Gladden May
Face Contempt
PORTLAND I Clarence T.
Gladden, warden 'of the Oregon
oiaie rrison, may De cited for con
tempt of court, Circuit Judge
frame j. ixmergan indicated Tues
day. Gladden was ordered to appear
in court Tuesday to explain why
ne naa not permuted a convict to
testify in a criminal case. The con
vict, Phillip Wallace, had been
subpoenaed as a defense witness
for George LeDuke, accused of a
Portland jewelry store robbery.
Gladden, on the advice of the at
torney general, refused to permit
the convict to be brought to Port
land from the state prison at Sa
lem. A spokesman for the attorney
general's office said that persons
convicted of a felony could not be
released from prison as witnesses.
Lonergan said that many times
in the past convict witnesses had
appeared before him. "I think this
question should be tested out. It
should be passed on by the Su
preme Court," the judge said.
The case will be resumed Thursday.
Unfrocking
Edict Upheld
DETROIT (ffl A special judici
ary commission's unfrocking of the
ev. Claude C. Williams on

Williams, now a resident of Hel
ena, Ala., was wartime industrial
chaplain in Detroit. He said he
will appeal the order to the
church's "highest courts." He can
appeal to the Synod of Michigan
and thence to the church's general
assembly.
Williams was found to have held
doctrinal views "contrary to the
holy Scripture and creed of the
church.
Veto Loom ; for
German Army
PARIS Ul The National As-
sembly'i foreign affairs committee
asked the government Wednesday
veto uerman constitutional
amendments which might permit
reoirtn or an independent Ger
man army. The three Western
commissioners in Germany
must approve the measures before
icy can become law.
The amendments adonted re
cently by the Bundestag, the lower
house of the West German parlia
ment were designed to clear
away constitutional barriers to
West German membership in the
projected European Defense Com
munity. The constitution at present
specifically forbids rearmament.
trench critics complain, howov
', that the amendments as writ
n would not preclude some sort
of Independent rearmament if the
tlx. plan lor a six-nation, one-
uniform army including German
troops should fail to be accepted.
