MOSCOW, March 5.-The defend
ant, Nikolai Nekrassoy, many years a
leading member of the Cadet Party
Constitution Democrats, a bourgeois
party, former vice president of the
State Duma, and minister in the pro-
visional (Kerensky) government was
put on the witness stand.
Before his arrest, NekrasSov was a
Board member of Centrosoyous (co-
operative organizations). He claimed
he worked Loyalty until 1923 when he
began his wrecking work under Petu-
MINIS invitation and leadership. He
carried out Petunin's orders in two
directions: Distribution o. industrial
products. Then he followed instruc-
tons along two lines, first he worked
contrary to the class line of the
Soviet power and the Communist
Party, and secondly, when following
this class line he practically sabo-
tagged it. Strong Kulak regions were
oversupplied with industrial products;
other regions were undersupplied. AS
a member of the wrecking organiza-
ton, he knew Zalkind, social demo-
crat, who gave him certain instruc-
tons about sabotage orders against
the policy of the Soviet Power. Mex
rassov confessed his knowledge Of
hese instructions, that he knew they
were given out in agreement with
the foreign Menshevik Central Com
mittee.
The president of the court then
asked him: What was the aim of
these directions?" To which Nekras-
soy replied: 1.-THE chief aim was the
abolition of the Proletarian Dictator
ship and the re-establishment of capt.
talist relations. My wrecking work
included support of the wrecking pol
icy by theoretical works. However, as
professor in the Plekhanov Institute
and other colleges, never permitted
myself to give the students false in
struction. Remnants of my conscience
prevented this. The wrecking worl
was financed by the Menshevik Cen.
ter. received money from zalkind
Petunin. I know the latter received
funds from Groman."

u. S. BAR AWARDS
MEDAL TO HOLMES
Associate Justice Honored for
Outstanding Work in SUI
preme Court.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
ATLANTIC CITY, N. j., September
1e.-The American Bar Association
awarded its medal for distinguished
service In the law today to Associate
Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes Of the
United States Supreme Court.
Justice Holmes, for more than 80
years noted for his liberal and dissent
ing opinions In the Supreme Court,
could not attend the convention due to
illness. Instead he addressed the fol-
lowing letter in long hand from Bever-
former attorney general of Massachu-
sets and chairman Of the associations
Medal Committee:
Writes Appreciation.
'"The unexpected honor that the
American Bar Association has done me
calls for an answer on the wings OF
the wind. But as have not quite
recovered my energy from recent pull
down, I avail myself of your permission
to rely upon the post office rather than
upon the radio.
1.-THE law tries to embody things that
men most believe and want. But belief
and wants begin as vague yearnings and
only gradually work themselves into
words.
THESE words at first cannot fully
express what they aim at. Some Of us
have tried to make clear what the aims
are or should be, using history,
economics and philosophy as our aids.
IF we have help to throw light upon
the general scope of the subject or
some part Of it, We have so far helped
our fellows along predeStined road
and have been Of use.
Struggle Not In Vain.
cit has been my deepest wish and
passion Of my soul to do something OF
this service and, although, as one draws
to the end, every human effort seems
small, the American Bar Association
has done all that could be done &c
assure me that the long struggle has
not been in vain"
Justice Holmes was the third re-
cipient of the medal, Prof. Samuel
Williston Of Harvard having been hon.
ored in 1929 and Elihu Root in 1890

POLICE TRIAL BOARD
NAMING DELAYED

the personnel Of the extraordinary

Since Monday afternoon the Com
missioners have canvassed the names Of
80 outstanding citizens nominated for
the proposed trial board by presidents
Of the principal civil, and trade organi-
cations and indicated from time to-
time that by the close Of the week
five of them would be appointed. An
nouncement was made today, however,
that the board would not be created
until some time next week.
appointment Not Urgent.
DR.. Luther H. Reichelderfer, president
of the Board of Commissioners, pointed
out that appointment Of the board at
this time Is not urgent as it probably
will not have anything to do for sew
eral weeks, If at all. The trial board,
it was explained, viii not function I'M
less the Committee of Lawyers recon-
mends that charges be preferred against
any of the police officers involved in
the Staples case, and there Is little like
hhood Of the lawyers completing their
inquiry for at least two weeks.
In the meantime, 20 District Building
stenographers worked away copying the
stenographic report of the Staples trial
in order to provide copies for the Com
nittee of LAWYERS. The committee
asked the Commissioners for five copies,
but there was only one available.
The trial record Is voluminous docIl-
ment of 1884 pages. Ten Stenographers
began copying the report yesterday
afternoon, some of them working until
2:30 o'clock this morning. AS the
committee is anxious to get the copies
as soon as is practicable, 10 additional
stenographers were recruited this morn
ing to augment the original force in an
effort to complete the work this
afternoon.
Seek to Economic.
The District Building stenographers
were pressed into service IN order. to
save money. The public stenographer
who took the stenographic report OF
the testimony offered to make the five
copies for $40.
The Investigative Committee plans to
review the Staples trial testimony be-
fore taking any further steps in Its IN
quiry. The procedure to be followed
after that has not been disclosed, and
Henry p. Blair, chairman Of the COM
mittee, is reticent about the plans.
