Foster today faced a Severe cross examination by attor- nheys prosecuting him on charges of violation of the Michigan syndicalist | against the archbishop and the vicar | law. At the opening of court, Prosecutor Foster with regard to his activities during the rafiroad shopmen’s strike last summer. The defendant told of making «|» speaking tour thru the West during the strike and addressing railroad men. “There were some trains stalled in the desert, were there not?” Smith asked. Foster hesitated a moment and re- plied: “T understand there were.” Frank P. Walsh, chief defense at- torney for Foster, objected to that line of testimony. Smith-informed the court that he wanted speech he made at Ogden. “I desire to show that Foster, in addressing the raflroad men, urged “them to desert their ns and to resort to other violence,” Smith argued.
