Hale, prosecution witness, who was_on the stand yesterday, will be recalled in an effort by defense attor- neys to impeach his testimony on the ground that he is a fugitive from justice. Defense Attorney W. I.

Under existing law all works of art produced 100 years prior to the time of importation are permitted free entry.

'FOSTER SEES WAR IN NAVY CUT STUDY “Boover-](lcdonlld Discussions Only Camouflage, Communist Leader Declares. By the Associated Press. TORONTO, October 10.—William Z. | Foster, Communist leader in the United | States, in a speech last night, asserted | | that the Hoover-Macdoaald naval re- | duction discussions were only camou- | | flage for war preparations. He addressed a meeting arranged by the Industrial Union Needle Trade | Workers of Canada, held outside the city limits, The chairman explained that since a disturbance in Queen's | Park last Summer police had prevented ;o-culed communistic open-air meet- ings. “The war danger,” Foster said, “is developing because of competition be- tween Great Britain and the United States in world markets. It is necessary for the capitalists to still objections of the masses against war. They set afloat capitalistic peace maneuvers, the Kel- logg pact and the peace conferences. But the preparation for war goes on just the same. The American lera- tion of Labor will prove to be a tool in developing this war situation. It fol- lows the program of imperialism.” ‘The American Federation of Labor is holding its annual convention in Toronto. Woman to Ini;: African Hunt.
