(U.R) Movie producer Walter Wagner, who served a jail sentence for shooting a friend of his actress wife, said last night that the United States penal system is a "jungle of human disgrace."

Without Rights "Everything possible is done to automatically convince him that, through the magic of the law, he is no longer a man with rights, but a law-breaker, con man, fraud, bum and he'd better keep his place if he knows what is good for him," hesaid. Wanger urged big businesses to help solve the country's penal problem. The producer served three months and nine tlays in jail in 1952. He had shot actors agent Jenning Lang in the groin as Lang sat and chatted in a parked car with Wanger's wife, actress Joan Bennett. GETS LATE START Pasadena, Calif. (U.R) Mrs. Phoebe F.

Authorities said the accident probably would have taken a much greater toll of injured had it occurred a few hours later when the trains would have been jammed with beach-bound New Yorkers. As it was 42 of the 44 persons aboard the two trains were hurt. Transit authorities blamed "human failure" for the acci dent which they said occurred when the motorman of one train ran through a red stop signal and rammed the other train head-on. It was the second crash of subway trains in New York in less than a month. Dead line Sunday Classified i at noon Saturday; 10 a.m. Monday for Monday: other days 5:30 oreviousday.
