Lamar Caudle, evader, jvhp once exercised power'held by ew men, are Hearing the end of he line in their long battle to stay of prison. It has been a losing fight so far. And the two Truman administra- ion officials have about exhausted heir legal moves. Barring a sudden change in heir courtroom fortunes, the pair oon must surrender and start erving two-year prison terms for onspiring to defraud the government. They also were fined $2,500 each.

The former officials, twice denied a review by the Supreme Court, are taking their case to the high court for a third time. When Harry S. Truman was in he White House only a handful top government officials could the President without first clearing the appointment with 'Matt," as Connelly was known thousands. The trim, athletic Connelly was the presidential appointments secretary. "Country Boy" Caudle, who has been called a country boy dazzled by city slickers was in a way even more powerful.

As head of the Justice Department's Tax Division, he held veto power over prosecution of accused federal income tax evaders throughout the United States. Caudle, now a lawyer in his hometown of Wadesboro, N. and Connelly, of New York, were convicted a federal jury in St Louis June 14, 1956. The jury of eight men and four women deliberated nine hours anc took several ballots before reaching a decision that Caudle and Connelly accepted oil royalties in exchange for using their influence to block prosecution or ease the sentence for Irvin Sachs, a St Coudfe Face Prison Ex-Officials Near End of Legal Fight wholesaler and tax Sachs was fined $40,000 but did not go to prison. The alleged "fixer" in the case was Harry I.

Schwimmeiv Sachs attorney. He was indicted with laudle and Connelly but was granted a mistrial when he col- apsed with a heart ailment at the jtart of their trial. He was not brought to trial again. Strange Before Caudle and Connelly were sentenced, the case took a itrange turn. Federal District Judge Rubey M.

Hulen, who presided at the engthy trial, was found dead of a pistol shot. It developed he had seen under treatment by a psychiatrist for insomnia. A coroner's jury was unable to deter mi whether the judge killed himself accidentally or deliberately. Caudle ran into trouble with congressional committees before the charge was brought against him. While still in office Truman fired Caudle for outside activities incompatible with his government dutes.

But the former president has never faltered in his support of "Matt," who served during World War II as chief investigator for the Truman Senate Investigating Committee. Truman gave a deposition in Connelly's behalf during the trial. In Boston last Sept. 19, speaking, at a fund-raising dinner tarns former secretary, Truman accused the Eisenhower administration of "hounding to death" some of the officials who served under him. Expenses Raised "I'm here to tell you that I'm going to keep after them until justice is done to this fellow," the former president said, pointing to Connelly.

The dinner produced about $120,000 for Connelly's legal expenses. Earlier, in an unsuccessful plea for probation or reduction of sentence, Connelly disclosed he was deeply in debt. Caudle said he was almost bankrupt. With Judge Hulen dead. Federal District Judge Gunnar H.

Nordbye of Minnesota was assigned to the case and imposed sentence. The U. S. Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals, in one of its numerous rulings in the case, rejected a defense claim that Judge Novdbye was unqualified since he was not present at the trial. Once before, when the Supreme Court refused fora second time to review the case, it appeared that time had run out on Caudle and Connelly.

But they claimed new evidence and once more asked for a new trial. The evidence they advanced was an affidavit by Schwimmer, the former co-defendant. Schwimmer swore a memorandum from his files, used as evidence against Caudle and Connelly, was made without the knowledge of either. Request Denied Judge Nordbye rejected the request for a new trial, calling Schwimmer an admitted perjurer and arch conspirator. 'It seems inconceivable," Judge Nordbye said, "that the additiona evidence of one who spawned the scheme to corrupt government of- could have any weight in Droducing a verdict other than which was returned by the jury." The Court of Appeals uphelc Judge Nordbye.

Fox and his associates find that ducing themselves. Hot springs or warm areas under the sea floor could provide such conditions now, he thinks. Widely separated hot springs are known to haye similar types of certain bacteria and blue-green algae.

Life is thought to have begun when proteins were formed out of simple building blocks known as amino acids. It is proteins which make up flesh, muscle, and chemical regulators of life. Acids Heated Fox and his associates tried to produce proteins by heating 18 different amino acids which are common to all proteins. Heat usually destroys amino acids, turning them into messy tar. Market Declines In Pre-Holiday Trading Lull NEW YORK light pre- Christmas trading, the stock mar ket declined this week for the Eirst time in five weeks.

The trend was confused most the time as yearend transactions continued to create cross cur rents. Volume declined progres sively from Monday to Christina: Eve which produced the smalles turnover in more than tw months. The week's volume of 11,447,11 shares was not comparable wit! the previous week's volume 16,093,722 shares because th Christmas holiday cut this wee to four trading sessions. The dail average of 2,861,778 shares, how ever, was the smallest since th week ended Oct. 2 4when the av erage was 2.777,361 shares.

A scattering of stocks had som wide moves but the signif But heat of even more than 300 degrees produced protein-like material when the Florida scientists started out with a large proportion of two particular amino acids, aspartic acid and glutamic acid. This material could be eaten by some bacteria as nutritious foodstuff and even be digested by enzymes. A temperature of only 212 water boils produced the same result when poly- phosphoric acid was added. Forms Spheres The protein-like material forms into billions of tiny spheres if it is dissolved in hot water and then allowed to cool. These round objects have some of the properties of membranes of simple bacteria, Fox said.

This suggests how early life could have organized itself into cells. ic structure of all cant development from the ted nician's angle was the fact tha the Dow Jones industrial averag failed again to keep above a intra-day high which would hav put the closing average at a nei record top. The Dow industrial recorded a similar failure th week before. The Dow made this move Monday, the only three-million share day of the week.
