prediction was 4 per cent.
Around As per cent of the
responding merchants predicted
higher profits in the two quar-
tiers. IS per cent predicted lower
profits and 20 per cent forecast
no change.
Mr.. DakinS said rs per cent
expected average prices to
remain unchanged, 8 per cent
predicted decreases and II per
cent anticipated increases.
The survey showed the prob
lem areas considered of greatest
importance by the merchants
in the months ahead.
Number one on this list was
the reduction of operating ex-
penSeS, followed by a decided
uneasiness over the future Of
wage-hour legislation being
holly debated by the Senate.
These two were closely fol-
lowed by great concern over
store personnel problems, espe-
cially in the areas of recruiting
and employee efficiency. Other
problem areas cited were:
Sunday selling, restrictive Fed
eral and State legislation, rising
costs and the growth of dis
count operations.

Eorth's I'd Layer
Yields Samples
In Ocean Probe

OFF GUADALUPE ISLAND,
April 3 (AP).-Rock samples
identified as from the middle
layer of the earth's layer
crust have been brought from
$40 feet under the deep ocean
floor.
The achievement by the drill
ship CuSs I late Saturday was
hailed as a milestone in the
exploration Of the oceans.
Mohole Project Director Will
lard Bascomb identified the
samples as basaltic rock from
the long-sought second layer Of
the earth's crust. One was
about the size of a small can
of frozen fruit Juice. The other
was about 10 feet long.
This apparently is the upper
surface Of the so-called second
layer which long puzzled ocean,
ographers because its depth
corresponds to that predicted
by seismic surveys, Mr.. Bas-
comb said. Reaching and
sampling this layer was a major
scientific objective of the pres
ent tests"
The outer layer Of the earth's
crust is soft sediment. The
second mystified scientists be-
cause the speed Of earthquake
waves passing through it in
dicated it could be any Of three
different materials, one of
which is basalt.
The third layer is believed
composed Of still ll-harder rock.
1t may be beyond the reach of
the present drilling project.

embezzling $1,000 fom the sale
of a Cadillac belonging to the
Western Conference of Team
sters. He was sentenced to Is
years in Jail, but has been free
on bail. His conviction was af-
firmed by the Washington
State Supreme Court in a 4-4
opinion, with one judge dis
qualifying himself.
Beck asked for Supreme
Court review on the grounds
that at the time of the grand
jury proceedings that led to
his indictment he was the sub
ject of continuous, extensive
and intensively prejudicial pub
licity." He claimed that the
proceedings against him in
volved denial Of his right to
due process and equal protec-
ton OF the law. .s....
Hutcheson was convicted by
the late District Court Judge
James w. Morris, who tried the
case without jury here. The
conviction, on April II, 1860,
was based on charges that he
unlawfully refused to answer 18
questions posed by the Senate
Raekets Committee. He was
sentenced to serve six months
and fined $500.
In asking for the Supreme
Court review, Hutcheson's coun-
sci said this was the first case
where an investigative commit
tee of Congress confronted a
witness with a background
statement which set forth the
circumstances Of a pending
felony indictment. Hutcheson
had been called before the
Rackets Committee in June,
1958-four months after he
and two others were indicted
by an Indiana grand jury on
charges of bribing an Indiana
highway official.

Upon arrival at GroSvenor
Square, the marchers found no.
licemen, shoulder to shoulder
barring the entrance to the
Embassy. The marchers were
told they could use a street
on the opposite side of the
square.
The demonstrators mile d
around and a number of them
ram into the middle of the
street outside the Embassy and
sat down. The police picked
them up bodily and carried
them into waiting black marias
to a chorus of catcalls and
Kisses.

ures, as enunciated here, has
not to put it mildly-run
smooth" Justice Frankfurter
wrote. THE courts opinion in
this case is hardly calculated, I
regret to say. to contribute to
its clarification."
The opinions gave this review
Of a case that began when the
landlord made a Sunday call
on his new tenant to invite him
to church.
The landlord, when he came
to the house in a wooded area
near the Macon airport. noted
a strong "odor Of mash" about
the house. His knock went
unanswered and the shades
were pulled down so he couldn't
see in.
The landlord went home and
called local police. The Off
GERS, accompanying the land
lord to the house, also noticed
the smell. They found only the
bathroom window unlocked and
the landlord told them, If it's
what I think it is, what it
smells like, yes, you have my
permission to go in"
Distillery Found
One of the policemen was
boosted through the window
and into the house. There he
found a complete and sizable
distillery and 1900 gallons of
mash located in the living
room"
The policeman inside sent his
colleague to call Federal Off
GERS.
While the Federal agents
were en- route to the house the
tenant, Elmer Samuel Chap
man, drove up, unlocked the
front door and was immedi-
ately arrested by the local
policeman. The majority noted
that neither the State officers
nor the Federal agents, who

Other Cases Cited
Justice Whitaker said the
Government cited no Georgia
or other case holding that a
landlord, in the absence of an
expressed covenant so permit
ting, has a right forcibly to
enter leased premises without
the consent of the tenant. JUS
tice Whitaker cited oher Su-
preme Court cases which ruled
out searches without warrants
under other circumstances.
The Government had argued
that since the tenant bad used
the leased premises to make
whiskey, he had forfeited all
rights to the premises and that
the landlord had thus acquired
the right to enter to abate the
nuisance and that he could and
did delegate that right to the
police.
"But 1t is clear" Justice
Whitaker said, that before
the officers made forceful entry
the landlord did not know the
premises were being used fol
the manufacture of liquor, MOI
had he exercised his statutory
option to forfeit the tenancy fol
such a cause"
Justice Clark, in his dissent
said he could see ample reasor
for not getting a warrant ir
this case. He pointed out thai
1t was a Sunday afternoon and
as the Georgia officer testified
he had never got one on Sun
