BROWNSVILLE, Texas — A fed-
judge Wednesday dismissed the
emment’s case against two men
ged with distributing 8 tons of
iat from the endangered Pacific
ley turtle and blistered prosecu
tors for their inept handling of the
,S. District Judge Filemon Vela
night the day-and-a-half old trial
ian abrupt halt by granting defense
tons for a directed verdict of in
rent on grounds the government
led to prove guilt.
[‘(The defendents) may have
dated consumer law when they
ded turtle meat as fish fillets to get
last inspectors,” Vela said. “But
where the government failed was
that it did not show the meat was
from the Pacific Ridley, an animal
protected by the endangered species
act.”
Vela also was critical of Justice De
partment prosecutor Jose Toro,
saying the case was “very, very
weak. ” He added that what evidence
there was had not been presented
“in such a way that’s understand
able.”
On trial were Pat Leroy Pace,
owner of Pace Fish Co. Inc. of
Brownsville, and seafood distributor
Ben Soloff of Philadelphia, Pa., own
er of Ben Soloff Inc.
In the first case brought to trial
from a special Justice Department
task force investigation, government
agents claimed Pace and Soloff im
ported and sold 17,377 pounds of
meat from the Ridley sea turtles.
Pace, whose family sat through the
trial, said he was pleased with the
judge’s ruling.
“I’m very happy,” he said. “I’m
glad justice is done.”
The judge’s action means Pace and
Soloff are cleared of all charges in the
case. Prosecutors have the right to
appeal but there was no indication if
there would be one.
“I’m disappointed,” Toro said.
“These cases are hard to try. But the
task forces are going to continue.
We ll just have to tighten our belts
and do it better next time.”

The study was released by the
Gihon Foundation, a Dallas based
non-profit group that fosters full par
ticipation of women in business and
founded by the late Bette C. Graham
— the inventor of Liquid Paper cor
rection fluid. It was based on a sur
vey of 74 top-level managers and 422
middle managers (277 men and 222
women).
Although 59 percent of the mana
gers surveyed said they believed
men had been promoted quicker
over women during the last decade,
56 percent said “equally qualified”
men and women had advanced at
nearly the same pace during the last
two or three years.
“However, approximately one-
fourth of all managers disagree and
think that women have not risen as
rapidly as men within the last two to
three years,” the survey said.
“Women of all ages tended to com
mit to their careers later than the
men and often began as secretaries,”
according to the report. “Few
women had any line or general man
agement experience.”
Among the other findings were
top management women are more
willing to transfer for job advance
ment than men, middle manage
ment women try to combine careers
with families but top management
