WASHINGTON. June 28-WP)
The Supreme Court Monday
tnrew out tne penury conviction
of Harold R. Christoffel, former
Milwaukee labor leader.
Christoffel was convicted In U.
S. District Court here on a charge
that he laiseiy loia tne nouse ua
bor Committee he had never
been a Communist or had any
Communist connections. He was
sentenced to two to six years.
The supreme tribunal ruled b-4
todav that the government In
such a prosecution must be able
to show positively tnat a quorum
of the House Committee was pres
ent when Christoffel allegedly
comm ted penury.
Justice Murphy delivered the
majority decision. He was joined
by Justices macK, ranKiuner,
Douglas and Rutledge.
Justice Jackson wrote a dissent,
joined by Chief Justice Vinson
and by Justices Reed and Burton.
Christoffel's anneal contended
a majority of the 25-member
House Committee was not pres
ent when he testified March 1,
1947. Therefore he insisted he
could not have committed perjury
within the meaning of District of
Columbia law.
Christoffel formerly was presi
dent of Local 218 of the CIO Unit
ed Automobile Workers at the Al-lis-Chalmers
Manufacturing Com
pany plant in Milwaukee.
He appealed to the high tribun
al after the U. S. Court of Appeals
here unanimously upheld his con
viction. He has been free under
$1,000 bail.
Negro Wins On Appeal
The court also set aside the con
viction of Robert A. Watts, In
dianapolis Negro sentenced to die
for the killing of Mary Lois Bur
ney, a while woman.
Justice Frankfurter delivered
the 6-3 decision. Chief Justice Vin
son and Justices Reed and Burton
dissented.
Watts was accused of killing
the woman in an attempted rape.
Attorneys for Watts appealed
on the ground that the indict
ment against him was returned
by a grand jury from which Ne
groes had been excluded. They al
so contended that asserted con
fessions were obtained from
Watts by State Police through
use of force and intimidation.
Bootlegger Seizure OK'd
In other actions Monday the
court:
Held 6-3 that federal agents
may stop and search an automo
bile driven into a dry state by a
man they know to be a bootleg
ger. The case Involved an Okla
homan who was arrested on a
trip from Joplin, Mo., into dry
Oklahoma. Officers found 12 cases
of whisky in the car, which they
stopped because it appeared to be
weighted down. They lacked a
warrant, but the tribunal ruled
this was not necessary in view of
the man's background. A dissent
ing opinion expressed fear that
"unfit and ruthless" officers mny
take advantage of the ruling to
push searches and seizures.
Upheld 7 0 a Securities Commis
sion finding that preferred stock
holders should receive more than
$100 a share in the liquidation of
Engineers Public Service Com
pany, a New York holding com
pany. The opinion overturned a
District Court ruling that $100 a
share was fair payment. More
than 390,000 shares of Engineers
Preferred is involved, with re
demption prices ranging from
$105 to S110 a share. SEC said
$23,260,000 in payments to stock
holders in five similar cases
hinged on the outcome of the de
cision. Elsler Case Kept Alive '
Agreed to keep or. ice the con
tempt of Congress appeal of bail
jumping Gerhart Eisler. The tri
bunal split 5-3, with Justice Bur
ton taking no part, in agreeing
to defer a decision in the case.
Eisler fled behind the Iron Cur
tain while the court was consider
ing his ajjpeal.
DeciSCcT against considering
Eisler's conviction on passport
fraud charges the case that fig
ured In this country's unsuccess
ful efforts to have him returned
from Britain, where he landed
aboard a Polish ship last month.
Decided to review the contempt
of Congress conviction of Eugene
Dennis, general secretary of the
Communist Party in the United
States, and one of the 11 top
American Communists now on
trial in New York on charges of
conspiring to overthrow the gov
ernment. The court denied a re
quest by Paul Robeson, the singer,
lhat he be permitted to file a
brief on behalf of Dennis.
