Fair Play for Albers in Nicaragua Case Developments
Developments in the William S. Albers case at Ocatel Nicaragua suggest no government action may be needed if brothers receive fair treatment in court. A Philadelphia lawyer for Port Simon Co. may engage with Albers’ defense. Senor Corea met with Acting Secretary Loomis. Consul Donaldson may travel to explain his letter amid illness. Chicago friends press for relief as four Americans, including Mrs Sadie Albers, William’s wife, remain imprisoned. The U.S. President directs impartial treatment, with potential further action if fairness is not observed.
