DENISON FILES 'BRIEF IN RUM CASE Contends Justice Gordon Properly Sustained Demur- rer to Indictment. Counsel for Edward E. Denison, Rzfi resentative from Illinois, have filed the District Court of Appeals a brief supporting their contention that Justice Peyton Gordon properly sustained their demurrer to an indictment charging Dennison with the possession of a trunk containing lnu!xll?ut,lni| liquor at his office in the House Office Building in January, 1829. Attorneys E. Hilton Jackson, Everett Sanders and Willlam E. Leahy call the attention of the appellate tribunal to the fact that since the action of Justice Gordon the United States attorney has found it necessary to amend the form of indictment in liquor cases to include certain “identifying circumstances which are so strikingly absent from the indictment” in the Denison case. It is also pointed out by counsel for Denison that the Government con- tends that the indictment against Deni- 50 was in the form of those established by precedent. “This court,” counsel say, “is not concerned with upholding the validity of any precedent set by the district attorney’s office where defend- ants have mistakenly gone to trial on these defective indictments and have failed to assign the defect as an error on appeal to this court.” The contention is made that the dictments fails to meet the constil tional requirements to advise the fendant with such particularity that he may prepare his defense and in case of an acquittal ay plead former jeopardy if an attempt be made to re-indict on the same state of facts. This failure may not be cured, it is claimed, mere- 1y with the right to the accused to ask ! for a bill of particulars, The ' Government is represented by TUnited States Attorney Leo A. Rover and Assistant United States Attorney Neil Burkinshaw, who explain that it was necessary to change the form of in- dictment after the rdon ruling so that the prosecution of liquor cases might proceed pending the action of the Court of Appeals in the Denison case.

Two additional long-distance tele- phone cables connecting Washington with Baltimore and Richmond = are filled with nitrogen gas to reduce the interruptions to service.

B the Associated Press. RENO, Nev., December 20.—Thomas F. Manville, jr, a millionaire heir of the Manville estate, was divorced here today by Lois Arline McCoin Man- ville, former stenographer to the .late Thomas F. Manville, president of the Johns-Manville Co. Mrs. Manville, . second wife of the younger Manville, won her divorce on BY JUNIUS B. WOOD. By Radio to The Star. MOSCOW, U. 8. 8. R., December 20. —S8ix terms in prison and two stretches of exile in Siberia under the Czar stand out in the comparatively short career of Viacheslav Mikialovitch Molotov, newly appointed chairman of both the ’counfll of people’s commissars, or the Soviet cabinet, and the Union of Soviet | Socialist Republics. The new premier of the Soviet Union | stands high in Communist as well as government circles, being a member of the Presidium of the Third Interna- tionale and the powerful Political Bu- reau of the Central Committee of the All-Union Communist party, of the Pre- sidium of the Central Executive Co mittee of the Russian Soclalist Feder ated Soviet Republic and of the Pre- sidium of the All-Union Central Exec- utive Committee of the Union of So- viet Socialist Republics. He is the third premier of the Soviet Union, Alexel Rykov, who has just resigned, having succeeded Nikolai Lenin on the latter’s death in 1924, Stalin Again Supreme. Announcement of Mr. Molotov's ap- pointment was made last night and the morning newspapers, such as appeared before noon today, carried a formal no- tice, signed by Mikhall Kalenin, presi- dent, and Avel Enukidze, secretary, of the Presidium of the All-Union Central Executive Committee of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. As far &s appearances go, there is not a sugges- tion that the Plenium of the All-Union Communist party, which for a week has been in executive session at the Krem- lin, has anything to do with this im- portant change in the government. ‘The Plenium, according to the tabu- lated announcement given the public, is discussing such national affairs as the collective farms and industrializa- tion, while the differences between the Stalin and Rykov ups are not men- tioned. The result shows that Mr. Stalin. is again supreme and another old leader passes from the stage, with Leon Trotzky, Gregory Zinoviev and others, though with a voluntary ges- ture, the Presidium decision being worded: “It is decided to satisfy the request of Comrade Rykov and remove him from his office.” His Name Means Hammer. Mr. Molotov was born in the village of Kukarka, now named Sovietsk, in Viatka Province, February, 1890. His name was then Skiabin, his father a minor clerk. After he joined the party in 1906 at Kazan, whence Mr. Rykov had been exiled five years previous, he took the name of Molotov, meaning “hammer.” As his party activities in- creased, imprisonments and exiles fol- lowed. In party organizations Mr. Molotov has invariably occupied the responsible position of secretary, being secretary of the Ukraine party in 1920 and later secretary of the Central Committee of the All-Union Communist party, when he came to Moscow from the provinces in 1921. Though a member of the Pre- more days--- -CATLINS GIFTS sidium of the Central Executive Com- mittee of the Russian Socialist Fed- erated Soviet Republic since 1927, he has never been a commissar, either -in the Russian Socialist Federated Soviet blics or the Union of Soviet So- cialist Republics.
