Five Year Sentence ' For ilarris

UITAWA. Jan. 27- (OP)—'I'l-le 16th of 18 trials arlsi out of Canada's espionage pro a ended today in a five-year prison sell- tence for Dr. Henry Harris, a 54- ycar-old native of New York and a son of Russian parents.

County Judge A. Gordon Mc- Dougall. a. stocky. white-haired jurist who has conducted about half of those trials, found the Toronto optometrist, guilty of two charges c-f conspiracy. one to ob-

forge false passports contrary to the Official Becreta Act. and in vio- lation of the Criminal Code. Harris is expected to appeal against g, conviction based largely on what Judge McDougall called "striking coincidences" between Russian Embassy documents and other Crown evidence and the accused's very “weak" explanation of out-of-town trips with Sam Carr. fol-mei- national organizer of the Labor-Progressive party and alleged Russian agent.

In Canada some 2'! years, l‘ 5e- oame the ninth of the espionage accused to be sentenced to prison. Six of the accused have been acquitted and onc has been fined. The remaining two. both univor. sity professors. are Dr. Raymond Boyer of McGill and Prof. Israel Halperin of Queen's. Boyer's trial has been act for the February term of the King's Court Bench in Montreal but may be delayed. A tentative date of March 3 has been set for the speedy trial of Halperin here but it may be mov- ed forward if the appeal of Gar. don Lunan against his conviction is settled in time. Lumn 1s wanted as a witness but has declined to testify pending his appeal.

Judge McDougall, in delivering his judgment against Harris, said the Crown had produced evidence to link Carr with an apparently successful attempt to get a [3155 Canadian passport for a Russian
