Hiss’ 2d Trial Put Off to Nov. 1

NEW YORK, Oct. 10 (UP)—! The opening of the second Alger Hiss perjury trial was adjourned today until Nov. 1 to allow a new! defense trial counsel more time, to familiarize himself with the ease. The adjournment was granted by Federal Judge Vincent L. Leibell on the request of Claude B. Cross of Boston, who is replacing Lloyd Paul Stryker as trial counsel. Judge Leibell also eliminated himself as a possible trial judge. “A member of my family is employed by Time, Inc. and has ‘met Whittaker Chambers in the office,” Judge Leibell said. He said that for that reason he felt he should not be connected with [the case. Mr. Chambers is the ipirncipal witness against Mr. | Hiss.
