questions drawn up by the Department
of Justice
They were faithful copies of the
Lusk and Senate Committee questions.
The inspector seemed to hate his job
and laughed to keep himself in good
humor. "T suppose" he remarked to
Martens at one point, "if I keep on

Without having intended to, Mar.
tens made answer to one question.
"Are you the duly authorized repro.
sentative of the Russian Socialist

reading from the Palmer catechism.
"Yesi" exclaimed Martens, making his
sole contribution to the record the
one statement that Palmer has striven

When he had read all the funny
questions into the record. Shell an.
nOunced that the case of the Govern.
ment was virtually concluded. The
hearings were then postponed for a
fortnight, and Martens departed in
substantial possession of the thing he
had originally demanded-a copy of
the evidence against himself.
Palmer appears to have shifted his
position from the original contention
that Martens is a member of some
Communist Party, somewhere (Which
he is not), to contention that Mar.
tens own statements prove that he
is opposed to all forms of government
