Despite his exoneration from complic- | ity in the alleged $1,500,000 civil fraud suit growing out of the sale of surplus lumber from Army cantonments follow- ing the World War, John Stephens, mil- lionaire lumber merchant of Jackson- ville, Fla., has again been drawn into the case by action taken yesterday of the United States Government. At the direction of the Solicitor Gen- eral and the Attorney General, special Government Counsel Willlam 8. Ward and Marcus Borchardt served a citation on Attorney Wilton J. Lambert, attor- ney for Stephens, of the noting of an appeal by the United States from that portion of the recent decree ot Justice Jennings Bailey of the District of Co- lumbia Supreme Court, holding John L. Philips of Thomasville, Ga., indebted 0 the United States in a sum of about $1,500,000, and holding other lumber merchants liable in lesser amounts. The court’s decree relieved Stephens of re- sponsibility for and notice of any al- leged illegal contracts made by Philips and same of his associates. Stephens took the witness stand dur- ing the presentation of the Govern- ment’s case and disclaimed all knowl- edge of any illegal transactions, although admitting that he was named as a part- ner with Phillips in the contract made by the Government for the disposal-of the lumber. ‘The contention of Government coun- sel in noting the appeal is that Stephens ‘was a partner with Philips in the eon- tract and may be held equally respon- sible with Philips under the general partnership liability. Philips and the other defendants are prosecuting appeals from the decree as far as fl. relates to them. OCEAN ClTY. MD.
