Justice Olson advocates a change

are suffering. from dementia pree-

Justice Olson sees the case as a

‘ was asked about a— trip to the Wood~
mansten inn. in the Bronx, in com-
pany with the three persons named.
Almost at the beginning of his
questioning Mr. Fallon himself
Jumped to his feet and objected to
the questions as being of a leading
nature and requested the court to
instruct the Assistant Federal Ab
torney to ask direct questions, Judge
McCiintie ruled in favor of Mr. Fat:
lon's objection. ‘ '
Sent Waiter to Get Fallon
Miss Hopkins testified that Fallon
left the table at ‘the inn and was
gone for about twenty-live minutes.
She said she sent the waiter to find
him. as they had not yet eaten. Att-
er dinned they all left the inn to-
gether- in her car.
Fallon undertook the cross-exam-
ination of the witness personally.
“There were other occasions when

"And it was on such an occasion

The witness nodded and Apnea

Period of His Absence.
Fallon then questioned her about
tlfi period of time, which she testi-
fied had elapsed when he left the
dining table. it was in this interval
that the Government contends Fall-
on spoke with Rendigs.
The countess replied that it seem—
ed like twentydlve minutes.
"Oh. it only seemed that long to
you because you were hungry. isn‘t
that so ?" inquired the defendant.
This question brought a burst of
laughter from the spectators. Judge
McClintic threatened to clear the
courtroom if it occurred again.
"I imagined it was that long," was
the answer.
"You never heard the name Reu-
digs mentioned by me at the table
then or at any time, did you 2’"
"No."
"You knew who Rendigs was?"
“YES."
"Did you see him there?"
"No.”
Clara Phillips Also Called
Clara Phillips. the other member
of the party at the the was also
called at a witness by the Govern-
ment to corroborate the details of
the-trip. She testified that she had
known Peggy Joyce and Fallon for
seversl ‘ years.
L‘nder cross-examination by Falv
Ion she admitted that it was at the
suggestltn‘i of Peggy Hopkins that
they went to Woodmansten Inn.
Incidents of the party at the inn

csris, head waiter at the inn. called
as a Government witness.
He told how Rendigs. the juror.
came to the inn early that evening.
before the arrival of Fallen and the ‘
others.
The case earlier in the day was
marked by the cross-examination of
Eidlitz. who was Fallon’s confident-
ial man and now his accuser. There
were several clashes between
{udge McClintle and R. J. Shanahan
haiion's counsel. over the line of
questioning. .
Mr. Shanahan asked Eldlits if he
made certain statements to Fallen

February. Eidlits denied having
made any of the statements Mr.
Shanahan attributed to him.
