The prospect of difficulty in securing an unprejudiced jury in Montgomery Oounty to try Herman and Leroy Brady, charged with the murder of Mrs. Naomi Hall Brady, in Seat Pleasant, Md., }ast New Year 4ay, brought about the re- quest of State's Attorney Frank Parran of Prince Georges County for a change of venue from Rockville, where & jury was unable to agree on a verdict months ago. { This Teason was given today by State's Attorney Robert B. Peter, jr., of Montgomery County, who said Mr. Par- ran prepared the affidavit asking for a | change of venue, following & convers veen the two prosecut Mr. Peter said he told the Prince Georges County State's attorncy that it would be almost !mpossible to secure a jury. He pointed out that a large num- ber of persons eligible for jury service were in the audience which heard the former trial, and that most persons in the county followed the case closely through the newspapers. It 1s usual in a request for change of venue, Mr. Peter explained, for the trial to be held in another county, but in the same judicial circuit. If this procedure was followed in the Brady case, the new trial would be held in FPrederick, Md. Mr. Parran, however, has sald that he considers Annapolis is a most con- venient location and that an attempt will be made to obtain the agreement of defense attorneys to the removal of the there.
