Anchorage Landlord
Guilty On Eight Counts
A jury verdict of guilty was re
♦urned yesterday in the case of
United States vs. Will Key Jeffer
son, Anchorage landlord, who
since January of 1945 has been
involved in a series of litigations
stemming out of violations of OPA
rent regulations. Eight separate
counts were named in the grand
jury indictment on which he was
adjudged guilty early in February
in U. S. District Court at Anchor
age, one count being withdrawn at
the beginning of the trial.
The Jefferson case has attracted
considerable attention in the Ter
ritory, as it has involved two in
junction actions by OPA, con
tempt of court charges and $100
fine for such contempt, also crim
inal contempt charges later dis
missed by U. S. District Attorney.
Another highlight of the case
was the filing of a damage suit by
Jefferson, asking $50,000 damages,
naming Alaska OPA officials and
claiming he was being unjustly
involved in court action by them.
Yesterdays’ verdict of guilty
was returned by the jury, sen
tence to be imposed later by Dis
trict Judge Anthony J. Dimond.
