ACQUITTAL IN FEDERAL CASE (Continued from Page One) stamped with the official U. S. government stamn was a much debated question and Boivin asked why Edward B. Twining, U. S. attorney, did not produce these cases as evidence in court, Boivin stated that there were six different versions as to the type of markings stumped on the cases. Bricco took the stand yester day in his own defense and said upon interrogation that he had no idea that the articles were stolen or where they came from, but that he thought they came from a Drlvate concern. Twining contended that Bric co knew exactly what he was doing when he bought the goods which were delivered by men m uniform in a marine corps truck. He also said that Bricco would not have payed $850 for the cases without first checking the contents. He also charged that Bricco gave no points for the meat and butter he allegedly bought. The government placed WO Edward Kron, who was assistant provost marshal at the Marine Barracks on or about April 27 when the goods were allegedly stolen, on the stand and Kron testified that he told Bricco that "you've got yourself into a hell of a peck of trouble," whereupon Bricco allegedly replied, "I sure have. This is the first time I've ever been a crook." Defense witnesses were Frank Z. Howard, Bricco, Mrs. Marvin Roedcr, Alfred Castel, Mrs. Al fred Castel, and character wit nesses included R. S. Dixon and Fred Pope, both of Ft. Klamath. The government witnesses in cluded the two marines who al legedly stole the property; Sgt. John W. Rogers and Sgt. Everette M. Moser, who were brought here from Terminal Island penitentiary, San Pedro, Calif.: PFC J. R. Woolridge. 1st Lt. Berthold O. Fay. WO Emil Anreas. Max ' L.

Quisling disclaimed the letter, but said he had sought means of uniting a bloc of na tions with Germany." "During the occupation I had to be practical in dealing with the Germans," Quisling testi fied. "German authorities in Norway tried time and again to establish a military dictator ship.
