Rough Tactics
Against Ousted
5 Condemned
Confined from page 1

Lusk committee turned over to them as
evidence against the five Socialists.
Assemblymen Claessens, Orr. Walde-
man, Solomon and Dewitt, with their
counsel, spent the better part of to-
day going over plans for their de-
tense, They are considering bringing
the case before the Supreme Court in
a mandamus proce ling.
Ihe basis for sue. proceeding, if it
IS agreed on, is the refusal Of the As
sembly. paymaster to give them their
salaries as Assemblymen. All five made
formal application for their salaries,
but were told that Speaker Sweet had
issued instructions that they be not
paid
Whether mandamus will be sought
had not been determined when the con-
ference between the Socialist Assem-
blymen and their counsel ended to-day.
At the close of the conference Mr..
Hlllquit returned to Saranac Lake to
rest up. He had been there trying to
regain his health for more than a year
and half when the Socialists were
suspended. He was not in very good
shape when he took the Adirondack
Special this afternoon, but expresse d
the hope that he would be able to re-
turn within a week. Meantime he will
keep in daily touch with the trial.
Committeeman Quarrel
The Socialists have agreed to- offer as
evidence every platform, declaration,
constitution, manifesto or other Off
clal prOnouncement of tho Socialist
party in state and nation since the
day of its organization to the present
day. together with all public acts and
declarations OF Socialist officials
elected to Office.
"These documents will prove conclu-
sively," said Assemblyman Claessens,
acting as spokesman for the ousted So
clalist delegation, "that the Socialist
party is now, as it always has been, q
legitimate political party, operating in
the open on perfectly legitimate and
constitutional lines"
The suspended Socialists make no
the outcome Of the trial. All are Of
the opinion that, unless the members
of the Judiciary Committee now op-
posed to Chairman Martins conduct
on the trial remain steadfast, the COM
mittce Will return a unanimous report
urging their expulsion.
Five of the thirteen members Of the
committee have been persistently
quarreling with Chairman Martin over
his steam-roller methods. One of
them, Assemblyman William Evans, Of
New York, said:
"lt's perfectly safe to announce that
a fight is likely to be made against the
way this trial is being handled. This
feeling Is common to number Of US
in the committee. We have done some
plain talking in executive session.
II am not Socialist and have no
use for their doctrines, but | am a
strong believer in the square deal. But
If things keep on going the way they
have you can rest assured that the
minority IN the committee will make
formal protest next week
1t is on dissension in the committee
that the Socialists are pnning their
greatest faith. In the event of it's con-
tinuing a minority report recommend
ing the rcseating of the Socialists is
certain.

no announcement of plans for resump
ton of trade had been made by either
nation. 1t is not believed that any
definite method has been devised by
which trade could be resumed with the
civil population of Russia without run

into the hands of the Bolsheviki.
This government is willing, it was
stated, to permit shipments to be made
from this country to the cooperative

given that the goods will not come
under the control Of the Bolsheviki to
be used for military and political pur-
poses. 1t was said by an official Of the
State Department, however, that very
few requests for export licenses to
Russia have been sought.

CHANCE FOR MEN AS SCOUTS.

Frequently some men are heard to

scouts when / was a boy I'd like 10
have had their chance of having a real
gang and doing the things they do In
the outdoors"
No one is too old to be a scout.
There are 14,918 men serving as
scoutmasters, and 17,203 hold commits
sioDs as assistant scoutmasters. For
each of the 1854 troops organized
there is a committee Of three men
whose duty 1t is to back up the scout
master and assist the troop In every
possible manner.
There is a crying need for more
leaders, as there are thousands of
boys waiting to get into troops. If you
wish you had been scout, you can
at least lead the boys now to be
scouts. 1t will do you lot of good
yet, and also do the boys great
