Mitchell Gets 60 Days 10 Jail
Frank A. Mitchell, convicted of shipping goods after a bankruptcy filing, was sentenced to 60 days in county jail by Judge Porter. The sentence was reduced from the planned harsher term after explanations by attorney J Norman Martin. Mitchell, manager of Crescent Compound Co Ellwood City, argued the company was a District of Columbia corps and lacked necessary papers in the state. No goods loss was found, and the trustee had taken control of shipments to Pittsburgh. Judge Porter emphasized the sentence reflected only the present charge.
