- <p> DIED. JULIEN CORNELL, 84, the civil-liberties lawyer who
- defended poet Ezra Pound against charges of treason for his
- World War II activities; in Goshen, New York. Cornell argued
- that Pound--who had broadcast pro-Fascist and anti-Semitic radio
- programs from Italy during the war--was insane and unfit to
- stand trial. A special federal jury agreed, and the poet was
- ordered institutionalized.
