Stans, Wing trade
shouts during trial
By H.D. QUIGG
NEW YORK (UPI) — Mau
rice H. Stans and prosecutor
John R. Wing traded shouted
accusations of false testimony
and lying in a tumultuous
session Friday as the Mitchell-
Stans trial ended its ninth
week.
The criminal trial of Stans,
the former Commerce se
cretary, and former Attorney
General John N. Mitchell was
in recess over the weekend and
was expected to be in the hands
of the federal court jury by
Thursday.
The two former Nixon Cabi
net officers are charged with
trying to impede a federal
investigation of financier Rob
ert L. Vesco in exchange for his
secret $200,000 cash donation to
the 1972 Nixon campaign and of
lying to the grand jury about it.
The accusations Friday began
when Wing asked if Stans had
not started a talk with G.
Bradford Cook, then counsel to
the investigating Securities and
Exchange Commission, with the
words: “This is one of those
conversations that never took
place.” Cook had so testified.
“Absolute Lie”
“Mr. Wing, that’s an absolute
lie,” Stans said.
“In that conversation,
weren’t you doing your best to
conceal any connection between
you and the SEC investiga
tion?”
“No, that is not a fact.”
“Do you think you could
testify falsely under oath at the
time you appeared before the
grand jury?”
“Certainly not, and I had no
intention of doing so.”
“Haven’t you testified falsely
during the last few days?”
“Absolutely not, Mr. Wing,
that’s a lie and you know it!”
Stans shouted angrily.
Stans told the jury under
questioning by his attorney,
Walter J. Bonner, that if there
were discrepancies in his grand
jury testimony last year it was
because of his wife’s critical
illness in 1972 and 1973, which
left him physically exhausted
“even before the election.”
Lawyer Moved
This testimony apparently
moved Mitchell’s lawyer, Peter
Fleming. When he rose to
question Stans he seemed near

sections of the federal and
Philadelphia bar associations,
said all unemployed persons
should receive equal treatment.
Schubert was reacting to a
portion of an energy bill vetoed
by President Nixon, which
would have extended unemploy
ment compensation to those
who have lost their jobs due to
the energy crisis.
LOS ANGELES (UPI) - The
City Council Friday presented
an award and a bouquet of
roses to actress Jane Russell,
52, to honor the 20th anniver
sary of WAIF, the organization
she founded to find homes for
orphaned children.
“This is better than winning
an Oscar,” Miss Russell said.
The organization has chapters
across the United States and
has found homes for 28,000
children, she said.
tears. He ended with: “You
have my respect, Mr. Stans.”
Prosecutor Wing objected.
Fleming snapped: “I don’t care
if you do object.” The defense
rested and the jury retired.
Wing told U.S. District Court
Judge Lee P. Gagliardi: “I ask
you instruct the jury to
disregard the performance just
put on by Mr. Fleming, and I
have no doubt it was a
performance.”
“It was a remark that should
not have been made at all,” the
judge said, referring to the last
Fleming remark.
“I’m referring to the com
plete performance,” said Wing,
adding that for Fleming to act
“half in tears is a gross
miscarriage of justice.”
Bonner arose and shouted: “I
almost wept myself. I had to
use all my self control ...Are no
emotions allowed in this cour
troom?”
“You’ll weep enough at your
summation,” Wing said.
“I hope you’ll weep with
me,” Bonner retorted.
For some time now a group of Griffin Christians have been praying that a
Christian and Missionary Alliance Church would be started here. It
seems the time has come when their prayers will be answered. If you are
