MOBILE, Ala. April 20 (U. P.))—| Demurrers contending that freedom of the press and freedom of speech are secured not by the Federal Government, but by individual states, were on file in U. S. Distriet Court here today in behalf of Sam B. Powe, one of six persons indicted for an attack on Henry P. Ewald, former Mobile Press Register! executive editor. Mr. Ewald was beaten on the night of Feb. 14 in what U. S. District Attorney Francis H. Inge charges was a trap laid for him because of an expose he was conducting into lottery operations here.

Power Called Exclusive

Mr. Powe contended that the Constitution and laws of the United States have never at any time secured freedom of speech and freedom of the press except to state that Congress shall make no laws prohibiting free exercise of such rights. The Government of each state] has the exclusive power of de-| termining what freedom its citizens shall enjoy and that there is noth- | mg in the indictment to show viola- | tion of any Alabama law by the de-| fendant, Mr. Powe said. If the Government is upheld in| this case, a historic precedent of) vast importance to the cause of] freedom of the press will be estab-| lished. The demurrers, filed yesterday, also contend that Mr. Powe, a poli-| tician, had a right to enter into a| conspiracy with Bart B. Chamber-| lain Jr., assistant solicitor of Mobile, | for the purpose of obtaining evi-| dence of asserted law violation by Mr. Ewald. |

Hearing Set for April 25

The demurrers were set for hear-| ing pefore Judge John McDuffie on] April 25. Mr. Powe, Mr. Chamberlain and four others are scheduled tc face trial May 1 for conspiracy to deprive Mr. Ewaid of freedom of speech and freedom of the press. The demurrers contended the indictment does not show whether speech of Mr. Ewald had any connection with publications in the Press Register. They contended that Mr. Ewald, through writings in the papers, had charged commission . of misdemeanors by the defendant in alleged operation of lotteries and that he had appealed to citizens of Moible tc enter into a conspiracy with him to obtain evidence and to prosecute the defendant. Others under indictment are John Powe. brother of Sam; Peter V. Cro- | lich, former tavern operator; George and Meriam McKenzie.
