The trial opened at ten in |the morning in the Soviet Supreme Court building amid an atmosphere of working class simplicity and dir-!| ectness. Here, tio black-robed jus- | tives, no white wigs and bureaucratic | procedure was in evidence. The| Court Tribunal sits around a small| table.

To the left of the) ‘Tribunal sits Nikolai Kyrlenko, Com- | missar of Justice, famous for his! masterly work in the well-known | trials of Ratsin and other sabotag- ers and counter revolutionists. The audience in the small court room is composed mainly of foreign diplomatic corps, reporters of the foreign diplomatic corps, reporters of the foreign bourgeois and Commun- ist press and Soviet representatives. | Comrade Ulrich, chairman of the Court, opened the trial by explaining to the accused that they have the right by Soviet law to cross exam- ine witnesses and to say what they wish in their self-defense. Follow- ing this, the record of the first ex- amination of Stern and Vasiliev was Its connections with the | Vasiliev sat with his hand covering | his face, while Stern became more and more nervous.

At) forst, Stern denied these last facts | but under Krylenko ’s cross quest-| ioning, he contradicted himself fre- | quently in the crudest manner, be- coming hopelessly confused. At some | of his clumsy falsehoods a ripple of | amusement went, through the court} room.

The read to the court. During reading, oe ® MOSCOW, April 5.—The evenirig session of the trial of session continues this evening and tomorrow. Z | mine, | quarters. Stern and Vasiliev, war provocateurs against the Soviet Union, began last night by Krylenko summing up the morning session, establishing that Stern fired five shots at the head of Von Twardowski, German Embassy Counsellor and two shots at those attempting to arrest him. — Counsellor, the Court heard the Krilenko ridiculed Stern’s claim that among the nine automobiles used by the German Embassy, Stern selected and memorized von Dirk- sen’s and Von Twardowski’s per- sonal machines, When further ques- tioned regarding his political views, Stern became evasive, refusing to angwer some questions altogether. Starn even attempted to declare hitiwelf a “patriot” of the U. 8S. S. R, and a supporter of the Soviet peace policy. He dismally failed to @xplain how his terroristic act har- Manizes with the defense of the Soy- fet Union. Vasiliev Admits Guilt Vasiliev, who was questioned next, openly ,admitted his enmity to the Soviet Power. He became acquain- ted with Stern last November and soon realized that Stern hates the Soviet Government and thus finding common grounds, he decided that Stern was the proper man for him. Vasiliev declared he had instructions to organize the assassination of Dr. Herbert von Dirksen, German Am- bassador. Conversations with Stern revealed that the latter wsa prepared to mruder some member of the Sov- iet Government. Vasillev suggested the attack on the German Ambas- sador, explaining that this would in- yolve the U. 5. 8. R. in foreign com- plications, cat much trouble to the Soviet Power. Stern jumped at the idea and they decided to at- tempt the assassination at Leonti- evski and German streets where au- tomobiles must slow up, Vasiliev states hsi orders were to use @ revolver of Soviet make, He therefore welcomed. Stern’s plan to steal the revolver of a rieative in Leningrad. When this was done Vasiliev gave Stern a description of von Dirksen and the murder of his automobile. Vasiliev learned of the carrying out of the attempt from the newspapers, land realized that Stern mistook von Twardowsk! for von Dirksen, He refused to reply to the -question as to when he re- oeived orders to assassinate the Ger- man Ambassador, He explained he felt that Stern would not betray him, and therefore made no attempt to escape. When arrested, Vasiliev denied everything but after being confronted with Stern, he admitted his guilt in the statement mentioned above. Khilenko pointed out that origin- ally Stern gave truthful evidence to the Investigating Magistrate, while Vasiliev attempted to evade the charge. Now Vasiliev openly ad- mits his crime while Stern tries to evade and dodges questions. ‘ Stern Sister testifies Following the revelation of the po- Hitical motives of the attempt. on the life of the Garman Embassy evidence of Stern’s sister, Karasina, who volunteered information regard- ing her brother’s character. She confirmed that Stern stole the re- volver while visiting her in Lenin- grad last January, having previously repeatedly asked her to give him the revolver. She further testified that Stern since childhood was always mischievous, neglecting school, bringing to school outsiders when- ever his mother or father were in- vited to the school. He was connec- ted with Petliura’s and other White Guard armies. While in High School and college in Leningrad and Mos- cow he was several times expelled for absence and neglecting his studies. His behavior also cost him his Trade Union membership and several jobs. His sister affirmed that Stern al- ways disliked the Soviet Power, openly declaring his counter-revolu- tionary sentiments to her. He always wanted to go abroad. He became particularly bitter against the Soviet Power in 1930 when his sentiments crystallized into firm convictoin, Severing, socialist minister of the | interior, suppressed ten Communist newspapers. 4 The Vorwaerts, leading socialist newspaper, joins hands with the other | éapitalist papers and printed a braz- | en attack on the Soviet Union, de- | jclaring the present Moscow trial a |comedy and praising the assassin |Stern.

