! i (i! Ill TWELVE HERALD AND NEWS Saturday. Oct . 194S WI S TIL SUSPENDED BY FRENCH JUDGE By MEL MOST PARIS, Oct. 8 (IP) Pierre Laval's trial was suspended to day after the former Vichy chief of government was expelled from the courtroom for the sec ond time in three days and then refused to continue his defense when recalled to the chamber. After ordering Laval from the French high court of justice for failing to answer a question lrom tne bencn, judge r aui Mongibeaux announced that the session was suspended for an ' "Indefinite period." Sit-down Strike Laval was brought back into the court a short time later, but went on a one-man, sit-down strike. Mongibeaux immediate ly discontinued the interroga tion of Laval and suspended the session a second time when there were no witnesses present to continue the trial. Upon his return to the court room, Laval said: "The insulting way you put your questions and the behavior of some of the jurors lead me to believe you are about to commit a judiciary crime in which I will not take part and I, therefore, prefer to sit down." Laval's expulsion and the day's first suspension produced an uproar in the court. Every one rose. Not French Justice A juror shouted: "That's not French justice!" In the French press box some one within earshot of Mongi- peaux saia: "L.avai is right." Laval, successful yesterday in contesting accusations that he plotted against France's domes tic security, still faced the more serious charge of having had in telligence with the enemy dur ing me isu meeting of Marshal . Petain and Adolf Hitler at Mon oire. Laval was expelled Thursday from the French high court of jusuce on me tirst day of his trial but was readmitted to the courtroom yesterday and made a lengthy plea in his own behalf. The expulsion order today came after a heated argument between Laval, Prosecutor Andre Mornet and Mongibeaux. Mongibeaux attempted to ob tain from Laval an answer as to who brought him back to power in the Vichy regime in 1942 after Petain had ordered him ar rested. Laval refused to answer the question.

Kas., member of the Winnipeg Grenadiers imprisoned at Hong Kong, said: "I was getting along pretty well until a Jap guard noticed the stars and stripes tattooed on my wrist. He went berserk and struck me on the face with his bayonet. Just as he was going to bayonet me a bomb from a trench mortar came through the roof and he beat it." United States airmen received the worst prison treatment of any, said Cpl. Walter Henderson of Ville Mary, Que. "When I was in a hospital near Shinagawa, being treated with pleurisy, they brought in five blindfolded Americans. They were kept outside in a shed three or four days. "One of them," Henderson continued, "a 19-year-old Ameri can from Chicago named Kelly, was then put in a bed near mine. He was nearly finished. He had been starved and beaten and had pellagra. They had to soak his clothes off." Kelly said the Japs went after the pilot especially for informa tion. They poured water down his throat trying to make him taiK. He was taken away some where and that was the last seen of him. Patton Defends Rescue Attempt BAD TOELZ, Germany, Oct. 6 (if) Gen. George S.

The four friends who had brought this paralytic to be cured of Jesus, had found the house packed out. So they edged the man up to the roof, threw back the tiles and lowl eretj him down.
