B the Associated Press. | BERLIN, July 2—The Moabit Court today assessed fines against two Con- fessional Synod (Fundamentalist) | preachers who oppose domination ol‘ the Protestant church by the Nazis. | ‘Two other defendants were acquitted. | The Rev. von Arnim-Luetzlow and the Rev. Herr Niesel were fined 600 marks each (about $240) with the al- ternative of 30 days in jail in case of non-payment. The Rev. Gerhard Ja- cobi, pastor of the fashionable Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church in Berlin, | was acquitted with a Confessional at- | torney, Herr Ehlers, on the prosecutor’s recommendation. All were accused of violating a de- cree which forbids the reading from the pulpit of the names of persons quitting the church. The charge was similar to that which yesterday caused the imprison- | ment of the Rev. Martin Niemocller, | most outspoken of the protestant an- tagonists of Nazi church policy. The prosecutor, however, demanded acquittal for the Rev. Mr. Jacobi and the Rev. Mr. Niesel. He asked im- | prisonment for one month for the Rev. Mr. Von Arnim-Luetzlow and two months for the church attorney, | at lawyer named Ehlers. There were reports that police sus- pected Niemoeller of arranging a meeting at which it had been decided to continue such public readings next Sunday. The official German news agency declared Niemoeller “for a long time” had “carried on agitation in church services and lectures and slandered leading personalties of the state and the (Nazi) party in order to disquiet the population. His utterances were a steady topic in the foreign anti-| German Press.” Niemoeller had ridiculed the Nazi church policy repeatedly from the pulpit, In recent sermons he deride attempts to substitute for Christian repentance a “heroic” attitude toward life,” as though there were only one possible attitude for Germany to as- sume today, namely that of Pro- metheus or Lucifer—the pose of a de- flant Titan.” ‘The pastor, a World War veteran, ‘was first officer of a submarine which sank 55,000 tons of enemy shipping. ] Hearing (Continued Prom First Page.) i tures showed none of the marchers carrying anything other than pla- cards, as they pressed closely about a | police captain. It had been testified | that some of the marchers were carrying clubs. A view of the repulsed strikers throwing stones at the police was shown after the previous hostilities. In several sequences, bleeding men and women were shown being loaded | into patrol wagons. No wounded offi- cers were shown, although several ‘were pictured smiling after hostilities ceased. | Pastor Accuses Police. Nearly 500 hushed persons, includ- i ets did cross this ing many members of Congress and Chicago police officials, crowded the Senate caucus room as the picture was shown twice, once in slow motion. As the committee returned to the taking of testimony, Rev. Charles B Fisk of the South Shore Community Church, an observer of the riot, came to the stand. Claiming he had been arrested after the riot and held over night before being released with apoligies and with- out any charges, Fisk told of seeing men pursued and beaten from the rear by police and of being loaded into a crowded patrol wagon in which were at least four ‘‘desperately weunded” men. “Brutality Inexcusable.” “The police brutality was absolutely inexcusable and unnecessary,” Fisk said. “In one case a man fully 100 yards from the police was cut down by a bullet. In another, two policemen pursued a youth at least 50 yards be- fore catching him and beating him severely. There was no resistance possible.” Frank McCullough, attorney and industrial relations secretary of the | Council for Social Action of the Con- gregational Christian Churches, fol- | lowed Fisk to tell of seeing several policemen standing in an alley and firing directly at the fleeing strikers. McCullough, an observer like Fisk, i | sisted the gunfire was not “in the ai Before the film was shown, the committee was told by George A. Patterson of the S. W. O. C. that police drove people out ef their Republic Steel plant on the night of May 26. when the steel strike began. Patterson, among 23 arrested that night, said the police entered sev- eral houses close to the plant gates. This was done, he said, despite as- surances that picketing would be al- | lowed across the railroad tracks from the plant and the fact the no pick- “boundary.” Patterson's story was substantiated by other union witnesses. As Patterson left the stand Lippert took the stand to establish the cir- cumstance of his taking of strike pictures, not only on May 30, but on previous days. In response to questioning., Lippert sald the film missed no more than seven seconds of events at inception of the actual hostilities. Claims have | been made that the picture missed im- portant sequences at the beginning of | the violence. Just before the showing, Chairman | La Follette requested Chicago Police Commissioner James Allman and Capts. John C. Prendergast, James Mooney and Thomas Kilroy to take | seats directly in front of the screen. When this morning's hearing began, John B. Riffe, S. W. O. C. district director, was called to tell of a con- | ference with Capt. Mooney at the be- ginning of the Republic strike. Riffe said he pledged orderly con- duct by the strikers if given fair treat- ment by the police. Mooney told him, he said, that pickets would not be Broiled Maine ‘7 ’5‘: Lobster Luncheon ___ Air_Conditioned.

Munney; told him: “We're going to run this whether you like it or not you cheep again I'll have your head busted.” Shortly thereafter, he continued, he was arrested along with the 22 other strikers, charged with disorderly con- stayed across the plant duct and illegal assembly and fined $1. | “In all my experience in labor mat- ters, the pickets of Republic Steel were allowed reuer privileges than any I've | Riffe said. “We didn't have any idea of going | through the plant gates.” he added emphatically. “If the gates had been open and unguarded, we wouldn't have gone in."” Police Contradicted. In response to questioning by Sena- | tor Thomas, Democrat, of Utah, Riffe declared the marchers numbered about 1,500, of whom about 15 to 25 per cent were women. Police claimed the crowd numbered from 2,500 to | 3,000. Riffe claimed just before he left the stand that the only clubs he saw in the hands of the Memorial day marchers were the sticks on which banners and placards were attached. Gus Yuratovic, one of the strikers, And if| ‘ police officials concerning events lead- | ing up to the shootings were flatly | contradicted by a surprise witness | placed on the stand yesterday aft- | ernoon in the person of Ralph | Beck, Chicago Daily News repor(er.\ | who had been on strike duty for nearly a week preceding the riot. Beck began his testimony by say- ing the police detail had been fed in | | the steel plant for more than a week; | that many of them were armed with short ax handles furnished by the company, and that the company aug- mented its plant guards by arming nearly 100 workers in the wire d€~’r partment and massed the entire force | near plant gates on the day of the Tiot Police testified they ate at the| plant only one day and that they re- ceived no extra equipment from the plant. Beck then said he was in the strike crowd when it assembled and that no mention was made of getting into the plant proper, that ‘they merely decided to establish mass picketing and that no more than 35 of their number car- ried clubs or weapons of any kind.

He testified that police had repeatedly broken up picket lines between the calling of the strike and | the shooting, May 30. They ignored | published statements by Mayor Edward | Kelly that peaceful picketing should | be permitted, he said. | Yuratovic concedea that 10 or 15 of the marchers carried clubs, but in- sisted they picked them up on the | field because they feared they would | be attacked by police Among those to be called later is| Mrs. Lupe Marshall, smartly-dressed Mexican-American, who told com- | mittee investigators one of the ! wounded strikers bled to death in| her lap in a crowded patrol wagon as police refused to give him emer- gency aid.

Opponents of the original bill con- tend the new measure should be re- ferred to the Judiciary Committee, which studied the original bill, but did not investigate alternate proposals. The foes expressed confidence the committee would bury the Robinson bill, at least for the remainder of this session. Administration forces fought this procedure.
