zky, once powerful Russian leader
was reported in dispatches today ia
be on his way to Turkey as an exile,
The Turkish government agreed ia
give the former leader Of the Red
Army shelter in Angora.
A Jewish telegraphic agency dis
patch from Berlin quoted q leading
Soviet official" as saying that rum0rs
prevalent in Moscow indicated that
Trotzky had been seen In Tiflis on his
way to Batum.
Decision to Exile Trotzky was taken
by the Polit bureau, the most import
ant branch Of the Soviet government
Five members voted to Danish him
one abstained from voting and four
voted against Punishment. The reso-
luton was proposed by Trotzky's prin-
cipal foe. Joseph Stain, secretary o1
the communist party and iron mar
Of Russia.
An exchange telegraph dispatch
from Riga said that It was first pro.
posed 10 court-martial Trotxky but
that this idea was dropped because
/ Of the texafAx popularity In certain
circles. Those who opposed banish.
ment were understood to consider Il
almost as dangerous as putting Trot.
zky before firing squad.
The Berlin Dispatch added that
after the decision Of banishment had
been reached the Turkish government
was approached and Mustapha Kemal
Pasha informed Stain that admission
Of Trotzky to Turkey would involve
many delicate problems. He agreed
to admit the exile to Angora provided
that Trotzky were kept strictly with.
in the grounds Of the Soviet embassy
and was accompanied on visits to thu
city by one Russian and one Turkish
guard.
The Soviet government has declined
to issue an authoritative statement OF
the whereabouts Of Trotxky.
