Phone 242 'Trenton Six' Face New Trial Without Lawyers TRENTON, N. J. UP) Con victed once of murder, six Tren ton Negroes, known as "The Trenton Six" face a second trial without the services of three law yers who helped save them from the electric chair. Mercer County Judge Charles P. Hutchinson has ordered the attorneys off the case. The three hired by the left-wing Civil Rights Congress to defend the Negroes are former Assistant U. S. Attorney General O. John Rou ge, Executive Secretary William L. Patterson of the Congress and Emanuel H. Bloch, all of New York. In an eight-page order bar ring the trio from practicing in his court, Hutchinson said he could no longer endure their "studied discourtesy and con tempt for the court." He ac cused both the attorneys and the congress of unethical prac tices. Charging that the congress col lected from the public "moneys far In excess of those necessary" to finance the defense, he said: "This situation raises grave doubt as to the real purpose for which these funds were collect ed and. as far as I have been able to learn, there has been no accounting of the funds received or the moneys disbursed." He said he had heard reports that collected money was used by the congress for "defense of another case pending about the same time In another Jur isdiction." He did not name the other case. The judge accused Rogge, Pat terson and Bloch of violating the American Bar association's code of ethics. All of vour expressions have vehemently denounced the trial of these defendants as unfair, bi ased and prejudiced in varying terms running from a travesty of justice' through the gamut of 'an outrage,' 'a northern Scotts horo case' to a 'lynching,'" Hutchinson said. "You have de liberately distorted the facts with a view of stirring up unfavor able public opinion against this court. Hutchinson presided at the original trial In 1948 of the men whom the congress calls "The Trenton Six." After the Jury found the Negroes guilty of slaying 72-year-old William Horner, Trenton store-owner, the Judge sentenced all six to die In the electrlo chair. However, the state supreme court set aside the verdict and ordered a new trial. Rogge, Pat terson and Bloch were among the lawyers who successfully ar gued the appeal. civil Mights Congress officials and the three lawyers greeted news of Hutchinson s removel or der with promises to continue tnelr HEM lor the defendants. They said they did not know whether the removal order could be appealed, but would seek to do so. Logging company's desk drawers, but completely overlooked $400 in cash in another drawer.
