Group Asking
Communication
OF Sentences
Giles Brothers
Facing Death,
Towes Gets Appeu

A citizens committee hopes
to make a personal appeal to
Gov. Tawes next week for the
Communication Of death sentences
imposed on two Spencerville
MD brothers convicted OF
trapping q Hyattsville girl.
Petitions with more than
5000 signatures have been col
lected and are ready for de-
livery to the Governor, a COM
mittee spokesman said. A re-
quest for an appointment with
the Governor was made more
than a week ago.
The two brothers are sched-
uled to be executed during the
week Of July 8 for the rape
two years ago.
The execution order for
John G. Giles, %, and James
Nv. Giles, 81, was signed last
Friday by Montgomery County
Circuit Court Judge James H.
Pugh, who originally had inn
posed the death sentence in
December, 1861, after the boys
were found guilty in his court.
Face Gas Chamber
The execution order DEGREES
that they shall be put to death
in the gas chamber at the
Maryland Penitentiary in Bal
timore.
Announcement of the date
spurred a new appeal for Gov.
Tawes to grant executive Gle
mency and also for a stay of
execution to allow a review
of all such petitions.
The clemency plea came
from the Giles-Johnson De-
Tense Committee, a group of
citizens organized in July, 1862,
to provide legal support for
the two brothers and another
Montgomery County man, Jo-
seph E. johnson, %, who was
convicted in the same rape
case in a separate trial.
The committee, headed by
Mrs. Howard F. Ross of 319
Quaint Acres drive, Silver
Spring, claims that new evil
dence discovered after the trial
should be presented to the
courts.
The mother Of the Giles
boys had worked for Mrs. Ross
at the time of the trial.
Asks For Pleas
DR.. Lewis Maddocks, the
committees vice chairman,
said setting of such an early
date for execution makes II
imperative that all Maryland
residents who feel that these
young boys should not die let
the Governor hear from them
Immediately"
Hal Witt, an attorney for
the brothers, said he would
seek the stay Of execution to
permit a review Of the clemency
petitions.
Efforts to appeal the verdict
or get new trials for the two
brothers were unsuccessful all
the way to the United States
Supreme Court. The latter dis
missed their appeal in April
with a brief notation stating
simply that there was no SUBJ
Stantial question Of law in
volved under the United States
Constitution or Federal laws.
The Maryland Court of Ap-
peals also ruled that the Giles
were not entitled to a new
trial. The same court is still
considering an appeal BY
Johnson's attorneys for a re.
versal Of his conviction. He
was tried separately, in the
Anne Arundel County Circuit
Court. but also received the
death penalty.

THE President and the Com

the Commissioners will pass
such a law If Congress does

Mr.. Tobriner said the Com

said, to the delight of the
marchers.

Requiem For
American Industry?
BY Raymond c. Baker
American Way Features
Correspondent

1OlItSJOHUtllI
American industry is on tcntcr-
hooks awaiting an Administration
decision on foreign trade which
could cause much of the nations
productive capacity to dry up and
millions of jobs to withcr away.
A cotcrie of economists and free
traders arc now putting the finish
ing touches on a Presidential an
noun.cmcnt expected to call for
deep tariffs cuts on all items on
the dutable list Under the Trade
Expansion Act of 1862 the President
is authorized to slash duties as
much as so percent on foreign
goods entering this country in com
petition with American products.
The business community, well
aware of the Administrations view
point on foreign trade, holds little
hope that American industry will
receive sympathetic understanding
in negotiations scheduled for early
1864.
President Kennedy has stated
that one of his economic grand
concepts is to revise radically our
trade relationship with other ma
tions - even at the expense of
American free enterprise This is
an anomaly in view of his repeated
statements that the nations econo-
my is sluggish" and that there
is too much idle capacity"
Cites Common Aims
He recently admitted that "mem-
berS of the business community
play a vital role in maintaining
and building the strength of the
American economy in convert
ing its great potential into higher
standards of living and free world
leadership" and set forth as com
mon aims of government and in
duStry:
Getting our economy back to
maximum operation. speeding |
our rate of growth. improving |
