Oct. 11. (AP) The dangers of political Influence and corruption the Rockefeller liquor study said today are much less under a state alcohol author ity than under a license system. "politics and corruption enter ed the license system," the survey pointed out, primarily because liquor dealers attempted to main tain and expand their sales.' . . . "Licensed liquor dealers, driven on by the struggle for existence, endeavored to manipulate votes through, every means, legitimate fcnd otherwise. Corruption was al most Inevitable. The license ays ienv turned. loose a large number of individuals, each the center of a continuous endeavor, open and secret to protect and extend his business. This was especially twe in regions Where the pressure . to establish dry areas by local op tion was strong."

A greater shortage may.be revealed when state auditors, summoned by William Elaxig, secretary of the board, to check the records, make their report..' Maizels appeared without Coun sel and waived a preliminary hearing and grand Jury Indict ment. District Attorney Trindle asked that the Judge suspend sen tence until the auditors could re port. The court granted the re quest and released Maizels on his own recognizance, subject to his leporting daily to Trindle, Maiz els' father, in the courtroom, ot tered his dwelling and a garage building in West Salem as a bond that Maizels would appear when time came for his sentence. The court said he released Maizels so he could assist auditors In their check. Mr. Trindle said Maizels would probably ask for a bench parole when he appeared for sentence. The youth's wife, whom he mar ried September 10 of this year in Portland, was in the courtroom. Tears came to her eyes as her. hus band, a slight, dark, boyish ap pearing chap, made his plea. Mrs. Maizels is blond and pretty. She was attractively dressed. Maizels is dark. He appeared tired and somewhat distraught while in the courtroom. i Knowledge of Maizels' pecula tions came.to Einzig last week end, the secretary of the board of control said.

And she held up a pair of bloomers that looked like the main's of a whaler. - f Don't fear for the morals of Manhattan," continued Sally. "They are not being endangered by my dance. My dance is not in decent. It's art!" The commissioner previously had said Sally's act was "repul sive to c o m m on decency" and "Immediately dangerous to pub lie morals" and a heap more. Sally has bad trouble with her illusions and fans before. She got into .court In Chicago with her capers. And there she got a year's sentence, so she's dancing in New York pending appeal.

"The publication of these doc uments," .said the spokesman, ' coupled with Russian press com ment thereon, supports the belief that the soviet desires the worst in Russo-Japanese relations.

Roberts, attorney for Kathryn, who was on the stand nearly all day in a tearful fight for acquittal. Kelly himself had nothing upon which to base a hope for acquit tal, as his wife and own attorneys sought to shift the entire blame for the kidnaping upon him and others already convicted and sen tenced and pictured Kathryn as a participant through fear of her husband. Seven other persons have al ready been convicted and sen tenced. , 'The court would feel It had been cowardly and derelict in duty if it had not pointed out this con viction mat me aeieuuani jvsiur ryn was not wholly truthful, Jugde Vaught said. , At 5:45 p. m.

"This court will not hesitate to tell you that Kathryn Kelly's tes timony concerning her removal of the little girls from the Shannon farm near Paradise, Tex., the day Mr. Urschel was brought there, did not 'sound convincing'," said Judge Vaught. The Jurors leaned forward and listened more closely. "Her conduct at the Coleman farm near Stratford, Okla., not , only is a strong circumstantial point but is convincing to this court that Kathryn knew , about the kidnaping and knowingly par ticipated. Other testimony from this defendant is utterly convinc ing to this court that Kathryn Kelly had criminal knowledge ef the abduction conspiracy' Brief arguments ot Counsel were climaxed by the appeal of Herbert K.
