.'Un-American

BUTTE, Mont, April IA Up.
Federal Judge William D..
Murray yesterday criticized FBI
Director j. Edgar Hoover for
what he called "un-American
tactics" and for apparently at
tempting to try out of court" the
case of John c. Hellman, ar
rested on a charge of violating
the Smith Act.
FBI headquarters in Washing
ton said there would be no COM
ment from Mr. Hoover on the
judges criticism.
Holman, "a, was arrested
April S after being indicted by a
Federal Grand Jury in Great
Falls. The Smith Act makes it
unlawful to be member of the
Communist Party, knowing its
aims to be overthrow by force of
the United States Government.
Mr.. Hoover was quoted in a
Washington dispatch as saying
Hellman has travelled in many
communities in Montana and
Idaho in carrying out his duties
as a Communist Party organizer.
He also was quoted as saying
Holman also has written articles
and given speeches in support of
the Communist cause.
Judge Murray said in his
United States District Court:
.. Such statements by the
Idirector are not in accord
with the American principle Of
trial in a court and I condemn
in the strongest terms the issu-
ance of statements by police Of
ficials or investigating officers

case. presenting them to the
public in an effort, apparently.
to try the case outside of court.

Accurate Airline
Schedules Ordered
BY the Associated Press

The Civil Aeronautics Board

the beam as to flying time and
tell the public how long it really
takes to get from here to there
Specifically it directed the car

A line which does that. the board

still under the jurisdiction of the Army.
and it took no less than % applications
to receive permission to marry the girl
of his choice. Seeing that KatZ was as
persistent as he was ardent. the Army
finally granted his request, and he and
Kazue were married April 26, 1916, in

Kazue had been educated.
Until 1913, the Katzes lived in Japan.

HNHE POSTWAR occupation of Japan
il saw a surprising turnabout when
United States soldiers who had con-
quered the Japanese Army were in turn
conquered wholesale by japanese girls.
many of whom married American
servicemen. Though critics of these
matches called them 'occu-pasSions'
and foresaw Madame Butterfly endings,
not only did GI-Japanese marriages
increase as the occupation wore on.
but the vast majority have proved
eminently successful.
This year marks the 10th anniversary
of the first such postwar marriage. one
which is still going as strong in San
Francisco as when the principals
marched down the aisle in Tokyo. In
September. l945. only two weeks after
Sergt. Fred Katz Of Philadelphia had
been stationed in Tokyo. he met petite

wife had died just before he went over
seas. soon decided that he and the
26-year Japanese girl would make
fine pair. Kazue agreed. and so did
her parents, but their application for
permission to marry was turned down
by the Army brass.
Early in 1916. Fred was discharged
from the Army. but instead of going
