drive 10 free him of the State OF
West Virginia's charge Of treason.
To better refute the States evidence
the defense must prove that the
youthful union leader was active
in the miners armed march on
Mingo. not in sanctioning the al
legged insurrection, but in using his
best efforts to avert II.
Narrowed down, that is the big
point the defense must prove TO
the satisfaction OF the jury in Judge
Woods circuit court in order to
remove Blizzard from the shadow
OF death-the punishment meted
out to traitors.
Defense attorneys indicated to-
day that hope in this direction lies
with Brig. Gen. II. II. Bandholtz.
u. s. A., who was sent TO the
Logan county battlefield to quell
the disturbance. Bandholtz is ex-
pected to testify late today or Mon
day.
Blizzards attorneys hope to prove
by Beneral Bandholtz that the youth
tul leader was in the battle zone
solely because he was ordered there
by the general to use his influence
on the men to stop the march.
Through two witnesses the de-
fense has offered testimony that
Blizzard was at Charleston, while
several prosecution witnesses have
testified to seeing him at several
other places where the armed min

with Blizzard at Charleston when
the defendant, according to testi.
mony, was relaying a message TO
the warning miners from c. Frank

them to disarm and return home.
Prosecution attorneys directed their
cross examination of Roberts in an
attempt to confuse his testimony on
dates when he told the jury he
had seen Blizzard.
The defense Is expected to take
about a week in presenting its evi.
dence.
The defense renewed its motion to-
day asking Judge Woods to direct a
verdict of acquittal. The motion
cited that the alleged overt act now
elected by the State "is not the same
as the overt act alleged in the in

The motion was overruled.

DEBT INTEREST
ENOUGH To PAY
SOLDIER BONUS
Congressman Shows How
Compensation Can Be
Adjusted.

Congressman William E. Andrews
Rep) of Nebraska, has submitted
to the House figures based on OF.
flcial reports to show that the cost
of the soldier bonus can be met out
of interest payments on the British
debt and a comfortable balance
left over.
Prefacing his statement with a
reference to the assurance given In
the British Parliament that the
debt will be paid and recent press
reports that arrangements are being
made to begin payments Of interest
this fall, Congressman Andrews
said:
The annual interest due on the
British loan, at AZ per cent, is
S207 ,527, 500, and the total amount
Of interest due for twenty years will
be $4,l50, 055. 900. The largest an
nual charge under the bonus bill as
it passed the House will appear in
1926, and VIII be $136,S25,00O and
the total cost OF that bill at maturity
will be s4.O9S, ,719, ,350.
"If the British debt should be
funded at ~ per cent for twenty
five years, there will still be. after
the bonus bill is paid in full, an
available balance Of $5,972, ,OOO.NOO
for our National Treasury.
Thus IL is disclosed that the larg.
est annual charge prior to l942
would be s70.000,000 less than the
annual interest due from Britain.
and that the total liability of the
National Treasury under the House
bill would be $51 100000 less than
the total amount of interest due on
the British debt for period OF
twenty years.
III the Foreign Debt Commission
should extend the loan for a period
Of twenty-five years, as authorized,
there would still be due at the end
