nouncement he had heard Davis
spent $150,000 more than was re-
ported, and therefore his creden-
tials would be challenged until
full investigation had been made.
Merely a "PreView"
This upset "Puddler Jim'S"
plans considerably. Photographers
and reporters we're assembled in
his office to see Mr.. Doak sworn
in. Mr.. Doak went through the
motions of signing a document,
but did not take the oath to up,
hold the Constitution.
Later, Mr.. Davis announced he
was still Secretary-that this had
been merely a "preview" but that
Mr.. Doak could go ahead with
his duties" until the Senate ad.
mitted him.
President Acts
Reporters sought information
at the White House. Secretary
to the President George Akerson,
disappeared into the Chiefs"
office. In ten minutes he re-
turned and said:
"At the request of Mr.. Davis,
the President is accepting his
resignation. effective tomorrow
(TueSday)."
But it developed that in the
meantime the Senate had con-
vened and that Mr.. Doak could
not take the oath until he had
been confirmed. Beginning to.
day, Assistant Secretary Robe
Carl White becomes acting Secre
tary.

FRANCE NAMED
IN SOVIET SPY j
TRIALS
Three Professors Say French
General Staff Got the Data
Given on Munitions Plants

MOSCOW, Dec. 2 0.NSO.-De-
spite a previous order of the
court, the name of u foreign
power was brought into the testi'
mony again today during the
trial of eight professors and engi-
neers charged with implication in
a gigantic conspiracy against the
Soviet regime.
Three of the defendants, Profs.
Leonid Ramsin and Ivan Kalin-
nikov, and Victor A. Larichev,
elaborated their confessions" by
telling how they gave espionage
information concerning the Soviet
munitions industry to outside in
terests, and specifically named
the French general staff as re-
cipient Of the data.
Mysterious "KR"
The information was given, the
defendants said, through nayster1-
Gus agents identified only as
"KR."
Previously, President A. Vischin-
sky, who is presiding at the
trial, had ordered that any testi-
mony regarding alleged participa-
ton of foreign powers in the plot
should be heard in camera.
Three other of the eight defen-
dants have voluntarily shouldered
blame for the deplorable state Of
Russia's steel, transport, coal,
chemical, textile and tractor in
dustries.
The trio, continuing last night
their frank confessions which
have furnished daily thrills and
amazement to a nation listening
in" on the radio, asserted that
by falsifying construction plans
and by confusing Soviet officials
with conflicting information,
| they and their conf AIDES were
able to put serious handicaps on
the progress of the five-year In
dustrial plan.
Rails and Steel
The three who resumed their
/ testimony under the questioning
of Nikolai Kirlenko, prosecutor,
were Prof. Nikolai Charnovsky,
Prof. Ivan Kalinnikov and Prof.
Alexander Fedotov. All three
formerly held important executive
posts in the Soviet government
and its technical enterprises.
The testimony this time Gen.
tered chiefly on the professed at
temptS of the defendants to sa.
botage the railroads and steel
plants.
Explains Tactics
Fedotov astonished his listeners
by declaring that in his opinion,
the Soviet government could not
hope to compete industrially with
the United States for q long
time to come.
He told of purchasing Ameri.
can equipment for newly erected
plants and discarding 1t for En-
glish replacements, primarily with
the idea of hindering the five
year plan. .. .
The sabotaging engineers, Prof.
Charnovsky said, even went so
far as to. advocate the introduc-
ton of heavier locomotives,
heavier cars and longer trains on
Russia's railroads, one of the big.
gest sabotaging acts planned.
This, the defendant empha-
sized, would have necessitated
the rebuilding of all bridges in
the country and construction Of
many new, calling for an outlay
of millions and millions of rubels.
The famous textile plant at
Ivanovo, according to defendants
testimony, was constructed at ex.
orbitant cost to the government.
