COMMUNIST.

Trenton, N. 1.-THE Supreme
Court Of New Jersey has ruled that
Section 8 of the sedition law, relat-
ing to membership in the Communist
party, is unconstitutional. The deci-
sion was made in favor Of Walter
Gabriel, who was arrested In Newark,
N. j., during the "Red" raids Of
January 1920, and was convicted for
being a member Of the Communist
party and for advocating the over
throw Of the government Of New
Jersey and the government Of tho
United States by force
The New Jersey Supreme Court
in acquitting Gabriel ruled that to
believe IN overthrowing either the
state or federal governments by
force could not Of itself constitute
offense against the laws Of tho
state OF New Jersey. ii
The judgement Of the court main-
tained that no party with a perfectly
legal purpose and program could be
convicted under the sedition law Of
New Jersey.
Attorney Rose Weiss, counsel for
Gabriel, said that most Of the 2S
states which had enacted sedition
laws had based them on the law
passed in New Jersey and the decla-
.ation Of the unconstitutionality Of
clauses Of the New Jersey act could

Brussels, Belgium.-Where is the

ask upon visiting the Maison du
People--the Peoples House--at Brus-
sells, which for many years has been
the seat of the Socialist Interna-

There is a spirit Of desolation
about the place. A political refugee
from Lithuania receives such few
callers as come from time to time;
a Hungarian journalist sends out
press notices spasmodically; and
Camille Huysmans, for years the
active secretary of the International
Socialist Bureau, finds bis work as
leader Of the strong Socialist fac
tion in the Chamber of Deputies,
and as candidate for the Mayoralty
Of the commercial metropolis of
Belgium, Antwerp, so absorbing that
he is at the bureau only occasionally.
There is no technical help-clerks,

The improvement, he said, is evi-

and as the export figures continue to
increase and imports decline there
are prospects, he added, of still fur
ther improvement. The wool market

Another promising feature, he said,

Pieces of Bones
Used as Evidence
In Landru Trial
Fragments Said to Be From
Human Skull Introduced
Against Modern
Bluebeard.''
Bx The Associated Press.

Versailles, Nov. 24.-Three more
small boxes containing what the
and the experts contend
are human bones, were produced at
the opening of court today and add
ed to the box which was promi-

the trial of Henri Landru, accused
of II murders and of cremating the
bodies.
The bones, according to the ex-
perts, are from a human skull or
skulls.
The defense argued that the bones
were such that no expert could swear
whether they were human or animal.
1t also urged that the second search
of Landru's villa at Cambais was.
conducted illegally.

Of human flesh and bones could have

From 220 pounds of ashes in, Lam
dru's back yard small pieces of bone
had been extracted which showed
they had been cut with a small saw.
the experts declared. The ashes, they
testified, contained 5 per cent of
bone or phosphate.
Landru explained the large per-
of phosphate by saying he
had burned small oyster shells and
that as coal was scarce during the
war, he had experimental in seeking
a new combustible.
Two hundred and ffty-six frag-
ments of bones, declared by experts
to be human bones, the weight of
which was two pounds and two
ounces, the largest fragment being
two-thirds of an inch square, formed
the corpus deficit brought forward
today by the prosecution. The ex-
perts swore the fragments belonged
to at least three victims, as nearly
two pounds were skull bones.
