The Connecticut- congressman. who studied the Italian situation at first hand earlier this year. said highest military and nayal author- ities had told him Russiais armies could overrun all Europe in two weeks.

Testifying before the Senate lforeigvn Affairs group, John Foster Dulles said the United States will be pouring its contemplated billions in relief down the drain unless it takes the lead in creating a new, economically-united Europe.

urt.

Chief Justice Farris, before pass- ing sentence; condemned their acts, which they said were com- mitted to "awaken our brothers" to the danger of a third world war. He said their pleas ‘of love cf mankind and brotherhood were not borne out by their actions.

Defiant and unswerving in their belief that the arson-filled reign of terror which swept the pastoral Kootenay-Bcundary dis- trict was necessary, they refused counsel, one Doukhobor crying “My lawyer is Christ."

All members of the radical Sons of Freedom sect, they refused to swear on the mble, which ‘they view as merely the printed word of God, basing their oath on bread, salt and water, symbols of the Doukhobor religious belief.

The convictions came less than, a week before a. special commis- sion is slated to reconvene in Grand Forks, B. 0., inquiring in- to the strife which has caused 10 deaths and $1,000,000 damage in the last 40 years.
