THE GOVERNMENT'S PROBE of an alleged bombing and
kidnap conspiracy apparently stems from testimony of a federal
convict paroled last month.
The Los Angeles Times yesterday identified the convict as Boyd
F. Douglas, 32, and said that he provided the justice department
with information about communications between the Rev. Daniel
F. Berrigan and Sister Elizabeth McAlister, two of the five indicted
in the case.
Justice Department officials, including Atty. Gen. John N.
Mitchel have refused to discuss Douglas' connection to the case. '
Mitchell, the Times reported, has ordered closed information
usually available to the news media, such as Douglas' federal prisont
records.

POLISH WORKERS continued slowdowns at the giant Lenin
Shipyards yesterday, demanding economic and political changes.
Reliable sources at the Lenin yards in Gdansk said that men
worked at half pace but that the atmosphere was calmer than on
Tuesday when crews continuously stopped work. City transport also
halted Tuesday when workers struck for four hours.
The yards are a key industry which Poland's new leader, Edward'
Gierek, cannot afford to let stagnate in his already ailing economy.

Trial may violate
Geneva accords
WASHINGTON Up) - The Justice Department may have
violated the Geneva Conventions when it granted immunity
for Paul Meadlo to testify in the My Lai trial of Lt. William
L. Calley.
The Geneva Conventions, one covering civilians in time
of war and one covering prisoners of war, obligate the United
States to prosecute persons alleged to have committed "grave
breaches" of the conventions.
Meadlo, now a civilian living in Terre Haute, Ind., testi-
fied Jan. 11 that he helped kill unresisting villagers in the
March 16, 1968, raid. Calley,
leader of Meadlo's unit, is on
trial by court martial at Ft. Higi1 Court

he sees no conflict between Wil-

there might be a violation if the
United States is unable to t r y

My Lai slayings.
In accepting the Geneva Con-
ventions, the United States agreed
to pass laws to provide for pun-
ishing violators. But there is con-
cern now that there may not be
adequate law to cover soldiers in-
volved at My Lai who have since
left the Army and therefore are
no longer subject to military law.

Robin Hood:
man or myth?
PENKRIDGE, England () -
Charles Wilkes, retired history
schoolmaster, yesterday completed
years of research and concluded
that Robin Hood's name was Alf,
never wore Lincoln green and op-'
erated 50 miles from Sherwood
Forest.
Wilkes contends Robin was Al-
fred de Hunterden, a noble thrown
out of his manor for revolting
against Henry If. He did rob the
rich, but there is some doubt he
ever gave anything to the poor.
And, the schoolmaster said,
there's no use trying to find any
traces of Little John, Will Scarlet
or Friar Tuck. They just weren't,1
he concludes.
WASHINGTON (P) -- The Su-
preme Court decided yesterday
that contempt citations appended
to a defendant's penalties follow-
ing his conviction should be ruled
upon by a second judge.
Justice William Douglas deliver-
ed the unanimous opinion, in
which he did not defend court-
room disruption but instead de-
clared that a Judge "not reviled
by the contemnor" should decide
the contempt issue.
Douglas, who is regarded as the
court's most liberal member, said
it is basic to the Western tradi-
tion that a courtroom be "a hal-
lowed place of quiet dignity as far
removed as possible from the emo-
tions of the street."
The justice denounced court-
room "vulgarity" as he delivered
the opinion condemning a defend-
ant's personal attack on a Penn-
sylvania trial judge.
The defendant, Richard A. May-
berry, on trial before Judge Al-
fred A. Fiok in Allegheny County
Criminal Court in 1966 for a pri-
son break, called the judge "a
dirty sonofabitch" and a "tyran-
nic.,ii<old dog."
Douglas said Judge Fiok, as the
target of Mayberry's insolence, was
not likely "to maintain that calm
detachment necessary for fair ad-
judication."
"A judge, vilified as was this
Pennsylvania judge, necessarily
becomes embroiled in a running,
bitter controversy."~
The contempt should have been
ruled on by "another Judge not
bearing the sting of these slander-
ous remarks and having the im-
personal authority of the law,"
Douglas said.
The ruling struck down M a y-
berry's contempt conviction and
his 11- to 22-year prison sent-
ence.
But it was ambiguous about the
rights of defendants and the
course to be followed by judges
who slap them down for contempt..
"Genera'lizations are difficult"
the justice said in leaving this is-
sue somewhat unsettled.
The ruling did not disturb May-
berry's conviction for prison break
and holding hostages.

WASHINGTON OP) - House
Democrats yesterday weakened
seniority's grip on House power
by forcing entrenched elderly
leaders to give up a number of
subcommittee chairmanships to
younger members.
After more than three hours
of closed door Democratic Cau-
cus debate they approved new
rules requiring that:
-The 21 powerful committee
chairmen may also head only
one of their subcommittees.
-No House member may be
chairman of more than one
legislative subcommittee, word-
ing permitting members to head
more than one subcommittee if
only one is designated as being
legislative.
Some subcommittees are in-
vestigative rather than legisla-
tive.
The maverick actions followed
the promotions of Carl Albert,
(D-Okla) and Hale Boggs, (D-
La.) to speaker and majority
leader.
The two new rules' were the
first of a package, prepared by
a caucus committee, designed to
spread powerful chairmanships
around to more members and
make it easier to oust chairmen.
But a group of young House
liberals pressed for broader re-
form to oust 11 of the present
chairmen in 1973 by barring the
power seats to anyone who is
over 70 or who has been a chair-
man more than eight years.
There was also a move afoot
to elect Democratic whips from
now on rather than appoint
them, since they traditionally
move up to majority leader and
then to speaker.
As Democrats moved to wrap
up a two-day caucus, House
Republicans began theirs. On
