Mrs. Knowles
Is Fined $500,
Gets 10 Days

Federal Judge Ross Ridley to-
day sentenced Librarian Mary
Knowles of Plymouth Meeting
Pa, to serve 100 days in jail and
pay a $500 fine for contempt of
Congress.
The judge turned down a plea
Of Mrs. Knowles attorney, Henry
w. Sawyer. III. for probation for
Mrs. Knowles. He permitted her
to remain free under $500 bond
pending appeal.
Mrs. Knowles, 46. was con-
victed last week by Judge Ridley
in a trial without a jury, of I'M
lawfully refusing to answer a
total of So questions before the
Senate Internal Security Sub
committee during appearances
before it on July 90 and Septem-
Der Is, 1855. One of the ques-
tons was whether she had ever
been member of the Com
muniSt Party.
Problem Cited
Before sentencing Mrs.
Knowles, the judge declared:
I'VE have had serious problem
in this country with Communist
infiltration and subversive ac-
tivities." He added this coun-
try has to maintain a huge mill
tary force because of the Com
muniSt threat.
Since October, 1853, Mrs.
Knowles has been employed as
librarian of the Quaker-oper-
ated William Jeanes Memorial
Library at Plymouth Meeting.
Her employment there was after
she had been fired as a branch
librarian at Norwood, Mass, be-
cause she had invoked her Fifth
Amendment privilege against
poSseible standardization in
refusing to testify before the
Internal Security Subcommittee
earlier that year.
Committee Challenged
Recalled by the subcommittee
in 1855. Mrs. Knowles did not
again invoke the Fifth Amend
ment. Instead, she challenged
the subcommittee authority to
inquire Into ones thoughts and
affiliations" citing the First
free speech) Amendment. Mrs
Knowles testified before the Sen
ate committee that she had told
the Plymouth Meeting Library
Committee that "for many years
now l have had no connections,
formal or any other way, with
any organization that would be
either on the Attorney Generals
list or would be So-called sub
verSive organization or left-wing
organization"
In convicting Mrs. Knowles
last week, Judge Ridley said the
subcommittee, when it called
Mrs. knowles in 1855. pos
sesSed information" that she had
been an active member of the
Communist Party in Boston as
late as 1913.

Excluded from exemption were
approximately three and a half
acres at the northern end of the

area has been graded and seeded
and fenced in it should retain