Her husband had gone to another city in search of a job. After five weeks of waiting the | woman was called to the relief head- She went to the office the day before Easter, thinking that the god-fearing christians would help her. But, to her dismay, she was told to come back Monday. She came Monday, hungry and ex- hausted. The man at the desk told her to return Tuesday. ‘The woman lost her patience and said to the man: “How can I go home with empty hands and hungry children?” “I am not the father of the chil- dren,” said the man. “I have enough to do to take caré of my own.” ‘This organization does nothing but ask questions about one’s name, birth and possessions—a@ lot of foolish questions they ask, but still the work- ers go hungry. N. V. Chevrolet Forces Workers to Buy Uniforms Roseville, Mich. Comrades: It is not enough that the large industries and corporations rob the workers of a chance to earn a few cents to try to maintain their fam- ily budget and cut down their work Foster Calls for Mass Action to Free Frank Borich NEW YORK. — Pointing out that only militant mass action will free Frank Borich, secretary of the Na- tional Miners Union, from jail where he is being held by the U. 8. govern- ment for deportation to fascist Yugo- Slavia, Wm. Z. Foster issued the fol- lowing statement calling on the work- ers to fight against the whole mon- sterous deportation program: The Department of Labor sleuths have seized Frank Borich, general secretary of the National Miners Union. They are holding him in the extravagant bail of $10,000, for deportation to fascist Yugoslavia. Only mass action on the part of the workers oan save Comrade Borich from being sent to this hell hole of capitalism, where not only his libs erty but his life is threatened. This outrage by Doak, secretary of Labor, is a further attempt to break up the National Miners Union, to terrorize and demobilize the miners in the face of the wave of wage cuts that is now taking place throughout the sdfe coal re- gions, and to re-establish the re- actionary UMWA in the coal dis- triots, It is in line with Doak’s strike-breaking tactics during the Pennsylvania-West Virginia - Ohio strike of last summer, when he called national conferences between the operators and the UMWA of- ficials for the deliberate purpose of smashing the strike and forcing the workers back to work under the UMWA and with heavy slashes in their wage scales, The arrest of Comrade Borich is the latest in a long series of similar hat | atiecks upon the revolutionary unions. Among such were the de- Portation of Comrades Devine and Murdoch, secretaries of the Na- tional Textile Workers Union, the arrest and threatened deportation of Comrades Berkman, Giambatisti, ete. The Department of Labor is determined evidently to illegalize the revolutionary unions. Mr. Doak further considers it as &@ main task of his depariment noi only to deport tens of thousands of foreign born workers and gen- erally to act as strike-breakers-in- chief, but to give the direct support of the government to the Ari of- ficials wherever they ave threaten- ed by the opposition of the work- ers. In Local 28 of the Sheet Metal Workers in New York, when 35 workers recently took out a court injunction against their racketeer officials, Mr. Doak sent his govern- ment agents to “investigate” and to try to terrorize them into submis- sion. Doak’s arrest of Borich is part of this general reactionary program. WORKERS, demand the release of Comrade Borich! Fight against the deportation of Berkman and Giambatisti! Fight against the whole monstrous deportation pro- gtam of the government! Adopt resolitions of protest in your unions and other organizations, and send them to the Department of Labor, to your congressmen, and to the labor press. Fight for the right of the workers to organize! WM. Z. FOSTER, Nat'l Buro, Trade Union Unity League.

DEPARTMENT STORES LAUNCH | PAY-CUT DRIVE; \Cashiers Get $8 a Wk.; New Orlans Store Cuts 20 PG (By a Worker Correspondent.) NEW ORLEANS, La—The D. H. Holmes Co,, a big department store here in New Orleans, will furnish its wor! with cool air this summer, but at the expense of the workers. They are at the present time in- stalling in this store a $100,000 cool- ing sysiem, In the past six months workers in | this store have had their wages cut | twice—cuts of from 10 to 40 per cent. Cashiers that were getting $8 per | week have been cut down to the starvation wages of $6 per week. In some dpeartments the bosses are making the workers take two weeks | off—telling them that he is doing |him a favor by not laying him off altogether. In the cafeteria the bus boys are only working four days per week, |} and each day they are being speeded ;up. They are only making $7.50 per eek. Yesterday was the big birth- ay sale—celebrating the 90th year | that this store has been exploiting | the workers, and, as is usually done | every year, the store opened one hour | earlier. But did the workers get paid for this extra hour? | bet your boots they didn’t, Wage Cuts. Maison Blanche, another big de- partment store, also cut the wages of the workers. The elevator op- erators in the office section of the Maison Blanche Building had a wage-cut of 20 per cent yesterday. In both these big stores the workers only way that they will be able to put a stop to this wage-cutting and speed-up that is getting worse every day. \Vote for Communist | In Grand Rapids Is| Greatly Above 1928 GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., March | |9.—In the municipal primary elec- | |tions held in Grand Rapids on| |March 7, the Communist Party | mayoralty candidate, Arthur J. |Briggs, polled 671 votes. ‘This | |mumber represents a substantial gain over the number of votes cast (119) in 1928 when the Party last participated in elections. In addition to the fact that the vote cast for the Communist can- | didate surpassed that of another dosses’ candidate who only received 622, it is clear that a big number of votes cast for Briggs were thrown out as over 1,000 votes were unaccounted for in the num- ber of votes officially cast and the | election returns. In addition on the night of the élections with a number of precincts not recorded the edunt for Briggs was 717 but the following day had dwindled to the official 671. ‘That the vote cast for Briggs is no indication of the influence of the Party becomes more apparent, when it is mentioned that it was theresult of a few weeks election campaign activity. against the Chinese APRIL 6th against im- perialist war.
