thony Bimba, the boyish-lookihg ed
itor from Brooklyn, who believes
man made God, went on trial here
today, charged with violation Of the
Massachusetts 229-year-old bias
phemy law.
The public was barred.
1T was not God that made man,
but man that made God" Bimba told
his supporters at a mass meeting
here on the eve Of his trial.
Read the history of religions, ="
he said. land you will find that there
were many gods; every one Of them
was declared 70 be a real and mighty
god and all Of them have been over
thrown by science and experience.
and in their place new gods have
been established, and today there are
as many gods as there are rehg-
ions"
Motion OF Attorney Harry Hoff-
man, chief defense counsel. to quash
the blasphemy and sediion charges.
was OVerruled.
In arguing his motion, Attorney
Hoffman said: when the BIAS
phemy law was passed, conditions
were entirely different from what
they are today. At that time every
body believed in religion. Every
body believed in God. Because OF
this it was a crime to blasphemy.
Things are different today. People
have more liberal views"
The first witness called by the
State was Anthony Eudaco. the
principal complainant, who was
asked to repeat some Of the alleged
blasphemous remarks made by the
defendant in an address before five
Lithuanian societies here Jan. 20.

MURDER" AT RICHMOND
Mysterious Death OF Woman Inves
tigated-Suicide Indicated.

BIZ United Press
RICHMOND, Ind, Feb. 24.--Po-
lice today are working on the theory
that Mrs. Bertha Thomas, AZ, who
was found dead in her home here
was murdered although all evidence
points to suicide.
The woman had been shot in the
side and vial OF poison was found
near her. None OF the poison had
been taken, however, It was said.
No motive for suicide could be
found and the fact that a pocket
book in which Mrs. Thomas always
carried a large sum of money was
missing, gave some foundation for
the murder theory.
The death Of Mrs. Thomas was
the third violent death which has
occurred here in as many weeks.
