Murray has promised to coll out on strikeail but the 14 fabricating companies which have agreed to his free pension and insurance de- mands.

Those demands were revised last month to fit the recommendations of a presidential fact-finding board. United States Steel Corporation and other steel makers refused to accept the board's suggested peace formula. for company-financed pens- ion and insurance programs costing 10 cents more an hour for each worker.

Lewis and soft coal operators from the northern and western mines had more words here today and recessed until next Tuesday. without progress in their strike talks. Tho same recess was taken by southern operators, who will resume their negotlat‘ at Blue- fleld, W.Va. next Tuesday.

lustlest assault on the raises 'ves came from Angus Mac- Innis (COF-Vanoouvor East) who said "surely this is the wrong end to start improving tho standard of living of our people." When "hun- dreds of thousands of Canadians" were living on $1.000 a year or less he had to oppose such a proposal.

Local Entertainer l Steals Show Al Hospital Bazaar

Tho singing and imitations of Loith Sweeney last night stole the show at tho Armcuries as another large crowd choked through the turnstiles for the fifth successive night to partake of the amuse- ments at the annual Charlottetown Hospital, Bazaar.

Young Leith was st his best as ho sang such favorites ss “Clancy Lowered the Boom" and "I Had A Hat". And the boom was lowered but few had hats as the crowd repeatedly encored the talented performer.

The amusement booths were well crowded and considerable difficulty was encountered by late- comers trying to play the Crown and Anchor wheel. The chocolate wheel appeared to be s big favor- ite and several were seen with more than one box of chocolates while others shook their heads and tore up their tickets.

Another novelty was the rabbit race. Although sll the rabbits did not seem to put their maximum effort into the run for the carrots they proved an interesting attrac- tion.

There were also the bingo gam- es and the usual displays, all building up to the climax tonight when the lotteries will be drawn and more top notch entertainment provided.

Prize winners last night were: Mrs. Jack Pollard, 55 Upper Prince Street. s. motor rug; Miss Joseph- ine Kays, 88 Pownal Street, a lady's variety set; Mr. Percy Lavitt, 225.Water Street, chicken dinner; Mrs. Frank Doiron, 27 Weymouth Street, a gold cushion; Rev. W. Simpson, S. D. U., a white cat cushion; Leo Doiron, 29 Pass- more Street, a sheepskin rug; Mr. Frank MacDonald, 102 School St, a luncheon set; Mrs. Bernard Hughes, 241 Prince St.. a blanket lotteried by the Junior league.

lican Party and war proffteers.

They said the Communist Party would continue ‘despite “the infa- mous verdict of this Hitler-like trial . . . ."

Whether the verdict would give the Government a. lever to virt- ually outlaw tho party remained to be seen.

For tho first two months of tho trial. perhaps the longest ‘ ’ ol criminal case in history, the do- fence argued that tho cards were stacked against it. Negroes and other minorities had little chance to get on the jury, they said.

Today it was s. Negro, Mrs. Thelma, Dial, who pronounced their fate.

She lod tho jury into tho crowd- od, tense courtroom after seven hours of deliberation. Tho case went to the eight women and four men yesterday afternoon.

Defondsuto

The

The 1.1 defendants sro:

Eugene Dennis, 44, national soc- retsry of the Communist Party in America; Gus Hail. 59, Ohio state chairman; Henry Winston, so, na- tional trganizationol secretary; John Gates. 36, editor of the Daily Worker, Communist newspaper; Benjamin J. Davis, Jr. 46, city councilman in New York.

Carl Winter, 4.3, Michigan state chairman; Jacob Stachel, d, na- tional educational director; John B. Williamson, 46, national Inbor secretary; Robert Thompson, 34, New York State chairman; Irving Potash, 47, vice president of the International Fur and feather Workers Union; Gilbert Green, 43, Illinois State chairman.

Judge Medina, 61-year-old judge, thanked the jury and warned its members against discussing the caso. _

Then, as tho jury filed out,

Judge Medina turned on tho fivo lawyers and Dennis, who acted as his own lawyer. Tho patience that he had shown during the long, bitter trial still was with Judge Medina. But the resentment he had built up against the defence tactics was apparent. He told the lawyers they delib- erately had tried to cause "delay and confusion so as to make the trial impossible, to provoke an in- cidont to result in a mistrial or to impair my health."

Lawyers Sonlnool

Then, one by one, ho sentenced the men to jail. The lawyers and their sentences:

Harry Sachsr of New York, six months. I-is defended Davis. Gates and Potash.

Richard Gisdstein of Son Fran- cisco, six months. Ho acted for Thompson and Hall.

George W. Corckott, of Detroit, four months. Ho represented Sta- chel and Winter.

Louis McCabe of Philadelphia, S0 days. Ho acted for Winston. Abraham Issormsn of Newark, NJ, four months. He was tho lawyer for Williamson and Greo . Dennis also got six months. Tho sentencing, without any preliminaries. apparently surprised and stunnod tho defence lawyers. Tho l1 defendants were indicted in July, 1048. and bmlht to trial last Jan. 11. Tho government charged that they rscrostod tho Communist Party in 1040 as sn instrument to advocoto tho violent overthrow of tho government.
