Dies Says State Department
Should Consider Testi
mony N. Carolina Convict
Washington, Oct. 20. (AP)
Chairman Dies (D., Tex.) of the
house un-American committee
suggested today the state de
partment should look into fut
ure relations with Russia be
cause of testimony that a com
munist labor organizer, fleeing
a North Carolina prison sen
tence, found refuge in the Soviet
Union.
The testimony was given by
Fred Erwin Beal, at present a
North Carolina convict brought
here to tell about various labor
disturbances in which he said
he participated a decade ago.
Reds Financed Trip
Resuming today the testimony
he started Wednesday, Bcal said
the communist party had fi
nanced a trip he made to Russia
while he was a fugitive from
justice and he entered Russia
on a false passport with the
knowledge of Soviet officials.
"It seems to me that this
ought to cause considerable con
cern down at the state depart
ment about our future relations
with Russia," Dies commented.
Beal is serving from 17 to 20
years for conspiracy to murder
Police Chief O. F. Aderholt dur
ing the 1929 Gastonia, N. C,
textile strike, which he said he
helped organize.
The witness testified Wednes
day that he made one trip to
Russia in 1930, while on appeal
bond, with money and encour
agement from communist party
headquarters in New York. He
did not like conditions there and
so returned to this country early
in 1931. he added.
Meantime, he resumed today,
the North Carolina court refused
his appeal, his $5,000 bail bond
was forfeited, and he became a
fugitive.
Return Urged
When he returned from his
first trip to Russia, Bcal said,
"the communist party ganged
up" to get him to go back.
He mentioned William Z. Fos
ter, present party chairman,
Leon Josephson, whom Beal
identified as "a communist party
OGPU man in this country,"
and George Maurer of interna
tional labor defense as persons
who argued he should return.
"Josephson was of the opinion
that they should have shot me
before I left," Beal said.
All three offered persuasive
arguments to him, he said, but
he remained in the United
States until September. 1931.
While here, he testified, he
stayed a short time at the camp
of Roger Baldwin of the Civil
Liberties- Union with the un
derstanding he would go to
North Carolina to give himself
up.

Wall St. Report
New York, Oct. 20. AP
With European battlers appar
ently pulling their punches, war
buying faded in today's stock
market and recently buoyant
leaders took a rest behind small
minus signs.
While a few merchandising,
utility and specialty issues man
aged to put on a moderate rising
performance of their own, clos
ing prices generally were on the
declining side for fractions to
around a point.
Transfers approximated 8U0,
000 shares, or more than 300,000
under the previous day's aggre
gate. Wall Street seemed more con
fused than pessimistic as news
from overseas indicated both
sides might be "digging in" or
were holding their fire while
awaiting a concrete peace move
from one neutral source or an
other. Business developments, in
cluding dividends and corpora
tion earnings statements re
mained as a supporting market

Hyde Park, N. Y., Oct. 20.
(A P) President Roosevelt
took the position today that the
limits of United States' terri
torial waters are flexible, vary
ing from three to hundreds oi
miles, depending on the circum
stances under which the limi '
are created.
In the case of belirrferent sub
marines, which have been
barred from American ports or
territorial waters, the president
said at a press conference that
the limit of such waters was
three miles.
In the case of rum runners
in prohibition days, he said it
was 150 miles.
The president did not answer
directly a question whether
there was any possibility of
placing restrictions on surface
ships similar to those imposed
on submarines.
He said he did not think the
two were analogous that it
was like trying to add apples
and pears, which were different
things.

to handle 40.000 board feet a
day. The West Scio sawmill will
also resume operations.
