PAGE FOUR HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON SUNDAY. JANUARY 22. 19is Slayer Says Testimony Distorted SAN FRANCISCO (UP)- Con vict-author . CaryL Chessman has pointed out a number. of alleged 'errors", In the transcription ol his 1948 trial, which he claims were responsible lor his death sentence. However, the 34-ycar-old convict . said he never raised the question of the errors and deletions before because he could not "substanti ate the charges" until 1954. . Chessman testified at a hearing before Federal Judge ' Louis E. Goodman on his petition for a writ of habeas corpus. He ad- . milted under cross-examination, that he knew of what he called 'erroneous statements" at the time he asked lor a new trial. (In 1954. the '.U. S, Court of Appeals denied Chessman's peti tion because the convict-author has "husbanded these contentions through ten habeas corpus pro ' reedings" and had failed to raise the issue at the appropriate time.) At the present hoarlnir, Chess man has charged that the errors in the transcript were the result of deliberate fraud by Los Angeles Judge Charles W Fricke, prosecu tor J. Miller Leavy, and Stanley Praser, who was hired to tran scribe the notes of court reporter Ernest Perry who died shortly after the trial. Chessman charged there was no mention in the record of Frickc's statement to the Jurors that "II they found bodily harm, they should return the death, penalty In, this particular case. He was found guilty on 17 counts Of robbery, rape, kidnap and sex perversion and sentenced to die. Chessman said he also testified Jjow police offered to charge him only with robbery if he would confess. " ,."My words are not in the tran- acr Dt." he sworo yesteraay, "They have been materially abridged.

Huge Tips Pile Up To Tax Count NEW YORK fPr-A former head waiter at the Waldorf-Astoria Ho tel has been indicted on a charge of falling to report more than $67, 800 he received in tips between 1949 and 1952. . The Internal Revenue Service says the case involving the retired headwaiter, Hans Paul, probably will touch off an investigation in this area of hotels and catering services at which workers make most of their money in tips. Paul, 63, now Is vacationing in Miami, Fla. He was Indicted Fri day on a charge of falling to re port the tips in his earnings during the four years preceding his retire ment. The government says Paul's salary during that period was $3,- 000 a year. Asst. U. S. Atty. David Jaffe estimated Paul cheated the gov ernment out of nearly S25.O00 in taxes. "It. is believed the government has been duped out of millions of dollars a year by those persons who fail to report an accurate ac counting of gratuitous tips," Jaffe said. Paul will return here Feb. 9 to plead to the indictment. C. C. Philippe, a vice president of the Waldorf-Astoria, said money collected contractually for waiters from dinners varied between $500, 000 and a million dollars a year for the past 10 years. The tips go into a common pool. with the waiters getting two-thirds and the remaining one-third going to captains and others in the ban quet department.

GP Blocks Mine Move GRANTS PASS Wl Grants Pass and Josephine County Cham bers of Commerce have blocked Bureau of Land Management plans for an Immediate ban on mining in a large block of federal lands. The bureau said it wished to withdraw from mining all federal lands for a distance of one-half mile on each side of the Revue River trom prospect to Agness, ( distance of 120 miles. Purpose of the withdrawal which was to have gone into effect Monday, was to retain the lands for recreational purposes. By asking the public hearings, the chamber groups have delayed the action. The chambers asked that the hearings be held at Grants Pass not earlier than May so that opponents of the plan will have time to prepare their case. Existing mining claims and patents would not be affected by the withdrawal but further expan sion of mining in the area would be halted. Local mining men contend that the lands hold valuable mineral deposits. Ore: GOP Gathers At Ike Dinner PORTLAND IB Oregon . publicans held their $100-a-Dlit.
