Felons 'Steal
More Money9
GEARHART. Ore., Sept. i-UP)
The Oregon State Bar suggested
today that, with prices so high,
a felon should have to steal more
money than before. N
The bar convention recom
mended that a culprit be cons id
ered guilty of a felony only if
he has stolen at least $100 worth
of goods. A smaller theft or rob
bery would be petit larceny,
which carries a lighter sentence.
At present the division in Ore
gon between petit and grand lar
larceny based on the prices of

Judge Medina
Cites Lawyer
For Contempt
NEW YORK, Sept 15-U-Fed-eral
Judge Harold R. Medina an
grily slapped a contempt citation
Wednesday on George W. Crockett
jr, ! negro defense lawyer in the
communist conspiracy trial.
It was Medina's first crackdown
on a lawyer since the trial began
nearly eight months ago.
The judge has jailed five of the
11 .defendants for contempt and
has announced that action will be
taken against several defense at
torneys after the trial ends.
Medina imposed no penalty on
Crockett immediately but told
him: "You will be brought to jus
tice," Crockett who comes from Det
roit incurred the judge's wrath
by interrupting while Medina was
reading aloud from a birth certi
ficate., "In view of your honor's seem
ingly unintentional reading " was
all the lawyer got to say.
Medina's ruddy face paled. He
called the statement one of the
most contemptuous he had ever
heard in a courtroom.
"I now adjudge you in contempt
for that" he said.
The birth certificate was one is
sued in Los Angeles .after thai
birth of a daughter to the wife
of Michigan Communist Chairman
Carl Winter. Winter is a defend
ant and was undergoing cross-examination.
Winter himself was
ordered Jailed for contempt two
days ago. The court was trying to
learn if he had used aliases.
