Knapp Defense Closes in New York Census Case
The defense rested in the Florence E. S. Knapp trial after four hours of testimony. Knapp denied step-daughter Clara Blanche Knapp’s accusations about a $2,875.06 census check and explained the funds paid for family housing shares. She said relatives listed on the census payroll in 1925 and 1926 performed actual work on the census. Justice Callaghan planned to instruct the jury after summations.
