Aroff Defense Attorneys Say He Was Buying Car

~ On Time Basis.

SAN FRANCISCO July 29 (U. P.) —Defense attorneys for Lieut. Comm. Maurice M. Aroff, on trial before a general court-martial, disclosed today that they will seek to prove that Aroff accepted a Studebaker sedan from Actor Tony Martin as a temporary arrangement while he sought to buy another car. Charges against Comm. Aroff, formerly of the local office of naval officer procurement, include an accusation that he accepted the automobile for facilitating Mr. Martin’s enlistment as a naval chief specialist. Mr. Martin had listed his sea-

going experience as “a round trip

to Hawaii.” Lieut. Comm. Ray Robinson, defense attorney, disclosed informally that Martin and Aroff were old friends and that when Aroff wanted to buy a Cadillac he was unable to get ‘one in San Francisco, Comm. Robinson said Mr. Martin told Comm. Aroff to use the Studebaker

and offered to give him the car,

Offered Time Payments

“Aroff said he could not accept it,” Comm. Robinson said, “and we have that conversation on record.” Comm. Robinson said Comm. Aroff arranged to pay Mr. Martin on a time basis and sold the Studebaker for cash, using the proceeds to buy a Cadillac. “After he was relieved from duty, he sent Martin a war bond of $375 cash value as part payment,” Comm. Robinson continued. “I think the reason was that Martin’s family had asked -Aroff to look out for Martin and did not want him to have a lot of money to spend.”
