Judge Medina Reminisces About Trial Of Top Commies on Eve of Retirement By DOC QUIGG United Press Correspondent New York -MIP) Day after tomorrow marks the retire ment date for Federal Judge Harold R. Medina, who in a reminiscent mood recently remarked: "W hat got me through that trial was pray er." . No one needed to ask what he meant by "that trial." It was Judge Medina s first criminal case since President Truman had appointed him to the federal bench a year and half earlier. It began in Jan- Foreign Press Picks Motion Pictures Leading Hollywood HP) British actor Alec Guinness and "The Bridge on the River Kwai," took top honors Wednesday night at the Hollywood For eign Press Association's "Golden Globe" presenta tions. - The versatile Guinness was named best dramatic actor of the year for his performance in "Bridge," chosen best pic ture of the year by the press corps. David Lean received the best director award for his work in the award-winning "Bridge," produced by Sam Spiegel of Horizon Pictures and released through Colum bia. Joanne Woodward was hon? ored as the best dramatic ac tress of the year for her per formance in the Twentieth Century Fox "Three Faces Of Eve." Kay Kendall Chosen "Les Girls," produced by Sol C. Siegal, was selected as the best musical of the year, and Kay Kendall was chosen to receive the award for the best performance by an ac tress in a musical for her work in it. Frank Sinatra walked off with the best performance by an actor in a musical for "Pal Joey." Awards for the best sup porting roles went to Red Buttons, "Sayonara ," and Else Lanchester, "Witness for the 'Prosecution. 'Tony Curtis and Doris Day were selected for "Henrietta" awards, given annually by the press corps to world film fa vorites as determined by an international poll. i Epps Urges Good Qualifications Portland State chairman of the Democratic party, Dave Epps, this week urged county chairmen and vice chairmen take immediate action to in- s u r e qualified uemocratic candidates for state and coun ty offices.; He further urged prospec tive ' candidates to take the initiative in contacting Demo cratic county chairmen. 'I am disturbed by our failure to make an all out ef fort in filling the Democratic ticket throughout the state," Epps said. "Nothing we can do for the cause of good gov-! ernment is more important than giving voters first class Democratic candidates." County chairmen, he claimed, had a responsibility for persuading outstanding Democrats to file. Deadline L for filing is March 7.

', 1 It was one of the longest and most important criminal trials in American history. And it certainly was one, of the odd balls of all trials. As a report er associated with long sieges of it, I don't mind refreshing your memory. The defense declared at the start that the trial was a frame-up, motivated by "the great white' father in Wash ington" H. S. Truman, who, they claimed, deliberately created a climate of opinion against them. Stalling and Worse Only 15 days after the trial began, .the judge accused the Communist attorneys of con certed stalling.

Nusbaum, manager of the Medford office of the So cial Security administration, spoke to the Medford Lions club at its regular meeting Tuesday, Feb. 25. Nusbaum discussed the ef fect the 1956 amendments to the social security law have had on the old-age and sur vivors ., insurance program, both nationally and locally, with particular emphasis on the amendments providing for disability insurance pay ments, lowering of the age re quirement for women to 62, coverage of various profes sional groups and changes in the status of various farm owners and operators. V He pointed out that during 1957 the Medford office for warded 1,878 applications for retirement and survivors benefits and 304 applications for disability benefits. "" ' President Louie Ruhl pre sided . and Eston Humphrey was program chairman. over, he accused them of try ing to break his health; Winter turned to spring and spring to summer. The words flowed on. I have a mental picture of the judge, sitting there, his sad face (with the Adolphe Menjou mustache) cupped in his hands heaving a sigh now and, then: ."I tell you to desist and you keep right on; I warn you now, there is a day of reckoning coming." Often his brow clouded and his face reddened but his voice kept soft. He almost seemed to wear a halo of commanding initials, NRE no"; reversible erron Ordinari ly , a f un-lovmg, gregarious man, he turned himself into a hermit, determined the trial would' not wear him down. He went ou onto on week ends, and then only with his wife, to dinner. He saved all his energy for the courtroom. No Ten Talker V The six defense attorneys kept the words streaming, and the Judge was no terse talker himself. Once when he was explaining he didn't quite know what path Attorney Richard Gladstein, of San Franciscoi was leading into, Gladstein shouted: "J u d g e, I'm trying to lead you into "the paths of righteousness! Not all the wordage was in side. Often out in Foley Square some 400 faithful marched around, chanting loud respects to Medina and, among others, the Attorney General. ("Tom Clark, listen to me you can't jail democ racy!"). -...'' The end came in mid-Octo ber. The 11 leaders were led away after being found guilty of conspiring to organize a party of persons who advocate violent overthrow of the gov ernment. "Now," said the Judge in a deadly voice, "for some un finished business." He held the defense lawyers in con tempt and sentenced them to terms of four to six months all except McCabe. He got only 30 days: Never underesti mate the power of poetry. WeightSr pleasures Week To Be Observed Salem Here's one week, weights and measures, that won't get any extra observ ance in Oregon because the state's inspectors will be too busy making their routine ftp spections "of weights and measures. The first annual na tional Weights and Measures week has been set from March 2-8. The state department of. agriculture's nine full-time in spectors checked for accuracy 15,041 scales, 13,360 fuel oil meters and 25,620 food pack ages in 1957. They were as sisted by 10 fieldmen who combine weights and meas ures work with other inspec tion duties. Department trucks traveled 105,000 miles, making the tests. 59 Many children and odcfo.
