The late May or LaGuardia often did. the 21st in Beck's trial on charges of income .tax eva sion. Irvine was squirming under examination by U.S. attor neys who are attempting to prove Beck guilty of evading $240,000 in federal income taxes for the years 1950-1953. The questioning involved a matter of the deed to Irvine's house, situated in the Sheri dan Beach "compound" which Beck maintains in Seattle. Beck Guarantees Loan Irvine had built the house on a lot that Beck gave him. He had borrowed $14,000 from the bank on a GI loan, guaranteed by Beck. He had borrowed another $4,872 from the former Teamsters Union president to complete con struction and landscaping of the residence. And he had giv en Beck a quit claim deed so that "in case of an emergency Beck could take care of his family." The deed was assigned .to Beck in 1949, and at one point Irvine brought up the subject of his possible recall into the service because of the Korean conflict. But when Chief Deputy U. S. Attorney Jack S. Oben- our pointed out that the Ko rean conflict didn't erupt un til July, 1950, Irvine seemed to be really on the hook. Assistant defense attorney William Dwyer then came back for more cross-examination. "Would you like to have the quit claim deed back?" asked the youthful lawyer. Gesture of Generosity "The way things look, I'd love to have it," Irvine re plied. From the defense table, Beck waved his hand in a gesture of generosity. "Give it to him," he said with a chuckle. ; Dwyer did, right then and there. "Thanks," said Irvine, blinking. ' This particular bit of court room - conducted business means simply that Irvine now owns his own home but he still must pay the bank the balance of his loan' and tech nically he still is in debt to Beck for the $4,872 he bor rowed at the outset. sed under the weight of the snow. The roofs - of some homes and barns also caved in, but no one was hurt. Temperatures Drop The ; arctic air in the East plunged southward during the night, dropping temperatures an average of 10 to 17 degrees from eastern Texas through the Gulf Coast to northern Florida. Weathermen warned of pos sible freezing rain and haz ardous driving conditions to day in the Carolinas. Sub-zero readings retained their grip on the North from North Dakota and northern Minnesota through the north ern Great Lakes, Pennsylvan ia and parts of New England. A warming trend dented the nation's central section, boosting temperatures above the zero range and into the 20s from the eastern slopes of the Rockies to the mid- Mississippi and Ohio valleys. Accidents blamed on the snow and cold claimed at least 25 lives since the week end. 1 26 Inchts in Ohio Snow flurries persisted along the lee shores of the I Great Lakes, dumping 26 in ches of snow at Ashtabula, Ohio, on Lake Erie.
