SOCIALISTS
Albany Witnesses to Give
First Hand Descriptions
Of Russian Conditions.

Albany. ". Y. Feb. s.-First- hand
descriptions of conditions in Soviet
Russia by two witnesses lately ar
rived from Moscow are promised by
counsel for the hve suspended
Socialist Assemblymen as soon as
the prosecution closes it's case
before the judiciary committee,
which it is expected to do Tuesday.
These witnesses, the Socialists
safG today, will show that 3ussia.
INSTEAD OF being land of fterror
and bIoodshed. as it has been repre-
sented at this hearing. really should
be aided in it's fight for liberty.
They are also relied upon to show
that England was. enabled to steal
a march on American business men
in establishing commercial relations
with Russia by hoodwinking the
Lusk committee. which has been
collecting evidence of radical prop
aganda in the State.
1t has been charged by the
Socialists that certain important
commercial data taken from the
files of the Soviet embassy" in New
York was turned over to British
agents and that by reason of the
information so gained British in
terests were enabled to take advan-
tage of commercial opportunities in
Russia which it had been the pur-
pose of the embassy" to lay before
American business men.
The Socialists counsel say pre-
sentation of defense will take about
two weeks.

As Means to Check Reuolt

that certain German oncers and
civilians responsible for fiagrant
violations Of international law be
tried in German courts with inter-
ventlon sby the allies IL the trials
were not impartiaiiy conducted.
1t Is pointed out that In many
cases officers whose surrender has
been demanded acted under military
orders. failure TO obey wHsh would
have cost them their lives. onicials
believe that the group originally re-
sponsible for orders under which
atrocities were committed, together
with those German commanders
who instituted programs of fright
fulness" on their own initiative are
the men whose surrender should be
insisted upon.
A partial parallel for the pro-
posed plan Of action is found in the
orders issued to France by England
and her allies at the conclusion Of
the Napoleonic wars for the trial of
Napoleon's marshals.

CAR MERGER DEADLOCK
Talk of New Traffic Laws
May Pave Way for Bill
For Speeders' Court.

Congress is now called upon to con-
slider a quantity of District legislatio
pending before the House and Senate
Many of these bills are designed to
remedy Iong-standing evils in the ad-
ministration of District affairs.
Important among the matters which
will come up for consideration the
coming week is the emergency" ap-
preparation bill. introduced Saturday
by the Board of Education, which
provides for substantial increases in
the salaries of teachers and other
school officials in the District The
per cent. and are declared by advo-
Gates of the bill to be imperative to
prevent the Generalization of the Dis
trict school system and the loss of the
best members Of the teaching profess
sion, many of whom have already been
attracted to other and better paid
lines of work.
Traction Merger Deadlock.
The proposed measure to merge the
principal traction systems of the city
remains so far in a state of deadlock
in the District House Committee,
where during the past week a war of
words has been waged at hearings
over the method by which this merger
Ia to be accomplished. That a merger
must be effected in the interest of the
public is, generally accepted on all
sides. The proposal that has gained
most favor so far has been to submit
the question Of merger directly to the
Supreme Court OF the United States.
At present it is before the District
Court The difficulty has been to ar
rive at a plan to which the directors
and stockholders of the Washington
Railway e. Electric Company and the
Capital Traction Company will accede.

IarraiSned the bill as an unjust burden
upon the government and taxpayers.

which a much larger share of the re-
tirement funds would be raised by
Civil Service employees than under the
Sterling bill. AS discussion of the

A bill introduced by Representa-

Hear Trnnic Demands.
The Senate District Committee,
during the past week, has listened
to testimony from many sources on
the necessity of framing new traffic
regulations for the District. No bill
