NEW YORK (AP) _ Lauson Harvey Stone, a lawyer appointed by the War Department to defend eight Nazi saboteurs tried in Washington in 1942, died on Sunday. He was 94.
Stone, an Army major when he was added to the saboteurs' defense team, was the son of Harlan Fiske Stone, the chief justice of the United States from 1941 to 1946.
The eight German-born operatives had landed on Long Island and near Jacksonville, Fla., from submarines with orders and equipment to blow up production and transportation targets. The Long Island group was caught by the Coast Guard and revealed the plot.
Among the arguments presented in the group's defense at their largely secret military trial was the constitutionality of the proceeding and whether President Franklin D. Roosevelt could legally keep the case out of civil courts.
At a special Supreme Court session, the defense said the eight had made the submarine trips to escape Germany. But the court affirmed Roosevelt's authority in the case, and all eight were convicted. Six were electrocuted and two were imprisoned.
