Reporters found a great
change had come over the
forceful giant from the coal
pits.
He had lost almost 20 pounds
in weight. He looked a shadow
of his old tough self.
1t was as a trade union leader
and later member of Parlia-

ical life shook his enemies
and often many of his friends,
A moon-faced man with a

long hands made effective ges-

Once in reply to a Churchill
statement that the Socialist
government was leading to a
nation of undernourished, IA

On another occasion, after
being assailed by a normally
placid Conservative, he re-
marked:
Weak men shouldn't use
strong adjectives."
Another time in the House
of Commons he referred to
Lady Astor as an "old gasbag."
He Loved a Fight
No one in Britain was neutral
about the square-rigged Welsh
man who loved a fight. Some
followed him with blind devo-
ton. others regarded him with
horror.
Once a -blooded Tory
walked up behind him at the
door of a famous club in Lon
don, kicked him solidly, and
went on his way. Mr.. Bevan,
though be often displayed a
temper, was said to have be-
haved with considerable dignity
and restraint.
The fiery Laborite was the
kind of man who was constant

Bevan once gave this exlana-
ton for that behavior:
ut is awfully hard to or
ganize a respectable revolution.

The examiner would never
consent to wear formal dress,
be it to meet a king or attend

in addition, is being held on
an FBI charge of unlawful

the murder of Mrs. Margaret v.

Fort Meade, on June 26, 1857
Ms. Harold was shot in the
head as she sat in parked Car
less than a mile from the spot
where Mrs. Jackson's body was
found.
1t was in the home of the
senior Rees' that FBI agents
found a .38 caliber pistol such
as was used in the Jackson
and Harold killings plus a
handwritten account of the last
hours of Mildred Jackson. The
FBI contends the document is
in Rees' handwriting.
Hopes to Prove Alibi
Mr.. Green said he hopes to
prove Rees was working in a
Washington restaurant orches-
ira on the night the Jackson
family was abducted.
"As best we can," Mr.. Green
said. I'VE place him actually
in Washington on the night of
the slayings. However, we are
trying to pin things down be-
fore making any positive state
ment.
Robert Engle, manager of
Harrigan's estaurant, 729
Ninth street S.W., said Rees
apparently played there on
some Sundays during January,
1859, but he could not pin
point the Sundays because no
records were kept. The FBI
says Rees was regularly en-
ployed in a music store during
the period.
Mr.. Green said he expects to
be in a better position to chart
Rees' defense once the musician
is brought to Maryland and ar
raigned. After arraignment, he
expects to be allowed to inspect
evidence accumulated by the
FBI. He said he would confer

Attorney Leon H. Pierson on
