BEAT NIGH MEAT PRICES! New Fight on Validity Of Strait Indictment Launched in Maryland A new attack on the validity of an indictment charging Norman R. Strait, 41, of Riverdale, with the rape of a 72-year-old Bla densburg woman was launched yesterday in Baltimore County Circuit Court. The case was set for trial in Towson, August 13, after a change of venue was granted on the de fendant’s chaim that his chance for a just verdict in Prince Georges County had been preju diced by newspaper publicity about the case, which occurred Febru ary 1. Moving for dismissal of a true bill returned a few weeks ago by the recalled April grand jury. A. Gwynn Bowie and Ignatius J. Keane, defense counsel, chal lenged the method by which the panel was selected and thus the legality of all its actions. Will Not Delay Trial. Arguments on the motion will be heard prior to the trial date but the court’s ruling, whether for State or defense, will not delay the trial since such a decision cannot be appealed until the case has been heard in court. In yesterday’s move, the defense claimed that the list of taxable residents of Prince Georges County filed by the clerk to the county commissioners with the clerk of the circuit court was nol a complete list, as the law re quires, but was only a partial list of persons on tax records. The defense claimed this pro cedure left Strait in the dark as to why some names were certified and others omitted and therefor* “involved substantial likelihood ol unfairness and prejudice to th< rights of the defendant.” Was Indicted in April. Strait was first indicted in Aprl but the grand jury was brough back to reindict him because o the unanswered question o whether grand Jury witnesses mus be sworn in the presence of i judge. His attorneys raised thi point in seeking their client’s free dom on a writ of heabeas corpus denied by the Prince George Circuit Court. The State Court of Appeals hel< that it could not consider thi question in a habeas corpus pro ceeding but did not rule on thi issue. Witnesses who appearei against Strait in April took thei oaths in a room apart from thi courtroom and out of the judge’ presence. Before returning thi last true bill, they were sworn ii open court. D.C. Reserve Postal Uni Nears End of Training Special Dispatch to Th# Star FORT MEADE, Md., Aug. 2 Two weeks summer* training wil be completed Saturday by th 318th Base Post Office, a Distric Army reserve unit here.

County Heads Will Ask Order To Open Berwyn Rail Crossing It will take a court order to get the Berwyn (Md.) grade crossing reopened, and the Prince Georges County commissioners are prepar ing today to seek such an edict. Spokesmen for the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad firmly said "no” to the proposal yesterday. With equal emphasis, the commissioners declared they will begin legal ac tion when the railroad notifies them in writing of its decision. The deadlock was the net result of a two-hour conference between the two groups in the County Service Building at Hyattsville. Cite Speed, Danger. Railroad representatives said trains speed by the point at 80 miles an hour and that the com pany is unwilling to assume the moral and financial responsibility for expected accidents. "To do so would be stepping backward,” declared P. G. Hoskins, Eastern regional general manager, “since the B. & O. and other rail carriers are committed to a policy of eventual elimination of all dangerous crossings.” Mr. Hoskins urged the commis sioners to seek another solution and indicated the B. & O. would consider paying half the cost of a bridge or an Underpass. Commissioner Edward J. Wa ters, who has led the fight for reopening, asserted that the danger of accidents is present everywhere and that ensuing con venience to residents of Berwyn Heights and College Park out weighs the risks involved. Closed in 1940. The crossing, closed in 1940, is in the middle of a highway con necting Edmonston road and route 1. The road and a bridge were constructed by the State in 1932 at a cost of nearly $300,000. Useless because of the crossing barricades, the route, neverthe less, is still maintained by the State. Its closing, the commissioners said, forces Berwyn Heights resi dents to cross the Beltsville over pass, a detour of 2.1 miles, ham pers commercial development and causes pedestrians to risk their lives on the tracks. Drugs Tested on Cholera United States and Indian medi cal men are jointly testing the use of chloromysetin, aureomycin and terromycin to see if they are effective on cholera and plague, 3 Officers af Ff. Meade Join Chaplains' Corps ly the Associated Press PORT MEADE, Md., Aug. 2.— Three young army officers became members of the corps of chap lains yesterday in an unusual ceremony at the post chapel here. The three are 2d Lt. John Louis Strube, jr., 23, Lansdowne, Md.; 2d Lt. John W. Hanks, 24, Jean nette, Pa., and 1st Lt. James A. Allison, jr., 26, Draper. Va . All were called to active duty with the Army as Reserves, and all transferred into the Chap lains’ Corps from other branches of the service. Lts. Strube and Hanks were promoted to 1st lieutenants, the lowest rank in t;he chaplaincy. The latter two officers class mates at the Lutheran Theological Seminary in Gettysburg Pa., were ordained as Lutheran ministers last May. Lt. Allison was ordained as Presbyterian minister in April after graduation from the Prince ton Theological Seminary. Japan’s iodine output for three years is reportedly covered by cur rent orders.
