The committee is known as the special committee on convictions and -incarcerations of innocent persons. The dispute over its activities stemmed from a request of Got. Arthur B. Langlie of Washington that the committee investigate the background of the convictions of Utah and Tin-man Wilson. The brothers were convicted of the brutal kidnap-slaying of Jo Ann Dewey In March, 1950, and sentenced to death, but have been granted 90-day reprieve. j Gov. Langlie asked the commit tee to .study the case and advise him what action it would take if it were in his place. . . 1 Members of the committee in elude Harlan S. Don Carlos, Hart ford, Conn., Insurance company ; attorney, who is chairman; Erie Stanley Gardner, the mystery story writer; Cody Fowler, past president of the ABA; James V. Bennett, director of the federal bureau of prisons; and Henry Franklin, formerly of the FBI. Opposition to an investigation of the Wilson case led to the possi bility the question of whether the ' committee can continue its under - cover investigative operations may be placed before the lawyers' con vention next week. Among the leading opponents to the committee's work is Frank Holman of Seattle, a former presi dent of the ABA. Bobcats are known to live within 15 miles of Manhattan Island.
