SummaryResumen
At the retrial of Washington attorney John J. Frank, accused of failing to register as an agent of the Dominican Republic and of Generalissimo Rafael Trujillo, FBI agent Fred Woodcock testified that Frank told him he had acted as security adviser for Trujillo on a European trip in 1954 and when the dictator visited Kansas City in late 1955, and had served as attorney for a Dominican ship repair firm. Jacksonville shipbuilder George W. Gibbs, Jr. testified that from 1954 through 1956 he headed a Dominican ship repair firm apparently controlled by Trujillo; Frank's earlier conviction on the same charge, in December 1957, was reversed last October by the Court of Appeals.
En el nuevo juicio del abogado de Washington John J. Frank, acusado de no haberse registrado como agente de la República Dominicana y del generalísimo Rafael Trujillo, el agente del FBI Fred Woodcock declaró que Frank le dijo que había actuado como asesor de seguridad de Trujillo en un viaje a Europa en 1954 y cuando el dictador visitó Kansas City a fines de 1955, y que había sido abogado de una empresa dominicana de reparación de barcos. El constructor naval de Jacksonville George W. Gibbs, Jr. declaró que de 1954 a 1956 dirigió una empresa dominicana de reparación de barcos aparentemente controlada por Trujillo; la condena anterior de Frank por el mismo cargo, en diciembre de 1957, fue revocada el octubre pasado por el Tribunal de Apelaciones.

Mr. Falk said he did not know
