The famous case of Ernest Schleifer, labor leader, is scheduled to be aired in the State Supreme Court at New Haven on Tuesday, June ,, the date assigned for the appeal filed by States Attorney Arnon filling to the decision which liberated Schleifer, on charges involving radicalism.
 Attorneys Thomas J. Spellacy and Benjamin Slade who so ably represented be on hand to dispute the claims of the state as set forth by Prosecutor filling.
 The release of Schleifer constituted the biggest legal battle recorded in Connecticut courts in many years. Un- occasionally the most disappointed per son III the state at the time was States Attorney filling, who prosecuted as we'll as persecuted, the vigorous and in telligent labor Worker.%
 filling publicly denounced Schleifer even before the preliminary trial. The states attorney, who ordinarily Is un- pardOrably discourteouS to newspaper men. went out of his way to give pre- mature information of the case to the press. He showed every indication of being unusually anxious to ride" the defendant
 filings legs were hguratively cut from under him, however, when Judge James H. Webb upheld motion of the defense to quash the proceedings. filling was completely overwhelmed by the un expected action. Instead of seeing Schleifer carted awaS to prison in shackles, as he fondly anticipated. the irritable prosecutor of the high court saw the man walk out of the court room a free man.
