Turks' Foreign Minister
Calls at Kremlin Finnish
Envoy Awaiting Instruc
tions From Home Capital
Br WITT HANCOCK
MOSCOW. Oct. 13. W Amid re
ports some form of agreement would
be signed by Russia and Turkey
within the next day or two, the Turk
ish foreign minister, Sukru Saracoglu
wr i received In the Kremlin t 6
p. m. (6 a. m.. P.S.T.) today. ,
In the absence of any official com
ment from either side, observers be
lieved the prospective pact would
settle questions In relation to the
Black sea and the Dardanelles and
would define the attitude of each
nation toward the other In the cur
rent European war.
The impression ferew In diplomatic
circles here that an agreement was
imminent, as the Kremlin's talks
with the Turks caused Indefinite
postponement of further conversa
tions with the Finns.
Finnish Envoy Delays.
The Finnish envoy, Dr. Juho Kustl
Paaslklvl, who had planned to visit
the Kremlin again this afternoon,
visited the Soviet agricultural exhibi
tion Instead.
He might be asked to go to the
Kremlin later tonight, for resuming
the parley begun yesterday at Rus
sian invitation, but even the Finnish
legation was not informed whether
be was expected.
Paaslklvl was believed awaiting
general instructions from home be
fore proceeding further.
The Finnish position for dickering
with Russia was improved by diplo
matic backing of the United States,
Sweden, Denmark and Norway.
The Washington government and
the three Scandinavian countries In
effect urged Russia not to make de
mands upon Finland which might
endanger Russian-Finnish relations.
Turkish Resistance Seen.
The represents Ions were made yes
terday about the time Dr. Juho
Paaslklvl had hla first session with
Soviet leader.
' In diplomatic circles belief was
expressed on reason for the pro
longed stay In Moscow of the Turk
ish foreign minister was the possi
bility of Turkish resistance to some
of the Russian proposals.
While it seemed obvious the Finns
were willing to listen to Soviet pro
posals with a promise of relaying
them to the Finnish government, it
was Indicated at the same time Fin
land would not surrender to any
demands considered "extreme."

tiro existed as lata as 1932.
Earlier, Malkin. who said ha had
served a prison term for his part In
the 1926 furriers' union strltas In
New York, told the committee Arnold
Rothstein. slain New York gambler.
had loaned the communist-dominated
furriers' union about 1.750.000. some
of which went to New York policemen.
Malkin, Russian-born naturalized
American cltlwn. testified 100.000
was paid to policemen In a 17-week
period during the strike for keeping
away from the union's "sluggers."
Sent to sin sing
Malkin, who testified he was a
member of the communist party from
Its Inception In 1920 until 1936, said
he was sent to Sing Sing upon con
viction of felonious assault, growing
out of the furriers strike, in which
several persons were Injured.
The witness said these officers
were among those paid with Roth
steln's money:
Johnny Broderick. whom he iden
tified as "chief of the gangster
squad;" Jesse Josephs. Brodertck's
assistant, and Barney Rudltzky.
Malkin testified he disagreed with
the International labor defense over
Its conduct of his case and accused
that organization, for which he had
been a special organizer, of using
funds collected In his behalf for
communist purposes. I
Meanwhile, legality of the forma
tion of the Dies committee was chal
lenged In federal court In a demurrer
filed to an Indictment accusing
Fraser 8. Gardner of perjury in testi
mony before the committee In con
nection with the Silver Shirts, de
scribed as a fascist organization In
the United States.
Reds Take New Tack
Gardner's answer contended the
committee technically no longer
existed because It waa not appointed
In accordance with house rules at
the start of the seventy-sixth session
of congress last January.
Speaker Bankhead over-ruled the
same contention at that time.
Malkin said that after the ex
pulsion of Leon Trotsky from the
communist party, William Z. Poster,
American chairman, brought back
from Moscow in 1928 a new "party
line' by which the communists at
tempted to organize their own un
ions. That policy was changed In
i 1934. because of the success of the
A PL In organizing under section 7-A
of the NRA, to a policy of "boring
from within" the federation, he ex
plained.
The agency through which the
communist party organized its un
ions. Malkin said, was the Trade
Union Unity Council, of which he
was one of four organizers. Malkin
said these unions resulted from that
work: the Food Workers' union. I
Transport Workers' union. Hospital
Workers' league. Pharmascists' union.
Radio Workers' league, Furniture
Workers' Industrial union, Retail
Salesmen's union. Office Workers'
union. Newspaper Guild. Mirror Nov
elty Workers' union. Novelty Jewelry
Workers' union "and some others."
Reds Rule Unions
He said all were dominated by
communists and gave this descrip
tion of them:
Pood Workers: Now affiliated with
the A PL, with 40.000 to 45.000 mem
bers in New York City under the
name of the Hotel Trades Council;
led by J. Rubin and Mike Obermeyer
and controlled by communists.
Transport Workers: Led by com
munists, among whom Malkin named
Michael Quill, who. he said, was
a national director of the CIO: mem
bership 80.000 to 90.000, mostly In
New York City.
ttaaio worjters: une-imra oi me
executive board members of the com
munist party. Including the national
secretary of the CIO; membership
60.000 to 70.000.
Furniture Workers: Affiliated with
the A PL; membership of 30.000 to
40.000; two-thirds of the executive
board members of the communist
party.
Retail Salesmen : Affiliated with
the CIO and headed by Clarina
Mlchaelson; two-thirds of the execu
tive board members of the commu
nist party and the rest "fellow trav
elers." Office Workers: "Absolutely con
trolled by the communists" and di
vided Into two groups Bookkeepers,
Accountants and Stenographers un
ion (AFL) and the United Office
and Professional Workers of America
(CIO).
Kent Bright Pink
The latter group, Malkin added
inJUdes the unitea American Anisw.
led by Rockwell Kent, cut ne saia
he was "not sure that Rockwell Kent
Is a member of the communist party
but he Is very, very close." Matthews
declared, however, Kent had acktiowl
edged his party membership In ai
article In the New Masses.
When further questions developed
that Kent had been employed to
execute a (40.000 mural at the In
terl or department building Represen
tative Dempsey (D.. N.M.) objected
and Chairman Dies (D., Tex.)
nounced the matter would be
stricken as irrelevant. Representative
Starnes (D., Ala.) exclaiming he
could "see no reason why a govern-
ment agency should employ a com
munist to do anything." asked Dies
by what authority the matter would
j be stricken.
"I swum the committee gives me
authority to strike matter that
should not go Into the record." Dies
replied, and Starnes did not press
the point.
Malkin said ne helped organize
! the Newspaper Guild and knew It
was "strictly controlled by cotnmu-
i mat, among whom he named Hey
I wood Bruun, president, and Morris
; Watson, vice-president. He said that
Broun had withdrawn from the party
recently after his conversion to the
! Catholic church.

