So much for direct sources of col
ored admixture. There are two re-
mote sources. A large portion of the
white population of America is de-
rived from South European stock.
Ever since the days of Carthaginian
colonization and onward through
Moorish and Berber invasions and
the recent influx of Senegalese
troops in France and Belgium there
has been a constant and continu-
Gus admixture of Negro blood. South
European immigration into Ameri-
ca has itself brought strain of Ne
gro blood into the American racial
composition.
Lastly, the anthropologists, Jean
Finot and Franz Boas, among others,
have asserted that present day Eu-
ropeans of all stocks are descended
at least in part from Negro peo-
pie who roamed over Europe in the
Quartenary epoch.
Thus it can easily be seen that
pretensions to race purity are abb
surd.

|MENSHEV|KI ADMIT
|. PUNISHMENT NEED
Former Trade Official Sobs
as He Relates Conversion
to Communism.
BY the Associated press.

BY the Associated Press
MOSCOW, March Fourteen men,
bers of the outlawed Mensheviki party
stood in bolshevik court today and
almost begged to be shot.
In this trial again paralleled that OF
eight prominent engineers tried and
convicted late last year. The engineers
all admitted their guilt and declared
that as a result of their plottings
against the proletarian dictatorship
they deserved nothing better than death
although most of them hoped for mercy
and got it.
All Defendants Confess.
All fourteen defendants made full
confessions today. The sensation Of
the hearing was the lengthy speech of
Michael YakuboYich, former assistant
chief of the supplies section of the
trade commissariat.
1t was a red-hot Communist speech
and Yakubovich's flaming whiskers, for
all the world like those of a bolshevik
in a typical American cartoon, bobbed
violently as he exhorted and gesticu-
lated.
"I was on the other side of the bar
ricade," he shouted. land now I am
on this side. The prosecutor was right;
/ should be shot. I deserve it and have
nothing to say against it. But in my
hour OF death it will be my greatest sat-
isfaction to know my heart and soul
are with the proletariat."
SObs During Speech.
The impassioned orator sobbed fire.
quently throughout the speech and was
crying outright when he took his seat.
In the crowded court room there were
many murmurs of sympathy for him
and it was generally believed he had
talked himself out of facing firing
squad.
All the defendants made laudatory
speeches favoring Communism and the
present government. reiterated their
guilt and declared they were ready to
give their lives for the country.
= Most of them asked leniency, how
ever and promised to devote the rest
of their lives to the support of the
Communist government.
So long did the speeches last that the
court was forced to adjourn tonight
before the last words were heard and
the hearing will be continued tomor-
row. The judges are expected to retire
afterWard to consider the verdict, but
it may not be announced for few
days.
