about man who, the lawyer declared
the witness told a friend. "looked big

he had seen such a man. but did not
know who he was or whether he had
written the articles in question.
A group of anxious listeners in the
court room, who hung on every word of
testimony until Justice Weeks closed
court at o'clock, were four Finnish
women, relatives of the two defendants.
Their faces and attitudes were in
marked contrast with those of the two
defendants, who take an impersonal
interest in the trial, following it with
the interest of spectators and laugh
ing with apparent unconccrn at the
lighter moments in the testimony. The
trial goes on to-day.

Senator Poindexter, in explaining his
resolution, said: II am convinced that
the increasing number of strikes is
based on a desire to overthrow our
government, destroy all authority and
establish communism. The question is
as to whether this element has suffi-
menace to the country as to make
cognizance by the government nee
cosary. l know there is a disposition
to ignore it. I think the government
should take vigorous steps to stamp
out anarchy and lawlessness. There
is grave danger that a government
will be overtnrown when it ceases to
defend itself This is no time to

officials"
Not Rejecting on Palmer
Mr.. Poindcxter disclaimed any in
tention of rejecting on the Attorney

tention and that of the country to the
situation that exists" he said.
To show the alarming rate at which
strikes are increasing, Mr.. Poindexter r
said that in January of this year there
were 105 strikes, in February $50, in
March luz, IN April 134, In May zig, in
June 245, in July 1854 and in August

Reference was made by Mr.. Poindex-

the men would be no better satisfied
than at present.
"This country is seething with vio-
