In a telephone conversation with The Times, Mr. Campbell said: “I¢ is surprising to me that the governor and Rep. Grant, both of whom are attorneys themselves, would intercede in this ease after the U. 8. supreme court had denied the defendants’ petition for appeal. “Not only is the selection of jurors known to be within the disthe court, but the atthe defendants agreed y a selected.

was leased and not placed for sale.” To which Mr: Campbell replied; “The inflationary results of leasing a piece of machinery for more than it would be worth if pur-| chased are exactly as great as if the machinery were sold at inflationary prices. For instance, in this case, a tractor was leased on a 10year basis at $100 a year, payable | in advance. “That meant the purchaser paid $1000 for a tractor, “the ceiling price of which was $740. Furthermore, his lease stipulated he could sell it to a third party if he wished, making the subterfuge clear.” It has been unofficially estimated the “leasing” of farm machinery handled by the two auctioneers brought more than §500000 over what ceiling prices would brought in outright sale. The governor's letter to the President also alleged the two men were “splendid citizens” arti held that while “fines might be justified” they “should not be confined to a federal penitentiary.” Mr. Campbell pointed out that in the case of Steiner, it was his second brush with. the law over OPA ceilings. He was indicted on charges of violating price regulations in October, 1943, but was acquitted in South Bend the following November, “After that he opened up with this leasing idea,” Mr. Campbell said. “Now he has been convicted and the conviction has been upheld by the supreme court. We're going to see to it that both these men remain in the penitentiary until their sentences of 18 months | (Steiner) and a year and a day |

allowed his fingerprints to be taken! when he applied for a war job at] Briggs Indiana Corp. in Evansville early in this war. The shuffling of fingerprints apparently led to his arrest. The FBI said they were requested by the war department to look for him in Evansville and two other cities in June, 1945. After his arrest, he was turned over to military authotities at Camp Campbell, Ky. The provost marshal said he would be held, pending an appearance before the judge advocate. He said the probable course of action would see Mr, Hensley reinstated, then given a dishonorable discharge.

Then on July 29, 1625, he re-enlisted and was court-martialed for desertion and fradulent re-enlistment.
