W t f ' I ' questioning a few hours after Trotsky died. In his first statement Jackson said he decided to kill Trotsky after being "disillusioned" by the Russian's recently expressed political views. They added that Jackson was not a Belgian, as he claimed, but an American citizen formerly of New York City. Police also detained a woman listed as Sylvia Agaloff of Brooklyn, N. Y.. whom they said was Jackson's sweetheart, but whom Trotsky's associates said they thought was Jackson's wife. She said she was unaware of any assassination plot and wept as she recalled she had intro duced Jackson to Trotsky. She said she was a sister of a for mer secretary of the exiled Russian. Funeral plans were uncertain. Some of Trotsky s aides said burial "very likely" would be In Mexico City, but definite plans had not been made. In New York, James Cannon, secretary of the socialist work ers party in the United States and mentioned by certain Trotsky followers as likely new head of the Fourth International said: "We plan to hold the funeral here to give the working peo ple of New York an opportun ity to show their reverence for the memory of this great leader nd their hatred and contempt for Stalinism."

(IP) The senate immigration commit tee has said that it was "not in terested in the alien involved" when it recommended recently that Harry Bridges, west coast labor leader, be Investigated by the Justice department rather than deported immediately. The committee made known Its views yesterday in a report to the senate explaining its pro posal to substitute un investiga tion for a house approved bill calling for summary deportation of the Australian-born alien. "The fate of the Ind. vicinal alien is not important lis com pared with the fate of all of our people who might ultimately be injured thereby," the commit tee said. "We In America Inherit a treasure. That treasure is not In gold or land or other resources. It is the treasure of liberty. The right to be free, the right to think and speak, and to print, and to worship theso are our Inheritances. He who strikes at them strikes at our democracy itself." Rome, Aug. 22.

Aug. 22. P) The reason this government re fused to change the course of the army transport American Legion despite a German warn ing was related by President Roosevelt today to Senator Bone (D-Wash), who charged in the; senate this week that war had i been risked In the matter be cause of stubborncss. Sumner Welles., undersecre tary of state, also was present when the president received Bone in the living qusrters ofi the White House. Stephen Early, the president's press secretary, described the situation to reporters as a case of one nation having said cer tain waters were mined and an other having said certain other waters were mined. The number of refugee Amer icans brought home by the transport from Petsamo. Fin land, was nearly double the number which had been expec ted originally, Early said, and no food for the additional ones was to be had in Petsamo. The route taken was probably the most direct one, the secretary said. He reiterated that the decis ion regarding the route that was followed was reached on the recommendation of the army and navy high command. Asked by newsmen whether the president's explanation had satisfied him, Bone declared: "My only Interest waj to keep the ship from being blown up. God knu what miijht happen if it were sunk. I don't know anything about the minefields against which different coun tries warned." 1 vVh W&&M I lieii). local agem lor the concern.
