S - " New Activity Expected Communist Trial. in PROOF UP TO U'REN Main Testimony I.ikrl.v to Be Given by Oter, Fry and Hurst on Purpose of Tarty. Tomorrow will see the first real ac tivity on the part of the defense of Karl W. Oster. Fred VT. Fry and Claud Hurst, communist labor party lead ers, on trial in tne circuit court iui i violation of the criminal syndicalism i act. J Though the defense formally opened) Friday morninif. Attorney W. S. U'Ren. appearing for the trio of radicals, took; ill suddenly, after three lines of de- : fense had been battered by the prose- : cution and ruled out as incompetent' evidence by Circuit Judge Morrow, necessitating an abrupt adjournment, until Monday. For this reason the chief reliance of the defense has not been disclosed. Proof I I'p to I 'Hen. It is expected that the main testi mony will be civen by the men under indictment. There is little new com- ! munist labor party literature which j can be introduced as evidence by the ' defense for the reason that moet of the pamphlets and other propaganda in use by the party in Oregon was! seized by the state and federal authorities and already has been placed in evidence by the prosecution. The issue is squarely up to U'Ren to prove that the communist labor party is a peaceful organization seek ing to revolutionize the government of the 1'nited .States through the bal lot rather than by force of arms. Membership of the "defendants in the society was admitted Friday after the . state had established the fact beyond reasonable doubt. J'rnKrriition Taken Five Dajfc Though the ' prosecu: ion took five days to put in its case, it is not be lieved that the defense will take so long. The state put in as evidence one of the most complete sets of radical literature in existence on this coast, including numerous I. AW W. publications which were introduced on the theory , that the I. V. W. are -indorsed and approved by the commun ist labor party. ... - Thus far tne prosecution nas intro- duced numerous publications 'of the ; communist labor party which appear I to support the Contention that over- throw of the government by violent ' mass action is advocated, a crime 1 under the laws of Oregon. j I. W. W.. Trial In DrlayVd. . District Attorney Evans and Earl F. j' Bernard, deputy district attorney, j have conducted the prosecution. - i The communist labor party case: mav friterfere with the trial of -6 i I. W. . scheduled to begin 1n the local courts on Tuesday next. eoige F. Vanderveer, attorney for the 1. W. W. tried at Montesano for the murder of American Legion men at Centralia. Wash., is -.expected to ap pear for the defense. It is under stood that he has asked for a post ponement to permit him to recuperate from the strain of the Washington case, and because of the conflict with the present trial, the district attorr ney may recommend that Presiding Circuit Judge McCourt grant the request.
