motion to inspect the minutes of a grand jury hat had indicted liine individuals and a corporation for faulty construction Judge Alfred J. disclosed that only five of the 17 jurors who voted the indictment had attended all 32 probe sessions of the panel. Since a minimum of 12 jurors must attend all sessions to vote a legal indictment, Hofmann concluded the indictment must be set aside. Hofmann did not immediately throw out the charges, however, but announced he would entertain defense motions to this effect on Oct. 28.

Although the panel is still in existence. Dawson added, "I hope they select a new jury" to hear the evidence over again.

District Attorney T. Vincent Quinn offered no explanation for the costly counting mistake in the grand jury chambers. He shrugged off the ruling as a "temporary disruption" of his sewer inquiry based on "a legal technicality." Quinn Abandons Appeal. Given a choice in Hofmann's decision of appealing to higher courts or resubmitting the case "with appropriate precautions" to a grand jury again, Quinn said he was "reluctantly" abandoning an appeal. "It is my intention to re-present this matter to the grand jury immediately upon the entry of a final order giving effect to the court's decision he stated.

Queens Borough President James A. Lundy, whose investigators originally turned up the faulty construction in the Laurelton sewer, muffled his disappointment. Lundy Has No Comment.

Williams said he will seek to plug the "disgraceful" loophole by a bill to allow the Government to "attach or withhold the employe's salary to force payment taxes." The bill has the backing of the Administration.

Williams said some of the non-paying federal workers have developed "the un-American philosophy that as government officials they are above the law." -It is time that there be impressed upon these individuals the fact that they are subject to all the laws -which are applicable to any other American citizen," he said.
