His nexu move was planned and it did not | contemplate acquiescing in Ger- |many’s submarine methods. Judge Robert: W, Jennings passed [sentence of 45 years on Edward Krause for the crimes of forgery {and fraudulent use of the mails for {which he had bee nconvicted. The motion for new trial on the murder charge against Krause was denied. As Krause had already been sen- Itenced to 10 years for kidnaping and three for impersonating an officer, his total sentence was already 58 ars. His attorney, Kazis Krauczu- Inas, announced that he would ap- peal all of the cases to the Circuit {Court of Appeal: A corporation hearing the name { the Icy Straits Packing Com- pany was formed by J.
