Referring to MacDonald's confession, to which the prisoner stuck throughout the proceedings, Vishinsky declared {“MacDonald was much more eous ithan Thornton,” who repudia his Joriginal admissions. ! “MacDonald collected spy information ifor Thornton; through Gusey he organ- {ized the sabotage and paid the bribes, nid Vishinsky. “But he is cleverer han the others who tried to save their aces before their chiefs.” Charging the information these men ollected was not connected with the usiness of their firms, the Metropolitan Vickers Company of England, Vishlnfiky added “it was of another character.’ § It was spy information as under- ‘.tood by our law,” he said. 1 Defense Speeches Tonight. i In a five-hour conclusion to his sum- ymation, which was begun last night, Zthe prosecutor heatedly berated five of the %mons. openly accusing Thornton and Nordwall of being agents of the - British Secret Service. i~ Vishinsky inspired Cushny to make fan angry but shortlived retort to his Zsharp .

He summarized briefly “the systematic and consecutive wrecks” in electrical- energy equipment installed by the en- gineers, such as motors, generators, transformers, turbines, boilers and coal conveyors, at Zlatoust, Zulevka, Ivanovo, Baku and Moscow. “Five-Year Sabotage Plan.” oting lengthily from s report by tmqummr%msion of Soviet experts who investigated the damages, the prosecus tor said: “The English defendants may say the damage was caused by lack of care, but they know the real reasons. ‘There was a deliberate plan for intentional wrecking of these stations. There was no carelessness here. ¥ was nothing but _evil, conscious work of ubour. The damages to which he referred “as “a veritable five-year plan of sabot- age” occurred at varicus times between 1928 and 1932 at different stations. He pointed out that the Moscow sta- tion suffering damage served not only the Kremlin, the government buildings section, but important steel, cement and textile Iactcr‘lex in the city and sur- rounding regions. Vishinski asked in a tense voice: “Why did the sabotaging group con=- centrate on this plant? Because it had great importance in connection with Jour war industry. Similarly, the SZlatoust staticn served & munitions { plant and it also was important. §_“MacDonald ordered the disabling of { the boiler at Zlatoust according to & | systematic plan,” Vishinski added. ! “The prisoners expect to hear their ; fate tomorrow night or Wednesday. Prosecutor Lashes Britain, Vishinsky in winding up his case # described the trial of the Britons as “s i great class war between international ) forces, different worlds and different :ideas and principles.” ;" He lashed the actions of the British s government sirice the men have been { arrested and ridiculed the views of for- eign countries on what constituted ! crimes. : The pros&ution took & thrust at i capitalistic countries in comparing j1deas of wisat constitutes a bribe. ¢ “Our ideas of bribes are different ifrom those in foreign countries, where ithe theft of bread is a\crime and the itheft of a whole railroad is rewarded iwith the title of Senator,” he said. i “From the point of view of English Ecitizens, small gifts and evening parties are not crimes. Let Monkhouse, Thornton and the others distributing bribes to attract Soviet citizens on their side against the Soviet Union say that this is no gift. The responsibility of the forelgners is not so great as the responsibility of the Soviet employes, ut you (speaking to the British prison- rs) must realize you also will be held untable for your actions.” He said, however, that the Russians ¥deserved more serious penalties” than the British prisoners. Raps House of Commons. Vishinsky arraigned critics of the Soviet goyernment in the British House of Commons and called them “enemies.” “They are hysterical and have lost their self-control,” he said. “But they must understand that the abject and /nsolent demand of imperialists has met «resistance from a country of free peas- ;ants and workers.” He referred to Brit- ish attempts to have the men released from the charges. “Thornton, Monkhouse and Cushny isaid they could not be charged with .esplonage when they had only collected information dealing with the firm’s in- terests. We know what espionage imeans, and we demand that every for- ;eigner understand the term as it is un- rstood under Soviet law. “We have to thank England for one of our interpretations—the 1911 state ‘crets law, and also its law of 1920 de. fining the collection of secret informa- 2tion as directly against the safety of the ¥state.

HOUSE TO CONSIDER SHOALS PLAN SOON Speaker Rainey Tells Press Only,Report of Commit- tee Is Needed. By the Associated Press. Speaker Rainey predicted today the House wiil consideration of Presi- dent Roosevelt’s Tennessee Valley pro- gram before the week is out. “We will start its consideration as soon as the committee reports,” Rainey said at his press conference. Chairmah McSwain of the Military Committee has fixed tomorrow for final action on his bill to develop the Ten- nessee Valley in accordance with the President’s recommendations. Some of the m?ubum members plan’ strenuous opposition to giving the proposed Tennessee Valley Authority the right to bulld power tra: lines and manufacture fertilizer. These two issues twice have result- ed in vetoes of Muscle Shoals legisia- tion by Republican Presidents. But the t Republican minority is so small that McSwain was confident major aspects of the bill would remain vir- tually intact: Power Companies’ Plea. W. L. Willkle, president of the Com- monwealth & - Southern Corporation, Bower” corpanies ‘of the group in de- power ¢ of the group e~ mand that the proposed Tennessee Val- ley suthority not be empowered to build electric transmission lines. His position gained the support of Henry 1. Harriman, president of the gmbzr of Commerce of the United tates. Both the McSwain bill, and the Norris bill already approved by the Senate Agricultural Committee, would authorize the Government corporation to build its own transmission lines if necessary. Quantity production of fertilizer at the Shoals was assailed by Charles J. Brand, secretary of the National Ferti- lizer Association. The MeSwain bill authorizes the manufacture "of ferti- lizer in commercial quantities, but the Norris bill limits this feature to ex- perimenta] production. Judson King, director of the National Popular Government League and close associate of Norris, told the House Com- mittee that if the power companies “gtrip the cost of their transmission lines of all water and wind the Presi- dent will be willing to let them have the power.” McSwain’s view, after hearing both sides, was: “I don’t believe there will be any im- portant cl s made in the bill as in- troduced. course, there will be some minor amendments—I will recommend some myself. But they will deal chiefly with verbal, technical and clerical matters. “We will get the bill to the House ‘Tuesday if it's humanly possible.” ECONOMY THREATENS TUBERCULOSIS SCANDAL, DR.

This suit alleged the aluminum gom- pany fixed and maintained aluminum prices at an artificial level. Pointing out that neither it nor the Baush Company was a Connecticut cor- poration, the Aluminum Company had challenged the jurisdiction of the court. It declared if the Connecticut court could entertain the bill, it would be pos- sible for competitors and others to en- ter Federal courts in any State and de- mand such information. The Baush Company contended the court 1n which the Sherman anti-trust suit had it had full author- ity to require litigants to such suits to furnish information necessary for a verdict. Action of Court Upheld. The trial court ordered the Aluminum Company to furnish much of the in- formation which the Baush Company had requested. Its action was approved by the Second Circuit Court of Appeals which held the District Court had rightfully assumed jurisdiction.
