Barring Barristers
Behind Bars Upheld
By Warden, Others
Salem - (DPD - Lewis Barnes, ,
assistant warden at Oregon
State Penitentiary yesterday
detailed replies to charges of
seven inmates who said their
constitutional rights were be
ing violated when they were
denied the right to unrestrict
ed legal study.
Barnes testified in the fed
eral district court trial of the
prisoners' suits.
Friday, Gov. Robert D.
Holmes, Secretary of State
Mark Hatfield and State
Treasurer Sig Unander de
nied on the witness stand that
they conspired with Barnes
and Warden Clarence T. Glad
den to deprive the inmates of
their federal civic rights.
Conspiracy Charged
The convicts charged the of
ficers with conspiracy and
claimed, that prison regula
tions restricting legal study
in the prison limited their ac
cess to the courts in attempts
to free themselves.
Hatfield said on the stand
that he believed the restric
tions imposed on inmates
were reasonable.
Gladden, a 23-year veteran
of the federal prison system
Deiore ms appointment as
warden of the Oregon prison,
said "this legal business in
prisons has been a bone of
contention for many years."
Gladden asserted that un
restricted legal study would
permit a small group to be
come legal advisors to the ma
jority of prisoners and exploit
them.
The warden also said he
has two notaries and typing
services for the convicts to
help them prepare legal
briefs.
Legal study is forbidden in
the cell when occupied by two
inmates, because it would en
courage trading and compar
ing petitions, by "jailhouse
lawyers" and would result in
a flood of writs, Gladden said.
Judge To Clear
Legal Log Jam
In Beck Trial .
Tacoma, Wash. -(DPD judge
George H. Boldt will rule
Monday on a legal log jam
that has temporarily blocked
the Dave Beck income tax
evasion trial.
Beck, former president of
the Teamsters' union, is
charged with evading $240,-
000 in income taxes during
the years 1950-1953.
Friday, check stubs were
admitted as evidence of finan
cial dealings between Beck
and a Chicago labor relations
expert.
The exhibits were describ
ed as the "informal records"
of Nathan Shefferman, head
of Labor Relations Associates
of Chicago, by Shefferman's
bookkeeper Miss Florence
Ouska.
Key Pieces
Shefferman's contribution
to Beck's wealth is one of the
key pieces in the govern
ment's jigsaw puzzle by
which it hopes to depict that
Beck evaded income taxes
during the years 1950-1953.
Boldt had admitted two of
the check stubs but after a
conference among attorneys
for both sides withdrew the
two stubs and said he would
rule on the matter Monday.
The defense contends the
stubs are not admissable be
cause they are not "business
records." The government ad
mits they are not business
records but contends they are
part of the transactions in
volving Beck and Shefferman.
