0 - erty in Russia was eharasteriled as "just a_ stage play of therecret police" by Allan Moukhouse, Brit- ish engineer, whose arrest in Moe- cow was one of last year's sensa- tions- _

Mr. Monkhouse boarded the

Duchels of Atnoll Saturday evui- lns. retiirning_to England after a lecture tour in the United 'States and Canada.

“When the Russian government

realised what a mistake had been made, they interfered and st- tempted to put a stop to the trial," the Metropolitan Vickers engineer said.

"Russia is making every effort to

progress but to get the pro- grammes through they find them- selves far removed from Commun- is|1'i'o1-igiifally pla;_1ned;" _‘hc continued. As a. result of the trial he was banned from the Soviet _Unions-for tive yeeu.-_-__-_~ - _

"'l"hc Russian government is

situation is bad." hé said. ' " `I-Ip expressed-the belief that-the collective farm -sysicm -was proving it "distinct failure." -7 ' `_

“When you try to force a peas- ant on a farm, and he doesnt want to go. well, what can you expect," he asked.

The Nova. Sootians. Mr. Forsyth

continued, had been given to \m~ derstand they would be able to be home for Christmas but if the judge agreed to the demands of

tm mgecution they would ian- guish Jail instead- "Just how the accused, complete strangers in llcfitreal-none' of whom knows personally or by reputation the principals arraigned this moming _ (the Bmnfmans) could possibly raise bail in a few hours, I fail to see."

Defence counsel a1s0_challeuged

the jurisdiction of the court on the ‘grounds the accused should have been arraigned before _ihe Nova Scotia courts. Chief Judge Per- rault _dismissed this plea as irrele- vant. '

Finally, after Mr. Pbrsyth per-

sonally held himself as responsible “as I can" for the appearance of accused, Mr. Penveme agrccd to their being released on parole un- til Frlday when they must produce bail or go to jail.

The lengthy triple-barrelled in-

The incident brought angry out-

The Saar Commission author- ities were requested to detormlne whether any charges will grow out of the violent attack by a Nall disciplinary band _upon Captain Je/:nies Justice, and 'his companion, the Earl of Aylesford.

The investigation will include

examinatloii of a complaint by Prince f~I_ub_e_rt\ls Von `_Lowen.lteln, s German, eigile, that he had been insulted by_ British officers in a cafe when Captain Arthur Helms- ley of England, the chief of the Baar civil police, was present.

Germans, it was revealed tonight, have been taken into custody by sec- ret police in raids on public -baths and Berlin bars in a new "Purse" of immoral elements, chiefly directed at the storm troops.

The raids began some 10 days ago,

men of all ages belnz taken into cus- toch' for questioning not onw about their sexual habits but concerning their political affiliations.

At least four baths and bars, two

of them in fashionable sections of the Capital, have been raided. The police activity sharply recalled the situation which fumished Hitler with ons reason for his "blood cleansing" of the storm troops last June.

(By Everett Graeme. Canadian Press Staff Writer) (Copvrinit, 1034, By 'rho canadian Press) VANOUUVIIR.. Dec. i'I-Three shots that shattered the peaceful- nsas of a South Vancouver resi- dential district on a Saturday night four years ago, claimed the life of an elderly Vancouver wo- man, seriously wounded her hus- band. andstarted police on an uin- successful manhunt that extended from British Columbia to Call!- ornia.

Police are still searching for the

slwera of Mrs. Rod Perrin, fatally shot Jan. 5, 1930, as sho wrestled with a robber who had wounded her husband during an attempted holdup. It was a trazis climax to a happy evening spent with re- united friends at a community dance. A few minutes before leav- ing the dance for home, Mrs. Per- rin received a telephone cali from an unknown man who asked when she was leaving, then hung up.

A few-minutes later the Perrin!

drove up to their garage in the

can'ying $32, the proceeds from the dance to be turned over to a char-I ity. When Mrs. Perrin got out to open the garage doors a masked man stepped out of the shadowsl and ordered her to hand over her- money. She protested and was struck down with blows about the lead with a gun. Mr. Perrin Jump- Sd out and started to his wife's aid. The robber, after striking him re- peatedly, fired twice, one shot striking Perrin in the side. ‘ As her husband fell, Mrs. Perrin

grasped the bandit about the knees. Twisting around the gun- ‘- man _fii-_ed at her, the bullet enter-i ing near' her shoulder and ranging" downward. _ _ Coolly ejectlng three shells, one

of which had misfired, the gunman slipped away in the darkness be- fore aroused neighbors arrived. Mrs. Perrin died in hospital 13 days later. '

Not 'a single clue was found by

police- The P_errins, from their hospital beds, could give little de- scription of the gunman. owing to the darkness and his mask. It was' evidently some one who had known they would be carrying the dance money.

Suspect after suspect was picked

but released after lengthy ques- tioning. The search extended to Califomia where Vancouver offl-3 cers, working in conjunction with- California authorities. picked up a man and brought him back for trial. He was later released lm- cause of insufficient evidence and the case remains as unsolved on

the police blotter. _
