FOSTER DEFENSE
IS ORDERED TO
GIVE TESTIMONY
Instructed Verdict for
Defendant Denied in
Radical Trial.

ST. JOSEPH. Mich. March
%. - (By The Associated
Press Charles White
ordered the defense of Will
lam Y. Foster. of Chicago,
charged with violating Miehi-
Gan's criminal ~syndicallsm act. to be
gin presentation of testimony TODAY
Efforts OF Frank p. Walsh, chief
counsel o Foster to have the Jury
directed to return a verdict Of not
guilty failed yesterday when Judge
White overruled n defense motion
and ordered the trial to proceed. The
motion was presented after the state
rested its case.
Walsh argued that prosecution OF
Foster ia in violation Of constitutional
guarantees OF FREQ speech and free
assembly, tina there is no proof that
either h communist national con
vention or Foster advocated or taught
any violation OF the law while in
Michigan for the communist conven
ton last August and that Foster was
deprived OF the right OF trial by due
process of law because the syndical.
ism act is 81 vague n indefinite
that no proper information for
criminal trial could be drawn from IT.
Judge White overruled all points
raised by the defense and also held
that the circuit court could no,
rrope fiy=pass on the question OK the
constitutionality of the state law and
that 1t therefore would be considered
constitutional for the purpose OF the
trial.

EDITOR OF NATION
AGAINST MILITARY
USE OF AIRCRAFT.
Oswald G, Willard Would
Abolish Experiments With
Ships for War;

President Coolidge's recent state
nnent that the time is not ripe for the
holding Of an international air dis
armament conference is not in accord
with the views of the majority of COM
nentators who have replied to the Am
erican Legion's national poll TO ascer-
tain public sentiment in regard to the
question, according to Lemuel Bolles,
national adjutant of the legion.
Considerable difference Of opinion
is expressed by correspondents in re-
gard to the advisability Of this coun-
try's refraiping from the race in air
armament which the legion charges
is in progress among Frances England
and other European nations. advocated
by President Coolidge in statement.
Representatives Royal c. Johnson OF
South Dakota writes that he sees no
way to prevent the building Of com
nercial aircraft which may be made
Immediately available for war pur-
poses and that unless there is a limita-
ton the government appropriation
for aircraft must be greatly in
creased His view is shared by Rep
resentative Samuel E. Winslow of
Massachusetts, who writes: II would
like to see reduction Of anything
military in it's character which would
actually tend, in definite form, to re-
duce the possibility of war between
nations Meanwhile I want to make
mighty sure that our country is able
to hold its own in any contest which
may arise"
On the other hand. Oswald Garrison
Willard, editor of the Nation, who has
usually opposed the legion policies, In
indorsing the conference. writes that
because Of the ease with which COM
mercial aircraft can be utilized for
military purposes, he would favor for
bidding the use Of any aircraft for
military purposes or any experiment
ing Herewith.
There is no use limiting military
aircraft" his letter states. I'VE must
abolish all experimenting with air
craft along military lines, the devel-
opment Of bombing, pursuit machines.
ETC.
His letter suggests that the scope
Of the conference should be broad
ened to wipe out altogether the chem
zeal warfare services of the world. A
similar suggestion was made in a let
ter from Senator Holm o. Bursum of
New Mexico. who wrote that the utili-
cation of poisonous gas should be out
lawed
Only two letters received by the le-
gion during the past week expressed
definite agreement with the stand Of
President Coolidge that the time is
not propitious for the holding Of a con-
ference. They We're from Governor
James G. Scrugham Of Nevada, a for
mer national vice commander of the
