Dyniting Plot Evidence Falls Short in Grand Jury Testimony
San Francisco December 2. Testimony by Lewis J. Smith before a federal grand jury failed to substantiate allegations that higher ups plotted dynamiting operations against ships carrying munitions to cities.

District Attorney Preston declined to reveal specifics, noting the testimony was kept under tight seal. A warrant for Smith remains unserved and further arrests were not confirmed.
