in the name of handi

The Presidents Committee has

There is no need, in oul
opinion. to raise funds for the

more employers willing to oper

Monroe Case
indictment Void
By HOWARD DUTKIN

Federal Judge Joseph c. Nc
Garraghy yesterday dismissed a
second indictment accusing for
mer Police Chief Captain John
B. Monroe of conspiracy and
bribery in a numbers pay-off
protection scheme.
Judge McGarraghy held that
to try Monroe on the charges
would place him in double jeop-
ardy since he is already serving
times on identical charges under
which he was convicted several
months ago.
The judge held in essence that
there was but one continuing
conspiracy and that the bribery
charges all stemmed from the
same conspiracy.
Myron G. Ehrlich and Joseph
Sitnick, defense attorneys, saw
the ruling as having a prob
ably fatal effect on three addi-
Itional conspiracy and bribery
indictments under which Mon
roe is facing trial.
IF other judges follow Judge
Met cGarraghy's reasoning, and
presume they will, all the re-
naming indictments against
Monroe will be dismissed" Mr.
Ehrlich said.
Mr.. Ehrlich declared he would
file similar motions to dismiss
in behalf of George Prather
former precinct detective, who
also had been convicted of con-
spiracy at the same time al
Monroe. Prather, who jumped
bond, is still at large, although
he is facing trials along with
Monroe and group of gam
blers on the additional con-
spiracy-bribery accusations.
Yesterdays dismissal affected
Monroe alone. Two co-defend-
ants. in the current indictment
are Othello Washington and 10.
seph Chase. both Negroes anC
reputed gamblers. Since they
had not previously been tried
as was Monroe. the double jeop-
ardy ruling did not apply to then
and they are slated for tria