The finding of the second radio
graph to be reported to the United
States weather bureau here was made
known today. The Instrument, used
by the' bureau to chart meteorological
conditions, waa found by Edward
Kubll of the Applesate district in the
Cow creek section of the Sisklyous.
Ivan Brown, one of several cowboys
riding In the Sisklyous, first discov
ered the box but evidently believed
that It was some government device
not to be tampered with. Kubll next
found It and plans to send It to the
Fries company in Baltimore, accord
ing to the box directions, and receive
a reward.
Since the weather bureau started
sending up the small boxe3 about the
first of September there have been
only two reported found, the other
one having been located almost In
the town of Klamath Falls several
weeks ago.
Forty-five of the boxes have been
sent aloft since September 1, the
weather bureau said. A balloon car
ries them up, a parachute lets them
down.
The boxes are smalt and aluminum
colored, made of cardboard with a
metallic foil coating. They contain
delicate instruments for recording
meteorological data. A reward of
from $1 to 20 la given the finder
of each box, the size of the reward
depending on the condition of the
box. It was reported that the one
found by Mr. Kubll was not damaged
at all.

TO
neutrals to request them to mediate.
Hitler's appeal last Friday for
peace that "those peoples and their
leaders now speak up who are of a
similar i peaceful ) mind" was said
to have been an "official document" i
addressed alike to neutrals and bel-
llgerent. I
Now, authorized sources said. It
is up to neutrals to make their
voices heard on their own Initiative
and In consciousness of their respon
sibility and not because Hitler or
anv other belligerent should ask
them.
The official press release indicated
how completely "through" with
Chamberlain Germany considered
herself.
Insult To Germany
It called Chamberlain's speech "an
unheard of Insult to Germany" and
said that In it the prime minister
"did not represent the cause of the
people but the cause of a small
clique which sees Its task in war."
"From the experience of Versailles,"
the statement concluded, "the Gor
man people know what England's
will to annihilation can do and It
therefore knows the path It must
trod In order to foil this will of
Its enemies."
Dr. Dietrich, who talked Informally
with correspondents after he had
been with Hitler for several hours,
said he felt Britain had risked what
he called "her Insolent reply" through
Chamberlain only because she relied
upon the United States to support
her.
Dietrich declared Chamberlain's
speech to the house of commons
yesterday had shattered all other
hope of an armistice on the western
front before operations there begin
in earnest.
He indicated Germany was pre
pared to unleash her full might
against Great Britain and France
unless the United States stepped In
to bring the allies and Germany
together across the conference table.
