Assistant Secretary of State William Healy said CD chiefs were looking over possible quarters in the state finance office on Ferry Street just east of South 12th Street and also on the second story of the state police building on Last Mate street. Healy said the move would prob ably take place early next week. Meanwhile the 15-employe CD staff had evacuated their basement quarters for another section in the 25-year-old state office build ing. The hasty move was ordered Wednesday when it was discovered the ceiling was cracking. Pressure of heavy files in the state income tax division Ideated on the first floor directly above the CD office, was blamed for the sagging floor. , A survey of repair work neces sary is being made. Healy said Thursday and the nature and ex tent of repairs will probably be decided early next week. The of fice of William I.

' " It was expected that a food, grain and wool panel would be srranged for the Pendleton con ference and a fruit panel at Med ford.

Drops Grunewald Penury Case WASHINGTON, I Th&gqv eminent Thursday dropped a -ten-count perjury indictment against Henry (The Dutchman) Grvsje wald. once Washington's best known wire puller. Asst. U. S. Atty. William Hitz told TnHno liniM R Kirblanrl that "certain new evidence has been made available" to the government that "renders it inadvisable to go to trial on this particular indict ment."

Grunewald also is under indict ment in Baltimore for income tax evasion and in Brooklyn for per jury. He is at liberty under bonds totaling $40,000. The perjury indictment here grew out of Grunewald's testimony be fore house tax scandal investiga tors and before a federal grand jury.
