Carter's Easy Plan Told in Greene Gaynor Case
In Savannah on January 20 the Greene and Gaynor trial progressed with the judge praising counsel and the jury amid continued defense arguments that conspiracy is not extraditable. Vouchers for war contracts and payments were admitted as evidence, with Mr Sterley and Mr Connolly cited in testimony about signatures and handwriting. The court weighed extradition and voucher admissibility as Theodore Carter and associates faced the conspiracy charges in a case tied to the Atlantic Contracting Company.
