Roberts, the pres- ident’s special counsel, really appear- ed as special assistants to the at- torney general and therefore ghould | haye been barred. On the latter phase the court said that it was immaterial that Pomer- ene and Roberts had signed the in- dictment as “special assistants,” be- cause it was not necessary that they sign at all. They were rightly pres- ent, the court said, as the govern- ment's “special cotinsel.” Statute of Limitations Counsel for Harry F. Sinclair sald the charge of conspiracy lodged against all four of the defendants could be submitted to another grand jury. They contended, however, that the bribery charges against Fall and the Dohenys must fall be- cause the three years statute of limitation is now effective. The indictment for contempt of the senate, returned against Harry F. Sinclair because of his refusal to answer questions put by the oll committee, {8 not involved in the proceedings today.
