Supreme Court
Again Rejects
Plea by 5Obe!!
BY HOWARD Z. DUTKIN

The Supreme Court today re.
fused to review the conviction
and 3O-year sentence imposed
on Morton Sobell. who wal
convicted In 1851 as q member
OF the Rosenberg atomic spy
ring.
Once before. in 1852. the high
court had rejected q plea by
Sobell for q review.
In the petition rejected today
Sobell had argued that the trial
Judge erred in allowing certain
questions to be asked Of one OF
Sobell's co-defendants. Mrs
Ethel Rosenberg. since executed
with her husband. Julius.
In questioning Mrs. Rosen-
berg. the prosecutor brought
out that she previously had In
voked the Fifth Amendment To
questions which she later an
swered. on trial. she had de-
MED the existence OF a con-
spiracy while before the grand
jury she had declined to answer
questions bearing on that issus
on the grounds Of self-incrim-
nation.
Credibility Attacked
The questions were designed
TO attack Mrs. Rosenberg's
credibility.
Since the woman's testimony
at the trial was favorable TO
Sobell, the latter argued he was
affected by any shadow on her
credibility.
Her Fifth Amendment plea,
it was contended, was COM
patible with innocence. Hence,
her invoking Of the amendment
should not have been allowed
in evidence in an attempt to
impeach her veracity, Sobell
argued.
The argument was based on
a Supreme Court decision re-
versing q ta3-evasion convic-
ton against Henry tT'he Dutch
mani Grunewald. In that case
the court found the trial judge
committed pfejudicial error in
permitting the prosecutor TO
