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. The precise details are
not as I gave them." ,

Girl Leader
In Robbery
BIRMINGHAM. Ala. IAI A 13-year-old
runaway girl led a gang
of Birmingham boys in the rob
bery of an automobile driver Fri
day night and was captured later.
Dct. Lt. O. B. Wilson said the
girl told officers she came to
Birmingham from Indiana. She is
dark haired and blue - eyed and
looks much older. She was Identi
fied as Hazel Marie Gentry, Ham
mond, Ind.
Wilson said the gang was or
ganized at a downtown cafe where
the girl met five teen-age boys.
Wayne S. Ouston, 21, said the
group held him up after he gave
the girl and boys a ride to West
Birmingham. He said the girl
pulled a knife and one of the
boys menaced him wilh a pistol.
He said the teen-agers took his
billfold which contained about $36.
The girl was captured later at
a service station, but the boys
scattered. They appeared to be
between 13 and 15 years old.
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.

Polio Vaccine
Lack Reported
PORTLAND lffl Temporary
shortages of Salk anti-polio vac
cine are being reported in several
sections of Oregon, the State Board
of Health said Saturday.
But Dr. Harold M. Erickson,
state health officer, said it ap
peared that -the problem was main
ly one of supply and distribution
of commercial allotments.
He said that there was still an
adequate supply of public vaccine,
available without charge, through
physicians, to those unable to af
ford it.
Supplies of commercial vaccine
In some areas have exhausted,
however. Erickson said he expect
ed this to be remedied by dis
tributors and that a new allocation
of the vaccine is expected soon.
Roseburg and Eugene reported
short supplies. '

Faces Crisis
SAN FRANCISCO (UP)
tional Chairman Joseph R. Stewart
of the 1956 American Red Cross
campaign for members of funds
said the organization faces its most
serious financial crisis since the
start of World War II.
Stewart made the statement here

less than $1, 000. 000 left to finance
disaster relief for the last six

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.
