Day & Night Nursing
Henry ("the Dutchman") Grunewald, once a big influence peddler around Washington (TIME, April 27 et seq.), dodged congressional investigators by refusing to answer questions, dodged a jail sentence for contempt of Congress when Federal Judge Alexander Holtzoff put him on probation four months ago. Last week artful Henry was in court again, charged with violating his probation.
Probation officials noted that Grunewald and a woman identified as Mrs. Ann Anderson or Mrs. Alma McGlue 1) had been thrown out of a suite in Washington's Sheraton Park Hotel for being drunk, 2 ) had registered under assumed names at a Newark hotel, and 3) had been found unconscious and mostly unclad in a gas-filled apartment in Jersey City. Through his lawyer, William H. Collins, Grunewald gave his explanation: the woman was always at his side to give first aid in case he had a heart attack.
Said Judge Holtzoff: "But this woman is not a ... trained nurse."
Collins: "But she has had Red Cross first-aid training."
Judge Holtzoff: "Lots of people have . . .'
The judge had just a few more words to say to Grunewald: 90 days in jail.
