J. Mac- Rae, presiding at the June sitting of the General Sessions of the Peace in Whitby. Charged was David Lawrence Solomon, 22, of Oshawa, represented at the trial by R. D. Humphreys, QC, of Osh- awa. The charge arose as a result of an accident on Simcoe Street North, in Oshawa, on the evening of April 15 when Thomas Richard Jackson, son of Mrs. Lillian Jack- son, 225 Kendall Street, Oshawa, was knocked from his. bicycle, re- ceiving injuries which proved fatal.

Great Scholar Raps Inquiries NEW YORK (AP)--Dr. Albert Einstein said in a letter made public Thursday that 'every in- tellectual" should refuse to testify before a United . States congres- sional investigating committee. The letter was received by teacher William Frauenglass, who faces loss of his job for refusing to testify before the Senate inter- nal security sub-committee. In his letter, dated May 16, the physicist said in part: "The reactionary politicians have managed to instill suspicion of all intellectual efforts into the public. by dangling before their eyes a danger from without. "Having succeeded so far they are now proceeding to suppress the freedom of teaching and to de- to refuse to testify, l.e., he must be prepared for jail and economie ruin, in short, for the sacrifice of his personal welfare in the interest of the cultural welfare of his country. "This refusal to testify must be based on the assertion that it is shameful for a blameless citizen to submit to such an inquisition and that this kind of inquisition violates the spirit of the constitu- tion, "If enough people are ready to take this grave step they will be successful. If not, then the intel- lectuals of this country deserve nothing better than the slavery which is intended for them." Frauenglass, a teacher for more than 23 years, said he wrote to Einstein at Princeton, N.J., May 9, asking for a statement to help "in rallying educators and the | public to meet this obscurantist | before one of'the committees ought | attack."
