L--. Justice ToAi WASHINGTON tf) The Justice Department denied Wednesday! a statement by U. S. District Judge Willis W. Ritter that it had refused to assist in an investigation of jury tampering by Denver gamblers. Judge Ritter's statement ! has been cited by Clayton Fritchey. deputy chairman of the National Democratic Committee, as i evi dence that there is "a serious sit uation within the Justice, Depart menf . 1 j . Fritchey charged in a television appearance last Sunday night that one of the reasons" why Atty.-Gen. Brownell launched the controver sial Harry Dexter White spy case was to divert attention from j the justice Department situation. V"j A statement issued by , Asst. Atty.-Gen. Warren Olney in Wed nesday made no reference! ;to Judge Ritter's remarks but men tioned "political discussion" I jon the radio and television in which it had been asserted the Denver case "had been in some way mis- Department Denies Refusing ring Investiga tion 4 dJuryTampe 11 Directs Plane Spotters ACORNS FROM THE WITH DEL SW.NI vj It- handled by the Department of Jus tice." . v. Denies Claim "There is no substance . to this assertion," Olriey said. Fritchey said in a new state ment Wednesday night: , "At first glance, Mr. Olney's explanation is certainly- difficult to follow and does not seem re sponsive to the charges of Judge Ritter and Mr. Vigil." (Charles Vigil, ' former U. - S. attorney at Denver, was ousted by Brownell recently)."' , - "Sen. "Langer, chairman ' of the Senate Judiciary Committee, has said he will hold hearings in Den ver next week, and I am sure all aspects of the case probably will be clarified at that time at least I hope so."' Brownell Not on Case Olney explained that he was is suing the statement because the Denver case was handled by the Criminal Division of the Justice Department, which he heads.

You waste readership. Brownell did not handle the case in person, Olney added.. Nineteen FBI agents, Olney said, worked on the case which resulted in the conviction of ; Eugene and Clyde Smaldone on charges of bribery and obstruction of justice. One phase of the case began last Sept. 17 with a tip that an at tempt had been made to bribe "a prospective juror and ended Sept. 24 with the arrest of all those in volved.'

Nixon Trade Ideas on World Affairs urcMrr tyet t i n t-: iicjn utuLiai, muia uri i nine ,f Minister Nehru had a two-hour talk on world affairs Wednesday night with Vice President Richard Nixon. Authoritative sources said the Indian leader gave Nixon little rea son to expect any closer Indian American political alignment. The prime minister outlined his position in favor of recognizing Communist China as a dominant Asiatic power, the sources said, and expressed belief the United States policy of containment is be- , w ing carried too far around Rus- j g sia. U These views already have brought sharp criticism of Nehru by Sen. William Knowland R- t g Calif), the Senate Republican lead- g er, and other influential Ameri- j & cans. 2 Nixon himself said the talk with , Nehru gave him "a much more j g rounded and objective picture" of : ik the prime minister's viewpoints, j ft They met alone over a bowl of j S cashew nuts and tangerine juice , g in, a private room of Nehru's lux-; urious residence. . While declining to reveal de tails, Nixon said the conversation was "completely friendly, cordial and frank." with Nehru doing most of the talking. They emerged smil ing and joking. The touring American official later had dinner with -Nehru and other top Indian leaders. Mexico iActor Near Death HOLLYWOOD UFl Mexican singer and actor Jorge Negrete is "near death," one of his doctors said Wednesday. The physician, who asked that his name not be mentioned, estimated that the Lain star has 43 "jits to live. Negrete, 41, entered Cedars of I, jaro i Hosoital Nov. 23. The doc tor said he is , suffering from cir- f the liver, secondary to an lmectious hepatitis. this phase of the jury tampering charge originated with the Federal Bureau of Investigation, indict rrients were returned on the. basis of the investigation and testimony of the Federal Bureau of Investi gation, and all defendants have been convicted of all charges so far brought to trial." Olney said. In sentencing the Smaldone brothers Nov. 23, Judge Ritter said: . "I don't understand why the De partment of Justice, which is charged with law enforcement. should refuse to assist in the in vestigation of jury tampering in the Smaldone cases but they did. . "Only through the efforts of the Treasury Department and the use of their agents was the investiga tion carried on to a successful! coidusion." LIFEGUARD TO THa RESCUE SAN DIEGO, Calif.
