JUDGE TAKES SLAM
At THE LEVER ACT
HOLD THAT THE FRIGHTENING
SECTION OF MEASURE rs
UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
Grants Injunction to Sugar Brokers
Restraining Federal Officials from
Issuing Warrants for Arrest of
Alleged Profiteers.

Philadelphia That section of the
Lever law, commonly known as the
food control BILL" which makes it an
offense for a merchant to charge sun
just or unreasonable prices" was held
to be unconstitutional by United States
District Judge Thompson on June 8.
The ground for invalidating section
four of the act, Judge Thompson
holds, is because its description of ""un-
just and unreasonable prices" is vague,
indefinite and uncertain and in viola
ton of the sixth amendment to the
constitution guaranteeing any defend
ant the right to full information of the
nature of the charge against him.
In declaring the section unconstitu-
tional, the court granted an injunction
to Lamborn & Co., sugar brokers of
New York, restraining United States
Attorney McAvoy and other federal
officers from issuing warrants for the
arrest of eleven members of the firm
on charges of profiteering.

Warsaw. The evacuation of Kiev
has been completed the Poles with,
drawing to the region of Zhitomtr.'
The American Red Cross workers, ac-
cording to latest accounts, had made
preparations to evacuate Kiev with
the armies
News Of the evacuation Of Kiev
reached Warsaw Saturday night which
was the first report from Kiey in sew
eral days. Just prior to the cutting
off of communication by the Bolshe-
wiki, General Rydzmfgly, the comman-
der at Kiev, sent dispatch that he
would make stand unless otherwise
ordered. With difficulty the Poles got
through personal order from General
Pilsudski, the commander in chief, to
the Kiev commander to evacuate inn
mediately.
General Budenny the Russian com
mander who fought against Denikine,
is bringing up reinforeements, the dis
patch says, but the military authori-
ties assert that the fight for Kiev is
not yet ended by any means.
The Polish forces carrying out or
ders to retreat to a new line of de-
Tense in the Ukrine, have commenced
the evacuation of Kiev, having pre-
viously destroyed the bridges over the
Dneiper, according to an, official state

statement says
Fighting on the northern front has
briught victory to the Poles, who are
consolidating their lines from the
Dyina southwark along the Beresina.
Before, evacuating Kiev, according
to the latest Bolshevik communique,
the Poles blew up the vladimir ca
thedral, the railway stations, the cleo
trio power station and the aqueduct.

PLAN TO ESTABLISH
REIGN OF TERROR
WITNESS AT sYNDIcALlsM TRIAL
5AREs PLOT TO OVER
THROW GOVERNMENT.
Former I. w. w. official Gives De-
tails of Widespread Program
Initiated BY Radicals Against
"Hated capitalIstic Class"

Oakland What Is believed to be
one of the most daring plots to over
throw authorized government and es-
tablish reign of terror and revolu-
ton that has been uncovered since the
red menace sprang up In the United
States was barred on Tuesday at the
syndicalism trial Of John G. Taylor
before Superior Judge James G..
Quinn.
Called by the prosecution to testify
against Taylor, Edward Alverscn, for
mer |. w. w. official and active in the
organization of the communist labor
party, gave details of a widespread
program initiated by the radicals of
Oakland
Murder, arson, abductisa and assas-
slnation of members Of the so-called
'hated" capitalistic class, were includ-
ed In the plot outlined by the ''reds"
to establish a system of government
favorable to their ends, according to
Alversons testimony.
A dozen leading men Of affairs, in
GLIDING politicians, public officials and
bankers in Oakland, were named by
the witness as persons selected for
Imprisonment as soon as the cam
paign Of terrorism was launched.
Alverson also declared that scores of
other people of the east bay cities had
been singled out, but that he was UNI
able to recall all of their names.
Banks were to be seized and their
vaults looted, the spells to be used for
furthering the radical program; news
paper plants dynamited; police sta
tons taken over and armories manned,
Alverson related.
The plans were so infinitely out
lined, Alverson said, that only one east
bay newspaper plant was to be left
standing once the reign of terror was
inaugurated. This publication was
scheduled to be taken over by the
revolutionists for dissemination OF
their propaganda.
"A red guard" nodded along the
lines of the famous organization in
soviet Russia and turbulent Germany
was planned, the witness disclosed
and with this military organization to
wage a campaign of anarchy and
bloodshed another group would take
over the reins of the civil government
according to Alyerson's statements.

Former Provisional President Shot
Down on Streets of Paris.
Paris. -Essad Pasha, head of the
Albanian delegation in Paris and for
mer provisional president of Albania,
was assassinated here Sunday. Three
shots were fired at him by an Alban-
ian student, two of which took effect.
Essad Pasha was emerging from the
Hotel Continental in the Rue Castig-
hone when he was suddenly confront
ed by young man who later gave his
name as Rustem Aveni and said he
was an Albanian student. Without
altering a word, Rustem fired two
shots, which struck Essad Pasha in
the chest, and another shot which went
wild. Essad died shortly afterward.
The assassin was arrested and de-
clared the crime was not premeditated.
Recognizing Essad Pasha, whom he
held to be responsible for the suffer
ings of Albania, he said he felt a sud-
den impulse and fired the shots. Rus
TEN termed Essad Pasha the "Alban-
ian dictator"
