TIMOTHY LEARY CASE:

Had he paid the tax, Justice
John M. Harlan reasoned, he
would have run the risk of self-
incrimination by exposing himself
to 'state prosecutions.
Though the government argues
otherwise, Harlan said, the tax
law is aimed "at bringing tolight
transgressions of the marijuana
laws" and those who comply run
"a very substantial risk of self-
incrimination."

Dougas fo undati on
slse casino stocks
0- WASHINGTON tM - The private foundation headed by
Supreme Court Justice William 0. Douglas has sold its $2-
million stoclk holdings in a firm which owns three Las Vegas
gambling casinos, a foundation official said yesterday.
Justice Douglas, as the president and only paid official of.
the Albert Parvin Foundation, has come under fire in Con-
! gress for his. outside salary and the stock ties with the casino
ownership.
Records show Justice Douglas has been paid more than
$85,000 Eby the foundation over the past seven years.
Justice Abe Fortas resigned from the Supreme Court last
week in the controversy over a $20,000 check from the family
" foundation of jailed financier

the decision would affect about
100 federal cases.
The decision was the court's
first major pronouncement since
Abe Fortas resigned last week
under fire. It follows last year's
gutting of federal regulations to
register gamblers and certain fire-
arms users.
In reversing Leary's conviction
and 5-to-30 year prison sentence
the court struck two vital blows
at federal marijuana laws.
First, it established that a de-
fendant cannot be prosecuted for
transporting ,untaxed marijuana
so 'long as he correctly invokes
his fifthsamendment protection
against self-incrimination.
Second, it prohibits the assump-
tion that ra defendant knew the
marijuana was foreing-grown and
hence illegally imported.
And, in a companion case in-
volving a jazz musician from Co-
lumbus, Ohio, the court riddled a
third federal marijuana law-one
that made it a crime to obtain
marijuana without having paid
the transfer tax.
Still, Leary may not be wholly
in the clear.
The rulings permit convictions
based on proof the defendant knew
the untaxed marijuana found in
his possession was smuggeld into,
the country..
In other 'important actions, the
high court:
" Refused to review a Califor-
nia Supreme Court decision that
a topless entertainment act was
protected by the U.S. Constitution
as a form of expression. A lower
court had originally ruled the act
constituted indecent exposure and
lewd and- dissolute conduct in
public.
* Appearedt to backtrack from
recent expansions of the right to
a jury trial by holding that a
three-year probation sentence was
not "serious" enough to' have re-
quired one. The vote was 5 to '3.
r Made it easier for stockhold-
ers to file damage suits charging
corporation officials with fraud
by refusing to review a lower' court
ruling that officials filing false or
misleading' statements may be
liable for damages even when
there is no evidence the statements
were made to affect trading on
the market.

patrolman
e xpected
By JUDY SARASOHN
Informed sources said yesterday that Police Chief Krasny
is expected to announce today the dismissal of the patrolman
who was charged by the Human Relations Commission with
beating an HRC staff member on assignment.
However, Krasny last night called the reports "errone-
ous" and said no decision was made as of yesterday.
Krasny said he will make a public statement today con-
cerning the results of his investigation as soon as he confers
with Mayor Robert Harris and City Administrator Guy Lar-
com, who were out of town yesterday.
"I'm exploring all the legal angles," Krasny said, ex-
plaining that he is being careful to stay within fair labor
practices in relation to hi&-
handling of the officer's sus-
pension and his own investi- " '
gation.
Fair labor practices require that
the dismissal of a veteran be ef-
festive 15 days after notification, ie
and that the employe be allowed
a hearing.
Krasny said Friday night that
"recommendation of disciplinary asseu
action is expected" against the ,
patrolman, but added that "de-
