Editor Recieves Support Amid Grand Jury Contempt Row
Philadelphia Bulletin editor Earl Selby faces potential contempt citations after defying a grand jury by refusing to disclose information sources citing a 1937 state law. Assistant District Attorney Charles Rogovin requested the contempt action as Selby invokes protections for newspapers. The Bulletin argues the law shields source disclosure in legal proceedings. Alabama gains stronger representation on a committee following the death of Speaker Bankhead, with the state’s delegation applauding the expanded 15 member rules panel.
