To DIE
FOR BURNING
Of REICHSTAC
Dutch Stone Ma On Condemned
To Extreme Lgnominy By Ma
ri Tribunal.

LEIPZIG, Germany, Dec %. -
Marinus Van Der Lubbe, "a, was
sentenced to death by hanging to-
day for burning the Reichstag build
ing February 81. His four fellow de-
PENDANTS, all Communists, were ac-
quilted.
Slumped down IN MS chair, look
ing like a clothed animal, Lubbe,
the Dutch stone mason who proved
an enigma throughout the trial,
heard without interest the supreme
court verdict.
The four acquitted were Ernst
Torgler, former whip of the Com
munist party in the Reichstag;
Georg Dimitroff, effervescent for
mer leader Of the Bulgarian Com
munist party; Wassil Taneff, 36,
Bulgarian student.
They showed less emotion than
those packed away in the dingy,
dark courtroom to see the end of a
trial that may take a place among
the most famous of modern times.
None was actually freed Torgler
voluntarily gave himself into pro-
tective custody-putting himself at
the disposition of police as we'll as
taking protection against possible
attacks by NaziS.
There were reports that he would
be reawested and tried on the
charge Of high treason because he
is a Communist.
The three Bulgarians remained in
custody pending deportation as un-
desirable aliens.
Can Revise Sentence
Either President Paul Won Hin
denburg or Chancellor Adolf Hitler,
at his order, could revise Lubbe's
sentence.
The ceremony today, ending the
trial, was brief and formal.
Ped-robed Justice Wilhelm Buen-
ger read from the bench the ver-
dict:
THE accused Ernst Torgler, Georg
Dimitroff, Wassil Taneff and Bla-
goi Popoff are acquitted.
THE accused ManrinuS Van Der
Lubbe, on the grounds of high trea-
son in connection with seditious ar
son and attempted simple arson, is
condemned to death and perpetual
loss of civil rights
Buenger explained that Lubbe was
convicted because Of his confession
that he burned the building and
the fact that he was caught actual
ly applying the torch.

EDUCATOR |5
CHIEF SPEAKER
At INSTITUTE

"Critical Issues in Present Day
Education was the theme of the
closing address for yesterdays af-
ternoon session of the county teach
erS' institute held in the local high
school,
This topic was discussed by DR.
Elmer H. Staffelbach, professor of
education, San Jose State Teachers
college. Universal education and
its Importance to democracy were
expressed by the speaker who
maintained that the common man
is the hope of the country and that
he must be educated if the country
is to progress.
Difficulties of teaching without
adequate funds and the many gen.
erous acts of teachers in supplying
food and clothing for the needy
youngsters in their schools were
discussed. DR.. Staffelbach also de-
Tended the charge that teachers are
too highly paid and pointed out
that one objector was paid $4,000
yearly as a head of corporation,
salary so times larger than that
of the average teacher.
California leads the nation in its
educational program but this pro-
gram has suffered sharp reductions
due to financial retrenchment, he
declared
The afternoon session opened
with a series of delightful musical
numbers presented by pupils of the
Holtville high school under the di-
rection of A. O. Townsend.
